@munchkinbear@mastodon.stickbear.me I had a reputation at work for doing stuff like this - it all started one day when I was sitting in the canteen, bored out of my skull on a break, and I changed the hotspot name to "MI5 van #16" and turned it on. In seconds, one guy stood up, walked over to the window, and stared out over the car park. "There's something going on," he said, "there's an MI5 van outside". People started looking around, wondering what was happening. He explained what he found, so I changed it to "MI5 van #21". "There's another one!" Someone else said. At this point, I'm the only person in the canteen not talking about the major operation building outside, which must have seemed suspicious! "Is that you, Stu?" The first guy asked. Quick name change to "Busted! Abort! Abort!", then tried pleading innocence, but couldn't stop myself from laughing. Over the next few months, several other people tried this, and somehow, I always got the blame!
