Reminds me of my first Unix account (on a DEC of some sort, in
university) where the default content of .plan was "Remain a dumb
user as long as possible".

One high-powered American academic *eventually* changed his to
"Find out who's responsible for setting up accounts and teach him
to be a kinder and gentler creep", but only after being persuaded
that legal action to get the sysadmin fired would not likely be
effective.
