My new name doesn't have a middle name yet, so I'm accepting suggestions on what I could adopt that'd break as many systems as possible.
Obvious answers:
* null
* an emoji
* U+FFFD �
* half of a unicode surrogate pair
* EICAR
* some kind of prompt injection
* the entirety of DOOM, base64 encoded
* an illegal prime
* the source to decss
* 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0

@foone there a fun time when browser layout engines didn't handle a lot of the unicode format modifiers. I forget which code point it was exactly, but there was one you could just keep repeating and every time you did it would hoist your text vertically upwards by like 8 pixels or so. Repeat enough of them, and you could do things like make your text appear on top of other people's forum posts.
this was a fun time because you could just write DISREGARD, I SUCK on someone's post, mid-argument
Old versions of Java Swing didn't handle it well at all. I remember it looked something like a musical note when rendered by Swing. There was a multiplayer Go server with a Java client called "KGS" and you could spam that in chat and it would draw all over the whole thing, even up out of the chat pane all over the entire window UI
@foone okay hear me out. perfect middle name here
