+A joke; To change the localization of all the distro from english to french: 
+# rm -fr *
+
+A real mistake made by a unix administrator on his workstation:
+He mounted with nfs a distant machine in /tmp and puts the instruction in 
+/etc/fstab. He does his job. Everything was working fine and the remote machine 
+was setup in production... Some days later, he reboot his workstation.
+The boot was long, very long... The reason was that rm -rf /tmp/* was done at 
+each boot !
