I like getting on non-tech savvy people's computers and screen capping their desktop and then setting it as their wallpaper and then hiding the toolbar and icons. Watching them get frustrated trying to click fake icons is hilarious.

A guy I know took his sister's camera at a family get together and had his wife take an extreme close up of his lower aft orfice, so when she had her pics developed she would have a nice surprise.

If you really don't care about your job, make goatse their wallpaper.

when I worked at wal-mart a few of the electronics guys would call the old lady in the clothes department who had to answer the phones and ask for weird items in certain departments.

One night they got the real old lady, she was like in her late 70s and was getting senile. They asked her for the two headed dildo department and so she announced over the intercom "Could the department with two headed dildo's please pick up on line one. two headed dildos line one"

that was easily the most hilarious moment of my 4 years at wal-mart.

I've never seen this one successfully executed but I love the idea.

Step 1. Get ahold of their car keys

Step 2. Take some broken glass. Spill it on their car seat.

Step 3. Roll down the window all the way.

Step 4. Walk away.

This is more of a scare than anything, but worked out five times as well as I even wanted.

We were driving to visit a friend through some rough summer weather. We were basically running from a bad thunderstorm in the afternoon, with heavy lightning and funnel clouds that weren't touching down.

We got to my friends house and had gained a few minutes on the storm. He went to take a shower. He has a life size Joe Montana standee, and I thought it would be funny to put just outside his bathroom door...lame, I know. Anyway, as he was in the shower the storm arrived, and a huge clap of thunder that echoed off of his brick apartment wall that sounded like it was just outside the door and was extremely loud. He comes running out, hollers 'What the hell?' then realizes that Joe Montana is standing there. Man, that scared him half to death.

We once cleaned everything but the computer, the desk and a chair out of a co worker's office while she was on vacation. Pictures, nick nacks, everything not owned by the company. (and a LOT of stuff too) She freaked. Worried for a moment that she'd been terminated.

Her revenge was to immediately pull all the file drawers out of the other five (identical and interchangeable) desks that department and put them in random other desks. They had lots of fun finding client files for the rest of the day.

I've brought this one up before but it is about the funniest thing in the world.

If your office has three-way calling there are countless ways to have fun with it.

Call your friends and their ex-girlfriends simultaneously. Each thinks the other called them and you get to listen to the confusion.

Call your friends and their enemies.. Equally funny.

Call Dominoes and Pizza Hut at the same time.

Call your friend and Dominoes at the same time. One friend still get's quoted when he yelled at the poor Dominoes guy "What, are you fu**ing people calling people know to sell your sh*tty pizza"

Call 800 porn lines and you buddy. This can also be accomplished by just calling the 800 porn lines and transferring the call.
