Sentence: Who knew when computers were invented that we could illegally invade people's computer systems and change our lives. Because I could hackdate my employer's network, I improved my performance scores from last review; gave myself a bigger raise and had warnings placed in an enemy colleague's file. And best of all, I am now actually only 29...oh, no, I am going to have to work there longer now...Bummer!
Etymology: Hack (fix a computer program piecemeal until it works;electronically invade a computer site or system) & Backdate (make effective from an earlier date)
