I college, called up one of the guys in my Quantitative Chemistry lab and impersonated the Chinese "Rab" Instructor/TA on his answering machine. Told him that his "concrusions on rab reports were verry verry simirar to is rab partner Rinda...we would need to taak after crass".

This was back before caller ID...so the guy thought it was legit and was about to crap a brick (since he was actually copying nearly all of his work off of Linda). I was going to play it up to see how he would approach the TA about it...but he started to really panic, so I fessed up.

Duct taped a police whistle to the bottom of my buddies truck. It would only sound once he hit 65-70 on the interstate.

I should also state that he was a DIY mechanic.

He pegged me in the face with it when he finally found it and figured out it was me.

Released 100 crickets in coworkers work truck.
Put a heavy duty zip tie on his drive shaft and didn't trim it. It would hit the exhaust heat shield and sounded like the biggest sewing machine ever coming through the parking lot.
Poured glitter in the A/C vents and turned the air on full blast while the truck was off.

All on different occasions. He deserved it. He got me just as bad.

Many many years ago I told my naive little wife (now ex) that the reason they planted pecan trees at certain distances apart was because if they were planted too close together they would grab each others roots and actually pull each other back into the ground!!

about 25/ years later I get this really mad text about her seriously telling her peers this at work....

Was in N'awlins with a group of coaches for a few days. Posted a pic of the youngest one on Craigslist in the MforM casual section titled "French Quarter Cock" with a description about being a married guy but looking for some NSA weekend fun, and included his number.

Dude's phone was blowing up all weekend with texts and dk pics. What made it even funnier is that despite knowing someone was screwing with him, he never once mentioned it and tried to hide it from us. Every few minutes - check phone - look of anger/disgust - delete - repeat.

So we finally paid a flaming ghey to run up and say "OMG - It's you!" and proceed to show him the ad.

Fun times.

Not really a practical joke, but the best way to piss off whole bowling alley on a Friday night is to play $10 worth of Lou Bega's Mambo Number 5. This was on an old school juke box with 25 cent songs.
I did it to a friend of mine except it was "Double Dutch Bus" about twenty times.

A mutual friend of ours heard about it and a couple of days later attempted to get me back doing the same thing but to some crappy Heart ballad. The second time the same stupid song came on, I went over to the jukebox and unplugged it.
Problem solved

I did that once at Burger King. Right before Christmas. They had a jukebox with carols. I programmed it to play "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" repeatedly.

An old roommate was sleeping with a chick that also had some BBC on the reg. Overheard my roommate talking about how he was worried she was going to give him the HIV. While he was on his way home I told him he had a letter taped to our door and asked if he wanted me to see what it was about. Pretended to read our a letter from the girl saying she recently tested positive for HIV. Phone went silent and I got scared and told him it was all a joke. He told me he let go of the steering wheel and was prepared to crash/kill himself.

April Fools joke where me and this chick I was banging called her mom to say she was pregnant. Mom went off her meds and lost her shite. It was an all day event of phone calls from disappointment to anger to sadness to wanting to meet my family and asking if we were gonna marry. It was awesome.

It really is. Get this Pavoloco83 - it took place at a livestock auction facility. No joke.

I installed a new faucet in our kitchen. My wife was on the sofa so I said, "look at this" and started waiving my hand in front of the faucet while turning it on and off with the other hand she couldn't see. Sightline to see me waiving and the water come on and not see me using my hand to actually turn it on was perfect. I went on and about how cool it was.

She came over to try it out, no luck. Stood there for 5m, nothing. About 2 hours later I walked by and she her walk up and waive at the sink.

Gold Jerry!

Long ago when I'd hardly left home my mom sent me a bunch of Easter candy. I was trying to lose weight and didn't want it. So I hid it in a friend's office. Everywhere. It drove him crazy trying to figure out why this was happening. His best theory was a one of the secretaries was interested in him. Nope. 4 years later he found another piece of chocolate. And he still has no clue.

Me and a buddy were out drinking at the Happy Note. There was a juke box in the place that had the Miami Vice soundtrack on it for some reason. Granted, this was early/mid 90's, so the fact that the album was on it was way out of place among all the other albums. Anyway, we put $10.00 worth of the Miami Vice Theme Song playing over and over. It would play a couple of times, a few songs, then the Miami Vice theme song, then a song, Miami Vice, etc.

Relatives got fancy new voice mail with the phone company, where your greeting and messages are on their server.

They weren't sure how to use it, so I set up their greeting for them: "Thank you for calling the Internal Revenue Service audit request line. Your request has been registered, and an audit team will contact you soon to schedule your first meeting. Please have all paperwork available."

Other relatives called us a couple weeks later saying they had not been able to get in touch with them. They said they called and called, but they "keep getting the damned IRS."
