What was the greatest prank you ever pulled?

[jillio]

Well, during my teenage years, I was a fan of the movie, Halloween. I had a Michael Myers mask, just like the one in the movie. So on one occasion, I decided to put the mask on and wear a blue jumpsuit just like in the movie. I went into the furnace and laundry room in the basement.

I hid behind the furnace and waited for someone to enter the room, the room is not that well-lit where the furnace is. So I was able to conceal myself in the darkness. Once the person approached the washing machine, I slowly walked out toward the person, not making a peep.

She started to look up a little as if she felt the presence. She looked and saw me, she screamed like she never has in her life and shouted the F word quite loudly.

Hee. Oh these days. I know, I know, it was cruel but I got a kick out of it.

I think we share a bit of a disturbed sense of humor.:P

Here's one for you, I once wanted to scare my mother while she was taking an afternoon nap. So I put on the mask and slowly got onto the bed and laid down. I stared her down laying down and once she opened her eyes, her instincts kicked in and quickly punched me right in the mouth, not that hard but yes, it did hurt for a few minutes.

I guess I got what I asked for.

When my son was about 8 or so, a friend that managed a movie theatre gave him a life size cardboard figure of Melanie Griffith left over from a movie promotion. He snuck into my room and stood it right beside my bed during the night. I woke up to her staring at me, and nearly killed myself jumping out of the bed!

somebody did that in front of my condo door and knocked on the door. my mom looked into peephole and got startled. She grabbed me to go check it out. I looked into peephole and it was a large man just standing there, staring.

I was very puzzled but I didn't want to risk confrontation so I locked the deadbolt and repeatedly yelled - WHO ARE YOU??? He was still standing there and staring. My mom was very freaked out and called the security. 2 security guards rushed in and chuckled cuz it was just a damn life-size cardboard of Legolas Greenleaf (archer from Lord of the Ring). It was hard to see it clearly cuz of peephole. I actually chuckled but my mom was furious. Later, there was a doorknock and it was 2 young highschool girls from upstair asking for Legolas Greenleaf poster. My mom was very upset and told them to come back with their parents.

The father came and was very very apologetic and poor girls look embarrassed. Too bad their prank backfired... but if it was just me - I would have just chuckled and tell them not to do it again to other neighbor because the fear of vulnerability is actually very real. People pay premium to live in condo for security and peace of mind.

Yep, he definately inherited my sense of humor! When he was in kindergarten while I was getting him transferred to the deaf school, he used to hide the teacher's mic to his FM system when she took it off! He would also take the batteries out and sign, "Broken. Can't use."

but that's not prank. that's bullying.

Prank is usually harmless joke where people laugh and nobody gets hurt or gets in trouble. I felt sad when I read your post.

Ok, I got a great one. One day, at our job location, I put a dead pigeon under the seat in my co-workers company truck. One week later, they( 3 workers) couldnt stand the smell so they cleaned out the truck and found the dead bird. They all knew it was me. They all told me the smell was flat out horrible smell. They thought it was the food b/c we eat fast food all da time. (landscape/maintenance job)

EDIT: When we meet at job location once a week, they'd double make sure their truck is locked.

There is one more from my vault...

About 20 years ago, I worked with a guy that went to McDs every day for lunch, cuz it was a block away, and he was a young party guy. There was another guy that smoked dope for lunch every day. About an hour after lunch, the doper would go searching for snacks. The McD guy always bought extra food for last break. The doper discovered this, and would come back and steal some of his food. One day I told the McD guy to pick up an extra cheeseburger for me. When he brought it back, I tossed it in my toolbox...for a week. I took it out after a week, and it was dry. Splashed a bit of water on it and tossed it in the microwave. Came out soft, like new. Set it out in the usual spot. Sure enough, about an hour later, here comes the doper, looking for a snack. He quickly discovered my cheeseburger. Took it, had a huge bite, and promptly spit it in the trash. He saw me and my buddy laughing big time, and knew he was had.

Only one comes to mind right now.

