An '''Easter Egg''' is the [[Chocolate Rain|chocolate]] round (well, [[pedantic|oval]]) thing that is traditionally given to [[children|kids]] around Easter, which they promptly proceed to [[NOM NOM NOM]] on.

On the [[Internets]] and in computing in general and even [[old media|elsewhere]], an '''Easter Egg''' is a hidden thing waiting to be found in a form of media... for clarity, the official Easter Egg website defines it as "hidden feature or [[win|novelty]] that the [[programmer]]s have put in their [[software]]". Most [[NORP]]s don't know that these things even exist, and that the so-called professionals (who made [[Microsoft Office|teh softwarez that people use]] for [[serious business]]) like all [[asspie]]s need a little [[batshit insane|eccentricity]] in their lives, so they add [[gay|quirky]] little features in every fucking piece of software they make.

Whilst you could almost expect Easter Eggs in [[video game]]s, when most [[Microsoft]] products have them, you may start to think that something [[weird|strange]] is going on. Also, many Easter Eggs feature [[USI|a list of credits to the programmers who wrote the program]], because they don't get recognition from those who use the software because [[nobody cares]].

The website [http://www.eeggs.com/ eggs.com] has [[over 9000]] listings of Easter Eggs, in "[[software]], [[music]], [[movie]]s and [[moar|more]]". The website allows users to rate each Easter Egg in terms of how [[awesome]] (or not) they are, from [[win]] to outright [[fail]].

[[some argue|Their definition]] of an Easter Egg is that it is an intentionally included, [[maddie|hidden]], not a [[virus]] or trojan, [[provision for the disabled|accessible to everyone]], [[orgasm|enjoyable]], and put there for [[shit nobody cares about|personal reasons]].
 
Microsoft used to include Easter Eggs in their products, but stopped doing so in the early 2000s because they were [[pwnt]] by new [[law]]s against such [[bullshit]] being included in such widely-used software. They had mini-video games in them that were like, kinda, unwinnable and pointless.

Because internet users tend be really lazy, there are thousands of websites dedicated to list Easter eggs. Pretty much every website with video game cheats falls under this category.

What Easter eggs look like to someone who isn't a media whore

Normally an oval chocolate confectionery given to kids around Easter; on the media (such as TV shows, movies, and video gamess), an Easter Egg is a secret (such as a hidden feature or reference hidden there by the creators only to be found by the people pathetic enough to be scavenging them. Most normal people don't even know that these things even exist (as the term itself is very obscure); however, this may also be due to the fact that the only people who know and go around looking for Easter eggs are just as eccentric, lonely, and pathetic as the people who make them.

Easter Eggs on the internet

Websites can also include Easter Eggs (Google being a prime offender). And like all Easter eggs, they are just pointless faggotry designed to be comical but just end up inflicting the immaturity of the people who made them.
