I need help. I am battling for the ultimate prank with some of my co-workers. There have been some pretty good ones so far, and I was the last at bat. That means I am on the defensive now and need to be ready to strike again. Anything that does not cause pain, permanent damage or humiliation will be appreciated.

**** VERY LONG FILE!!!! ...BUT ITS GOT LOADS OF PRACTICAL JOKES ***



I apologize in advance for posting such a large article, but this thread

has been going on for some time, so there must be some interest...and the

last guy who said he had this got 20,000,000 email requests for it, so

here 'tis...



Now, to receive your millions, just mail this two twenty friends, have

them mail it to.... :-)



--=] ...got this from some Bergen University guy, address at end.



==========================================================================

THE ULTIMATE LIST OF PRACTICAL JOKES

==========================================================================

One joke that we did in residence was the Chinese Fire Drill,

I don't quite know why it is called that. Anyway..



The victim is on the pot in the dorm washroom. Everyone grabs a bucket

(we used the waste baskets from our rooms) and fills the buckets with

water. Take a paper bag and set it on fire, toss it under the door into the

stall. Yell fire as everyone tosses the water into the stall. Needless to say

the fire as well as the victim get very wet.



This one fellow in the house was hit a number of times and took to relieving

himself in other locals. We followed him a couple of times and nailed him

in many parts of the residence.



Later of course we conspired with our victim to get back at the

original instigator of the drill. The guy in the stall had a bucket of water,

and when the the instigator tossed the bag in we all hit him.

It is common for draftsmen to sprinkle SCUMEX (powdered rubber

eraser) on tracings prior to doing any drawing on it. This reduces

smearing of the pencil marks and such and results in a cleaner

tracing.



At a former employers we had replaced the Scumex at one draftsmans

desk with dried parmesian cheese. It looked about the same. It was

extremely interesting watching him draw for a while and then begin

to smell the paper. Took the poor dude almost 10 minutes to guess

that he had been gigged!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



I just pulled one on somebody -- I slipped some of those anti-

shoplifting strips into the lining of the victim's favorite

jacket. I was set to pull another one, but didn't get the chance

- to cut out a silhouette of a gun from metal and hide it in a

piece of carry-on luggage.

Two teachers at my high school started a practical joke war

that culminated in a junk mail war of huge proportions. They

finally called a truce and got it cleared up and the mail stopped,

EXCEPT for the military mail that one had signed the other one up

for. He wrote (honestly) that he had graduated from a fine college

and was interested in the Marines, Air Force, etc. etc.

When I left, about two years after this, he was still

getting PHONE CALLS from 2-4 times a month.... they were VERY

persistant even over he (loud) objections that he was 45 and not

interested in a career change...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



New secretary (second day on the job) answers telephone as is told in

official tones: "This is the phone company. We are testing a new

circuit wiring scheme in your offices. Please keep everyone off the

phones for the next 10 minutes. We will be verifying the correct wiring

of your system by passing HOT STEAM through the wires. Instruct your

employees to place their phones on the floor, or, better yet, wrap them

in towels to avoid scalding themselves. We will advise you when the

tests are complete $click$" After momentary panic, the secretary begins

a frenzied "Paul Revere" routine, running from desk to desk while

glancing frequently at her watch. Just as the 10 minutes are about up,

she bursts into her boss's office (while he is in the midst of an

important long-distance call) and, screaming, grabs the receiver from

his hand and flings the whole phone under his desk...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Tell someone you can pin a glass of water to the wall --

a real glass, not a paper cup, using an ordinary straight

pin. Naturally they won't believe, so you set out to

prove it.



Get a glass of water and a pin. Hold the glass up to the

wall and start to pin it up. And then drop the pin.

You've got the glass in position just right, so you ask

your victim real nice to get the pin for you. When they

bend down to pick it up, dump the water on their head.



This works especially well when there's a crowd of people watching.

It can also be very dangerous for the joker, so be careful if you

try it.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



one time in my undergrad days, it was snowing like mad

out. someone decided it was time a make a snowball. then

someone else suggested that we should put this snowball in

this one guy's room-- nobody liked this guy-- so when the

word got around, half the people in our dorm section came

out and help! we got this sucker so BIG that it must be

at least 4 feet in diameter. it took about 6 person to haul

the darn thing up 3 flights of stairs. we got the snowball

into this guy's room while he was out, turn off the heat in

the room and left all the windows open, so the snowball

won't melt too fast. well... the turkey came back 3 hours

later and found a HUGH snowball sitting in the middle of his

room, and started melting! I still have the picture of the

snowball. (if you really wonder how big the snowball is,

just imagine a snowball the size of a normal dinning room

chair!)



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



This reminds me of a similar stunt we used to enjoy at the dining hall

in my undergrad days. The food service used opaque plastic salt and

pepper shakers with pop-off tops that could be pried off with a knife

blade if you were persistent enough.



PREPARATION (in a restroom nearby): (1) Empty salt ( or pepper) from a

previously 'acquired' container and fill about 1/3 full with

concentrated lemon juice. (2) Place a thin tissue across the opening,

poke it down a bit to form a depression, and fill the depression with

about a teaspoon of baking soda. (3) Cover (from the inside) the

holes of the top with tape of the appropriate color. (4) Replace top

on container and trim visible tissue from around the top.



Carry the device to dining hall (upright and as stable as is

possible... for your own sake).



After discretely placing the shaker on your table (only place it near

to you... see caveat \#1 below), observe the next person to use the

salt (pepper). (S)He will shake lightly at first, then harder as

nothing comes out. Due to the breakdown of the tissue and the pressure

resulting from the classic acid/base reaction, the top will pop off

(quite spectacularly) amidst a shower of foam. Your victim (as will as

everyone around) should have quite a reaction, since one does not

usually observe this type of behavior in a salt (pepper) shaker!



CAVEATS: 1. The top will come off with some force. If the holes are

sealed well, this will happen on about the second or third shake.

Once, though, due to poor sealing, it took about 5 seconds, during

which time our victim started looking at the shaker to examine the

"foamy stuff coming out" of the holes... we quickly grabbed the shaker

from her to direct the top towards the ceiling before it went off. So,

watch carefully!



