Funny Pranks
If you want to have fun and enjoy a good laugh with people you know, consider playing funny pranks on each other.
About Pranks
A prank should be something simple that you can do to play a joke on someone who is close to you. Make sure that your intended victim will think that your actions are all in good fun and laugh with you, as opposed to getting angry.
Not everyone wants to be the object of funny pranks, and you should be respectful of those who would prefer to simply observe or not participate at all. Above all, make sure that your prank won't result in harm to the victim or damage to property. If one or both of those events occurs, the situation is no longer funny.
Examples of Funny Pranks
The following are examples of funny pranks you may want to play on your family, friends and coworkers:
- Put a small amount of salt on your victim's toothbrush so that the next time he or she uses, the toothpaste won't taste quite right.
- Take some superglue and paste the top of your victim's shampoo bottle closed. The object of your prank will likely spend at least a few minutes trying to open it.
- If you are looking for a prank to play on someone who is sleeping, apply some makeup to his or her face.
- Adding some gummy worms to a person's lunch is a way to get a good laugh in the middle of the day.
- Reset your victim's alarm clock for an hour or two earlier than the time they usually get up. A variation of this prank is to set the person's alarm clock to go off on Saturday morning if they usually sleep in on that day. Avoid setting the alarm later than the person really needs get up; doing so may cause problems with the person's job or school.
Office Pranks
If you are looking for an office prank that is easy to pull off, simply take a piece of clear adhesive tape and place it over the tracking ball of your victim's computer mouse. The ball won't turn and the person will quickly become frustrated with the "faulty" equipment.
Another easy prank that you can play on someone in your office is to unplug the keyboard from the computer, but only slightly. The object of the prank may not think to check the connections right away to find the source of the problem. If you do this one properly, your victim may think that the keyboard connection became loosened on its own and never realize that you were involved.
To have some fun with the water cooler, add a little rubber duck to the water when you change the bottle. (Be sure to sanitize it first.) You will need to pour some of the water out of the bottle to make room for your addition. Part of the fun with this prank is making note of the number of people who will get a drink out of the water cooler without noticing the toy at all.
Car Pranks
A good prank to play on a friend or family member that involves his or her vehicle involves an air freshener. The little pine trees have a pleasant scent, but not when they are opened all at once.
Take the air freshener and peel it open before hiding it somewhere in the vehicle. You can put it under a seat or a floor mat; the idea is to make your victim hunt for the source of the aroma. If the search goes on for a long time, you could offer to help out and then "find" the air freshener for him or her.
If you decide to start playing funny pranks on people you know, be prepared to be the object of one as well.
