What is the worst prank you ever pulled? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Well, I could'nt remember what is the worst, cause frankly there have been to much, but I can sum up what they were about. Fire, water, ink, snow and so on. But one that I remember very clearly is this one.
I was in the 7th grade, during wonter, and all I did in the afternoon was to make confeties. Thousnad and thousands of them. At the end of the day, when we got in the school bus, (I was always the first one in cuz 7th grade finished classes 15min before everyone else) I put all the confeties in the buses air vents for heating. When the busdriver started the bus everything flew everywhere.

I was proud of my self that day....and the bus driver was sure it was me....I dont know why?....

One time in high school I poured a tub of Jell-O down the front of my trousers, then went up to a girl and started getting jiggy with it while telling her to "light my fire, light my fire." Two years later I married her.

This was in 9th grade. I invaded my a friend's apartment with 8-9 classmates, dragged him out to the balcony and locked him out. From there he could helplessly just watch how we turned his apartment upside down and just made a bloody mess. Unfortunately, one of the neighbours had seen this kid freezing on his balcony, heard loud noises, thought he had a too loud party and called the cops.

It was really fun until that point, though.

Got spare money?

While I was in boarding school we had an awful horrible woman for our dorm mother. One weekend we had all had enough and most of us didn't go home and stayed in the dorm. When she went to sleep we put toliet paper in all the alarms so the bells wouldn't ring and wake us up in the morning, took tampons out of the holders and taped them all around her desk. Greased all the door knobs so she couldn't get in our rooms, greased the phones, took out the speaker pieces in the hand sets. Then we got sugar and poured in front of her door. Needless to say we were on shut down for quite a while, but it was worth it!!!!

I remember one prank in particular that went awry.

A guy in the dorm poured a can of orange soda into a glass and then went out into the hall to answer a telephone call. He was gone for a few minutes, so we got the bright idea of pouring a half a bottle of tabasco sauce into the orange soda, thinking that he would not see it, but would spit out the soda as soon as he tasted it. When he got back he guzzled half the glass before it hit him.

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

I had designed a Monthly report running procedure for a marketing weenie. (no not ming ) He wasn't the brightest guy and his mere presence would annoy people.

I placed a trigger in the program to check the userid, the day of the week and a random factor. When all of these conditions were met, which due to his analness, happened about once every three months, halfway through the process the screen would go blank for a few secs, start flashing "error" "error" and then posted the following message. "You have experienced a critical error. You are obviously too stupid to be running this. Please find someone that knows what the heck they're doing and resubmit" After 5 seconds the screen would clear and the program would abort. He would always call me over to check it, but due to the limitations that I put in there, he was never able to replicate it in front of me. Everytime I ran it, it worked just fine. I kept giving him strange looks and insinuated that what he had seen was impossible.

It got harder and harder to keep a straight face every few months when he called me over. This went on for over three years, and he NEVER figured out what I had done. Eventually the need for those reports changed and he never ran them again.

Well I once had this shower gel my mother had packed me up to take back to university. But I never used it as it looked just like semen.

One day my friend had gone out and was coming back with his girlfriend to his room Realising this I set up a bit of a joke: I took some tissues and squirted loads of the shower gel on them and left them on his bed, along with a copy of 'Personal Computer World' I found, which I left open on his bed next to the semen-soaked tissues (or so it seemed). God knows what his girlfriend must have though, but it was damn hilarious. He didn't speak to me for over a week. He eventually saw the funny side after a few months

Whilst staying in a hall of residence, one of my neighbours had a fake-fur bed throw and cuts of deep-pile carpet all over the floor. He even put them up the wall, thinking it looked seductive.

Then he went away for a week. Naturally we broke in, and with the aid of a load of cress seeds, he came back to an amazing, all-over lawn in his room.

a friend of mine was on a pre-military training not so long ago.

It was night , and the commanders-instructors(all women) were patrolling the camp , watching if they were sleeping , and generally behaving themselves.

so he took out his flashlight , and made a shadow of an erection. A huge one. one of the instructors , (intrigued?) soon arrived , while he turned it off and acted like if he was sleeping.

He said it was really funny to see her stunned , even from the outside :.

Rah's story is the best here so far, hands down.

In college I pulled a tabasco-sauce prank just like Adam Smith's, except that the target was a jug of lemonade in the guy's fridge. Same result; he took a huge swig right from the jug and lost the steak dinner he'd just eaten.

My math prof in high school said that when he was in college there was a BMOC on his floor who would wedge people's doors shut with pennies. People would try to get him back (*** for tat), but the BMOC knew of some way to unwedge pennies that were crammed into his door; he was also physically huge, so it was difficult for people to get revenge on him using alternate methods.

My math prof took compressed wooden slats that were soaked in glue and wedged them into the guy's door. The BMOC couldn't get out, but his pride wouldn't allow him to call for help so he escaped out the window. Unfortunately he was on the second floor so he broke his arm getting out.

The door was wedged shut so tightly that the entire frame had to be removed. The BMOC never figured out who had pranked him (so there were no reprisals against my prof), and he stopped his penny-wedging antics thereafter.

One that my friends did is pretty funny.

A bunch of my friends and myself were in a marching band. We were marching through the most populated point of the parade and playing our song. Well, the t.v. camera's were rolling (this is the Aloha Day Parade BTW) and all of a sudden we see these two guys with McDonald bags on their heads and wearing trashbags as coats running up toward one of my friends and jump on his back...in the middle of the parade.

Before the police could arrest my friends, they ran from the street into the crowd. I later found out that they ran down a back alley and took off their "disguises" and returned to the sidewalk to watch the rest of the parade.

I thought it was funny as heck, but my band teacher was pissed (even though he didn't know who those guys were)

(I think the incident was shown on t.v. too!)

At work one day we had a laptop we used when at home to dial in to various A/C systems in the hospital I worked at. We had to bring it in to do a software upgrade. In the room next to the one we were in was the locksmith's shop.

What we did was set up the laptop to dial into his phone, he would pick up the phone and we could hear him say:

"Hello."

"Hello?"

"Hello! If you can hear me I can't hear you!"

Then the modem would hang up.

Meanwhile me and my friend Rich are dying trying to keep quite in the next room. We do this maybe 4 times before the locksmith calls communications with his phone problems. They come over replace the phone and leave.

Later that day, Rich goes into the locksmith's shop to talk to him about something, so naturally I sneak into our office and use the modem to dial up the locksmith again. I walk out of the room and into the LS's room He's yelling into the phone again. Rich sees me and has to literally run past me so he wouldn't start laughing and get us caught.

We would repeat this process every six month's.

Another one I liked to do was, if somebody forgot to log out of their computer, I'd change the wallpaper for it to read something like "I make love to chickens". Of course the people who forgot usually weren't to computer savvy, so they would call me to fix it for them.

The last one, was I simply told I guy I worked with:

"Whatever it was, I didn't do it."

He spent the rest of the day trying to figure out what I did to him.

I once arranged, using a system of string, boards, and the help of a ladder (to set this up), to have a dead o'possum dropped down a chimney... when the family inside had a fire going. Luckily, Mr. Possum didn't get caught up in the damper.

I also convinced the school that the world was going to end.

I also used to make prank calls to which the purpose was to convince the other person that they had killed someone by answering their phone.