2. The "foam shower" (lemon juice \& soda) may ruin you victim meal...

be prepared to pop for another one.



3. Don't do this if your victim or anyone near ground zero is dressed

up (this joke will flop at board meetings and the like).



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



This joke has been done 50 (yes, 50) years ago by my father-in-law.



First, a little background:



He lived in a small village, north-west of Quebec City along the St-Laurent

river. In those days, toilets were located outside the house in what

we call in good ol' french canadian 'becosse', from 'back house' I think.

These are a little wood shack with no floor over a hole in the ground

where you ... You can guess.



Now, for the joke:



He and a friend were thrown out of a party by the doorman.



When it was really dark,, the doorman went to investigate what was

knocking at the window. They had suspended a rock to the window

frame so it hung right it the middle and tied another string

to the rock and hid behind the 'becosse' where they pulled

that second string to make the rock knock in the window.

That's an old trick. The doorman wouldn't fall for that one. So

he followed the second string in the dark

and soon concluded that they were hidding behind the 'becosse'.



He ran toward the merely visible wood structure...



But my father-in-law and his friend had taken care of moving the

shack six feet ... Boy he fell in the **** !!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



This one hasn't come up despite the presence of UCLA on the net. I'm

led to the sad conclusion that the tradition has died.



In the mid '70s, just before it was overrun by fanatic Dungeons \&

Dragons (tm) players, the UCLA Computer Club was host to a long series

of "glitter traps." Example: joke subject sits at a desk, pulls out a

drawer. A string runs from the back of the drawer, up the wall, into

the false ceiling, over to a spot directly over the subject's head,

where it triggers the trap: a mousetrap whose action snaps a card away

from its position covering a funnel, releasing a handful of glitter,

which flows down the funnel, through its spout, through a hole in the

ceiling acoustic tile, onto the subject. It was wonderful to watch: a

muffled snapping noise, a quiet "chuff," and the slow, glittery descent

of a cloud of brightly colored dust, to settle over the head and

shoulders of a club member who by now has assumed an expression of

appreciative resignation.



Another, more short-lived ploy was to suspend a wooden horseshoe by a

string from the ceiling in the corridor, such that the horseshow

dangles a couple of inches above the top of an upright broom. Most

conventional brooms will stand on their straws with a little coaxing.

We attached a sign labeling the horseshow "wood magnet." Quite a few

people took it at face value.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Another Cow joke I attribute to my 'Ol chemestry prof was the placement of

a cow onto the roof. I would presume a fairly storng roof, but once up

there it would be hard to hide the fact to the cow that any direction would

be down.



Another pratical joke involved the use of outhouses. Once the target has

established himself you take up the slack on the attached rope which has

been measured to set up tremendious harmonics in the structure. When the

rope transfers your strumming to the outhouse, it usually falls apart with

a most revieling nature..



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



I was once in a nice family-style restaurant when I observed

some kids supergluing the dishes to the table. They also attached

the silverware, napkins, salt, pepper, etc. If it wasn't already nailed down,

it was now. They stayed long enough to let the glue set, and then paid and

left. They watched as the poor busboy tried to get the stuff off of the table.





Also funny is supergluing a quarter to the sidewalk. I know its old,

but in the city, with the diverse types of people around, it gets really

amusing. I watched this old lady whack at it with her cane for about 10 min.

cursing......



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



A few months ago I saw a newspaper clipping which told of a newspaper in

Illinois (I think...) which ran a story warning consumers that, on such-and-

such day, Illinois Bell would be "blowing the dust out of the phone lines" and

that all phone owners should cover the earpiece of their phones with a bag to

catch the dust.



Bell made them print a retraction, after receiving numerous calls asking

what sort of bag to use ...



People, they is amazing.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



When I was in college our RA told us of a good one that (supposedly)

some friends had pulled a couple of years earlier. These two guys made

up a concoction of all kinds of left overs, semi-pureed it in a blender,

and filled a hot water bottle with it. One of them took the hot water

bottle, taped it to his stomach inside of his shirt and put a short

piece of hose into the top so that it came up to the front of his shirt

collar, but not visible. They both went to a local pub and sat at the

bar, acting already slightly intoxicated. After having a couple of beers

the guy with the hot water bottle says that he is feeling sick a couple

of times and "barfs" VERY loudly all over the bar to attract attention.

Naturally this causes the patrons to move away from him, all except his

buddy, who calmy pulls a fork out of his coat pocket and begins EATING

the stuff. ;-) I don't know how true it is, but I'd love to have been

there watching faces if it was...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Two very hot-headed people lived directly across the halls from each

other. Dave got a piece of 1/2" rope and tied their doors together with

about a 6" gap of slack. Waited until 2:30am and knocked REALLY HARD on

both doors.



Interesting way to wake up...having two steaming mad football jerks

slamming each other's doors open and shut. The Resident Advisor was NOT

pleased :-)





-------------------------------------------------------------------------



I can't resist a few:



1. Once you have stolen a dormmate's room keys, the room is yours to

plunder. As a variation, steal the dorm keys but reverse the lock

(so the keyhole faces INTO the room); we had a mechanical engineer

who got this down to about 20 seconds. Then loudly announce to the

victim you own the keys, but "let" them win the race back to their

room. PRESTO! Locked inside their own room (with no keys). If

you've fixed the phone to continually ring, they get very pliable

after about 10 minutes.



2. We connected our secretary's electric typewriter to a variac (can

vary the line voltage). At about 40-50 volts (out of the 110)

the little ball makes three or four jerky attempts before finally

striking a faint imprint. Fairly pathetic looking, actually.



3. Reverse the horizontal yoke leads on terminals (so the text comes

out backwards from right to left). This works best on a software

team who thinks they have just released the firmware for screen

drivers. Besides, hardware people figure it out too quickly.



