Fun fact: I successfully picked the lock on a filing cabinet once.
Backstory: I was away for a month, and something valuable of mine was delivered meanwhile. The person who accepted the parcel put it in the cabinet for safekeeping. When I got back from the month away, they were out. I wanted my item, and they had the key. So... a few bobby pins and paperclips later, I had my item. :P
I kinda want to get a practice lock or two now; it was fun.
