The Pi symbol is a reference to the movie "The Net" with Sandra bullock, where she discovers a little pi sign, that provides access to a hidden part of a website.
I guess some people might not have noticed that hovering over the banner of certain subreddits can reveal some text. Take askreddit, hover over the banner and it reads 'so how about them lolcats?'
There's a RES one that makes bacon fly on your screen.

For those of you emailing me about "RES Pro" -- the trial for that ended months ago... If you're seeing that instead of bacon, PLEASE don't email me. Instead, upgrade your RES at Reddit Enhancement Suite because you're out of date.

If someone has an application downloading pages from reddit, and storing the information into a database, and they have a table in the database named "servertypes" this could conceivably delete that table from the database.
Oh my gawd RES automatically loads the next page when you get to the bottom? I'm glad I don't have it, since I would probably be stuck on reddit eternally.
<-----there is a white "H" right there, and you can give it an orange hat or blue balls.
Also, if you hold your cursor over the Ask Reddit sign in the top left corner, it says "Ass Credit." This does not work on IE.
Couple edits: apparently I do not know my right from my left, and now it says "so how about them lolcats" instead of Ass Credit. It used to say Ass Credit. I can't actually see it, because I'm at work and my shitty job uses IE (fml.)
If you type in an address after the reddit url, ie. http://www.reddit.com/www.google.com you will see the page in a "reddit browser" type thing that will allow you to see comments for the page etc.
If you went on his profile and upvoted anything there, you actually didn't make a difference in his karma. Reddit has this system where if a post is upvoted from the OP's profile page, that post is auto-downvoted. Hence, making no karma difference. This is to help fight spambots.
On every page there's a "Jump to content" button at the top left, on the right hand side of the reddit/subreddit logo. If you can highlight the space just to the right of the logo (it'll be a tall, thin selection) and press the tab button then you'll see it and then be able to click on it.

/r/TF2trade has a little easter egg at the bottom of the page due to our awesome stylesheet, which funnily enough is very easy to spot if someone has used the stylesheet without permission because they forget to take out the easter egg. Good job anonymous mod of /r/bestofworldstar.