4. Hand lotion inside of an air hose on the final assembly line is

effective, but very vindictive. Use with caution (now, I'm not

saying I ever did this, but I "saw" it done once :-)



And the standard saran wrap across women's toilets, Karo syrup, flour in

the shower, water-filled surgical tubing jammed in a drawer....ah, for

the good old days!!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



One night when you have a few friends around, take turns calling the

same phone number, a really obnoxious acquaintance that won't

recognize your voices is always a good choice. When the person

answers, try to leave a message for John Smith (or any name that

sounds real). Insist that you have the right number and even read

their number to them. Have a bit of fun here, and stretch this on as

long as possible. Repeat several times, once or twice an hour. Let

everybody have a turn at calling. Just as the party is breaking up,

call one last time. Tell the poor soul answering the phone that you

are John Smith, and ask "Are there any messages for me?" This is sure

to get a groan.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Seven friends once pulled this at my college cafeteria.

One put a hot water bottle filled with pea soup down his chest;

he sat at the head of a table, with the other six friends

sitting along the sides.

When the cafeteria was pretty full of people,

he made a loud noise (to attract attention),

stood up, bent over and squeezed his chest.

This caused a huge gush of green liquid to spew all over the table;

the other six immediately began to eat this green liquid.

I think a lot of food went uneaten that night.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Here's one that my roommate and myself did to a residence buddy. One

morning (early) we taped together a bunch of sheets of newspaper to cover

the victims doorframe. Then taped this big sheet over the doorframe which

left a gap of about two or three inches between the sheet and the door.

Then we filled the gap with paper balls right to the top of the doorway.

When he opened the door he was showered with a barrage of paper balls (makes

a nice mess too!) Of course, the door has to swing in for this to work!



My roommate was (and is) rather inventive and can be quite nasty. He buttered

all of the toilet seats in our wing of the residence (fortunately told me

first). He also buttered doorknobs at one point. We wrapped celophane over

the toilet bowl then replaced the seat: this one can be really messy!



Try this: hang a shower curtain out a window. When the person below reaches

out and pulls it in, pour a bucket of water onto the shower curtain. Listen

to hear the results. Requires a nosy neighbor below you.



Six friends of mine and myself tried a less complicated version of the classic

dismantling of a car and putting it back together somewhere strange. We lifted

a friends car that was parked between two other cars and turned it so that the

front and back end were facing the neighboring cars. This posed quite a problem

for our friend when he decided to go home. Requires either a small car or a lot

of very strong people! :-) I take no responsibility for any back injuries that

result from this. Of course I take no responsibility for any of my actions. :-)



There are, of course, some fairly standard pranks that are pulled in residence.

Typically, people are shafted on their birthday which is therefore a hazardous

date to reveal. Total demolition of a room is quite common, but lacks any real

humor. A common shaft is to remove everything from the victims room and set it

up somewhere else exactly as it was. The best examples I saw of this were: a

room moved to the roof of a science building, a room moved to the front

courtyard of the residence (really funny when it started to snow!) and a room

moved to the dining hall.



When I was younger, I had a practical joke genius for a working companion. We

both worked in the same computer store for a while. He left and became manager

of another store. I remember receiving an envelope with his firms return address

on it. Inside was a very silly brochure. I said aloud "There has to be something

else in this envelope". So I looked and of course there was a sheet of paper.

It read "No there is nothing else in this envelope!" I could never get him back

for anything that he pulled but he was an inspiration. The last practical joke

that I will relate was one that he taught me and it requires a bit of time to

prepare. First you need: iodine cristals and some amonium hydroxide. Mix the

two together and a brown sludge will form. Drain off the excess liquid and let

the sludge dry. The result? Snap powder, a pressure sensitive explosive. Just

sprinkle this on the floor and watch people's reactions. Its quite amusing.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



I have lived in several different houses with a bunch of guys. Needless

to say things got pretty rowdy sometimes and many were victims of some

pretty funny jokes. One of the favorites as I recall (and still is) is

to go into the bathroom while the victim is taking a shower, and pour

a bucket of extreeeemmmlly cold water on them over the top of the

shower curtain. This is quite a shocking experience, and if you are

fast enough you can get away before the victim finds out you did it.



I remember one guy I lived with getting this all the time. One time

he got sick of putting up with it and jumped out of the shower into

the hall squirting shampoo at everyone in sight. The next time this

happened the guys were ready with a camera to take pictures of him as

he ran out of the bathroom. These pictures were later shown at his

bachelor party.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



1) Got a neighbor that's a real pain in the ***? Do they have a

lawn? Do they have a garden that's accessible? Yes to all the

above? Great! Go out and get yourself some grass-killer and fill

the suckers hose with the stuff. Then sit back and wait for them

water their lawn! Nuff said?



2) Does the person that you want to get even with drink red wine? If

so, have I got one for you! Get yourself some Neutral Red, a water

soluble, crystalline, red dye. Mix some into the persons wine and

wait for them to take a leak. (Nuetral Red comes out as red as it

goes in, and people have a tendancy to get really nervous when they

start pissing what they think is blood!



3) (I'm surprised nobody mentioned this one yet.) Go to a pet shop and

buy a fancy looking pet collar and leash. Then, the next time you

see a dead animal in the road, attach the leash and collar setup

to its neck. Attach the whole thing to revengees rear bumper, making

sure to toss dead animal under the car so it won't be seen. When

revengee drives away, chances are he/she will be stopped by either a cop

or a member of some animal lovers group for draggin some poor defenseless

pet down the road. Either way, they are gonna have some awful quick

explaining to do!



4) Last, but certainly not least, is a great stink bomb. This one takes

a bit of time for preparation, so it's not too good for spontaneous

revenge. (But it's worth the time!) Get a quart jar with a rubber seal.

(Mason jars work quite well.) Pour about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of crystal Drano

along with about an inch or so of warm water into the jar. Place the

lid on the jar and allow the mixture to sit in a warm place for about an

hour. Take the lid off and add six egg whites, (no yokes). Add a quarter

cup of Methylene Blue, then fill the jar to within an inch of the top

with water. Seal the jar tightly and allow to sit for four to six weeks.

(I warned you it takes a while!) When the 'bomb' is ready to use, you

can either throw it like a molitov(sp?) cocktail, or shake it up and

pour the contents out, making damn sure you don't get any on yourself.

The results have to be seen, or is that smelled, to be beleived!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Is everyone out in net land familiar with Sensormatic? They are the company

that make the large plastic clips that set off alarms when you exit a

department store. I used to work for a department store and the is what

we did.



