# Forkbomb
# DO NOT RUN UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR COMPUTER TO CRASH
#
# This defines a function named ':' that calls itself, pipes its output back to
# itself, and runs that in the background. the ';:' at the end terminates the
# function definition and then calls the function to begin the chain reaction.
# A very nasty trick, indeed.
