Amongst the many advantages of EVE that help to make it the game we know and love, is the ability to take myriad different career paths. Here, I will lay out some of those which might, perhaps, be considered somewhat less than optimal.
1.) Suicide missile attacks in secure space, with a Badger Mk.II
With its ultra-low base speed of 110m/s, there is a strong chance that you'll never get close enough to your target before he warps away, jumps, docks, or simply gets bored waiting and falls asleep; if however you should successfully engage him, the complete lack of any facility to fire missiles should prove a significant drawback.
2. Large scale freight trading in a Gallente Shuttle.
With its incomparable cargo carrying ability, the Gallente Shuttle makes it possible to carry a whopping FIVE units of consumer electronics at a time, with potential profits in the tenths of ISKs. A must for the would-be Derek Trotters of the galaxy.
3. AFK-Mining in a Thorax.
With five mining lasers fitted, the Thorax will fill its entire cargo hold in somewhat less than one minute - giving you just enough time to tell your friends you're going afk before you have to come back.
By following these career choices, you too could have a small fortune in mere days.... provided, of course, that you started out with a large one.

4. Try out your new electronic jamming equipment on a passer by in empire space.
You may be surprised how fragile your own ship is when ganked by the entire local police force.

7. Talk smack in local to the CEO of a well know pirate corp. Saying how you despise pirates and one day you will kill them all.
You COULD play it this way but should not be too surprised if a few ppl are making it very HARD.

As Orvolle is now 0.5, perhaps you could explain why this is still a problem.

Using a standard recruitment form with your own name as a default setting and forgetting to edit this to display the actual name before sending it out, offering said person to recruit yourself to your own enterprise. 
I blame beer.

10. Enter a race against others in a fully kitted hauler. Don't forget those expanders!
11. Rather than trashing all that worthless junk in your hangar, try to sell it on escrow for an absurd price. Don't forget that labelling it as "A Megathorn (sic) fully kitted" will help you get a quick sale.
12. Use all your cash to buy a cruiser. Make sure you can't afford to insure it. Kit it out with frigate weapons. Head into a low sec belt and lose it to NPCs (preferably frigates).
12a. Petition a GM about losing your ship. Moan a lot when you don't get it back, especially on the forum.
12b. Only EVER use l337 5p34k and profanity when petitioning, in order to encourage a quick response.
