here’s one that involves two victims… actually, multiple victims.
this one was used on me last night, i think…
find out a bank of pager numbers are, because usually, pager companies buy them in bulk, usually something like 242-1xxx depending on where you are, who they are and whatnot…
then, call the pager numbers and put in the victim’s number in…
i got a page last night, and when I called the number, an older lady answered the phone.
“Hello”
“Hi, did someone just page me from there?”
“NO! I HAVE BEEN HERE ALL NIGHT AND NO ONE HAS PAGED YOU FROM HERE!! NOW STOP CALLING!”

hmm…
An ex-co-worker used to be a big practical joker. The jokes were usually pretty stupid and rarely funny. Of course, he thought was the funniest thing to ever walk the earth. How did we get him back?
We got a role of clear reflective tape and put a wide strip across the back of his trunk lid and cut out the letters “Fuck the cops”. It took a couple of days, but he got pulled over. The cop wasn’t happy, to say the least! Several hours at the police station “cured” him and he never pulled another joke on us again. Downside: he had to have his trunk repainted. Well worth it.
I have never done this, but have always wanted to:
A so-called-friend of yours stabs you in the back, and hurts you deeply. Pretend to forgive them, then do the following:
[ul]
[li]enter friend’s bathroom, note what brand and size of shampoo they use[/li][li]buy a bottle of identical size and brand[/li][li]empty shampoo halfway[/li][li]refill empty space with NAIR hair removal lotion[/li][li]shake well[/li][li]smuggle booby trapped shampoo into their shower and switch bottles[/li][li]next time he/she shampoos hair, clumps of hair will be falling out[/li][li]Bwahahahahahaha![/li][/ul]
Go into Best Buy, Circuit City, etc, anywhere where they have a million tvs all showing the same thing, find the master vcr, insert porno, hilarity ensues
During one of our High School Drama productions (“Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story”, to be exact)… during one of the shows, several of the “techies” (i.e.- people who aren’t actors) stole all the actors’ pants. Since all the actors had costumes on, the pants were available. Bonus: Some of the pants had car keys in them, so when we were done with the show, several of the actors’ cars were strewn about the school… one was out in the middle of the senior lawn, one was in the middle of the hallway… it was amusing, especially seeing some of the crazier actors walk around with his loins exposed, demanding to know where their pants were.
Sorry, MSK, but Best Buy doesn’t work that way. We don’t show a video. It’s an actual channel we get beamed to us from outer space.
Now, the DVD display, on the other hand, is quite exposed… MWAHAHAHAH

Well lets see…
One my dad tried on me. Wait till said person is asleep. Put shaving cream or whatever foul substance your sick mind can come up with on persons hand. Tickle nose with string feather etc. Person will smear their own face with crud.
I got this little boobytrap thing.You would put it under something heavy and when it was lifted the thing would snap shut on a litte cap and go bang. Well I noticed that it would fit between the doors of my refridgerator. I put it their and waited and wiated and finally my dad opened the fridge. That is the only time I ever saw him leave the ground from something scaring him. Of course I thought this was very funny. He did not.
My favorite is the “Shaving Cream Bomb” (my apologies if someone already put this… I only scanned through the rest of the thread).
Basically, you need to get your hands on some liquid nitrogen and a lot of shaving cream canisters. Using tongs (not fingers… remember Terminator 2?) you dip each shaving cream canister into the nitrogen for a minute or so, freezing the shaving cream in its compressed state. Then you peel the can away and put the frozen compressed shaving cream into someone’s car. As it thaws, it’ll expand. Just a few canisters of shaving cream will fill up the entire car.
Just gotta get your hands on some liquid nitrogen which, if I believe my chemistry book, isn’t “too difficult to acquire”. I don’t know about THAT, but if you have a friend who’s a chemist or a doctor or something… that may help.
This little practical joke was done by my ex-husband to me, as he thought it was his right to do all kinds of practical jokes since he was born on April 1st.
He woke up about 30 minutes before I did to get ready for work–as I slept, he quickly changed the alarm clock to 3 hours ahead. Left the room, then ran in to wake me in a panic, screaming, “How could you have slept in so late?!?”
Never got ready for work quicker in my life.
That was one of the better ones. Another was he thought it would be a laugh if he got me blindfolded and tied up to the bed (naked, mind you). His friends were staying the weekend, and he decided it would be even funnier if he had them come in for a gander. But, I think this one belongs in a Bitter Woman Folder.
And, yes, I was a Farrell’s kid once myself. Used to go to the one in Cerritos (L.A. County), and the best part of it was the little candy/toy store in the very front. A birthday party there was absolute kid heaven.
I don’t think that would work. You have to let Nair sit on your legs for quite a while, and then you still need to SCRAPE the hair off. The time it takes to shampoo your hair probably wouldn’t be long enough to do anything.
another dorm prank, actually was pulled on a girls suite above ours… prank war involved the tidal wave(leaning a full barrel of water against a closed door to flood the targets room when opened)… the revenge was filling their suite with 300 crickets. Cheap to buy at any pet store, annoying chirping sound. They had to tell the school thatthey had a problem and exterminators sprayed the place.
I made my brother and best man promise that they would do nothing to harm the paint job on my car as part of the wedding pranks. They obliged, and instead filled the car with balloons.
“Harmless”, I thought, until my new bride and I tried to get in the car and all these damned balloons were in the way. We removed as many as we could so that we could actually get into the car and began speeding away. In what can only be described as a “momentary mental lapse”, I tried to pop some of the balloons to get us some more room in the car and discovered that a random number of balloons had been loaded with shaving cream.
One of my favorite wedding pranks is to take a short jump wire with alligator clips on either end, crawl under the victims’s dash, and attach the clips to the “cold” side of the brake switch and the horn. Every time the brakes are pressed, the horn blares.

