Pranks & What Not

[MoparManJim]

I posted this thread over on another site, but I got thinking why not also post it here as well   

We are always talking about all kind of stuff on here. I was thinking about something that happen to me around 4 to 5 years ago.. a friend tried to play a prank one evening  . 

I'll start,

Back around 2005 or 06, a friend of mine one night waited to helloween to try and play a prank on me which backfired on him some what. On the evening I was working on my kickhen ceiling putting up a new one. I had a big wood pile out front that my cousin bought down, well I also had a small pile of wood pieces from the wood buggy. Well I'm going and coming from the small pile every now and then trying to find right pieces as the afew replacement boards (spacers) I took out needed replacing. Well around 8PM that night I hear a Ford STR or what the heck they are called.. anyways I know the sound, it's my friend. He goes up the road and alittle later down the road.. I'm in the kitchen at this time working on the one part of the panel. I hear the Blazer coming back up and then stopping at the bridge area and I heard two doors open and closing and then one door closing and then the blazer starts to come up the road. I sneak out to the porch where there is no light at but for the light coming from the house though. I stand off in the shadow and watch as the blazer goes up the road not fast and not slow. I know there is someone down the road yet or sneaking in the brush up. I start to walk off the porch when I hear gravel being kick and the weeds  along the road being brush. I know someone is sneaking up the side of the road  . I huncker down and sneak down to the small wood pile. There is a small bush down by the bankment  . As I stay hunker down a car comes down the road as I hear the car coming around the bend up the road I can hear someone very fast jumping onto the bankment where the weeds are at and can hear them crawling up under the bush as the car is coming down the road. I stay hunker down and out of sight behind the wood pile. The car goes down past and as the car gets out from where the bush is  I take two small pieces (around 4inches long of 2x4 pieces) and high through up in the air aim towards the bush    . My friend in the bush didn't get hit and didn't hear them either hitting the bush!  :shock:  . I hear my friend craw back down through the weeds and seen him get back onto the road. He's in a brown jacket, as I watch him sneak up around the bankment of the driveway. I act like I'm getting afew pieces of wood at this monute and I start to the house. I know he is watching me right now.. I walk up to the house so far and just as I turn my head slightly I can see him moving up the drive. He's not watching me at this second.. so I quietly put the wood in my hand down on the ground and make a dash for the charger  . Now here is the funny part. I have the rear end out of the charger as the unit still have it's wheels on. The unit is setting just off to the pass side over the old house basement area, I run down to the charger rear end fast enough to where he won't see me. Now I have a spare tire laying face down on the ground next to the wheel opening. My friend is sneaking up along side the other side of the wood pile    not aware where I'm at. I craw up under the back of the charger real quite and grab the spare tire and easy set it up to look as if the wheel is on the car. Now the rear end unit is setting next to the car! in plan sight at that!    . I get myself into a position over looking the rear wheel but can still see my friend and what he is planing on doing  . He has a Star wars red mask in his hand. I know what he is going to do, sneak up to my house window and try and scare me but he's not aware of one tiny thing    I'm not in the house. As I set there and watch him as he quietly sneaks around the wood pile and and hunkering down so I won't see him he thinks (he doesn't know I know that he's there).  He starts sneaking over to where the charger is, I'm in position under the rear portin of the car (he doesn't know I'm there) he looks right at the rear end unit and doesn't even down on him about the wheel at the back wheel well and the rear end is setting off next to the charger in the back. He sneaks up to the charger front pass side and hunkers down and looks at the house to see where I am. Then he makes his move back the side and I move quietly to the back of the wheel as I have afew pieces of small wood at the base on the ground holding the tire balance in place. Just as my friend comes up the rear pass quarter side (the area back behind the car there is clean and nothing is laying) just as he starts to gets to the tire area I'm under there waiting for the right monute as he goes past. Just as huckers down alittle  and starts to make his move from where he is at to the porch I reach out and grab his leg!        , talk about someone about crapping there pants!   . 

