Title: I know it's early for this...
Post by: annguyen1981 on December 31, 2005, 08:19:07 PM
but what's the best April Fool's trick you've played on someone.  I haven't done anything the past two years, and I feel like I need to do something this year or I'll be declared too old for it (I'm only 25).

I need to get some good ideas to sort through and implement in time.  I only got three months for any BIG stuff. :)

Take a 50 gallon trach bag and slit it down one side and tape it to someone's door (has to open away from the bag) so that it forms a nice little pocket inside.  Then fill it with whatever...leaves, packing peanuts, moths...then tape the top shut.  Having a good seal all around ensures that when you rvictim opens the door there's a nice little vacuum to suck the contents into the house.


Dormatory favorite:  piss in a skoal can and freeze it.  You end up with a nicely frozen hocky-piss-puck.  Slide it under someone's door.

Replacing someone's can of shaving cream with a small can of cool whip is nice.

Chicken bouyon cubes in the shower head is a favorite of mine.

fill a coworker's overhead bin with styrofoam peanuts.  Place a piece of cardboard vertically against the opened overhead bin, fill the bin with peanuts, close the bin door and pull the cardboard out... then enjoy the avalanche when the poor sucker opens it up  :lol:

I work at a retail store, and last year, some of the assistant managers and workers collected lots of empty boxes after all the freight was done.  The night before, everyone took part and closed all the boxes and put them back on pallets, wrapped everything up and left.  In the morning, the General Manager came in and was PISSED!!!  There was about six pallets full of these boxes and he thought that  NO ONE did anything for the past two days...  That was great. :lol:

Bolt co-worker's toolbox upside-down to roof beam of hangar.  (Bridge crane helps)

Make clocks run fast by running master clock circuit on 120 Hz with variable frequency power supply.  Be home for lunch.

Don't throw away messed up measuring instruments.  Find a co-worker that has the same caliper/indicator/micrometer as your F'd up one.  Ask to borrow it.  A few minutes later, be seen by co-worker getting pissed off and throwing "his" (your F'ed up instrument) at the wall/floor/machine.  Enjoy the fireworks for a few minutes before giving his back.

Screw bosses's desk drawer's closed from the inside.

Jack up co-worker's toolbox, remove wheels, and put on cinder blocks.

There are more...   :lol:

My only advice:  Don't do anything that could possibly hurt anyone, cause damage to property, or hurt feelings.  It's not funny if the person you're playing the trick on isn't laughing too.

Be careful who you play tricks on.  Some people just can't handle it.  Don't make a habit out of it.  Once a year, fine.  Every other day, not a good idea.

Expect your favor to be returned.  (Shrink-wrapped GS cocoon comes to mind...)   :lol:

Not as bad...  People taking shrimp shells and hiding them, after a couple weeks they start to really smell.

Where I work, my copier machines actually hole punch the paper before it comes out of the tray.  I collected about a gallon of the little irritating circles in a metal tin.

Any ideas on how to make this "explode" and shoot the paper everywhere?  Keep in mind I want to do this indoors.

I've never tried this one but it should work very well in theory... If you freeze a cheap can of shaving cream (like old styled gilette) until its nicely solid you can cut off the bottom with a can opener and leave it in someone's drawer until it thaws and expands

And did you have a hard time getting the tuna out? :P

How about this one I saw Ryan Dunn do: Roll up their anti-perspirant  an inch or so and cut it off.  Twist it back down and pack it with phili cream cheese.  Then sculpt the end and put the cap back on.  It is called the sticky pits.

It works in practice, too (kinda).  They tried it on Cockeyed.com.

If you get a 12oz+ can it'll actually coat the interior of a small car.

Now I gotta say, even the piss-puck idea is one to be avoided.  Using bodily wastes as a practicle joke is lame all together.  It's like you couldn't think of anything clever so you decided to pee on something...

For some good ones, though...

Put a crushed alka seltzer or alka seltzer powder into the non-dairy creamer pot...when they pour it in their coffee it'll fizz like mad..

Jello in the toilet.

Take the persons, apartment, bedroom or office and cover everything with aluminum foil. Walls, ceiling, floor, pencils, furniture, toothbrush, bar of soap, bed, blankets, pillows, everything. Mold it to the item so you can still see what it is, except now it is covered with foil. i saw it before & was absolutly hilarious.

(great graduation prank)Chain up your principals car and put a giant pad lock on it so that the doors cant be opened and then as each student walks the stage hand your principal a key and let one of the keys be the one the undoes the lock.

Shrink wrap their car/bike/whatever.  I actually like doing this to random sleeping people at rest stops when I'm road-tripping.
~one time we had one guy this other guy to a tree under the impression that we were going to shrink wrap the pinned guy to said tree.  Then we started shrink wrapping them both to the tree.  The pinned guy managed to slip out but we still got one of them.

