So, what are some of the evil, devious, little annoying pranks that you have recently played?
I’ve done a couple.
For someone you defiently do not care for, sign their email address up on a porn mailing list. Preferebly for the gender that is opposite which they are attracted to.
I just did this one today. I got some junkmail from the “Purple Shield” people. They sell funeral insurance. If you send back a mailer they enclose with it, they will send you a complimentary book mark that doubles as a magnifying glass. On the mailer, I totally bastardized a co-workers name and put our office address in it and mailed it out. He has a pet peeve of people not spelling his name correctly, and this one is bastardized os so terribly. I’m also betting he is now going to be put on several mailing lists so the fun will never stop. It’ll be good for a few laughs when we go through the mail in the AM (Yes, we have really simple pleasures).
I always loved Adrian Plass’s post office queue prank. Basically, when the queue moves forward, you don’t. This leaves the people behind you melting with inexpressible aggravation, despite the fact that your actions are actually entirely harmless. No-one will be any closer to getting served if you move forward. You just stand there. Talking to someone, if possible.
I’ve only done this only once and almost did it today, and plan on doing it some more in the future, I’m so mean:
At about nine in the morning is when a flood of college kids start coming to school for their 9:10 class. 9:00 is usually when I get out of my first class and either A) Go home or B) put some stuff in the backseat of my car (depends on what day it is). Either way, I’m at my car and in it at some point. Sometimes there are cars behind me, waiting for me to leave because I get one of the best spots everyday just short of a Faculty spot up front (I get there real early), and the Lot I’m in (Lot 2) is usually packed by this point. What I’ll do (on the days when I don’t leave), I’ll get into my car and start it up and make it look like I’m leaving. But then I’ll shut my car off, get out, lock the doors, and walk away. I giggle like a maniac. I almost did it today, when leaving, but I had to leave to meet up with a friend (yes, that early in the morning). Maybe I’ll do it tomorrow.
Forget the funeral junk mail… sign your office buddy for a Bridal magazine. It’s the gift that keeps on giving, because in about 2 years, he will start getting tons of child-related material.
Simple Monday morning office prank with a co-worker that will, no doubt, escalate into full, nuclear warfare by Friday.
I went into his Microsoft Word program and arranged the Auto Correct function to substitute his name with the phrase “The Drooling Sheep Sodomizer”. Several companies and organizations that he corresponds with were switched to “National Organization For Reform Of Marijuana Laws” and “Harpoon A Whale For Christ”.
Nothing extraordinary, but soon the war will begin…
someone did that to me, i eventually had to change email addresses because 100 (no im not exagerating) spam emails every freakin day make it difficult to read anything important, like assignments from teachers…