He jump and fell at the same time and looked to see what the hell grabed him from under the charger  . I came out laughing my a$$ off.. and ask him if that what he had in mind. I help him back up onto his feet and made sure he was okay. He ask me "when, or how, how did you get under the General when I was watching you and you went to the house" and said "I didn't go to the house, I  just wanted you to think that I did, but when you took your eyes off me (he only took his eyes off me for afew seconds) to move up the drive that was when I rerouted myself to the General so you wouldn't see me  ". He looked at me and started to laugh then I ask him, didn't he realise about the rear wheel and the rear end unit as there was something strange about that when he look at it before  . He said "You know I should have spotted that right off and I even look right at it to!". His girlfriend came down the road in the blazer and pulled in and she ask him if he scared me with his prank and he said "no it's the other way around, he got me"  . I looked over at him and said "next time look under the car to see if anyone is under there before you try to make your move  " . He told me that was a good one I did on him. Now each year I watch out for him and try to think like he would and what would he do.

One time, I was at a party with my friend Jim. There were about 6 or 7 of us, and we were sitting around a table playing quarters (a drinking game). Jim goes to the counter and gets out the bottle of Tequila that he bought. He says that he never tried Tequila before, so thats why he bought it. He pours himself a tall water glass full, and asks me if I want some. I decline, because I dont like Tequila, but ask him if he would get me a glass of water while he is by the sink. He brings his glass of Tequila and my glass of water to the table, puts the Tequila down by where he is sitting, and hands me the glass of water. Then he goes back to the counter, and begins to cut up a lemon, as he tells us that he heard that you are supposed to suck on a piece of lemon, then lick some salt, then drink some Tequila, because the lemon and salt are supposed to make the Tequila go down better. As he is talking and cutting up the lemon, his back is to us. I get an idea, and look at everyone around the table, then I reach over, and quietly switch Jims glass of Tequila and my glass of water, so he now has the water. Everyone sees me, but no ones says anything. The glasses are identical, and the Tequila was the colorless kind, so you could not tell the difference. I figure once he tastes the water, he will realize that I switched them, and will realize that I was playing a little trick on him.

Jim comes back to the table with his lemon and salt, and proceeds with his routine. First, he rubs some salt into the back of his hand, then he sucks the lemon, licks his hand to get some salt, and takes a drink of what he thinks is Tequila. "Wow, this lemon and salt really work!" he says. "I can hardly tast the Tequila at all. It makes it really smooth!"

Everyone is trying very hard not to laugh. I crack a joke so that everyone can laugh. It wasnt very funny, but people bust out laughing. Jim looks a little confused, but keeps on going. He does the same thing over and over again, until the glass of water is all gone. Then, he gets up, gets more lemon and salt, and pours himself another glass of Tequila.

Jim comes back to the table, and I say to him "Since the Lemon and salt work so well, maybe you should chug this glass". He says "Yes, thats a great idea". So he takes some lemon and salt, grabs the glass of now what is real Tequila, and begins chugging it. A couple of swallows later, his eyes get real big, and he stops drinking. His mouth is on fire from the real Tequila, so he looks around very quickly in a panic, sees my glass of "water", which is really his original glass of Tequila, grabs it, and begins to chug it as well. He gets several gulps down before he screams and spits everything everywhere and yells "What the f*** is going on?"

Everyone is now rolling on the ground laughing so hard that none of us can stop. Jim runs over to the sink and begins drinking water right out of the faucet. It could have not worked out better if I had planned the whole thing.

I don't beleave I have heard that one. Mind sharing it? 

I love the Hidden Fence System for my dogs. They can't dig under it or jump over it. Having 2 Dobies, a deaf Pit Bull, a white Sharpei, a Shitzu, and a Pug. This was wonderful to keep them in the acreage I had. They get to run free and stay contained. As you may know it gives an audible bell before it shocks the dog. They learn the parameter quickly and after training they don't mess up. HOWEVER...IF YOU HAVE BOYS...they take the dog collar, make it fit the sleeping one...then in the morning while the mom, is having the first cup of coffee they wake the kid up...make as they have to go to school and they are late! Hurry...got to go...poor kid is putting on his clothes, runs out the door to the car...and ZAP! Guess he didn't hear the bell...I felt guilty for days...but I couldn't stop laughing...neither could the boys. We still laugh.