While cruising along at night on a roadtrip, wait for your co-pilot to fall asleep and find one of those rest stops with a semi parked.  Creep up in front of the semi at like 5mph and then scream OH MY GOD!!! and slam on the brakes.

I got more but I'm mentally fried at the moment....

Experimental evidence disagrees.  From the link I posted above, they got about 12 cups of shaving cream from a can.  Certainly not enough to coat the inside of a car or any size, but enough to leave a pile on the drivers seat.

Title: I know it's early for this...
Post by: makenzie71 on January 03, 2006, 05:57:02 PM
you can buy clear gelatin mix...jello's got a few clear varieties.  Toss a packet of the mix into their toilet.  After it turns to jello, there's only a few ways to effectively get it out.

Where'd you put the can?  I can imagine if would start to melt and slide down over the dash, console, and seats, if you had it up on the dashboard.  The ammount cockeyed.com got seems like enough to coat a largeish area, but certainly not fill a car, like some will claim.
Title: I know it's early for this...
Post by: makenzie71 on January 03, 2006, 06:05:14 PM
well it doesn't really "fill" the car...but it makes a plenty big mess.

We cut it up as soon as we slid the cylinder out of the can...one of the "discs" went on the dash...the rest in the seats and stuff.

That seems like a good strategy.  

Hmm...  I wonder how many cans it would take to fill a smallish car.  It's not like shaving cream is very expensive.

I can't imagine any of this is terribly good for the interior.  But I guess it is pretty much just soap.

FROZEN Shaving cream - Ok, I've got a theory and I think I'm actually going to test this one out. Shaving cream will expand as it thaws and the expansion would be subject to ambient temp as well as initial volume.

If one were to, instead of a frozen cylinder of shaving cream removed from the can, take the entire frozen can and punch small hole(s) in its surface wouldn't the cream be more likely to be flung further therefore creating more hillarity? I think coating the inside of a car is cruel, but certainly desk drawers, brief cases, backpacks or other small containers that could easily be coated...

Anyone tried it? I'm just looking for a way for it to be a little better than a lump of foam in a bowl as on the link above.
Title: I know it's early for this...
Post by: makenzie71 on January 03, 2006, 08:06:41 PM
Holes will not create squirtage...it doesn't expand that quickly.

I have done it to someone's desk drawer, though...that was funny.

empty it first.

Jello in toilet isn't that sharp a trick ... waste of jello ... pour in hot water and it melts and runs ... Shaving cream in car is OK, but the nest I ahve seen is ... insulating spray foam on a persons face and hands is just the nastiest ...
Cool.

spay foam in a locked tool box is very effective,  most boxes I've seen have a small gap between the drawers.  you attach a long plastic hose to the spray foam insert to the rear of the drawer and filler up!!!!  then you get the enjoyment of watching the person cut there tools out of the foam and dig it out of all the sockets.  I also shrink wrapped a friends desk once.  we shrink wrapped a sleeping warehouse guy to his chair,  then put him on the top shelf of the warehouse with a fork lift.   THis ones cool also but be carefull (may damage things beyond repair).  Loop 14 gauge wire over the rafters of a shop/warehouse.  clamp both ends of the wire in a co-workers cordless drill.  wrap a wire tie around the trigger and tighten.  the drill will wind the wire up and pull itself up to the cieling.  the problem arises if the wire breaks and the drill crashes to the floor from 20' up.  or post a married friends phone number on a singles looking for sex web site.

I saw kind of a lame one on TV..  Take someones ketchup bottle out of the fridge.  Squeeze it out until the level resides behind the label.  Put in a few spoonfulls of baking soda and put the lid back on and gently put back in fridge.  When the person goes to use it and either turns it upside down or shakes it.  The baking soda re-acts with the acid int he ketchup producing alot of gas and when they open the lid it expells almost all of the ketchup with violent force.

Or put a gallon ziploc bag full of pudding under there pillow and open the end very gently so that it won't ooze out on it's own.  then when they get in bed.....PLOP pudding oozes out everywhere..

or you could simply sneak up behind people all day with an airhorn and scare the shaZam! out of them..

I LOVE THIS ONE!

If you have a digital camera, take a picture of the toilet, then plug in your digital camera into a PC or TV (using TV-out) and get the picture on screen. When you see people coming out of the toilets, start laughing out loud and pointing. The person will come and see the picture and think you saw them in there!

my brother used to send my grandpa to the store for things like elephant ear soup and chicken ice cream.  Still does stuff like that but he found a wife who was very resourceful...he sent her out for groceries one day and wrote "super ultimate double nut crunch peanut butter" and she brought some back.
