One I thought was funny.....Three male friends were riding in a pickup..all sitting in the front seat....they are teenagers and were just cruisin around on friday night lookin for trouble I guess....whenever they drove past the community hangout ...the friend sitting next to passenger door would lean down like he was tying his shoe...but from the outside it made it look like the driver and middle passenger (two guys) were snuggled up next to each other in the front seat of the truck.

I know it's kinda lame but I can't help but laugh when I think of it..

I'm going to try this on Monday.
 
I helped put a managers car in the overhead in the lumber department with a forklift. Only 16' from the floor in the racking 🙂

Now that was interesting.

We didn't get to see the end reult of our disgusting prank but we had a lot of ideas about how it went.

OMG I BOUGHT THAT!

:Q Did you eat it 😉

was it smooth or chunky?😕
 
Alright when I was in 7th grade, I didn't really like my science teacher, and for a while, I had an A-/B+ instead of my usual A. Well it just so happened that we got progress reports on April fools day. I asked my teacher to write down a bad grade and a bunch of stuff in the comments section. Needless to say when I got home and my mom saw the C- on the paper, she flipped her lid. She was so incredibly mad that the teacher would give me a grade like that. I managed to keep a straight face and told her that I thought I was doing pretty well. I led her on for about 1/2 hour. When she was just about to call me teacher, I told her. She was relieved to hear that I had an A, but also pretty upset about the whole thing.

EDIT: Also I have to add this one.

Last year after a tennis match we stopped at burger king. We are sitting there eating and this guy is like "Hey Jeff here's $3 go buy me a pop and you can just keep the change." I'm thinking, "hey I go stand in line and I get $1.50," so I agree, and while in line I see the kid and a few others standing near my food. So I yell out to one of the kids, "hey make sure he doesn't steal my cheeseburger". He says that the kid isnt taking anything, and then the few that were near it go sit back down. I come back with the pop and everyone looks kinda suspicous, and the kid who was near my cheeseburger was standing outside. So of course I open it up, and there is this huge dead frog sitting right in the middle of it. The kid was upset that it didn't go as planned, but still a valid attempt. He just should have tried it on someone dumber.

we have actually done something similar. we got a 10lb brick of dry ice and crushed it all up. from that we made MANY MANY bombs out of soda bottles which we would throw out dorm windows and scare teh crap out of people with. we also filled one of thoes 3 lieter sams club bottles with ice and water and placed it in a trash can on teh main street in town. needless to say it went off like a cannon and sent trash and teh top of the can about 15 feet into the air in broad daylight. freekin poliece brought in teh bomb squad. luckily i just dropped it in out of the car window as we slowly drove by so we were long gone by teh time teh cops got there. man was that good

The worst I've seen is this...

Two of my friends were having a prank war. One of them always left their car keys in their locker. In the middle of the day the other friend take's the keys that that friend left in her locker and proceeds to steal her car, then drives it back to her driveway. Another guy drives by, picks up the "theif" and returns him to school. This guy put the keys back in her locker and pretended like nothing happened. She flipped when her car was nowhere to be found.
 
In my HighSchool days, we used to have these assigned combination locks on all the lockers. The principal and some staff had keys for the back of the locks to get into them when they deemed necessary. So, because these were custom locks, they re-used them year after year. Well, freshman year I just thought they were inventoried and re-assigned, but, nope.

Sophomore year one of my friends let me know the secret (ha!). He got stuck as part of a group that: Each year they moved the locks on all the lockers to one of the adjacent lockers (origin would be '5' on your numlock pad, and it could be any surrounding key for the new year). Whatever method they chose, they did the same for ALL the lockers in the school. They wrapped the ends over where a column/row ended, as necessary.

Well, the new year came and we got our locker assignments. It took about 3 tries to find where my lock moved from the previous years locker. Throughout the year, after after-school activities while waiting for my ride, I'd open that locker and flip everything upside down or other odd stuff but nothing vandalism or theft wise. Lots of times I'd take the lock and put it back on so it was backwards (combo facing the locker instead of outside).

Lame, but, it had to be weird for whoever had that locker!

If I were you I would have eaten the sandwich then sued Burger King for millions for having a dead frog on your whopper.

I did much mischief in high school, mainly involving toilet paper and fireworks, I'd love to roll a friends house then set off a string of black-cat firecrackers as we we leaving🙂

But the best hing I ever saw, I can't believe I wasn't in on it.🙁 I was at college in a very small town in Tennessee, they only had these 2 security guards at night, one old guy one big fat guy.

Every night they would go around to all the buildings and check that they were empty and lock them up. My dorm was right across from the 2 story science building. A friend came in to tell me to come out side and watch something.

The 2 guards pull up in their car, the gointot the bottom floor. (the building was on a hill so their were entrances on both floors) as soon as they entered about a dozen guys dressed in black come running from behind the building. the used duct tape to wrap a buch of times around the handles of the building so they couldn't leave. They did this to all exits except for one on the 2nd floor furthermost away.

While some were doing the doors the reset had 2 car jacks and cinder blocks. the jacked the security car up and took off all 4 wheels....did I mention we were on a hill? about a quarter of a mile long? they rolled the tires down the hill, threw the lug nuts into woods on the other side of the street. then they dissappared. it all took like 2 minutes. it took the guards like a half hour to find their way out. my whole dorm was out there laughing.😀

very funny.
 
my town used to have a Naval Base up until 8 years ago, which was there from the 50's or so. The high school i attended was the Jets and the Naval Base gave us an old out-of-commission jet fighter. Well, we went and pushed it away from the front of the school and into the streets. Was waay fun, too bad we got detention for it. Since then, they put locks on the wheels and chain it down.
 
In highschool a few things were...

bringing a screwdriver to school and removing all of the door handles

welding lockers shut with oxy acetelyne torch from the autoshop (this one was extra good because it involved a torch). I remember i was in the hall welding the lockers and my friends were trying to give me cover (thinking back i suppose the cover was pretty futile) and the english teacher walked by... he was just out of college and he's like "whatever" and just keep walking.

in our highschool (like every other high school i assume) there was a hallway with pictures of all the championship sports teams. I was never on any sports team, but i wanted on that wall so a few of us took a black and white picture of ourselves framed it and hot glued it to the wall. 5 years later and my friend's little bro says it's still there.

umm.. a good one was filling up a garbage can with water in the showers and leaning it up against a classroom door os when they opened it, there was water a plenty! ahh... the people we soaked.


 
A few years ago, I went to pickup a friend to go to a party or whatever. At the entrance to his neighborhood, there was a run-over cat. He said it had been there a few weeks. At the end of the night, we passed a car in his neighborhood where some poor idiot had left his window open. We looked at each other in that moment of epiphany, and drove off to get the cat and laughing hysterically. He used some rubber gloves to pick it up and hold it out the window on the return. Even driving at 30 mph with both windows down and my head hanging out, the stench was disturbing. Unfortunately, for us, on one of the turns, the front shoulders and head fell off. Finally it was tossed gently into the drivers seat.
