While digging around in the Maya scripts folder (not the user one, but the big scary one that contains all of the scripts that define how Maya function), I discovered a fun little script from the Maya for OS X team.

In Maya, enter the following command in the Script Editor:

Manitoba;

Play around with the buttons and sliders and see what shows up in the Script Editor's history pane.

Nothing revolutionary. Just funny. user added image

When you click on buttons or move any sliders in the window, different comments show up in the history of the script editor.
