diff --git a/.Stupid Shebang Tricks b/.Stupid Shebang Tricks
 Various stupid things you can do by using the shebang to select unconventional interpreters.
diff --git a/chronic-self-discovery b/chronic-self-discovery
 #!/usr/bin/env touch

 This file just touches itself when you try to make it do anything. 
diff --git a/quine b/quine
 #!/usr/bin/env cat

 Prints its own contents when executed; ergo, it is always a quine. Could also be done with less/more/dog.

 This one could be slightly useful in some situations (small documentation files and readmes?)
diff --git a/say-my-name b/say-my-name
 #!/usr/bin/env echo

 This just prints its name whenever it's called. 
diff --git a/say-my-name-forever b/say-my-name-forever
 #!/usr/bin/env yes

 This just prints its name endlessly whenever it's called. 
diff --git a/suicidal b/suicidal
 #!/usr/bin/env rm

 This file deletes itself if you run it

 In other words, it dies if you execute it
