best practical joke played on anyone?

Answer 1

I live in a house on my uni campus. The next door neighbours are having a pran war with us. We attempted to block out all sunlight from their house so we borded up their windows. However they were out when we did it so the joke was seeming ruined. Wrong! They thought they had been broken into which was even funnier.

To get back at us they bought builder's fences - those metal ones you see around construction sites - and put them the entire way around our house. At the same time they fabricated official university letters informing us that our immaturity was an extremly contagious disease and we were now in quarantine.

At uni we live in the cheaper accomodation and the posher people live in brand new halls which require swipe card access. They swipe a barcode on their keycards across some sort of screen (with laser underneath). After getting annoyed at the snobbish jibes of those in the posh accom, we put cellotape across the screen, which meant the laser was refracted and the cards could not be read. We locked out 400 people. Brilliant.

Answer 2

about 20 of us approx. used to hire out an island for the weekend in Loch Lomand, an amazing weekend it was ours in the evenings to do as we wanted but during the day the tourists all came across from the mainland in there boats to visit.

the only way to keep clean was go for a wash in the Loch so generally you washed your face and cleaned your teeth in the one and only toilet on the island, there was not one mirror in this place btw... .

as I had been winding my mates up, they all thought it would be funny to ensure that each time I went to the portaloo toilet thing, that there would be the black soap in there, I had no idea for 4 days, this crazy fuelled weekend why all the island visitors and kids where pointing at me, truly had no idea... . in fact didn`t care much at the time until I was told was walking about with a coal-mans face... .

bummer I typed all this and the Q, asked is what did I do... . stupid of me, reckon I should have read it in full before answering or had less to drink ;

Answer 3

The "worst" ever: A thin smear of anchovy paste underneath the driver's door handle to their car. The smell comes from "no where" (that they know of) and it's now on the seat belt, steering wheel, radio, inside door handle, EVERYTHING.. until they get to a sink to wash their hands, and by then the smell is sticking in their fingers pretty good no matter how hard they scrub.

This "optical illusion" is hilarious too! http://home.mn.rr.com/t1camp1/Focus.swf

Answer 4

Best joke pulled:
put a plastic severed hand in a shared fridge

One that I have in mind:
a plastic axe that drops half way into a door once it is opened or one that does straight down the side of the front door as it is opened.

Lord of mischeif will return...

Answer 5

Years ago on Beadle's about, there was a photographer's assistant at a Mafia wedding who had to "marry" the bride to be because the police had arrested the groom.

The poor sod was strong-armed into it and looked green with panic.

So funny and still makes me smile all these years later.

Answer 6

I hate practical jokes.

Answer 7

It's quite excruciating (but also very cruel) if you have a party, give someone alcohol-free drinks but pretend it's booze and get everyone else in on it to act really drunk (the victim will usually carry along too as if they are). Then everyone suddenly stops. Ow.

Answer 8

This seems really old school, but it's still really funny. If you have a sprayer with your kitchen sink, tape down the trigger with clear tape, this way no one will notice! But make sure you get your target instead of innocent bystanders. Have fun and good luck!

Answer 9

My sister and I put Peanut butter and choclate spread on an old pair of white boxer shorts and left it on the kitchen counter for our brother to find in the morning...ha! Was very funny. Always works like a bomb!!

Answer 10

when i was a bobby i used to teach the youngsters...one night we went to an alarm and i sent the sprog off to look around...he was under the impression that our other crew mate had a poodle as a dog.....
the crewmate turned up with solomon the rottweiller and i went off to walk him
crewmate persuades the sprog to hide and jump out on the "poodle" and i...which he does!

funniest thing i ever saw was the sprog being chased down the street by the rotty...hollering as we stood and watched

he made it to the panda car.....just locked himself in and the rotty savaged the windows...salad days of my youth