[MoparManJim]

Okay heres another one, and it's funny at the same time   

6 years ago I was staying with a friend of mine Jim over in clarion, help him and his family out for a few days around there place. Well he had his friends up one evening on the weekend. Well we are the kind of guys that likes to pull pranks on each other if we can when we can. He is also the same one I talked about above also. Anyways this one evening up at his place.. there was his girl friend, his kids, his brother there and his son and girlfriend, our friend Mark and his girlfriend and Jim's other brother and one brother in-law drop by to visit also. Well, we all was in the den playing a video game and kicking back and drinking sodas. Well at one point Jim got up to go into the kitchen to get a soda and ask us all if we wanted any and I said yea I would take one and afew others also said the same. Jim and his brother in-law heads for the kitchen. Now one thing they didn't know is I know how long it takes to go to the kitchen and get something to drink. I can also hear very well to to the area they was in  . Well It took Jim just alittle bit longer then it should have.. I knew something was up.. well Jim came walking back in with the cans and handed me mine and it was open I ask him why it was open and he said he was being nice  was all (he did something earlier that day out side with football). I knew he was up to something, he walked over behind to his chair set down and started to drink his soda. I set there pretening to look at the screen while Mark was playing the game. I preten like I took a drink  but didn't though.. I notice his brother in-law looking at me and the can (his brother in-law is a down to earth guy) and I knew Jim did something to the soda. Well being pepise it does have a strong teast to it. Well I set there  holding the can and Jim and the others was talking and laughing alittle. I notice all the girls was looking at me  and I knew they knew that I knew something had to be wrong with that soda. Jim ask me if I was going to drink it  , I said yea. I preten to take a zip but didn't take anything though. I could see through the tv screen that he was talking to his brother that was behind Mark and afew of the guys was like talking an trying not to laugh. 

Well he didn't know that I love hot and spice stuff (at that time I did) well I figured it out what was wrong with the soda when I took a good sniff, it put taco hot sauce into the soda! You know the kinda that comes in the small slim glass jars or bottles which ever way you want to call them. I set the can of soda down on the tv stand in front of me for afew minutes.  Well I figure sense him and the guys are looking for me go take and drink the soda and get a hot hot hot mouth over and they can just laugh it all up and make fund of me. Well they was in for a big surprize  , I didn't know how much Jim put into the soda, but judging by the time he went to the kitchen and then came back to the room. I figure he had to at least put 1/4 to at least 2/4 in the soda. So I got myself prepaired for the 2/4 just in case. I reach over and got the can back off the tv stand. He ask me again  , hey Jim are you just going to hold that soda or drink it? I said "I'm going to drink it.. and drink it now.. would you like to help (you know being a smart a$$)?" and he said no thanks. I knew they was waiting for me to drink the hot sauce so they could laugh when I jump up with a very hot mouth. Well I took and started to drink it and I could teast the hot sauce  but for some odd reason the soda askly cooled it off I thinkl!   

I kapt on drinking it, took a breather for afew second and drank the rest.. now at this time he's looking at me with the strangest and puzzeled look  . The other guys was looking at each other and looking at me trying to figure it out also on what the heck happen  . I look up and ask Jim if I could have another can please. He look at me with a mix looked face  and said yea and ask me if I wanted him to get it and I said "Well if you want to, yea, that way it will save me the walk in to get it" he got up and went in, same thing happen this time as it took him about a minute longer then it should have. I knew what he was doing. He came back in and handed me the can open this time also and said he figure he would be nice again  . Well the same thing happen.. I drank that one and ask him for another one. He did the same thing, well now this time around I figure I would get even with him  , sense we are both drinking the same kind of soda and even one is looking at the kids in the back of the room I switch Jim's can of soda with mine  .  Well he turns back around and reaches over and gets his can.. Now no one knows that I switch the cans. 

Now I'm waiting, Mark gets back into playing the game (he' setting next to Jim and I'm setting next to Mark) well Jim takes and  chungs that soda down not knowing the cans have been switch! . ALL a sudden, all a sudden Jim jumps up and and makes a dash to the kitchen about running his girl friend over in the process! He comes back in the room drinking a big big cup of water  . I ask him if there was anything wrong.. and he said yea a hot mouth! and I look at him and said "I didn't know Pepis was hot" and he just look at me and started to laugh. The others ask him what happen and he said that he got my can by mistake. Then I told him I knew what he put in the soda and the guys ask me why I didn't get a hot mouth for if Jim got one, I said easy, at times me and Jim make dares and we I drink more of the hot sauce then he does and I said I got use to the stuff so it doesn't bother me that much  .. but on the other hand It does Jim though alot!  and we all laughed on it, because we all knew it was a good fun prank that had back fired onto him as he was trying to pull it on me and I pulled it on him instead when he wasn't looking for it.  . I figured I drank 2 cans and why not for the 3rd leave him drink it so I could have alittle fun part of the prank also. 

