Try entering the classic bash forkbomb (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forkbomb#Example_fork_bombs) on the unixkcd CLI (http://xkcd.com). You will get a whole basket full of easter eggs.
Better yet, try using nano, emacs, or vim to write a shell script with that program.

I think it was
su -c 'init 0'. By default, unixkcd does not have sudo set up. Only users in the wheel group can execute commands as root through su.

The forkbomb acts exactly as it should, but the other programs available are flawed in a humorous way.
