    One time, on a camping trip with one of my friends, I tied up the two zippers on his tent while he was asleep, so that he couldn't get out in the morning. He spent about 45 minutes yelling at us to let him out. Finally he gave up, and we let him out just before we about to pack up.

    Building of drewprop's little story, I've had intermittent bathroom stall battles with various friends over the years. But we don't play lights out. We ball up wet paper towels and throw them at each other. When you're taking a two, you're very vulnerable.



    Other than that, I've been involved in some pretty heavy stuff in highschool, but it just isn't as cool when I tell other people. Of course, the whopper is about to come this spring, and it's entirely confidential.

    I once wrote a very simple AppleScript and placed it in the Startup Items folder in the System Folder of a coworker's computer. Here's the script:



    tell application "Finder"

    Shut Down

    end tell

    Easier: hydrogen peroxide in Selsan Blue. The H2O2 strips the hair, the SB dye infuses.



    They end up smurf blue.

    How well does this work? I would think that you need to get some pretty heavy duty peroxide. The stuff from the drug store is only 3%.

    Back in college, my fiance and I were just leaving to spend spring break on the beaches of Mexico. I was drinking a drink without a lid on it, and every time he'd shift gears, he'd jerk the car in such a way that my drink spilled down the front of my shirt.



    I laughingly said to him, "If you do that again, you'll be sorry." Of course he did it again.



    So, I poured my entire drink over his head.



    He was furious. He didn't say a word, but headed back to his house to shower and clean out the car.



    I never do stuff like that; and even to this day, I can't believe I did it then.



    He got over it. hehe.

    Well, he didn't speak to me for about an hour while all the cleaning up was going on.



    But after that, no problem. Who could stay angry long when leaving for a week on the beach?



    Plus, I never did stuff like that, and he knew it. So it was a brief aberration that he eventually took in his stride.



    And, he learned that when I said I would do something, I would do it!

    ahh, where to begin

    when i was packing up my stuff to move out of my old apartment, i was getting pissed at my now ex room mate for not doing his share,and instead, spending his time dicking around on his crappy gateway.

    so when he went to work, so did i.



    i'd set up an automated task that would launch a browser window and go to goatse every hour on the hour starting 2 weeks from then.



    it would have been the perfect prank, except for one of his friends found out and spilled the beans



    another one:

    back in middle school, the school had just upgraded all of their systems with at ease 3.0. my friend and i loved finding every single loophole in that system that we could.

    we found out that while you could not access certain directories via the finder, you could save a file to a prohibited directory. i had found this sound file on one of the early mac addict disks, which simply said"ITS OFFICIAL, YOU SUCK!"

    i took this file and opened it with quicktime and then saved it in the system folder titled "startupmovie.mov"



    every time the computer would boot or reboot, everyone would hear it.

    Ah lets see. Back in elementary school, my first prank was in kindergarden. I flushed toilet paper down the toilet (a big no no), and ended up flooding the entire basement of the school. I stole the teacher's password for all the macs in the mac lab and created a desktop that had a stick dude tiled.



    I didn't do much in middle school except for stealing the school's software: Hypercard Studio, some Apple presentation software, Quicktime VR Studio, ect. All carried out on hundreds of floppy disks. Oh and I got the password for all the Macs in Home Ec and had Jared from MacAddict sing on startup.



    I won't admit to any computer pranks I may or may not have done in High School except for the one where I changed the background image loaded for student users from something blue to the picture of Heidi Klum posted on a thread in AO a while back. Of course now I am a student intern with the IT people, I can't really admit or even do anything. Stupid responsibilities.



    Last year all of my friends were hanging out at the mall, when I decided "Hey lets go silly-string someone." Boy do I regret that. So, because we all went in separate directions, a few of us met up and decided to prank the others. We loaded up on TP and silly-string. Friend 1 (Brian), and I would go silly string friend 2's car (Tyler), while friend 3 (Adam) and friend 3 (Cheryl) distracted Tyler and friend 5 (Matt). So Brian and I head out to one of the parking lots and wait for the call from Adam. I get a call: "All clear." So we head out to find Tyler's car. Brian stops and says "This is it" so we goto work.



    As we were TP-ing and silly-stringing the car people walked by shouting encouragement and all that. We finished up and went in to meet everyone at the other end of the mall. Brian suggests we all go to Wendy's to get some food. So we all head out to our cars. I notice that Tyler is heading out to the same parking lot that we are, so I ask him "Hey Tyler, where did you park?" He reply's "In the lot next to Macy's." Brian, Adam, Cheryl, and I all look at each other and go "****." Tyler figures out that we tried to prank his car, but by then we all were racing to my car. I told Adam to drive my car around, drop us off and come back. Brian and I get out and start to remove the shit all over this unknown person's car.



    "Whoop! Whoop!" A Wackenhut van pulls up. We about sh#@ our pants. Brian and I looked at each other and just ran. We ended up sprinting a good 1/2 mile along the parking lot around the mall before the van gaveup. I called Adam and he picked us up. We all went to Wendy's. As we pulled up we notice that no one was there. It seemed a tad suspicious. So I told adam to keep the car running while Brian and I got out. We walked around for a bit and then BAM! Tyler and Matt leap out of the bushes and sillystring my car, then Brian and I. I screamed "You mother%*^#$@!!!!" and chased after them, leaping thru the bushes. Tyler had left his car on and was starting to drive away when Brian and I both lept onto the back of his car. We pulled out our silly-string cans and did his windshield before we realized that he was driving thru the parking lot and he had windshield wipers. So we tried to get the other parts of the car as best we could while still holding onto the roof of the car. Finally I give up and leap off, thankfully adam caught up with me and picked me up. I then noticed that Tyler sped off... DOWN 140!!! WITH BRIAN ON THE ROOF!!! He must have thought that I was the only one ontop of his car. Thankfully he must-have realized and stopped to let Brian in. Crazy times.





    <Man, I'm soo tired so this post is probably freaked up alot so please make suggestions so I can go back and fix it>

    One of my personal favorites is the good old air-horn grenade. You get one of those little airhorn-in-a-bottle compressed air thingys, wrap some duct tape over the button, and throw. Best done when your target is asleep.



    Damn, those things are LOUD. (120 dB)

    Better: shaving foam bombs.



    Takes a little preparation, but well worth it.



    Take a can of shaving cream (Barbasol works well - cheap, thin can, old-style foam), and chill it in liquid nitrogen.



    *CAREFULLY* remove the now brittle metal casing from the solid foam core.



    Place strategically.



    As it thaws (quickly), it expands... to a full can's worth of shaving cream.



    I have it on good reliable authority that about 20 of them will fill an old school VW Beetle to capacity.
