Everyone give it up for the fella who ran a webserver on a teapot

I like returning 418 instead of 404 or 403 on the files the script kiddies are hunting for on my web servers. I'm sure it does nothing but I'd like to think I've wasted some of their time at least once.

I'm glad that error exists.

You had one chance to use 420 and you squandered it.

420 is still avalable. Not sure what you would put there ("Server too high?") and given the controversy over 418 I think its best to leave that one blank instead of making a weed joke.

There was an attempt by Twitter at one point to use "420 Enhance Your Calm" as a code to indicate you're being rate limited.
