Here's mine: Take some fishing line, I believe I used 30# or so, and tie someone's brake pedal up. You'll have to do some searching for where to tie it so they don't hit it with their foot, and also do some experimenting for strength. You want it so it doesn't break easily at all, but the victim should be able to break it. Also, it works best if the person is parked so they don't have to back up. So, the person drives away, and the first time they need to stop, they push the brake pedal some, nothing happens, they push harder, still nothing, they panic and push REAL hard, the line breaks, the brake pedal slams down, so hard they bash their head on the steering wheel. Fun for the whole family.

What's your favorite practical joke?

About all I do is sneak up behind my wife with an ice cold can of pop and touch it to her neck. 

My kids would always leave my car stereo cranked up to ten, which was a nice surprise when I started it up in the morning.  When we got them their own cars, I most certainly returned the favor - numerous times  TeddyR

My friend was crushing on a girl who we were all good friends with.  He was conflicted and at the time was siding on 'don't go there.'  So right before he went overseas for a week, to stir him up, I put his own number in his phone and saved it as her name and messaged himself along the lines of 'hey I really need to give you a proper going away.' etc etc.  Of course this came up with the name as that girl [he didn't notice the number was his] and he went quiet for a few minutes whilst he considered the ramifications of the message.

I wanted to let him squirm a while longer but someone mentioned it wasn't her and he got a little sad and embarrassed.

Sure I chuckled to myself about it, but in it was still a bit of a prick move to make.  Oops.   Bluesad

Andrew has a great one on the "Random Thoughts" about putting powdered milk in someone's sheets on a hot night.  I used that on a roommate who wouldn't stop ogling my girlfriend -- backfired though, since I had to share a room with him while he smelled like sour milk. 

We played a number of pretty hilarious pranks on him...his hygiene and personality were too poor for him to get a date, so he drove a fancy car as a surrogate penis (he literally scrimped and saved for five years to get this car). 

We considered getting as many maxi pads as we could and smear them with cranberry juice and attaching them to his car. 

What we settled on was dunking almost 100 tampons in cranberry juice, put them in a plastic-lined cardboard box, put a card on top that said "I BLEED FOR YOU -- LOVE, YOUR SECRET ADMIRER" and mailed it to him anonymously.

totally outrageous.  and you're still together?


       There used to be a magazine called "temp slave"  that was accounts from the then massive temp comunity about how hellish it was.  One practical joke I read about there was taking a pound of uncooked shrimp, unscrewing your boss or someone you dislikes chair and dumping them in and then screwing it back on and just waiting.

One we used to do is to get the phone book and make a list of EVERY pizza joint around. If we had three phones available, we'd split the list into three and each person would go through the list ordering pizza for the intended target. The idea was to place as many orders as possible as fast as possible, because almost every pizza joint was going to call back the phone number you gave them, which was the victim's number (this was before caller ID was popular). So, this person would get a 30-minute string of pizza joints calling to verify their order, followed by 4 or 5 that actually made and try to deliver the pizzas we ordered for them. Then, we would act like we were just walking by, the pizza dude would offer us the pizzas at a huge discount, and we'd buy some of them.

Find someone sitting under a balcony or something, get some fake barf (beef stew or some of those brown paper towels soaked in warm water, something that will feel real). Cup the barf in your hands over your mouth, stand over the victim making retching sounds. Release it when they look up, so they'll see it comming down at them, and you might even be able to get them right in the face.

Tell a close friend you're dying and can only be saved if he donates his (insert vital internal organ of choice) to you. Naturally he'll get tears in his eyes and instantly agree to everything you ask. (Don't laugh at this point or the joke will be ruined!) Only after a team of surgeons at the hospital has the friend prepped and shaved and full of needles and doped to the gills and the priest has done last rites and a lawyer gotten him to sign a living will---giving total control over his affairs to you, of course---do you climb off the table laughing and pointing at the friend's credulity. You get to go home, he has to lie there gassed on an operating table in a hospital gown, bum on display. (Be sure to take lots of pictures, too!) And on the way out of the hospital just point back down the hall and tell the accounting department, "He said he'll pay for it all." Oh, man, it's the best prank EVER, I swear, works great every time I do it. And if your friend comes home miffed at your sudden good health, just shout, "Dude, hey, it's a MIRACLE!!!"

Um, by the way, anybody have a right lung to spare by any chance? Anyone...?
