Best pranks you've pulled

No such thing as a good prank. Never has been. Never will be.

Pranksters should be punched, regularly and repeatedly.

A mate of mine works in a store. I called the cops and said there was some issues with the store and that recently I was given a couple of fake 20 euro notes by the same cashier and described my mate.

I then called my mate in work and said a mutual fried of our was trying to pull a prank on him and and hired two people to act like cops and come in and question him about fake notes and that he should mess with them.

The cops arrived and started asking questions and my mate starts going "fake notes, ye I print em in the back I have a whole machine to do it, I've been doing it for years, I'm surprised it took you idiots this long to come in and ask me about them"

They say they want to take him to the station and try and arrest him and he gets all angry saying this is going far enough and resists the arrest so they call like 2 or 3 cop cars for back up.

It took a couple of hours to explain that one and get the mess cleared up!

Never happened.

Back in 2009 I used in a place called AV Import. ( Closed now ) I loved playing jokes.

We where on a 4 day week. I would get Fridays off and the girl in the office would get Monday's off.

This Monday she rings me in the office about 9 or 10 in the morning saying the Garda knocked on her door ( and all the Neighbors ) asking her to leave the house as there was a pipe bomb found a few doors down. ( Actually found the news story http://www.4ie.ie/irish_news.asp?id=88765 )

So I had the idea to make a bomb and leave it under her desk for the next day. Myself and one of the Engineers made this ( see attached )

I did video tape her reaction but lost the recording. But she screamed the place down.

( We did think about putting it under her car .. But then thought things might get out of hand )

Worked in a large sales team. Friend broke his leg in bike accident that was other driver's fault. Kept going on and on about how much money he might get. He was thinking 8k minimum maybe even 10k. He was expecting them to call with an offer.
Had a brainwave and went to one of the other lads and asked him to pretend to be from the insurance company and offer something small. He wouldn't as he'd only recognize his voice so we went to one of the 'new' guys.
Call came in and highest they'd go is 1k. He was spewing on the phone, saying he wanted to speak to a manager and it was ridiculous etc etc.
I sat beside him and could see the other guy while on the call, he was laughing his head off. I had to try keep a straight face.
'Insurance guy' said he'd speak to his manager and call him back.
We went for a cigarette and he was livid, and I was being all sympathetic etc.
Went back. 'Insurance' guy rang and as a concession increased the offer to 1,200.
Again he goes mad on the phone and was nearly shouting at this stage. Refused to NOT speak to the manager.
Insurance guy finally says OK she'll take your call. I'm passing you through and her name is 'x' (my name).
He freezes, takes a few seconds before looking up at me, I am laughing my ass off. Still takes a few seconds for him to realize. Cue expletives....

He never really saw the funny side and made out I could have sabotaged the real offer....

Best prank I ever played

Step 1. Take a screenshot of of coworkers desktop.
Step 2. Set that screenshot as the background of windows.
Step 3. Hide the taskbar
Step 4. Move all desktop icons into a new folder and set the folder to be hidden.
Step 5. Enjoy view of coworker trying to figure out why windows is broken.

Did this recently enough to someon, took the lad a couple of hours to figure it out.

One of my buddies was working on a building site in Australia. A lad there left his phone in the canteen one afternoon and they swapped the numbers for his current girlfriend and that of his ex while keeping the names intact.

Apparently he went home that evening and started sending loads of sex texts to his ex as opposed to his current one. Brilliant.

I started roaring about a tracker mortgage on a bus and me mate threw ****e out the window as it got stuck in the jacks and wouldn't flush and landed on the conservatory of his girlfriends parent's house then I asked them for directions to the station during which 2 guys walked by with a sheet of plywood and I was replaced by a female midget who threw a fanny pad doused in beetroot juice at a nun who whipped of her habit and underneath wore a tee shirt saying dip me in chocolate and throw me to the lesbians which I duly did but they were my 2 mates dressed up as lesbians and one of them is allergic to nuts which traces of which the chocolate contained and he pretended to die but the chocolate spread was nut-free.

They guessed it was one of the students and they took all privileges away from the entire student body until they owned up. Got a 3 day suspension. But the guys were heroes!

Priviliges, what kind of school was this ****in yuppies.

Yuppies are professionals. School is for students. Privileges include television, allow to use walkmen (long time ago), tuck shop. Video on a sunday. Watching sport to get out of study. Plenty of things really.

Going off track now though.
