Thats just horribly cruel

I manage an excel database / spreadsheet at work where my co-workers type various bits of data and the sheet returns whatever the corresponding info may be. For example, they type a loan number and it returns a borrowers name. For April fools this year I inserted a new table array with a random set of returned result something to the effect:

" File could not be found - please retype loan number 5 more times"

" Insert user name has corrupted database. All sites compromised - system will terminate all operations in 5 seconds"

"Security function enabled- Website URL scanned, 463 matches found text containing 'Porn'. Report uploading initialized

I had a good laugh.
