office pranks

Usually, the office is pretty quiet, with an occasional joke every 30 minutes or so, but eventually we degrade back to children.  We think of something so hilarious that we can't help ourselves but follow through with a prank or two.

These pranks usually follow one of two cycles:

Cycle A

Cycle B

Going with Cycle A. At the office, boredom struck i realized that I needed to shave.  That day we were making comments about a co-worker's daughter's basketball team, and how it would be funny to go watch them practice and act like it was ok.  So I decided to come in the next day with a lone mustache, and act like a 70's pornstar/perv for the lulz.  It wasn't really a prank, just boredom.

I had my picture taken and lulz were had.  I didn't realize that a prank was already under way.




I came in the next day to see a wanted poster on the front door of the office.




So now I had to retaliate.  I found one of the creepiest clients and mspaint'd a photo of them with their arm around the co-worker who made the wanted poster.  I then made a creepy note to go with it.  After the resulting ownage, the cycle slowly started again.

Now, Cycle B works differently.  Something happens to make you frustrated with a co-worker or friend, and you prank them, which makes you feel better.  Usually there is no retaliation because of the previous tension.

During the week before Halloween, one of my co-workers kept accidentally knocking whatever drink I had out of my hands.  At its worst it was three drinks knocked down in four days.

On Halloween, I knew what to do.  I bought an angry birds costume and came into work with it on.  I went into the drink destroyer's office and started knocking everything onto the ground while she was there.  It was a day full of win.
