Suggestions for pranks to play on my colleagues desk?

Question

he's gone away for a few days and is a clean freak, any suggestions for things we can do to his desk? got some ideas just lookin for more?

Answer 1

switch the m and n keys over on the keyboard. and sit back and watch the confusion

also, a good one is to get a non gel shaving foam and freeze it. Take it to work, then cut the bottom off and leave it in your colleges draw. as the foam melts, in expands enormously.

Answer 2

Here's a trick you can do on his computer if he doesn't have a password and has powerpoint.

make sure there's no windows open on his monitor, press control+prtscrn(to the right of the F keys at the top of the keyboard) this takes a pic of whatever is on the screen at the time.
Go into power point, right click on the screen and click PASTE. You should now have a picture of his desktop. When you fit the picture to the screen, he can't tell the difference.
after that be creative.

some ideas:
1)add the text "I just don't wan't to live anymore" and ten or more completely black slides.(Format-background)
2)do some freaky face and a scream sound effect on the 2nd slide, turn his speakers all the way up
3)if u save the picture(right click-"save as picture") you can make the screen pic the background of the slides, which is alot easier than copy-pasting 10,000 times
you can just keep adding text, the more the better, the longer he'll be stuck clicking. make it funny. see

Answer 3

Muhahahaha! Take all of the supplies he has "neatly" organized and put them in all teh wrong places. (i.e.- staples in the paper clip box, paperclips in the stapler box.) Then, unplug his computer. :D This is hilarious. Once he calls the TechSupport or what ever you call the seventeen year old kid who works on your computers, say something to the point of that it would be funny if it was something so simple and over looked....
You don't want to do anything too darastic, that could get you in serious trouble. But the one that I always get played on me, Yes, I'm also a neat freak.... I have seperate jars for pennies, dimes, nickles, quarters, and dollars in the cupboard! Is this:
I have my desk drawer neatly organized. Red pens ot the far left, blue to the right of them, black to the right of the blue. Then come the supplies boxes. Colored paper clips are organized into each seperate color, in little baggies. (Like for jewelery) Then plain paperclips. Then come the staples, again, colored and plain. (We have a coding system for urgent/nonurgent things at the office) Then are the large gold brads, then medium-large, then medium, then small, the x-small. Finally, there's one box of asprin- a must have.
Now my drawer space is cut in half. So anything else comes in that area, in a neat order. My collegues always, always, ALWAYS! get into my desk and switch the pen inks so I think I'm using RED for VERY URGENT! But, I'm using black, for Non-Urgent. 8-| Then they switch all of my paperclips. And then they take all of my lipsticks on the other side and hide them somewhere stupid. And, my LEAST favorite part. My big coffee mug that I use is ALWAYS hidden in a new spot. And they won't tell me where. Happy pranking!

Answer 4

I know a joke but it's not for a desk.While they are sleeping get 2 flash lights spread them about 3 feet apart a couple feet of the floor then get a tape recording of a semi truck passing by and when he starts to wake up make sure the flashlights are aimed at the bed, the ceiling or desk lamps are off, turn on the tape record and Yell at the top of your lungs:LOOK OUT FOR THE TRUCK!!
They will probably scream and try to roll away so they'll fall of the bed it will be hilarious.

Answer 5

Leave a pair of your fathers, smally, yellowing Y-fronts at the back of his top drawer in between some of the equipment (Stapler, File's- whatever) that he often uses. Natural human inquesition will take over and he'l pull them out, hold them up and then slowly realise exactly what they are. He may even do a little girly dancey fit with a few squeals if youre lucky. Dont make it obvious that you are all watching though cuz when he feels something different in his drawer he'l know straight away that its something dodgy.

Let us all know what you actuallly decise to do and how it goes. xxx

Answer 6

Since he's such a neat freak try cleaning out his desk of everything he owns and glue some of his things to the desk. Even glue things under.Also you would like to make the chair unstable and the desk breakable or put something on it so when sits he slips out or turn his desk upside down.

Answer 7

Take a screen shot of his display screen. This can be done by hitting print screen while looking at the desktop screen then open up paintbrush and pasting the image there. Save that file and remember where you put it. Next, move his icons off screen somewhere. Like put it in a folder in another directory. Then, go to your display settings on the computer. Then go to the display options and set the background file that you just created. It will look like their normal screen but when they click on an icon nothing will happen. It's great fun watching people reboot several times and try to load anti-virus software to take care of the problem. Enjoy.

Answer 8

i got two for you......
Go out and buy some fish. a bit of salmon works nicely and put it in a bag and take it up to your office. if his office chair has a plastic back (most do) then pop it off and put the fish in there and just pop the back back on.
If however the back doesn't come apart, then take out the bottom drawer next to his desk and insert the fish in there. Just slide the drawer back in, and no-one will be none the wiser!
in the sorta heat we are haveing now, it won't take long before the fish goes off and his desk area starts stinking!

Answer 9

OOOOH! fun! Put a clapper on his computer. You know, clap on, clap off... Just walk into his office while he's on it, and clap three times, and...

Also, one time a manager told me he could do anything I could do. I let him know I didn't agree, but he just waved me off and walked away. Being a machinist, I felt I had a few options open to me... Imagine his surprise the next day when he came in to find square wheels on his chair. He didn't even know how to change them back.

Also, if there's a lot of birds in the neighborhood, you could open his window and leave a pile of bird seed on the inside of the window sill. Close his office door. Birds are great painters.

Answer 10

Freeze a can of shaving cream. Open it with a can opener and put it in his desk or office. As it thaws it will expand at an incredible rate, filling the room.

Answer 11

Go to COSCO or Sam's Club and get a lot of aluminum foil. Wrap every single item on his desk in aluminum foil, the wrap his chair, computer, everything , make sure you wrap it tight and make it form fitting, then put everything back where it belongs.
