Hehe, http://www.hacker-dictionary.com/terms/DWIM also comes to mind:
...
One day another hacker there typed `delete *$' to free up some disk
space. (The editor there named backup files by appending `$' to the
original file name, so he was trying to delete any backup files left
over from old editing sessions.)
...
It happened that there weren't any editor backup files, so DWIM
helpfully reported `*$ not found, assuming you meant 'delete *'.'
...
The hacker later said he had been sorely tempted to go to Warren's
office, tie Warren down in his chair in front of his workstation, and
then type `delete *$' twice.
:)
