Has anybody else used their iPhone/iPod Touch Remotes for pranking?

I have!
I tell people i am going to show them the coolest thing with their Mac (Yes, i know it works on PC's but not everybody has iTunes [They should]) then I play their music as loud as I can, and (most of them) have no idea how to stop it!!

It is AWESOME!

Not yet, but I could definitely see the potential. Last night I was starting a song from the remote and someone was sitting directly in front of the mac and I had left the volume way up. They weren't expecting it and jumped when the music started blasting.

Lol, yes I thought of doing it.
Make sure the volume is all the way up, then go upstairs and when someone gets on computer, play it. hehe.

I meant to tell a random person that you want to show them something, then tell them to enter the code.
Sorry.

Umm. Duh I have.

Here's how it went...

Me: Upstairs getting ready to prank. Turns on some 'Sexy Back' (sister hates that song) on her PowerBook downstairs while she's on it.
Sister: OMFG! WTF! WHAT IN THE WORLD! I SWEAR THERES A GHOST IN THIS HOUSE!

She goes on everyday how our house is haunted.