Open up the clip and remove the shiny piece of paper. It is about an inch

long and about half an inch wide. This is the "thingy" (that is the technical

word for it) that sets off the alarm. This "thingy" is easy to insert into

a pen case, lining of a jacket ...



We did this to a co worker and needless to say, he had problems wearing a

particular jacket to work.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



We have various local spots where the teenagers park, cruise, hold drag

races, drink beer etc. We happen to own a white 1983 Dodge Diplomat,

the exact kind of car used by the State Patrol around here as well as

many law enforcement agencies nationwide. (Actually our car WAS a

state patrol car, but that's another story). Anyway, my brother in

law, who is a cruiser, would occasionally borrow this car and drive it

down to the cruising spots. Needless to say, when they saw him coming

there was brief but furious activity. He finally had to stop doing

this because it made his friends so mad.



People hate to pass us on the freeway too. It is not unusual to see

some Camaro or Porche come zipping along through traffic until he is

about 2 car lengths behind us, then decelerate to a perfect 55.00 miles

per hour. It takes him about 10 seconds to look us over, decide we

aren't in uniform, notice that we don't have state license plates, and

make up his mind. He will then typiclaly test how fast his car will

accelerate to about 90 mph.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



They had a 'witchy' old lady next door that was constantly complaining

about everything and everyone in the neighborhood. After one really good

round about kids and pets messing up her spotless front yard, my buddies

planned what turned out to be a better joke than they originally thought.

Juvenile as we all were, they planned to write some dirty words in her

meticulously-groomed front lawn with some kind of powder that would stand

out. The only thing they could find was some Ortho Super-Gro Lawn Food

(white powdery stuff). They wrote the message in the dead of night, and

next morning it was bold and white for the world to see.

The 'kicker' came after. She came out, saw the graffiti, and immediately

grabbed a hose and WATERED IT OFF!



To this day, those sections of grass are just a little bit greener than

everything around them, and the words can STILL be read!







This reminds me of a story that a former roommate related to me. In college

he and a group of friends got revenge on complete strangers. ....Well, let

me set up the situation.



Y'know how sometimes you gotta park real far away from your destination

because certain types of people like to take up two parking spaces...?

Well, he and his friends got a little ticked about this, especially during

weekends at the school. One day, they decided to get even with every

\verb+"#@@#\$#@$&&"+ that took up "their" space. They turned the car sideways.

As he said, "He wanted that space so bad, now he can have it for a loooong

time!"



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



In a similar vein, tell your victim that you have a test of coordination

you would like him to try with you. Find a door with a fairly large crack

between the door and the wall when the door is open. (You know, over by

the hinges; across the width of the door from the doorknob...) You need an

egg (NOT hard-boiled), and a wood floor (you don't want the egg cracking on

carpeting, do you??). Now, have your victim get on the opposite side of

the door from you, and put 2 fingers through the door. Hand him the egg,

in those two fingers. Working with him, trade the egg back and forth a

couple of times, moving UP the door frame. After you have his confidence,

leave. He will be trapped there, holding this egg by two fingers through

the door. If he lets go and nobody takes the egg, it will crash to the

floor. Best to do in the person's own room.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



A few years ago some members of the infamous Dartmouth Outing Club pushed

an occupied one-seat outhouse off its foundations, onto its door. The

victim tried in vain for a few minutes to roll the entire building onto a

different side, but soon gave up, as it was too heavy. She then was forced

to climb out through the seat, and over the pit near the bottom (now side)

of the outhouse.



The followup to this episode was that some `friends' seized me in the

middle of the night and tied my feet in a noose suspended in a tree. But

that's another story.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



This practical joke is hearsay. A fellow student some years ago

related the following. Apparently another student was a bit of

a braggar. His favourite topic was his car, and one sub-topic

was the terrific gas milage (pre-metric) it got.



So it began one evening. Fill up a one-gallon container of gas

each night and pour it into the victim's gas tank. Wait for the

story each day to get better and better. Repeat until it cannot

be taken any more. I believe 2 weeks was sufficient.



Finally the moment (days) of truth. Each night for 2 weeks,

the effect was reversed, and one gallon of gas was REMOVED from

the victim's tank. It was amazingly effective at reducing some

of the stories. I suspect the truth was never revealed to the

victim.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Another harmless practical joke to be played on people living in multiple story

apartment buildings is as follows:

Knock on victim's door. Say, "I've got to use your window, someone's about to

jump from an apartment above yours." Run to window and look outside, but don't

let victim look.

At this point your accomplice dumps a rag-filled dummy either from the window

above or from the roof. The dummy should be fully closed; for added realism put

some plastic bags of fake blood inside the clothes.

On the sidewalk below, a third accomplice puts down a plastic sheet, then

covers it with a sheet painted to resemble the sidewalk. After the body hits,

let the victim see the gore, then convince him to run down and help while you

stay and call the ambulance. As soon as the victim has left, signal your

accomplice to remove the sheets and the dummy and head for some prearranged

hiding place. Then you leave the apartment and disappear somewhere in the

building; later, you make your way downstairs and leave.

The victim will race downstairs expecting to find a dead bloody body and

will instead see only clean, empty pavement. Of course, it is best done late

at night since the joke would be spoiled by a passer-by who informed the

victim of the "body's" fate.

The fun comes imagining the victim trying to convince the police or anyone

else of what happened!



---------------------------------------------------------------------------





In our residence the lounge door can be locked (or unlocked) by any room

key from the floor. You can also remove the handles from a door (ie the lock

comes too) and switch the handles.



We did this to one guy, he was the only one who could lock the door to the

lounge (we never locked anyway) but everyone could get into his room.

Every night for a week (at about 3:30 am) someone would go in and do something

to him while he was asleep (nothing really nasty). As he was a sound sleeper, it

actually took him a week to figure out what was going on.



Disclaimer: Kids at home, Don't try this.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



This one reminded me of a joke some of the guys on our floor pulled on another

guy while he was in the shower. While he was in the shower, they took all his

clothes and even his towel and hung them outside in the hall (over water

pipes in the ceiling - we were in the basement). I don't know how long he

stayed in there and/or whether or not someone ever gave him back his clothes.