Now days when I hand him a open can he looks at me and ask me if I put anything in it, and like I tell him, I don't know, why don't you take a drink and find out if I did or didn't    , the strange thing isI also ask him the same thing when he hands me a open can and he tells me the same thing! 

[chargergirl]

My birth son used to make gas money drinking hot sauce...he loves it. So do I so that wouldn't work for me either. Love the hot sauce!

ah man, I would laugh to! 

That reminda me of what happen to me and my one friend afew years back. We was out helping a friend on the farm. We was putting in the fence wire around the house. Later in the day we had the stuff all done. Battery's in the collars.. my younger cousin was there also  and so was my other cousin/friend Jim. Well his brother was in the house helping the lady and husband in the basement moving things. Well I said to my friend that we had to test the collars out to see if they worked. Well we didn't know what to do.. well I went in the house to see what we could do. I for got I had the collars with me. One in my pants pocket close to my front side  , one in stuck in my belt loop on my back side (prongs touching my pants back side to) and I have one wrapped around my arm..

I go in the house, my friend out side gets the last part finish, comes in the house where the control box is and turns it on. Goes back out side looking for the collars, I'm down in the basement at this time for afew minutes helping the lady and her husband and my cousin out moving afew heavy heavy things around. They need a flat screw driver and afew tools and my cousin has tools up in him truck. So we both head up stairs to go out to get the tools. I'm not aware the fence issue is now live that my friend had turn it on afew minutes earlier and is looking for the collars which I have at the minute. My friend and Jim are out in the font yard talking the owners comes up with us from down in the basement to get something wet. My cousin and I start walking out to his truck..

I didn't even see it coming! The next I know I'm getting high voltage! my batter is getting charge real fast you can say and I didn't even know it was low and that it needed a recharge. I hit the ground and do the funny monkey dance you can say and getting it from all sides it seems. My friend and other cousin are up in the yard trying to figure out what the hell is going on with me right now!  and why the heck did I hit the ground like I did for. I get some how manage to get back inside the fense line and lay there shacking alittle and my hair looked like I just seen a ghost or something. My friend and cousin both come running over to see if I'm okay, the owners which are friends of ours also comes running over. My other cousin is trying to figure out what the heck just happen as all he knows I was walking along side him talking to him as we was walking to his truck when all a suddden I hit the ground. Anyways I pick myself up off the ground and look around to see where I'm at.. I look at my friend and the first thing I say "The collars works a o kay". Just when I said that they all bust out laughing knowing then what the hell just happen to me and why I hit the ground for so fast. I look at them and then said "I hate to be the poor son of a **** hing dog that gets zap by one". 

[chargergirl]

The dogs get some heads up...you and the kid never did. lol  The only other crazy thing that used to happen is if they didn't like my date the boys would wait up in the tress by the front door and drop like spiders. Thereby scaring the prospect off like a girl! Well with that many boys...I lie lots more crazy things happened...some I just can't say in type.

I'll admit to one. A long, long time ago, a high school buddy was over after school, and with my younger brother (by a year) we were just hanging out in the kitchen, telling lies and talking about girls. I happened to notice that there was a loooong thread was hanging off my buddies sweat pants, just below the crotch. I had the ingenious idea of taking a cigarette lighter (not mine  ) and, without him knowing, igniting the end of the thread. As I had not done very well in my chemistry classes I did not realize that the thread would not burn gradually, like giving someone a hot foot with a lighted match. Well, that damn thread was totally engulfed by a fireball in under a second. Spontaneous combustion came to mind.    My buddy screamed like a girl, nearly hit the ceiling, and then it was over. I was on the kitchen floor, holding my sides and laughing until I hurt. High School hijinks's were the best.

new clothes in the military used to be notorious for having LOTS of hanging threads and we would have to burn them off as soon as you got them, of course your first day in the military you don't know that those 10 threads 2 inches long will actually look like hiroshima if your not careful

Thank you for not posting this thread while I was raising my boys...it's probably happened they just didn't tell me. Many things they seem to have a waiting period for telling me.

