April Fools Pranks

[~Melissa~]

Is anyone a prankster and have any interesting stories to share?

 

My co-workers and I decided we are going to play some jokes on our boss. He's a good guy and will get a kick out of it. Hey, it's all in fun, right?! We're making cookies made with salt instead of sugar and changing his phone/caller id to say "Mr. Kitten" LOL We need more ideas but so far I think we're doing pretty good.

 

Ah, I heart this holiday.

My mom's b-day is on April fools day so my brother and I have a lot of prankster practice. Here a few that we've used and a few that are good for the office.

- flip everything in the room,office upside down

- open a can of tuna a few days prior and hide it really well

- fill the room/office with bubble wrap or those popcorn packing things

- with a pen, pop out a few keys on his keyboard and put them back in the wrong location

- saran wrap over the toliet... my mom is still mad about that one

- remove the contents of the salt shaker and fill with sugar... do the same to the sugar

- add a few drops of Tabasco to the coffee creamer / half & half

 

Thats all I can think of right now. I'll let you know if I come up with anything genius. After reading these, I'm surprised that my mom didn't disown me!

OMG, I think I will do a few of theses things at the office. I can't wait. Hee hee!

If he has a desktop PC (not a laptop or Mac).... hit Control+Alt+down arrow. It will turn his screen upside down and really mess with him. (you do Control+Alt+up arrow to return to normal).

Ok....I almost spit my coffee out reading the tobasco in the creamer!!! That's just wrong!!! hahahahahaha But I am so mad at myself for not having thought that one up before now! hehehe

Ok, I know I've posted these before, but they're still the favorite ones I've done in the past.... we had this one lady who was really sweet in the office I worked in several years back- but lets just say she had a serious "dimmer switch" on her light bulbs. So here are the two things I did (not even waiting for April Fools Day).

 

1) She came to work one day commenting she had taken the tollway for the first time, but never saw where to put the tickets in and just kept hearing all the bells & whistles going off when she drove thru the tollway lanes. So I faked a letter from the North Texas Trollway Association (yes, deliberate misspelling that was never caught by her) and had the receptionist stamp it and hand it to her. The letter said she was caught violating the toll booths and had to pay $900 in fines within 24 hours or she'd be arrested. BUT- for the month of May, the NTTA was offering a special: if she used a black marker and wrote "tolltag" on a piece of 8x11 paper and affixed this to the upper part of her front passenger window, the NTTA would take a picture of her car when she drove thru the toll booths and would just bill her monthly. But she had to act immediately to avoid arrest. Signed, Shaquita/The Imprisonment Specialist. My field technicians sent me pics of that damn paper taped to her car window. I had to call her at the end of the day and tell her to remove it so she wouldn't get busted.

 

2) Several months later, I decided to mess around with her again. at the time, Nextel was just starting the 2-way radio/cell phone service, and caller ID wasn't available on the text messages. So I sent her a text message that said, "low battery. remove battery and rub on hand three times." Once she did that and had the battery put back into the 2-way, I texted her again with "mmmm.... that felt good." She never did figure that one out....

It won't work on my computer..weird. I'll have to try my one at home. If it works I'm going to use this one too. Thanks Maria!

OMG ROFL... that's hilarious. I'm at work and laughing so bad my eyes are tearing up. You're such a prankster! We have a toll bridge in Destin, I wonder if I know anyone who would fall for this.

My mom LOVES April fools jokes! Every year when I lived at home she would stuff our shoes with toilet paper so it felt like our feet grew. It was funny.

Last year was her best year though. You know how older sinks have a speperate nossle for spraying? It looks like a little squirt gun kind of? Anyway, she taped (clear tape) the trigger. So when my dad woke up and turned the water on, instead of coming out of the faucet, he got super soaked from the sprayer! It was SOOO funny.
