Petty SabotageI once put magnets on my brothers collection of ZX81 cassettes, so when he attempted to play them, they were full of errors and yet apparently undamaged. Can you beat that? Tell us your tales of petty sabotage.

German youth hostelIn 1990 I stayed for a few nights in Munich youth hostel. Unfortunately it was run by a bunch of arrogant rule obsessed anally retentative freaks. This was even more troubling for me because I had spent the last few years of my life telling everyone that Germans were really all right and not like that at all.
Every morning at seven someone would shout over the loudspeakers (several of which were located on every corridor) “wake up boys and girls, its time for your breakfast”. This was bad enough, unfortunately all the guests were also adults and very hungover.
So one night I took a chair and my Swiss army knife and unscrewed the plastic cover of the speakers, and cut the wires within. Me and my mates had a nice lie in the following morning, and then left before the handy-work was discovered.