The worst part of this one was that there were 2 shower stalls in the bathroom -

and I happened to be in the other one; it could of happened to me!!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



In my younger days, while employed at a warehouse, I was the butt

of the usual practical jokes directed at newcomers.(Fetch me a light-bulb

repair kit, son;etc) As days passed, I noticed that one of my antagonists

was actually afraid of his terminal. This was at the time when the press

was full of accounts of the dangers of X-rays from color TV's, and this

guy was deathly afraid of the noise made by the high-voltage section of the

CRT as it warmed up. Each morning he sat in his swivel chair, coffee in his

left hand, and with the chair as far as possible away from the terminal, used

his right hand to quickly flick the ON switch, and then jerked it away from

THE CERTAIN DEATH THAT AWAITED. After the racket settled down, he would wheel

up to the terminal and commence operations.

This situation was too good for yours truly to pass up. I went upstairs

and pulled out a stock item, a stadium buzzer, used by high schools on the

football fields to announce the end of a quarter. I came in early the next

morning and installed it in one of his file boxes, near the terminal. I ran the

wires out to the next office via a pass-thru, and alerted all of the staff

(but him) of what was about to transpire.

He entered the room, coffee in hand, and sat in his chair. All others

were heads-down in work. He adjusted his chair to the proper distance, reached

way out for the switch, and as soon as he pulled, I plugged in the cord. As the

buzzer sounded, he assumed the facial expressions of one who has seen death

reaching it's skeltal fingers to snatch him from the land of the living.

Coffee flew to the ceiling, and for a few brief seconds before hitting the

opposite wall, a new world land speed record for backward swivel-chair

operation was established!

Preface: The person that this is played on must be someone who really

deserves it because it takes several people to pull off. He must

also live on the first floor of his dorm. It must also occur in the winter

in a suitably cold and barren area like Dartmouth.



PHASE 1:



We did this trick to someone we found very difficult to live with.

When the victim was away from his room we began to pile up a large amount of

snow outside of his window. The conditions were perfect. His window was

divided into two sections. One didn't open, the other (in theory) swung

outward like a door. The snow was wet and packed heavily and easily.

(On colder days a hose may be used to harden the snow.) We built a huge

pile of snow which reached six or eight feet back from the part of his

window that swung. We then, as a demoralizing factor, put a cosmetic layer

of snow which completely covered the section which didn't open.



When we had finished the outside work we went into his room and closed his

shade and curtain so that he would not notice what we had done until it was

too late.



PHASE 2:



We then waited for him to come home. Luckily his room was on a side of the

dorm away from the entrance so that our work wasn't visible from the approach.

He arrived and entered his room. We listened outside his door until we

heard his shade go up and a sudden "What the F--K?" as only pure, white

snow was visible through the window. At this point we wedged a paperback

book between his door and the frame. (Similar to using pennies, but more

effective.)



We then sat back and listened as he started towards the door. "Allright, who

put all the snow outside my...what the F--K? OPEN THIS DOOR!"



The show got more exciting as he, thinking that he could still just go out the

window, walked over, opened his curtain, tried to open the window, and became

aware of the magnitude of the problem facing him. He had no phone, and so

could not call the campus police to come help him. His neighbors would

not heed his cries, because most of them had assisted us with the trick.



We eventually released him, but only after he had come to the realization that

he needed to be more considerate of those living around him, or else face

living out the rest of a prematurely shortened life in a small, snow

covered dorm room.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



My favorite dorm practical joke involved collecting newspapers for about 3

months by everyone. When a guy on my floor had a three hour lab we crumpled

up newspapers and completely filled his room from floor to ceiling.

When he returned, he had to go in through in the bathroom, and wasn't even able

to get the door open far enough to get through.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Want some fun times! Heres the way:



1. While your friend is sleeping, carefully water down his mattress.

(If he sleeps in a waterbed, just give it a few punctures)



2. Take an extension cord, clip off the cube-tap, seperate the wires,

and strip the two ends, exposing about two inches of bare wire.



3. Wrap one end around his left big toe, the other on his right.



4. Stand near an electrical outlet, plug the poor unsuspecting soul in!



This is a great ice breaker for your new roommate, etc. Cleanup is

a bit, er, messy, but well worth the gag. You can be guarenteed that

the victim will be impressed! And think of it: No retaliation! It's

the perfect practical joke! And to think that nobody's posted it yet.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



About nine years ago the book "The Adolescense of P1" was very popular at

the computer shop where I was employed. In case you don't know, this is

about a hacker named Gregory and a computer program he wrote which is self-

perpetuating. Years later he is employed as an honest Systems Analyst and has

almost forgotten about his "child." Then the system downstairs prints out

"CALL GREGORY" and locks up ... followed by a thickening plot, some

humorous, some frightening.



I worked nights. It wasn't hard to replace the boot file on our system disks

with another that typed out "CALL GREGORY" before replacing itself with the

original.



It's funny that there haven't been more computer practical jokes posted

here. What a marvelous opportunity the computer affords the practical joker!



I designed and wrote a point-of-sale system which was first installed in

1976, after which I left the company. At midnight, December 31, 1977 every

system in the country stopped whatever it was doing, flashed every light and

sounded every beeper on every cash register, printed "Happy New Year" on

every printer, and went back to whatever it was doing. I wonder how that

happened?



Some of the least elaborate practical jokes are the most effective. Go with

a couple of friends, stand near some busy street corner, and take a great

interest in some point near the top of a tall building, or maybe just up in

the sky. Watch the reactions of people around you.



Take an old windowshade, go to a gymnastics show or anywhere else where people

wear leotards, wait for someone to do a split, and tear the windowshade

briskly, making a very loud ripping sound ...



Go to any gag store and get a fake plastic vomit. Put it in a drinking

fountain. Wet it is amazingly realistic ...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Back around 1969 at another university, we had just gotten time sharing

facilities and because of the unrest (this was about Kent State) we had

armed guards protecting the computer and the few terminals. It being

around midnight, I got the guards playing an interactive monopoly game.

The next evening i was confronted by a VERY upset computer operator.

Apparently at about 4:00AM one guard landed on Boardwalk and the game

ended when he didn't have enough money to pay the rent. The guards

DEMANDED the operator restart the game and bcame more and more upset

when he couldn't.

