If he runs windows 98 you could do the autoexec.bat
echo: "Your computer has been infected with the Monkey B virus your hard drive will now format"
Pause

This worked on one of my old roomates.

There are no gags in there. That is why i started a new gag only thread.

Saran-wrap to toilet bowl.

hard boil all the eggs and put them back in the carton.

 

[MrBond]

Leave a messege for him. Say that while he was out, Mr Lyon called and would like to be called back. Leave the local zoo's phone number. Get creative with the names, Ellie Font, etc.

I did this to my roomate a couple years ago, he said he didn't fall for it, but judging from how embarassed he was when I asked about it, I knew he had

What if his preferred method for cooking eggs is to hard boil them?

Ah, ok. But wait, do you try to glue the shell back together or do you just stuff the scrambled eggs into the carton like that?

HAHAHA my wife just feel for the elly font one. hehhehehe

You can scramble the eggs inside the shell using ultrasonics. I'm sure that if you shook them long enough and hard enough, eventually they'd start mixing.

I'll be glued to this thread... I still haven't thought of something great to do for April Fool's Day. I'm just glad I didn't buy that 1500 pound pallet of yellow construction paper (under $100, 25,000 sheets or something ridiculous like that -ebay). I had initially considered completely covering the school where I work with yellow construction paper. More rain expected - that would have ruined it.

I emailed a couple of my girlfriends last April 1st to tell them I saw on CNN that John Schneider (Pa Kent on Smallville) died in a carwreck. The it got out of hand. They told their friends and then I had about dozen female friends near tears. Of course the tears turned to pure hate when I told them April fools.

I'm kinda dreading what will happen to me tomorrow. Unless they forgot, of course.

I called a friend and put on this very serious and professional tone in my voice and told him I was from his bank

Me: Hi is this Eric?
Him: Yeah who's this?
Me: This is Tom McArthur from Commerce Bank we noticed some suspicious activity on you account within the last couple of days. You're account is negative $600. Have you wrote any checks for large sums lately?
Him: No. $600?
Me: Yes sir. There's been alot of fraudlent use of checking accounts lately and that's why i'm calling you today. Am I correct that the last current balance on the account was $321.43? (I guessed it within like $20 bucks)
Him: Yes. What can I do?
Me: Unfortunately, in situations like this with account holders who don't have fraud insurance you are liable for the negative balance.
Him: You're kidding right? (really worried)
Me: No sir. Untill the fraud is apprehended the bill is still going to be posted on your account.
Him: Oh my god... I can't pay for it right now... This kinda crap always happens to me... Are you sure?
Me: HAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!

EDIT: There was more to it than that. But it still was funnier than hell!
Him: I'm gonna kill you!!!

I once called this guy who I loved making fun of, while he was at work. He didn't know it was me but boy did I get him going. I pretended to be a city works employee and ordered him to make changes to the parking lot or he would be in for a huge fine. LOL

My other friends were watching him go nuts at work trying to make the changes.

I was a bastard.

If you have a coffee room at work where people like to leave snacks for everyone, you can really have fun (also works at home on your spouse/kids/roommates). One thing to do is to cut either a piece of styrofoam or a block of wood to fit in a sheet cake pan and to liberally frost it. Place a knife or spatula nearby with plates and walk out (do this when nobody is looking). Alternately, you can take cotton balls and dip them one by one in chocolate/almondbark and let them set up. They look just like chocolate truffles or chocolate coated cherries, but leave cotton between victim's teeth that they'll be picking out for the rest of the day. I did the cake one at work with styrofoam once. People were trying so hard to cut a piece, and were wondering who the awful cook was and if it was rude to stop cutting.

From the urban dictionary.

the upper decker is a weapon of terror and should only be used on people who deserve it.

Hahahaha.

what is the upper decker?

 

[Match]

Get three mice from the local pet shop.
Put each in it's own jar with holes punched in the top for fresh air.
Place donated droppings from one of the mice in a fourth jar.
Place all four jars on your roommates bed with the empty one on it's side.

Note: this will also work with snakes, spiders, frogs, etc. It depends on what will work best with your roommate.
