Easter Eggs and hacks, a word of warning

Thought I'd post some free advice here.
It seems, almost every bit of software I own, including (especially) games, will come with hidden easter eggs and assorted cheat codes or hacks.
For those who don't know what that means, and easter egg is what programmers do when they are bored. Just little useless fun things hidden somewhere that may pop up.
For example. One day while in the computer lab at college, the kids were learning a publishing program called Quark.
Suddenly one girl had a little alien marching across the screen.
The teacher knew about it. I forgot the keys you had to hit, it was quite the combination, but if you did it, this alien would start marching across the screen.
Then he said do that seven more times and see what happens.
OMG! A giant puff ball flew down and lazar shot the alien.
At that point he lost the entire class who were all gathered around her one computer.
lol. I can just see this happening at some magazine right before a deadline.
Ha... I play Age of Empires and there is a cheat code to make a tall naked guy who can run around the map real fast. It's a hoot.
Anyway, I did a search for hacks, cheats, easter eggs for this game.
And came up with TONS of sites. ALL of which offer some bit of software you have to download and install.
Well.... people, don't do it!
Every single site I found first wants you to fill out "surveys" or complete "offers" in order to get this download. I'm sorry but that is not "FREE."
And I'm not stupid enough to fill out my personal information for any survey just to get some "free" piece of third party software. I have a separate email account I use just for stuff like that. My name on that account is "die spammers." lol. So I tried. Never could get it to work though.
Now my kid has taught me how to find things in the form of torrents. So I found that thing from someone who already had it and downloaded it.
Only to find out it's password locked, and again..... to get the password is the same maze of first filling out "offers." BS! I gave up.
More searching found several forums where people who managed to finally get this thing, (which will enable you to instantly get cash AND gold.)
Well.... now a game cheat is one thing. But the getting gold is theft.
The people who make this game (and do a fine job of it) depend on us crazy gamers buying gold. So I can see why they would not take too kindly to hacked software.
And it's not too difficult to be discovered.
It will get you kicked off, and your IP address will be blocked for good.
Not to mention..... I also read (what I suspected from the start.) This software, and all those "survey sites" you have to visit, will only install bugs onto your computer.
(I have an old mac, not likely to get infected. Long story but it's just not.)
So.... if your curious as to finding hacks, and find ANYTHING you have to download and install, save yourself a whole lot of time and just forget about it.
All that being said, I'd still like to know if there are any cutsie (harmless) easter eggs written into this game. Any aliens? Naked guys? Anything? Anything?
Watching the corn grow gets pretty dull. A nice space ship making crop circles if you accidently hit the right keys might be fun.

But, yes I believe there is a GGS fun and harmless Easter Egg
And no, I won't tell you where it is
(I may never get off this computer.)
Wondering now what it is?
See what you did to me?
A space ship kidnapping cows!!!!
If you do ever find it, please please please give me a hint!
No, it's an 'easter egg' in the sense FlowerChild uses, and gives examples of, above. I've never come across an 'easter egg' that is actually and easter egg
wikipedia "In computer software, Easter eggs are secret responses that occur in response to an undocumented set of commands. The results can vary from a simple printed message or image, to a page of programmer credits or a small videogame hidden inside an otherwise serious piece of software."
That's the closest thing I have found... (btw, is the skinny worker a woman or man?)
Keep looking.

Hmmm
BTW RED pandas are one of my favorite animals.
You found another one??? Man, you're good! I have clicked my farm to death & found nothing
I have NEVER been able to just find an easter egg. Only way I ever find them is with instructions.
Pandas???? Fish?
I wanna seeeeee.
Thanks