Recipe for LARGE quantities of soapsuds:



1. Fill a large bucket with hot water.



2. Empty contents of one bottle of dishwashing detergent into bucket (Ivory,

Joy, Dawn, or equivalent).



3. Drop in a few pounds of dry ice that has been crushed to small pieces.



4. STAND BACK!



Recipe will fill a phone booth, or a small room (or even a big one).

A friend and I once did this in the bed of his truck. While stopped at

traffic signals the whole bed would fill up to the rim with suds. Then,

as we would accelerate away from the light, large "chunks" would break loose

and waft lazily through the air, causing much consternation to the traffic

behind. On the freeway the result was much smaller pieces of suds billowing

out of the back of the truck. It looked like a snowstorm! It's funnier to

see than the description sounds. We were hysterical.



Also, the soap can be omitted from the above to obtain fog. A phone booth

that is opaque with dense fog looks pretty strange too.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Okay, this is something me and my best friend did to our Comp. Sci.

teacher senior year of high school.



We started this joke by getting into heated arguments for a

week before the actual event and of course everything was building up

a big head of steam. By this time the other kids knew something was

up and we let them in on the joke, so now we have about 30 people

helping in our cause.

Anyway, on the day of the crime we went to the school's

dressing room and, since we were both active in the drama club, no one

asked what we were there for. So, I get ready for the fun by making

myself a nice layer of plasti-skin and filled it with stage blood.

Danny, my friend, obtained the services of a prop knife, you know one

of the ones that retract and we tested the depth of the cut with the

thickness of the skin, it was right, so now we are set.

We walk into class seperated by about a minute and we start

right where we had left off, teh name calling, the pushing and all the

other aspects of high schoolers that don't like each other. So Danny

pulls the knife out of his pocket and yells, "That's it Ray, you're

dead." So he swings at my neck and the knife cuts the plasti-skin and

the stage blood goes everywhere, I crumple in a gurgling heap and lay

prone under the table of trash80's. Mr. Waddington comes up and sees

Danny standing over me with a blood covered knife and sees me

apparently dead starts to roll me over. I flop over like any good

corpse and he dabs at the blood now covering my neck and says the line

I was waiting for, "My God you killed him!" At that moment, I opened

my eyes and asked him what he was doing. I have heard of peoples

faces going white and now I saw it.

After he relised what we had done, he congradulated us on a

job well done.

Where I used to work, one of the group leaders used to have a

Playboy calender. One of the young ladies who objected to the posting

did a mastectomy \& placed the paper in the phone between the pickup

and the connection. The phone seemed to be complete, but did not work.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



One prank I haven't seen listed yet is the one I used to do at summer

camp and the college dorm. Take the top off the toilet tank. Inside,

there is usually a vertical plastic pipe about 1 inch in diameter.

Going into the top of this pipe is a little plastic tube. Turn the

tube outward and, if it is long enough, then put it toward the toilet

bowl with the end just sticking out. Replace the tank cover, making

sure that the little plastic tube is just sticking out. When someone

flushes, the tube will squirt water.



One time in Colorado I did this at 3:00am. The guy that got caught

must have flushed with his elbow while still seated. His back was

sprayed with ice cold water. His language was abominable, and made

funnier since this was a Christian camp. Oh well, we're all human.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



These are computer-related practical jokes played by an old

acquaintence years ago at a nameless university in Northern

California. He wisened up and stopped playing them when the

various administrations of the computer centers found out who

it was. Sometimes I simply could not believe that he would do

things like this.



The first one was probably the worst. The undergraduate computer

center was being connected to a large terminal lab across campus via

a long line across campus. This had taken the technical folks who

worked at the computer center months of planning, pulling cables,

attaching lines, reconfiguring the system, and so forth.



It was at about this time that Jack (not his real name), wrote a

program called "GARB" (short for "Garbage") This program sat in the

background running at low priority. It would choose a random interval,

sometimes seconds, sometimes minutes, sleep for that interval, and

then wakeup. At that point, it would choose a random ASCII character

and then choose a random terminal on that computer and send the character

to the terminal. Then it would loop back into its sleep mode until the

next time it woke up.



The administration and technical people spent weeks wondering why

their attempts at connecting cross-campus cables were causing spurious

data across existing lines, as well as the lines that had been connected.

They had people out there with the elaborate technical equipment trying

to trace down the source of the "noise" that was polluting the terminal

lines with stray characters.



Quite a while later, they did indeed discover the problem and confronted

Jack. I'm not sure what happened after that.



Another thing Jack did, before that, was write a program called "GOD".

It would patch the running monitor and actually insert a jump into the

code that performed the logout-job function within the monitor. The

jump simply took control of the monitor to a patch-area elsewhere

within memory where a simple comparison took place to see if the

logout being requested was of any jobs belonging to Jack. If so, it

simply did a no-op, with an appropriate return-condition indicating

success (so that the calling program which initiated the system call

would not know the job had not been logged out). This program, "GOD"

most came in handy to Jack during the wee morning hours when few

people used the system but the proverbial "wheel wars" occurred, in

which enabled superusers with privileges attempted to conquer each other

in various ways.



Needless to say, none of the above behavior is tolerated by the

administration any more, with good reason.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Propose to the victim a co-ordination test, and tell him that it has been

taken by the brightest people around you (quote some scores!). You sit in

front of the victim and put your palms about twelve inches apart. The victims

task is very simple. With eyes closed, his palms clasped together, he should

cautiously take his palms between your palms, remove them, and repeat the

process. Of course he must not touch your palms otherwise he "looses". Each

cycle counts as one point and "any average person can get 100 points". As I

said, tell him the scores of some other people you know.



Let him paractice a little with his eyes open. Then blindfold him (to avoid

the "natural" temptation of cheating) and say START. After a while leave. it

is a hilarious sight to see a person rock his clasped palms back annd forth

for no obvious reason.



Be sure to invite many of your friends to witness this sight. You will find

that this co-ordination test really sounds sincere, and many innocent people

who listen to you explaining to the chosen victim, actually volunteer to take

the test before the victim. This gives you a choice of victims to choose from.



