DIY Techno-hacks
Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.
Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?
Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

Back when I was A Bloody Student, my friends and I would frequently patronise Amigo's Pizza on Derby Road in Nottingham. Once, when waiting for our doughy junk food to cook, I leant on the arcade machine in the corner and received a mild-to-medium electric shock. Of course, instead of suggesting to the staff that there might be a problem with it, we started competing to see who could get the biggest shocks from the various exposed areas of metal. Cue lots of involuntary muscle spasms and groans of pain.