On the Nair idea, I hate to sound like a spoil sport, but even if it did work, I’d hate to think what might happen if it accidentally got in the victim’s eyes…
On a lighter note, we’ve successfully played the same April Fool’s Day trick on our daughter for several years running. If you have a hand held sprayer on your kitchen sink, wrap a rubber band around the button. When the unsuspecting victim turns on the faucet, the water will come out of the sprayer instead. Of course, the victim will jump back in surprise, letting go of the faucet handle, and will probably be well soaked before getting it shut off. Harmless, but very funny.
Good One Robin,
We used to do that one when I was a kid. I’d forgotten all about it. (But it’s back in my repertoire.)
And as far as getting Nair in the victim’s eyes: 1) he’ll never have hairy eyeballs; 2) imagine the best looking person you know without eyebrows or eyelashes!
whew! what a sight!

University Pranks
During Christmas holidays practically everyone goes home. Therefore the rooms are open for pranks for the few who stay. I wasn’t personally involved but I know lots of people who were. They were all engineers.
Dorm one - Filled dorm room floor with dirt, lots of dirt. Next the dirt was seeded with grass. Grass was then watered and lights were brought in and grass left to grow for two weeks.
Dorm two - Door taken down. Door frame taken down. Built a wall where door and frame used to be. Painted new wall to match existing wall. I think you get the idea on this one.
Dorm three - Remove all furniture and place in elevator. Just leave it there, it will be fine.
Auditorium - All seats unbolted and turned 180 degrees and bolted back in. It doesn’t take as long as you think when you have five people doing it.
Teachers Car - You need at least 6 people in on this one and don’t get caught. Disassemble teachers car and reassemble on engineering buildings roof. You’ll need at least a whole day to pull this off. Engineers ingenuity definetly pays off on this stunt.
I know this is an old thread, but I just came across it and I thought it would be fun to bring it back to life. If you have any good ones to add, please do.
Here is mine. Buy two or three boxes of instant mashed potatoes from the store. Take them to a friend’s house and quietly slip away to the bathroom. Fill the toilet full of powdered mashed potatoes, and stir. Shortly thereafter you will have a giant mound of potatoey goodness just sitting in the toilet bowl. Just try to flush that one down.
Along the same line, if you are especially nasty, you can substitute the potatoes for quickrete. You can buy this stuff at any hardware store, and it only takes a couple minutes to completely harden. This results in a large concrete brick sitting in the toilet. Be warned, you will probably have to replace the toilet on this one, there is no easy fix.
Duh
Three siblings: 14, 12, and 6 years old.
The 14 and 12 year-olds tell the 6 year-old that she’s really 21, but she’s retarded, so everyone pretends she’s 6.
The 6 year-old denies this claim, saying “I’m gonna go tell/ask mom!”
The older siblings say “Well, of course mom will say you’re really 6. She doesn’t want to hurt your feelings. But you’re really 21. You’re just too stupid to know it.”
When I heard this one, I was 12, and, oh my lord, did I ever want a younger sibling.
On the surreptitious address change:
For real nastiness, and a double bang, you could have one person’s address changed and their mail sent to someone else’s address. Say, a co-worker (of the addressee) with a particularly jealous lover?
You guys would love alt.shenanigans!
1- I can’t believe nobody has mentioned the ‘bare wires of a capacitor trick’. This was my grandads fav. Charge up a capacitor, leaving the bare wires exposed… the next time someone goes to pull the loose ‘threads’ from yer pocket… zap!!!
2-This one is pretty sick. (never tried it, but know someone who has)
What you need:
-a penis
-some anti perspirant
-some one willing to give you a blowjob
Do I really have to explain this one?
Suffice it to say that future oral relations will not be likely to occur.
3- With a whack of glue gun sticks and a huge bag of pennies, I once went to town inside the poor guys pickup. I glued pennies to every square inch of every glass surface inside the cab of his truck, even the rearview mirror had a coat of pennies armouring it. The leftover pennies found more inconspicuous places to be glued, the back of his steering wheel, under the door handle etc…
He got me back.
Others will come to me…
