Want to piss off your friends? Here is my list of the top five keyboard shortcuts to use on people. (these will only work on Windows computers)
1) Ctrl+Alt+Down Arrow — This key-command will rotate your monitor 180 degrees, it can be very funny to watch someone go to login to a computer and find the screen facing the wrong direction. Unfortunately this will only work on computers with Intel graphics chipsets.
2) left ALT+left SHIFT+PRINT SCREEN — This shortcut will turn on the high contrast visibility setting on any given computer. This is a good way to confuse and piss of people.
3) Alt+F4 — This command is very well know and won’t always work, but if you can find a newbie doing something important having their program close on them can be very entertaining.
4) Windows Key+M — If Alt+F4 fails this command may still be able to do a similar job, instead of closing the active program this command minimizes all open programs.
5) Windows Key+ D then Alt+F4 then Enter — This can be very funny and get you seriously hurt, but it will do a good job of shutting down any version of windows.