I pulled a prank on a buddy of mine back in high school that still gets me to this day. I took one of those cheap "joy buzzer" handshake toys to school one day, and I went to meet my friends in the cafeteria for breakfast before class. As I rode the bus at the time, I was usually one of the last to arrive. I walked it to see everyone there, and made my way to the table. I already had the buzzer in my hand, but I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it. As I walked past my buddy Travis, I saw the back of his neck and had an epiphany. I started to say hi, then stopped as though interrupted and said, "Travis, don't move....there's a bee on the back of your shirt." He of course thought I was full of it, and said so. Rather than make him more suspicious I just said, "whatever, I'll flick it off." I moved my hand over his back and pressed the buzzer firmly against the back of his neck, cupping my hand over it while yelling "I got him...Don't move!" while the buzzer went off against his neck. It sounded like I had just kicked a wasp's nest, and Travis jumped up so fast he actually knocked me over.

I found out later from one of my other friends who was across the table from Travis that he had never seen someone's eyes bug out that far.

See...I knew it all along...boys are evil...lmao! The boys used to play "tag" in the backyard...couple acres. All things were fair...no weapons. So one went to drop out of a tree on another. It was like a cartoon, one dropped out of the tree the other sidestepped....tree in face...bad night for mom.

[MoparManJim]

Okay, got afew new ones. One happen afew years back. My friend Jim was into demo cars, an he had just gotten one in that he wanted to make into a demo car. I was down visting him for the day on the weekend, Mark my other friend was down there also. So was all the girlfriends. The car is up in the yard by the feild, half way striped. My one cousin which his Jim's uncle. He comes walking into the house where I am at for afew minutes getting something to drink. Jim's uncle walks over to the one cabinet an opens it an gets some firecrackers out. You know that kind that sounds like gun shots when going off. Well he grabs to big decks of them. Looks at us an starts laughing.. an I say "You know with that laugh of yours, why is it that I have feeling your going to pull a prank on the guys out side" an he looks at me an replies "Your right on that thought" an we all get up an walk easy out the door. As he walks down the ramp an up to the demo car. Where Jim is behind the steering wheel, his one brother is in the back seat area all backs are turn's to us (LOL). Jim's uncle walks up an with the trunk lid being open on the car, an he takes a good look around to see where everyone is at. He lights one string of crackers an throws it into the trunk area while trowing another into the back seat area just behind the driver seat! He steps afew feet away, as I am on the porch, and the ladys are standing by the door an afew out on the porch where I am at. All a sudden you should have seen 2 guys in one car jump.. as the firecrackers started going off. 
Jim dang hearing made the car into a sunroof car! an his one brother also put a crater in the roof also, an also took the rear door of the car off just to exit. Jim's uncle looked up laughing just like we all was doing an he asked the guys just for laugh of it  "anyone had to go to little boys room?". Jim, he was working on the wiring of the starter switch when he threw a spark off the connection just when the firecrackers started to go off, he thought he did it for a minute   

Then there was another time not long ago, I was out with a friend of mine visiting afew friends of ours. They was welding on one car (repair a floor boards), it was nice out. They was calling for rain later in the day though. I was setting back drinking a nice cup of coffee. Talking with the guys as they worked on the one car. One was cutting an grinding as one was welding. Well it started to sprinkle alittle, my one friend that is under the car has his foot (wearing sandles) next to a mud puddle. My one friend is inside the car welding, My other friend that is out back of the car under it moves his foot an lands it right in the mud puddle that has water in it. Just as he lands his foot in he grabs the car to move himself, just as grabs the car with his foot in the mud puddle my friend inside the car pulls the trigger on the welder. Man talk about a clump from behind a car. All we heard was "What in flying nations.." my friend looked over at me an I nodded to him "beats me" an he pulls the trigger on the welding gun again an yet again from behind the car "holy jumping jee astor frozet" again my friend in the car stops an looked around an looks over at me, an again I look at him stange also. By this time a small rain trail had drip down over the door and made a trail to my friend foot that was inside the car. He had just place his leg on the floor area an his shock was gotten wet without him knowing it. He went to hit the welding gun again an all I know was I heard two voices this time, my friend in the car "oouch leaping lizards" an under the car "What the heeeeck?!". Turns out the one (under car) had a wet foot an his foot still touching the puddle behind the car (he was trying to grind under the car, an had his side up touching the under side of the car. They both got zapped so frinking funny that I choked on my coffee I was drinking. I got up an started walking over to the car laughing, an getting there I said "I wasn't aware that you two was into electric shock therapy with each other. I no longer said that I touch the car an did I light up like a tree (all 3 of us did)!  . The grass was alittle high an wet that I was standing in next to the car . The ladys all cracked up an the one said to me "we didn't know you was into it either!"  . After that, the guys always made sure the car's was some where, where it didn't get wet or any mud puddles around or tall grass
