*I've heard of a guy* dabbing some pepper spray onto a computer mouse... you don't notice anything until you touch your face or go pee.Pepper spray the ceiling tile over his desk.
Practical jokes are neither practical or jokes, but are great way to get your ass kicked.
Being in an IT shop we have a requirement to lock our PC’s when we leave our desk area. Many people on my team have found the images on their screen reversed and upside down, different keyboard mapping and in Chinese. Another fun one is to take a screenshot of their desktop and then hide all the folders and shortcuts. Then you set the new picture as the desktop background. So when they click on a shortcut or folder nothing happens.
Then there is the tortilla bomb....moisten a tortilla and put it into a balloon, tie it and the hide it somewhere out of the way. Some day down the road it will produce enough gas to burst the balloon...and the odor is significant.
One of the guys at the office loves snickers...so we took a big bag of the snack size snickers and carefully removed all the snickers and closed the wrappers. Then we put them into a large plastic container you would get a bulk amount of pretzels in and put it on his desk. When he came in and saw it he about jumped for joy until he picked it up and realized they were all empty. He never figured out who did it.
Another guy we put a pick Chevy bow tie over the Chevy emblem on his truck...he never saw it until his wife said something about it a week later.
All of those are pure gold hahahahahaIn my office a couple years ago, someone tried to start a practical joke war on people, and unfortunately I was the victim of one of his practical jokes. After that he leaned that payback is a bitch when over a period of 8 years I delighted in doing the following to said individual:
1. Listing his truck for sale for a low low price on Craig’s list. Included his phone # and the information that he worked night shift so it was easiest to reach him between the hours of 11pm and 5 am.
2. Bought “the clapper” off of amazon, set the sensitivity level to max and plunged in his computer. Would walk by his office and accidentally drop things.
3. Zip tied a harmonica to his undercarriage on his truck.
4. Took the bottom off his office chair and inserted one raw shrimp, and the re assembled.
5. Grabbed a bunch of his buisness cards, wrote “sorry I accidentally, hit your car” and would randomly leave them under people windshield wipers at Walmart.
Anyone have any other suggestions of what I can do in the future or other previous similar stories?
I might have blown up something like 1,163 balloons and put them in my bosses office when he was off for a few days....left Siren/light switches on, hole punches in AC vents, nothing as mean as putting OC spray on things....that’s just evil!
Ya work with the tools at hand...I might have blown up something like 1,163 balloons and put them in my bosses office when he was off for a few days....left Siren/light switches on, hole punches in AC vents, nothing as mean as putting OC spray on things....that’s just evil!
I have been "taser grenaded" where you pull the cartridge, start a discharge cycle and toss the taser into the car of someone (me in this case). I grabbed it and held it to me leg for a second or so to make it show a use cycle on his next discharge history downloadNot when it’s an every day tool. You’ll kill somebody with a capacitor before you will with OC. I’ve never even considered an electricity-based scenario, to include tasers of all sorts...too much risk...and yes, I’ve been tased before in a training session. Ain’t gonna go there.
In my experience, Tantalum caps are the loudest.In our instrumentation shop, when someone took vacation, they'd find an electrolytic capacitor had been wired across the AC power switch inside their work bench when they returned... About as loud as a twelve gauge...
Hilarity would ensue...
