so uh basically I wanted to hide my flash games so they didn't get deleted, so I generated a "maze" of folders (three levels of a-z, so 26^3 folders) and put them in a hidden folder

...shortly afterwards the disk filled up

so they couldn't work out why the disk was full (especially since I put them in a system-hidden folder)

I installed Firefox when we were only allowed to use Chrome (and more to the point, they didn't want us installing random software)

So they fixed the policy that let me install Firefox...
...and predictably I kept finding new ways of doing it
