Clear packing glad-wrap stuff, and a fuckload of packing corn.

Like that "priceless" picture floating around the net.

*Pour scalding hot coffee onto the head of that annoying guy who's always slurping up his coffee 23 times a day.

*Break the elevator.

*Tell everyone you're going home sick, when you're not sick.

*Print a massive 1000 page document of garbled bullshit to the printer on an hourly basis.

*Trip over the bosses power cable when he's concentrating on important documents.

When some one is off for lunch, raise their chair right up, and smear something gooey on the height adjustor lever.

Wrap sellotape around both ends of the phone cord ( the bit that connects the hand peice to the base) So when they pick it up, the whole phone comes along.

There's usually some good stuff in alt.revenge

seen-my-keys? · 3rd March 2004, 17:03

cover their monitor with masking tape, draw a fake OS on top of it that looks like their desk top.

Unplug their mouse and key board.

PelemaN · 3rd March 2004, 17:17

Take a screenshot of their desktop.

Hide their windows task bar.

Set the background to the screenshot taken prior.

super-glue their phone handset to the receiver, so that when they go to answer the phone quickly, they smash themselves in the face with their phone ^_^

[TS]Sephiroth · 3rd March 2004, 17:48

Put a thin bit of clear tape over the connections on the phone jacks/networkcables, etc.

"IT'S PLUGGED IN BUT IT WON'T FUCKING GO!"

Rangoon Attack · 3rd March 2004, 18:07

simple yet effective, change all the mice around the office to left-handed setup, vice versa for the people who use their mouse like that already

I'm still waiting for the punchline.
I don't get it, that wasn't funny at all.

Mr M · 3rd March 2004, 19:26

Here's some goodies I've done myself :P
With a corded phone, make sure the connection to the handset peice is only in SLIGHTLY, so that it looks like it's plugged in, but when someone calls, and the user picks it up, the cord falls out and hangs up on the person.
Hilarity ensures.

Also, more handset hilarity.
Make sure the windy cord to the phone is SO tangled up, that when someone calls, and when they pick UP the handset, the rest of the base unit is picked up to and left dangling. ORRR even better, if the baseunit is stuck to the desk, the person picks up the handset, realises they can't lift it to far up, and the person is still on the other end, so bend down and stick it to their ear with their chin on the desk looking like a complete fool.

Back when I had an office job an IT dude did that to a new sales rep (it wasn't April Fools either). Except when he took the screen shot, he'd created a folder that said something like "Kev's Porn".
Kev the Salesman arrives, IT guy keeps an eye on him. He looks at the screen, tries to drag the folder into the recycling bin, can't clicks furiously on it, can't do anything with it. Goes to IT guy "uhh... look I need your help, someone has put porn on my computer and I can't get rid of it! You gotta do something before the boss sees!" IT guy looks "hmmm, can't be fixed"

classic but simple....if your office is using non-optical mice (ie with a ball) get in early and take out all the balls in the mice then hide them....

It's true that I do enjoy a good bum flagellation, especially after watching Passion of the Christ and seeing that bum flagellated.

It's funny because of the tragedy that is conservative religion. Of course, many would disagree.

I never thought I'd see Jack Chick outdo his Dungeons & Dragons strip, but this one had me quickly accelerating to 600 lols/h.

If the pc's are close together, plug all the screens into the pc's next to them

Osmius · 3rd March 2004, 22:38

Simple Steps To Ultimate Ownage On April Fools Day.

Lift toilet seat up.
Place a tight sheet of clear glad wrap covering the whole seat.
Sellotape down, make sure is secure and not seen if the seat is lifted up.
Place toilet seat back down.
Repeat to all remaining seats in your level.

And for a bit of a laugh get in ealry and try do it to as many fricking toilet seats you can get your hands on.

Make a threatening bomb-type call to the American Embassy from your boss' phone. Hilarity WILL ensue.

Bleh. I wish my office was fun. Anyone's idea of a joke here would probably be ...

"The Probate Office rejected the Will because of tampering"
"......"
"JUST KIDDING!"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
