I had a coworker that was freaked out about xeyes, so we found out his root password and would ssh into it and start xeyes to stare at him. At first we'd take turns randomly starting just one, like on a conference call or just while he was intently staring at the screen. Eventually we just started filling his screen with them suddenly.
This is my first time hearing of xeyes... if those started appearing all over my screen I'd probably freak out too.
What about xroach? :)
I forgot about xroach. That was some creepy shit. I don't think we ever used it in this guy. He just made the mistake of mentioning xeyes creeped him out one time so we ran with it ๐
The four of us were all single and drinking buddies back then so we all got licks on each other one way or another back then.
