I just told this story to a friend but I did the standard rm -rf * as root while in the / directory. And this was back in the day where we nfs mounted every other machine and root privileges propagated through NFS. I think it was on the 2nd or 3rd machine when I thought -- "this seems to be taking longer than I thought".
