Practical Joke
There's nothing more satisfying than a well planned and executed
practical joke on your best buddy. Just the sheer simplicity of a
practical joke and the pending mayhem is so rewarding. But please keep
in mind some people handle a good practical joke better than others,
so attempt these at your own risk. We aren't going to be shelling out
the deductible on your health insurance claim because someone clocked
you on account of a practical joke you got from us!
Ride Damage Survey
This practical joke is best done to people who are truly anal about
their car, truck, whatever. The type that parks their car 20 hectares
away from the mall to avoid it getting touched by human kind. When
your buddy leaves the car, get your friend to place a note on the
windshield that reads "Sorry, about the scratch. We will take car of
any damage." and add a fake phone number. Then as you come out with
your buddy from the mall, and they read the note, let the search for
the non-existent scratch begin. You can help by point out "potential"
scratches, watching him or her run over to see, only to realize it's
just dirt. This one can done from afar so that you can watch the owner
of the survey for damage rather than you helping out, can be even more
hilarious.
I Didn't Type That!
Microsoft Word and most likely a bunch of other word processing
programs now come with something called "AutoCorrect". When a common
misspelling is made, it checks a list for it, and makes the
corresponding correction. Example, it would change "adn" to "and". The
magic of this is that it is user editable! Hop onto your co-workers
workstation, load up their word processor's AutoCorrect list, and let
your imagination run rampant. First start with the small, but most
aggravating ones by reversing what is already in the list, change the
corrections to the misspellings! Then move to even more humorous stuff
like company acronyms, people's names, it's endless! Then watch to see
how long it takes before they switch the blame from their own typing,
to the word processor, and eventually to their sick minded
co-worker... you!
Declined Funds
Superglue a quarter to the ground in front of a vending machine. Only
time-lapse photography could truly show the ingeniousness of such a
practical joke, but sticking around for an hour gives you a pretty
good idea of how cheap people really are.
Dry This
Park your car on a the street facing traffic, using a dark colour late
model domestic sedan adds to the authenticity of this prank. Wear dark
clothes and wear sunglasses and hold a hair dryer out the window and
watch in delight as car come squealing to a halt as they pass you.
Flash Gordon
In countries that use speed cameras, park your car on the side of the
road at night, preferably somewhere you can hide well. As cars pass
you, take pictures with your camera, the flash will lead the drivers
to believe they have just been caught speeding. Watch the glow of red
lights as they slow down after realizing they just got a ticket for
speeding. Too bad you can't be there to witness the months of anxiety
waiting for the non-existent traffic violation to arrive by mail to
all these "speeding" drivers.
Chalk Burn
Teacher or professor giving you a hard time? Grab their blackboard
chalk and drill a small hole straight down from the writing end,
insert a match, and fill the hole with a blend of chalk dust and glue.
Put the chalk back and watch the panic when smokes starts to spew!
Show Your Colours
Place a "Gay Pride" sticker on your homophobic buddy's car. The joke
only gets more amusing the longer the person doesn't realize it is
there. This works great for people that reverse into parking spots and
tend not to walk around the back of their car.
