And here I thought this thread was going to be about daemons which
monitor various system statistics and then send messages like:

"Hey You! Yeah, You! Wake Up! Will you enter a command or something?
Your shell doesn't have ALL DAY you know!"

to users (who, in that case, have been idle at their shell prompt too long,)
or:

"Hey Wiz... Do you normally take all day to read one newsgroup, or are
you just normally slow?"
