I've been thinking of playing host to a few pranks next semester. It's been one heck of a first semester, and I want to blow off some steam. Plus the fact that I'm scaling back on the difficulty of my classes, I think I'll have some free time to pull a few capers.

Anyone have any ideas? This topic doesn't have to be just about me. Feel free to post some of the best pranks you've heard or done, and the consequences if you see fit. I'll post some when I can think of a few good pranks.

A good one to do is to get a picture of a person (friend is better due to possible harm), and make it into a sign. Something to the likes of "Wanted for molestation of small farm animals" or something like that. Then post it all around campus where they will be sure to see it. After they think they got all of them down, make sure you post one at a store they frequent, or somewhere they least expect it (the grill of their car works wonders). They should get a good laugh from it, and the chuckle will have been well worth the future ass beating. I did this to one of my co-workers back in '03 and he's still finding the flyers. Good times.

There's more, but let me remember them correctly first.

if you know someone who is a heavy sleeper, and sleeps during class, start super gluing stuff to them, make sure it is real funny stuff tho

any construction work going on nearby? if so get down there and tell the workers that a few students dressed as cops are going to try to stop them working. then call the cops and say that theres students dressed as construction workers digging up the road (or whatever). sit back and watch the fireworks.

Well, I do have a few classic ones like saran-wrap on public toilets, Tabasco sauce on comp-lab chairs (when it dries, makes a fine powder and seeps through pants and itches like crazy), dish soap in fountains, sticking previously pierced tuna cand under desks and the likes, vaseline on door knobs, dry ink in public hand dryers in washrooms... But the one signature prank we did back in college needs a lot of time to pull off

October 31/ November 1st:
Go around a few blocks of houses picking up pumpkins left over from halloween, carefully writing which house you've picked it up at. Transport said vegetables to a field or isolated area. Then we wait... ... wait, don't rush this... ... No, not yet... ... ... you realy are an impatient one... ... Allright, Spring is here, no more snow on the ground. Time to bring back what you "borrowed" to their rightfull owners. You just can't immagine the stench

[renagator]

well there is one simular to the saran-wrap on public toilets, but with a little twist. Get some jello that when in the hello form is clear then dump it in to the tolit and wait for about 4 hours and pour water on the jello to make it seem as if water was still in the bowl. The image is as you could expect.

This is one I've actually done, and its way too typical of high school seniors, but we couldn.t resist.

Industrial width/strength saran wrap, like the kind used wrapping pallettes in stores, to start with works better cause it's harder to rip. next, you pick out someone, a freshman in our case(like i said typical) who'd take it well, and we knew he would. Took 5 people for full effect. One was video taping, 2 were holding, and 2 had salon strength battery powered hair dryers on high heat. Simply put: we shrinkwrapped a freshman from knees to shoulders and left him in the middle of the main hallway between classes. Couldn't stop laughing

here is one that is very bad and i'm saying ti cuz its funny to think of but doing it is something else:

when you see a dog owner leave his dog in the car while he goes to the mall and leaves the window just a little open for the dog to breath, take some laxative tablets, put them in some chewy food for dog, and put it through the window. You can imagine the result. It just sucks for the dog cuz laxatives are not fun and the owner could beat it up if he was a jerk.

You can also scan and print 100$ bills, but print them just one side. Then go the toilet at your school/work and get all your friends/colleagues to pee in the same toilet, and place the bill printed side up in the toilet. Wait for boss to go to bathroom. (Done it)

Here's a fun prank my dad did but cannot be reproduced easily as it is too contextual and necessitates equipement:

His company was building hydro-electric digs in northen quebec so ppl used small planes/helicopters to go and inspect or carry stuff around. He had a consultant on his team who was ahorrible human being and was really fat (not that its a bad thing, but it matters for the prank)

So one day when they were shipping stuff via helicopter to a remote location and shipping the consultant there on the same occasion, they used those metal rods you put inside cement walls, used a press to bend them like arcs, and then used them to pin the helicopter to the ground. Basicaly the helico was glued to the ground. So the guy gets in with the materials, and the pilots tries to take off. Can't. Unload some stuff, retries, can't, unload soem stuff.. repeat until only fat asshole is left. Pilot has to tell fat asshole he's too fat for the copter.

