Various pranks old and new

These are prank I get in my e-mail. Enjoy!

About Time

This is a good way to pay back somebody who is always playing tricks. It has to be someone whose house you have access to. I did this to a friend who certainly was due some payback. All of his tricks were good natured, but jeez, there were just so many of them! Anyway, he went on vacation and asked me to take care of his apartment, get the mail, feed the fish, etc. I knew he would be coming back from the trip late at night, would be travel weary and had to go to work the next morning. Just as I figured he did not notice the time being changed on his alarm clock. Not only the alarm clock, but the TV, VCR, microwave, and so on.

Every clock in his place went on daylight savings time a month before everybody else did. The timing worked out just right for this prank since my friend was sort of out of it from jet lag. He never caught on until he got to work exactly one hour early the next morning. Gotcha!


Jacked Up

Here's a little trick that can be beneficial to society by helping to keep drunks off of the roads. The victim in this case is a drunk who shouldn't be driving anyway. Locate the drunk's car at his local watering hole. Come supplied with a jack and several blocks of wood. Jack up the back end of the car (or front end for front wheel drives) and place wood blocks under the car to keep the tires an inch or so off the ground.

The drunk will come staggering to his vehicle, starts it up, but then his wheels will spin but he won't go anywhere.


Newspaper Thief Cure

We had a problem with one of our neighbors stealing our morning newspaper out of the driveway about 2 or 3 times a week. I had to lose a little sleep but came up with an effective cure. The materials needed are a bottle or two of ink and some condoms. I put some ink into a condom, folded it over, and put this inside the paper. The thief presumably got the message in an indelible way because after my rigged up paper was stolen, this never happened again.

Mentos and Coke Prank

By now everybody with an internet connection knows what happens when you introduce a mentos mint into a bottle of coke. My roommate at college kept helping himself to my supply of diet cokes and never got around to replacing
the drinks so I decided to play a little trick. I bored a small hole in the middle of the mentos mint and tied a piece of thread through the hole. I then removed the cap off of a bottle of diet coke and carefully hung the mint in the bottle opening with the thread going down the outside of the bottle. I then replaced the cap and trimmed off the excess thread so you could not see the mint under the bottle cap.
Expecting a huge mess, I arranged some towels to look as if they were carelessly tossed around in order to protect the electronics (since he is a slob as well as a mooch, I figured I'd be stuck with the cleanup detail).

As it turned out, the trap worked way better than I expected. While I was out, my roommate grabbed the coke and then actually left the dorm room with it. He was down the hall talking to some other students when he opened the bottle and the geyser let loose. The other students still believe he did this on purpose since they got soaked with most of the spray. Now they're scheming up pranks to play against him for paybacks. I couldn't have planned it out any better.
