baggy pantsing
 v.

   [Georgia Tech] A "baggy pantsing" is used to reprimand hackers who
   incautiously leave their terminals unlocked. The affected user will
   come back to find a post from them on internal newsgroups discussing
   exactly how baggy their pants are, an accepted stand-in for
   "unattentive user who left their work unprotected in the clusters". A
   properly-done baggy pantsing is highly mocking and humorous. It is
   considered bad form to post a baggy pantsing to off-campus newsgroups
   or the more technical, serious groups. A particularly nice baggy
   pantsing may be "claimed" by immediately quoting the message in full,
   followed by your {sig block}; this has the added benefit of keeping
   the embarassed victim from being able to delete the post. Interesting
   baggy-pantsings have been done involving adding commands to login
   scripts to repost the message every time the unlucky user logs in;
   Unix boxes on the residential network, when cracked, oftentimes have
   their homepages replaced (after being politely backed-up to another
   file) with a baggy-pants message; .plan files are also occasionally
   targeted. Usage: "Prof. Greenlee fell asleep in the Solaris cluster
   again; we baggy-pantsed him to git.cc.class.2430.flame." Compare
   {derf}.