While working at Burger King, I used to play pranks on the manager all the time. I would take a handi-wipe and roll it to look like a pe*is and stick it in the cash drawer. Then, when I asked for change and he opened the drawer, out it popped and he always blushed big time and would be left speechless.

I remember the time we went to get a bushel of oysters for our neighbor's party (driving her car)...my friend took several oysters out of the bag and hid them in back of the car trunk...(it was summer time)....A week or so later, my neighbor said that she had an "awful smell" in her car and could not find out what it was....she thought she had ran over an animal or something...

We worked together and one night she had to take me home.....the smell in that car was horrible! We had all the windows open....so I casually asked her...have you thoroughly checked the trunk?...Could be some of the oysters fell out back there...

One time, I replaced the Oreo cookie's cream fillings with white toothpaste. My father took the bait. Naturally, he had to spit it out because he didn't care for the taste.

I have about 2 more pranks to tell you. And its band related. I know i talk about band alot, but I think you might like to hear this.

1) My freshman year; My old section leader who is now an assistant front ensemble technician wanted to do a funny prank on our original front ensemble technician. Our front ensemble technician wears alot of american eagle clothes, most likely the polyester shirts and the long jeans with flipflops. Well one day my section leader printed about 20 pictures of our front ensemble technician's face so we can use it as masks. We hid them in our band binder so that way he couldn't see them. Then We all brought our own flip-flops, american eagle polyester shirts and we were already wearing our long jeans. It was during the school year by the way. Anyways... We were in the middle of our band rehearsal, and it was a beautiful evening. We all ducked behind our keyboards and started getting dressed, we had to act casual. We had to act like we were just getting a sip of drink since it was a 5-minute break. When it was time to go back into rehearsal, we jumped out behind our boards with the masks on and the whole band roared into laughter and our front ensemble technician was laughing as well. It was great.

2) I invited the whole front ensemble members to my house for a dinner to get to know each other my junior year in the summer break. We were on a dinner break which usually lasts for about an hour and a half. We decided to do a prank on our front ensemble technician again. We decided to call him saying that we were late and that they got lost along the way trying to get to my house. We arrived back at the high school before our front ensemble technician arrived. We ran into this tiny room that surprisingly fit all 20 of us. We ducked down in the room as if we were having a tornado watch. Our new section leader, whose about our age was on the phone and looking out in the door that has a small glass window. The walls was good enough for us for our front ensemble technician to not be able to see us but has glass windows too. Our section leader was talking to him saying that we would be back in a half hour while our front ensemble technician has no clue that we were already at the school. He was just playing on one of the marimbas that was already set up in the band room, waiting for us to come. And we were giggling and snickering in the room and it was so hot and tiny in there. Our front ensemble technician kept walking around, checking his phone, etc. Then our section leader decides to take a picture of our front ensemble technician of him playing on the marimba and sent it to him so he can get a clue that we were already here. So then we finally sent it and he gets the picture, he has no clue where it was coming from, so then he started to look around. In the band office, upstairs, in the hallway, in the ensemble rooms and the tech rooms. Then when he came back in the band room, we stood up and started laughing really hard. We were laughing so hard we were crying.

You know, that would be a great centerpiece for a cook out. Or make them in small pots like cupcakes and have one for each guest. **jillio writing this down for the next family cook out**

Don't forget the gummy worms.

And to think, now they make mint Oreos!:P

You're right! They would have to have gummi worms along with the dirt and the flowers! Thanks for the reminder.

**jillio adding this to the first note**

When I was in jazz band in high school, we had a sax player that was just downright annoying. He got on everyone's nerves. He used to set a little cup of water out with his reeds in in to soak. A couple of friends and I worked out that one of us would get him out in the hallway to talk or something, another would keep watch, and the third changed white vinegar for his water. Pickled reeds!

I think that would be super hard, whenever i try to open the crust of the oreo cookies they would just break easily. I don't know how you do that without breaking them!

Twist when pulling apart. That usually works for me. Now, I can't have them anymore.
