I know we all have some, and not like the ones that you read about in Stuff or Maxim, good jokes. I will start you off with a couple of mine, my Dad started it...

My father played a joke on his best friend years ago and gave me an idea for a similar prank on my buddy.

Dad: He took out an ad in his friends local paper to come out on Dec. 27 that said "free christmas tree removal....." and filled the rest in follwed with the friends phone number. He got soooooo many calls. (he retaliated by subscribing my father to "weiner dog" magazine)

Me: I took out an ad, following my fathers lead, regarding my friend. The ad I took out stated "Free siamese kittens, leaving town, joining navy" followed with his phone number. I did this from Nevada and he lived in No Cal at the time. Months went by and I totally forgot about it until I flew out there to visit everybody. He starts telling me this looonnnngggg story about him and this woman that he sort of jilted. She had two, catch this, siamese cats. (he hats cats) Then it happens, he brings up the ad. He said "So do you know what she did?? She took out this ad, blah, blah, blah,..." And he tells me how he was getting like a hundred calls a day because of it. It was all I could do not to pee my pants. The best part of it is he still has no idea that I did it, four years later.


Anybody else have any funny, harmless, pranks? It is about time for me to zing him again.

;)

Hold on I'm looking up Dick Clarks number.:)

I once ordered a free newsletter for adult bed wetters to be delivered to my best friend. I used his girlfriend's address... (good for a chuckle)

One of my favorites is quick and easy:

At a restaurant, when the person gets up to use the restroom or something, shove a wad of paper napkin into the bottom of his/her straw. Next time he/she takes a drink they get a big wet wad of paper.

Really nasty feeling. :D

(yeah, it's been done to me too... )

I took a screenshot of a program they use at work for testing products, made it the desktop, moved all the icons off the screen, then sat there laughing while the lab guys clicked on the desktop and wondered why the program wouldn't respond. Geek joke, but pretty funny.

I like telling servers at restaurants its my friends' birthdays (only the ones that HATE attention though). Juvenile but fun.

My forte is stealing. I'm really REALLY good at moving things or swiping stuff under people's noses, like sunglasses, wallets, keys, money.. I can do a bit of pickpocketing too. Add to that the fact that I'm a really good liar when I want to be,and I drive my friends insane.

Put a doorbell button under the carpet & wired it to the doorbell... Everytime mom ran the vacuum over it the dorbell rung. That was hillarious.