k, get a bunch of dry ice, and put them in a toliot, NEEDS TO BE DONE WHEN NO ONE ELSE IS THERE, while doing this if there is someone who lives near said bathroom that is a jerkass, get some friends to give me some laxatives, so the he runs into the battheroom, lock the dry ice toilet so that noone gets hurt when is explodes
now while he did that, if he left his door open enough so that you and your friends can get into there, mess with all his stuff, hide stuff, put laxatives in leftovers, put some dry ice under his bed, just mess with everything you can

you could always post an add selling you school in the local newspaper (I know its been done before) but it's always good for a laugh, just make it sound like a really nice house. Be sure to post the dean/principals home phone as call back number

[FlashbombJester]

I'm not necessarily recomending any of these, but here's some of what I've got

greasing the floor of a tile hallway, use lotion, vaseline, whatever.

Super-gluing a quarter to the floor. watch the idiots try to pick it up... so funny.

Get some white-chocolate, and melt it into an empty deoderant stick... then, go into a public place, and start eating your deoderant with gusto!!

pee in someone's soda

If you're in band, switch around someone's valves/ steal their mouthpiece when they're not looking

One of the simplest one's I've heard anywhere was the old sugar in the gas tank trick. Only instead of actually putting any sugar in the gas tank, you just open their tank door and remove the cap and then leave an empty, or mostly empty, bag of sugar next to the car. They'll freak out and either drive to the shop or have the car towed there only to find out there's nothing wrong with it. I just love the psychological value of that one.

my wrestler friends told me a good one to mess with freshmen. they always went to a tournament where they stayed a few days overnight in hotels or w/e, so they are basically there by themselves to mess with each other.
what they did is tell a freshman that it's impossible to do a sit-up when everyone is slapping the floor drumroll-style because of some bullshit to do with the vibrations (make up something scientific-sounding for effect). I forget how he put it, but you have to give some reason to blindfold them as well. then one of the stronger or fitter guys would pretend to try real hard to do it and not be able to. Frosh says he could do it easy, then gets in position blindfolded. it is at this point that the fattest guy on the team gets in a squatting position above them and bares his ass. when the team starts pounding the floor and the guy sits up, he gets a face full of ass!
gives new meaning to the term brown noser.

A friend of mine works for the convenience store chain on campus, aptly named "Sparty's." At dinner an acquaintance of mine was planning on running into the store while my friend worked and act panicked, looking for condoms (the condom-seeker is the least likely person out of everyone in my circle of friends to have sex). After dinner, I visited my friend at Sparty's to chat and told him about the condom plan. I got the idea to turn the tables on the condom-seeker. Here's what the brief dialogue may be:

"Do you have any condoms!?"

"Sorry, sir. We're sold out of the normal condoms. But we do have this one." *holds up a BIC ballpoint pen cap* "I think it'll fit you."

"Super-gluing a quarter to the floor. watch the idiots try to pick it up... so funny."

oh yeah....


i actually passed this one off as a 'human behavior' experiment for my major year 12 biology assignment. didnt do too badly either.

i glued down a dollar coin (yes we use m-e-t-a-l dollars here in crazy australia) and then watched for an hour. no, i couldnt help from laughing. one was at a big shopping centre/cinema/restaurant area, in a major thoroughfare, and the other was outside a train station entrance in a poor area. yeah, results as you'd expect, the poor guys wanted the dollar more, and when i went back later that day, someone had actually managed to pry it up outta the pond of superglue i covered it with, something i couldnt manage even with my fancy glue solvent.

long story short, dont dismiss pranks as idle amusement at the expense of others when they could be earning you academic prestige

(jebus, i STILL cant believe i got away with it!)

if you take phsycology you can pass a lot of things off as schoolwork

While I'm back home for Christmas break, I think I'll try this one:

There's someone I know who's a real dickhead. Not many people like him around the fire department. He drives a Jeep Wrangler that has definitely seen better days. Taking a page from Rayne's Urchin, I'm going to steal the drive tires (rear-wheel) off his Jeep and hang them in the hose tower. The only problem will be if he decides to put it in four-wheel drive while he's without rear tires and goes crashing to the ground.

Or I could get jacks or cinderblocks and very slightly lower his Jeep off the ground at all four tire points. He won't be able to move, even after putting the car in four-wheel drive.

[sexydude]

ya, lift his car so that the wheels are just barely off teh ground, so that they appear to be touching but aren't, and it will really mess with the guy