OK, OK... I insisted on taking this test too and made a fool of myself !!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



1. This one happened impromptu. A group of us were novice UNIX hacks working

for our department of computer science, all on similar terminals. I had

written a small program that would transmit a single character at a time to

another terminal. (No big deal, but no one else had tried it.) One guy was

typing away, and I was making his cursor "wiggle" by pressing the forward and

reverse arrow keys. He exclaimed that something was wrong with his cursor.

Another guy picked up on this, and explained that the cursor beam must be loose.

He gave the right side of the first guy's (John's) terminal a good hard whack,

I transmitted a carriage return. John laughed, but actually sat there typing

in (some text), and whacking the side of the terminal every time he needed a

carriage return, FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. Needless to say, we were hysterical.



The second guy, (Tim), says "John, watch this!" and put his hand under John's

desk and gave the underside of the desk another whack: I transmitted a "HOME"

character, moving the cursor to the top of the screen, again as if the whack

had moved the cursor. John continues typing, whacking the bottom and side of

the terminal whenever he needs cursor motion. Tim smacks the top of the

terminal and I transmit a CLEAR key: it looked as if the characters have been

"knocked off" the screen. John is just about the get the lab manager when

we clue him in.



2. I once had a job as a COBOL programmer. A particular program was to

input no more than 20 items from an operator, and them produce the appropriate

report from them. I asked my boss what the program should do if the

operator wanted more than 20 items to appear in the report. He said, oh,

that will never happen. But what if it does, I asked. Gruffly, he said,

have it notify the operator.



This particular machine had a seriously loud bell (control G) that sounded

like a real bell, plus it was fairly easy to make the screen flash off and on.

I coded it to flash and ring the alarm for a minute. I tried it once and

it was truly alarming. I never heard if anybody tried to enter more than

twenty items, but it is something I think about from time to time ...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



on the subject of practical jokes on the computer, i pulled the following

one. when i was in college at new mexico tech (located in socorro, which

is spanish for help!), i was a programmer for several departments. as a

result, i was setting up some user interfaces. the machine was a dec 20

(with tops20) and there was a central terminal room with about thirty adm 3s

(now, there is a terminal) in it. anyway, when this 20 went down in a

controled manner it would send out a warning "dec 20 going down", then

three dots at one second intervals, then a "p", then go down. when it came

up, it would send out a message "dec 20 coming up", then three dots at

one second intervals, then a "p", then the login header. anyway, the

victum sat down to use a statistical package (it is so much fun to play with

people whose use canned stat packages). after he had been on for ten

minutes, he received the dec 20 going down sequence and then his terminal

went dead. so he waited (about five minutes). however, all during this

time, everyone around him was typing away merrily. finally he asked if

the system had gone down. everyone said no. then he asked the operator.

again no. then the system manager. he finally brought back the user

servant (someone paid to answer user's questions) back to the terminal.

they played with the switches, then the user servant scratched his head

and said "beats me". about this time, the message "dec system 20

reengaged" appeared on his terminal, then the three dots, then the "p",

then the message "automatic login in effect, status at crash resumed"

and he was right where he left off! the program that caused this then

deleted (and expunged) itself. to this day, i don't think he knows what

happened to him.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Another practical joke under the guise of a co-ordination test is the

following. Ask your victim to take a quarter and place it on a piece of

paper. Then ask him to take a pencil, and without removing his finger off

the quarter, to draw a circle around the quarter. Have him repeat the same

exercise with each of his fingers pressing on top of the quarter. Afterwards,

have him pick up the quarter and rub it along the bridge of his nose. It'll

then be really funny to watch him walk around with a black line on his face.



I also have heard of a practical joke that can be done to a person while

he/she is sleeping. If the person's hand is dipped in warm water, this

causes a subconscious relaxation of the bladder and causes the person to

wet his/her bed. I have never tried this, nor have I seen it tried, but I've

heard it from quite a few people. Has anyone out there ever tried it?



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



This is true. It seems that a colleague and myself are scheduled to

present a paper next month at an AI conference. We've never heard of

the conference nor did we write a paper.



Also, just today I got a letter that begins "Thank you for agreeing to

serve as chairperson of the following session at ICASSP-87 in Dallas,

texas." I've never met nor spoke to the person sending the letter nor

did I agree to be a chairperson. Either someone is setting me (us) up

or this is a sneaky way to get volunteers.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



A computer related practical joke a played in my younger days

(2 years ago...) was to write an unstoppable program (disabled

break, CTRL-C, etc...) that would imitate the login procedure. I

would leave it running on a public terminal and whenever

somebody tried to logon, it would always print the message

'User validation error' (Or whatever message corresponding

to the operating system [that was VAX/VMS.] login error)

and loop back.



Meanwhile, the user ID and the password were written in a file

in my directory...



The only way to get out of the program was to turn off the

gandalf box.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in the good old college days, when pulling all-nighters (sure, you must

have done some of those before!), at about 2 or 3am, try calling someone to

"remind" them to go to the bathroom (or do something). Wait for half-an-hour

or so, call again just to make sure s/he did what you asked them to do earlier!



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



When I was out at Union College in Schenectady N.Y, we had a great college

radio station that would give away pizzas, movie passes, clothes, etc. for

answering trivia questions throughout the day. One day, my friend and I

recorded a trivia question on our tape deck and kept the tape in the deck.

A little later one of our good friends came over to visit and we were all

listening to the campus station. As soon as one of the songs ended, we turned

on the tape with out our friend noticeing and the D.J asked a trivia question

for a large pizza. Our friend knew the answer and since he was closed to the

phone, he immediatly picked it up and dialed the station. He was really excited

that he got through and started yelling the answer at the mystified D.J. He was

incredibly embarrased, we were trying so hard not to laugh it hurt.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



DEC 20 practical jokes were rampant at an undergraduate computer center

I once frequented. One practical joker, call him Jack (yes, the same

Jack mentioned in an earlier message on this list), wrote a program

that was really rather nasty.



This program maintained two tables or arrays of strings. The strings

would be things like:



[FROM TTY NN: HI SWEETIE, JUST CAUGHT YOU LOOKING AT ME]

or

[FROM TTY NN: HEY YOU GORGEOUS HUNK, COME OVER AND MEET ME]



The program would cycle through the system sending out these messages

occasionally to a random terminal, insuring that the terminal mentioned

in the terminal messages above would have an actual logged-in job.

