Get your boss to tell you to tidy up the paperwork lying on the floor behind the mainframe, then accidentally trip over the cables.

Will never forget that day.

Alternatively, chmod your / to your user and your system will need a reload for sure.

Or an oldfag trick is...

Code:
<body onload="open(this.location);">


Obviously, back in the day, there was nothing to stop this from.. well.. stopping.
