Most of you won't get this, but today, the text linux machine at work wasn't working and we were locked out of root.
When we finally got in using a live cd, i looked through my bash history and saw that i did this:
chmod 777 -R /
When what I meant to type was
chmod 777 -R ../
Two little dots and I locked us out of the entire machine, because it won't let you log in if the password file has the wrong permissions.
god i hate myself.