The person who received the message would either be a) annoyed b)

flattered and want to meet their admirer or c) angry.



I heard that many meetings of users resulted from this program.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Some friends of mine in high school used to turn in assignments from the old

IBM /370 with start of execution at 07:58:00 Dec 7 1941 (apologies about the

time if in error, but history is not my forte).





-------------------------------------------------------------------------



The hardest to do/forget practical joke that I know is a variation on

the theme of dismantling something large and then reassembling it in

someone's office/apartment/dorm room.



Locally there was a VP who was a Volkswagen Beetle Fan, so for his

birthday, some of the people who work for him stuck one in his office.

It made the newspaper when the refused to take it apart.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Allow me to be the first to recommend an excellent book of $really$

nasty revenge getters. It's called "Getting Even: the complete book

of Dirty Tricks" (in 2 volumes, I believe) Unfortunately, I don't

have my copy here, so I can't give the author's name, but I think

it (they?) was published by Paladin Press.



It contains real gems for all occasions. (mad at the landlord that

evicted you? seal the apartment after introducing 10-15 cats and

plenty of food/water)



Warning: most of these dirty tricks are $really$ nasty, don't use

these on people you might have to deal with in the future.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



In 1972 I was working at a very boring job in an aerospace factory.

There were three guys my age (early 20's) in the department and we

werw always playing what we saw as a joke on some poor unsuspecting

soul. I was also in the Navy Reserve at the time and had to take

two weeks off during the Summer to due my training. When I returned

from two weeks off, not yet bored enough yet to begin playing more

jokes, the other three guys went off their heads pulling any kind of

trivial, dangerous or otherwise obnoxious stunt they could think of.

At the end of the second day the supervisor called me into the office

and said:



"Jones, I don't know what's the matter with you but you better knock

it off. I've had two weeks of peace and quiet while you were gone

and now that you're back all hell's breaking loose. You go on back

out there and stop bothering people."



I knew that I hadn't done anything but I didn't bother to protest.

I could recognize a well executed joke when I saw one.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



A great trick I have gotten away with many a time requires a little

preparation, simply to go to the grocery and get a few packages of Kool-Aid.

Then while your 'prey' is away, simply spread it nice and liberally into his

bed, best if done in stripes, to leave his body in different colors. This

works best in a warm room where he is sure to sweat during the night to the

utmost.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



If you have access to a two(or more) line phone, this is a great one,

dial the first six numbers of your prey's phone number, and put that line on

hold, then dial the other number; a pizza place, or his girlfriend is good for

starters, then escalate to college offices, activist terrorist organizations

and the CIA are good from then on. After you dial the second number, quickly

put the second number on hold, then dial the last number of the first number

and push BOTH buttons down at the same time to activate both calls at once,

then listen, but don't laugh, or they might hear you and do worse in return.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



Try taping a drunk to his bed. Get a large roll of masking tape and

when he passes out wind it around him and the bed.



Another good one to do with a drunk is to put one of those fake bald

heads over his hair. Then when he wakes up ask him if he knows what

he did last night.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



I am far too Nice a person to ever have done these, but a friend of mine...:

1. Leave old trash paperbacks around launderettes and other public places.

Write inside the front cover: Property of (Victim). I need this book

for my thesis. If found, please return to (address) for \$10.00 reward.

2. Post ads around town for a garage sale (or open house) at Victim's house

starting at 7:00 AM next Sunday.

3. Call lots of people and identify yourself as the victim, and say "I was

walking throught the neighborhood recently and just realized I dropped

my wallet. Could you please check the sidewalk in front of your house

and let me know if you find it? Thanks $so$ much. My phone number is...



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



How about some chocolate Ex-lax in brownies.



Or maybe some ambesol in the mouthwash.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------



The best practical joke I know of is from MASH. However, you need a reputation

as an incorrigable joker for it to work. Just let the person know you are

going to play a big one on him within 5 days. (Pick your time frame.) And

that he will be powerless to stop you. If you do it right, he'll worry himself

to pieces and make a fool of himself. Then DO NOTHING.

Go to one of those miniature golf courses that has a windmill hole.

Replace the motor with one that can spin the windmill at about 1000 RPM.

Then illuminate it with a strobe light so it looks like its moving at

about the same speed as before.

How `bout those relatives that seem to stay longer than expected....



If you had someone staying at your house, especially if they're traveling

with small children, help them pack up the car. Slip some limburger (sp?)

cheese into their car somewhere where it'll slowly get warm. You can

imagine the consternation when they pull to a rest stop to change junior's

diapers and find nothing there. Or the line, "Did you hit a skunk or ...?"

Make a list of "breaking all the rules." Before the shift is over show the list to them and tell them they've broken all these rules and you're going to show the list to the boss. Write down ridiculous things, such as you caught one co worker day dreaming for 3 minutes on company time and when another coworker came to work he/she did not turn on their turn signal when turning into the parking lot.

I always go for the good old fashioned: Wait till he/she is walking by with an armload, preferably coffee. Hide behind a good, non transparent block, and scare the F==K out of him when he gets right up on you.

I love that.

enable his mum and dad enable you in his abode (or roomate if he lives with roomies) & be donning a mask extremely frightening gruesome one... (perchance purchase one decrease priced on ebay) if adequate time passes, do no longer worry i'm helpful that's extra helpful if he has extra time to overlook approximately payback.... besides, get contained in the bathe & wait.... while he is going to the bathing room after waking up contained in the morning & is groggy & infrequently thinking for sure (& never on take care of) be verrrrry quiet, finished pass a muscle... only WAIT.... as quickly as he's contained in the door & locks it... blast out like a monster with a ROAR ROAAAAHHHHHHAHAAAA, you will scare the bejeebers back out of him... I observed this on Ellen the place she laid in watch for human beings going to the bathing room, i will attempt to locate it for you. that's hilarious!! VERY useful payback... in case you are attempting this, see approximately installation a video digital camera & posting it on youtube (even if if that's deepest just to share with acquaintances & kinfolk)
