  My idea was a worm that just torrents random shit and dumps it on your desktop like a cat bringing you a dead bat with “I broughted you a pwesent ^w^” energy.

    Would be far more destructive on first world countries than third world countries

  There used to be a shitton of silly viruses back in the day.

    The “you are an idiot” one with the pop-up that runs away from your mouse cursor was hilarious.

  I wrote a “virus” in college, which basically:

  1. took a screenshot of the entire desktop
  2. displayed screenshot full-screen on top of other windows
  3. would only go away if you typed “@sugar_in_your_tea pwned me” or something

  Oh, and it started on startup, so rebooting wouldn’t fix it. :)

    bro I was thinking of this EXACT idea around the time you sent this message, how many more evidence do I need to conclude that this world is a simulation 💀💀

    I did one similar! Used autohotkey to hide the task bar at random intervals and pop up a warning that said “system out of memory”. Only way to get it back was autohotkey or a reboot. It would restart daily and on login so it would keep happening. And I hid it as “Nvidia game scanner service.exe” in the Nvidia bloatware folder so it looked innocent. Had a good laugh about that one

  I think that’s because most viruses aren’t made for fun but for a specific reason (i.e to steal money from someone’s computer).

  How about one that jumpscares you. Or replaces windows with Linux

    That’d be hilarious lmao. Just a “windows is updating” progress bar while in the background it installs Mint, complete with transferring users/passwords, then “rebooting…” BAM Mint.

    Idk how possible that’d be but a man can dream.
