After reading Ginny's thread on Penile Reconstructive Surgery, it got me wondering about dirty tricks in general. We've all played tricks on others, and some of us can get pretty damn extreme. I would love to hear the tricks that people here have played on others.

My most extreme trick:

When I was in the Army, and single, I was stationed at WBAMC in El Paso, Texas and I lived in the barracks. There was one guy in the barracks who nobody liked. He was disliked for the simple reason that he was a brown-noser that loved to tell the 1SG about everyone's business. If you had a girl stay the night, and this guy found out, he would tell on you. If you parked behind the barracks and washed your car, and he found out, he would tell on you. This guy would tell on you for the smallest thing.

So anyways, one night, a large group of guys from the barracks decided to head over to Juarez, Mexico and hit some clubs. Well, the trouble-maker decided that he wanted to go out with us. So we all hit the clubs, and the trouble-maker ended up being one of the most obnoxious drunks I've ever seen. He was bragging about how he likes to snitch on people, and was making several of the other guys very mad. So one of the guys came up with a plan......

After getting several more drinks into the trouble-maker, getting him to the point of passing out, we bought him a $30 bus ticket to Phoenix. We put him in a seat, then put a coat over him...telling the driver that he wouldn't be a problem. The next morning, at formation, the 1SG was asking where the trouble-maker was. Nobody volunteered any information.
 
lol...that was good.

I suppose either one of these aren't "extreme" in that sense but here goes:

Once I composed a "shit bomb" out of an M-100, and a ziplock bag of dog feces.

<how to>...you take the ceiling light bulb out of the fixture and CAREFULLY break the glass from the bulb portion. Then...you ever so carefully attach the fuse to the filiment of the bulb. (That is the hard part) From that, make sure the light switch is turned "OFF" and place the bulb back in the socket. Then...take the bag of feces (paint, whatever) and duct tape it to the ceiling over the bulb.

The person comes in...flips the switch....it ignites the fuse and BOOM....your revenge is exacted.

There was that...or the time that I took and slipped a paperclip over the prongs of the plug of someone's computer CPU. <no surge suppressor> It was also set up on a wall switch. She walks in....flips on the switch....and...well, to be honest....I don't know for sure what happened. I can only imagine. <g>

Ahhhh...makes me sound terribly bitter, doesn't it?

Not really dirty tricks:

On April first, I spread an official looking memo around a company I used to work for detailing how the company was now going to be regulating restroom time, including issuing smart card for stall access, a computer system that timed how long you were in the stall - and which would open the door, set off an alarm and retract the toilet paper after 5 minutes. Pretty obvious it was a joke right? Well everybody liked it, but one guy took it seriously and was going to complain to his boss until someone had pity on him, took him aside and explained it to him.

Another time, I had been out of touch with Lost Cause for about ten years, and learned he was in the Seattle area. LC was always one for practical jokes.

I remembered how he used to play jokes on his mom and call her saying he was a police officer and had her son in jail. So I called him, saying I was a police officer in the city we grew up in, and explained in some detail that I (as an investigating police officer) had talked to me (STG) about some hijinks we did as a kid. Then I started questioning him about it.

I had LC going for a while - the first time I have ever heard him hem and haw, and try to come up with what to say. He was sweating it for a minute. Finally he caught on a little and I let him off the hook. Pay back is a bitch ain't it LC? :D
 
one of my bosses was cattin' around with a bunch of his staff, so we filled a blow up doll with helium tied it in the trunk of his car and when his wife opened the trunk out flew "Jessica"

:eek:
 
I once put a land mine right in the middle of a path that I knew some Viet Cong were going to use later in the day.
 
I had a good assortment of the usual college pranks.

Our dorm had free standing stalls all sides avaialble, I took clear packing tape and while a guy was inside wrapped the shower stall in clear packing tape.

Others includied during the night sneaking in a guys room while he was asleep abnd cranking the the heat up as far as it would go.

Or the adverse do to our nice cold winters going in opening thier window and turning the heat off.

Sometimes during the last hour before lights out there was a time when you could go to the gym, while a guy was down a few of us took his matress and replaced it with snow the same shape and size and covered it with his blankets and sheets, he was a hollaring when he got into bed that night.

Another stunt witht he clear poacking tap, was to tape a guy into his wall bunk while he slept.

One of my favorites was to sneak into the girls dorm and cross tie thier doors to each other so they couldn't get thier doors open

I was no saint as a child. We learned a "ring back" phone number that would cause the phone to ring. Phone Co. used this to test the phone I assume.

My older sister loved to sleep in on the weekends. The only thing that would get her out of bed was a phone call. I took those firecrackers that had two strings out the ends and taped them all up and down here bedroom door, dialed the ringback number and told her she had a phone call.

Not only did the firecracker scare the crap out of her but then the dead phone call topped it off. She beat my ass. It was worth it.
 
We change at work from everyday clothes to coveralls
