On Par With "Can You Touch Your Elbows Together Behind Your Back" But Maybe A Scoach More Awesome

Pleasepleaseplease don't let me forget to do this to Bryan tonight (not what you think)... Prank your friends! Tell them that if you tilt your head back and pretend you’re shaking a salt shaker into your mouth, you will actually taste salt.

Then stand back and watch.
Laugh.

I forget where I heard this, but man, do I love it. What can I say? It's Thursday and I'm simple.

Feel free to do this to a friend today in celebration of Earth Day. I mean, I have no idea what this might have to do with environmentalism, but whatever. It's fun not wrapped in plastic, mkay?

And please leave your fave prank in the comments section so that my life is full and happy.

xo,
S

I like slathering Vaseline on doorknobs. It's an oldie but a goodie.

Ketchup packets underneath the toilet seat, under those two little bumps...grounded once for this as Dad used the restroom before my sister got there...

While on a long drive home (3 or 4 hours) with my husband, I pretend to be fiddling with the radio, I flip the seat heat on his side to hot when he's not looking. A little while later he squirms, frowns, flips it off. A few miles on he is dozing in the passenger seat. I do it again. And later, again. He hates seat heat. He calls it the bacon burner. We are near home when he says crossly, "I my seat heat keeps coming on! I think there's a malfunction!" I laughed so hard I had to pull over.

Tell your friend you think your husband is cheating on you (jerk!) and have her call xxx-xxx-xxxx (funeral home) and ask for supposed mistress Myra Maines.

My favorite remains the rubber band around the sink sprayer trick; NEVER fails to make me laugh. Victims tend to look eerily like wet, angry chickens for some reason.

Unscrew the shower head and dump kool-aid in--stains the next patron.... or better yet, when someone is showering and forgets to lock the door--run in and dump a cup of flour on them over the curtain--pretty much makes glue--but you better run for your life and be ready for payback!!

Fun At Work.
1. Look up Dial a Prayer
2. Place them on Hold
3. Tell/overhead page most uptight-churchy-lady in next department that the call is for her.
OR
Take a Tootsie Roll and roll it into your hand until it becomes snake like...fling it into a sandwich size Zip Lock bag. Breathe into it for condensation. Slip it into a patient's medical chart as a "sample", watch with horror as Lab buddies see you take a bite. (with a straight face and a hearty YUM on your lips)
Yeah, I love working in the medical field, such ripe ground for practical jokes.

Let your kids put a large tootsie roll in the neighborhood pool. In no time, it will clear out faster than you can say oops and they will have a little private oasis all to themselves!!!

A trick my grandfather taught me...White soap in the middle of bulls eye candies. (Some people don't call this particular candy bulls eyes, but that's the only way I know them. They're the round carmel ones with a sugary substance in the middle.) It takes awhile but it is well worth it. Never take one from anyone who's offering on April 1st. It may be me wanting to watch you to eat soap.

Once at a sleepover I filled my twin sister's hand with toothpaste while she was sleeping. You know, good ol' fashioned, white paste Colgate.

We then tickled her nose and instead of rubbing her nose and rubbing toothpaste all over her face, she sat up and rubbed HER EYES.

Um, yeah. I STILL feel bad to this day.

On your answering machine/voicemail leave the following message - Hello? (wait a few seconds) Hello? (wait a few seconds) Hello can you hear me? Oh well never mind its just the answering machine anyway. Leave a message and I'll get back to you.

Its amazing how many people it annoys. And how funny it is when you monitor the am and here them going - hello, hello, i can hear you, can you hear me?

Doesn't take much to amuse me some days
