There's nothing more fun than playing pranks on your friends, siblings, or housemates. Fun with your friends by covering their car with sticky notes or playing with hand sanitizer. In addition, you can also create nightmares in the form of food with Oreos and toothpaste, then offer them to your victims. If you want to prank your siblings or housemates, stick insect-shaped paper clippings to the inside of a lampshade or salt the toothbrush.
Step
Method 1 of 4: Creating Your Own Fun Ideas
Step 1. Choose the person you want to make fun of
Choose someone close to you who has the same sense of humor as you, such as a parent, teacher, sibling, or best friend. Avoid making fun of people you don't know very well, as they may misunderstand and think that you are being mean to them. Here are the ones to avoid:
- Strangers
- Father or mother who is stressed or his mind is disturbed
- New student at school
- People you usually don't get along with
- People who are sensitive or irritable
- People who have PTSD, anxiety disorders, or other conditions that can make it difficult for them to calm down
Step 2. Brainstorm ideas
Prepare a pen and a piece of paper. Choose a comfortable and distraction-free place to sit and think. Then write down any ideas that come to your mind. Don't care if the idea is good or bad. Instead, focus on writing down as many ideas that come to mind as possible.
- Try a prank that matches her personality. For example, if your best friend loves glitter and doesn't get shocked easily, then sending her a glitter bomb might make her laugh. If your dad likes experimenting with recipes, you can buy vegetables that can be preserved without refrigerating and place them in unusual places around the house. (Your dad can cook the vegetables once he's entertained by your pranks.)
- Avoid pranks that don't match his personality or habits. For example, if your mother is always in a rush in the morning, then don't make her look around for her cup of coffee. If your brother is easily startled, don't send him a surprise video as it will frighten him very much.
Step 3. Ignore cruel or dangerous ideas
Your pranks should not hurt feelings or harm anyone. If the opposite happens, it means it can't be called a "fad." Some examples of dangerous or painful situations include:
- Destroying something very valuable to someone
- Makes a person think that someone or something very important to him is in danger
- Involving sharp objects or fire in your prank
- Making someone angry for surprising him
- Puts a person at risk of suffocation or hyperventilation from being trapped
- Puts a person at risk of injury (for example, placing a bucket of water over a door causing the bucket to fall on his head and causing him to be taken to the ER)
- Leaving a big mess to clean up
Step 4. Choose your best idea
The best pranks have to be funny, harmless, and easy to do. Also, the joke should be big enough to be shocking, but not so overwhelming as to arouse suspicion. Choose from the following ideas:
- Make fun of someone in his comfort zone so he doesn't suspect anything at all
- Don't do pranks that require lots of tricks
- Must be funny to you and your prankster
- Something that won't leave a big mess
Step 5. Plan the implementation
After creating the perfect fad idea, make a plan. Carefully outline the plan on a piece of paper. Reread the plan several times while imagining its execution. This will help you spot fatal mistakes in planning. As an example:
- If planning involves a lot of balloons, make sure you have time to buy them.
- If your friend isn't feeling well, he or she may miss work or school and miss your fun.
- If your prank involves water and it's cold outside, the water might freeze.
Method 2 of 4: Playing Tricks On Friends
Step 1. Place a sign that says “voice activation” on the electronic equipment
This prank is suitable to be practiced for colleagues. Bring a toaster or other common electronic equipment to work and place it in the break room. Then, make a small sign indicating that this toaster uses voice activation. Spend the whole day laughing at people screaming into the toaster.
- If you want to encourage your friend to use the toaster, place the bun next to him and offer it to him.
- Other small appliances include a drip coffee maker, electric stove, and Dolce Gusto.
Step 2. Cover the surface of your friend's car with sticky notes
Go to an office supply store and buy as many sticky notes as you can carry. Then, stick it to your friend's car until all surfaces are covered, including the car window. Your friend has to let go of hundreds of sticky notes before they can use their car.
- Use colored sticky notes to create various patterns and designs. For example, use green, white, and brown sticky notes to create a Shrek car.
- Sticky notes are easier to stick to a freshly cleaned car surface.
- Take responsibility for the mess you make. After seeing your friend's reaction, offer to clean his car.
Step 3. Exchange the contents of the hand sanitizer with lubricant
This fun is perfect for your friend who always has a bottle of hand sanitizer in his bag or on his desk. First, buy a bottle of clear personal lubricant at the pharmacy or supermarket. Then, empty your friend's hand sanitizer and fill it with personal lubricant. When your friend tries to use hand sanitizer, his hands will get greasy and slippery.
Keep hand sanitizer in a cup or buy a new hand sanitizer before doing this prank. He might be angry if he had to buy another hand sanitizer
Step 4. Send something cute in the mail
There are many companies that provide fad delivery services. You can send a box of glitter, eggplant, bugs and more. Do an online search to find a service that suits your needs.
If possible, send the package to work or school so you can see your friend open it
Step 5. Post a Chewbacca-style wailing contest ad
Make a flyer advertising a Chewbacca-style wailing contest and put your friend's phone number underneath. Next, distribute the flyers around your neighborhood. If you're lucky, your friends will receive tons of voicemails of people imitating Chewbacca's voice.
Avoid doing this fad using someone's office phone number. Doing so will cause the voicemail box to be full and thus miss important messages
Method 3 of 4: Using Food to Prank Someone
Step 1. Make a “candy apple
“First, make some candy apple layers. Next, remove the first layer of medium-sized onion skin. Insert a wooden skewer into each onion for grip. Dip the onions one by one into the candy coating and place them on the wax paper to dry. These onions will perfectly resemble a delicious red candy apple.
- When the candy has cooled down, offer this “candy apple” to your friend casually and see how she reacts when she bites into the onion.
- Make sure you don't offer this fad food to people who are allergic to onions.
Step 2. Make a disgusting cheese “orange juice”
Buy a box of macaroni and dry cheese and a small bottle of orange juice. Drink or pour orange juice elsewhere. After that, pour the cheese powder from the macaroni and cheese box into the empty juice bottle. Add water and close again as before. Shake the bottle so that no more lumps of cheese remain.
- When the bottle is ready, offer it to your friend and watch him spit it out as he drinks it.
- Cool the bottle before using it. A bottle of warm orange juice might make your friend suspicious.
Step 3. Make Oreos filled with toothpaste
Buy a pack of Oreos and a tube of toothpaste. Next, carefully separate the Oreo biscuits from the icing. Replace the icing with enough toothpaste, then put the biscuits back together. When your friend takes a bite of this biscuit, she'll get a nasty minty surprise.
- Put these toothpaste biscuits on a plate. Then, offer it to your friend and watch him spit it out while eating it.
- If you have a suspicious friend, just put a plate of Oreo toothpaste on them to tease them. You probably won't see him eat it in person, but you'll hear the story later.
Method 4 of 4: Home Fun
Step 1. Sprinkle salt over the toothbrush
Sprinkle salt over the bristles of your sibling's or housemate's toothbrush. When he later brushes his teeth, the toothpaste will taste salty and disgusting.
Use small grains of salt or table salt. Otherwise, he will see the salt grains on the toothbrush and be suspicious
Step 2. Put “insects” on the lampshade
This prank would be really fun to do with people who don't like big bugs. First, print an image of a large cockroach or other disgusting insect. Then, cut it out and stick it on the inside of the lampshade. When your housemate or sibling turns on the light, he or she will see a horrifying image of a large insect and believe that there are real bugs in the lampshade.
- Search the internet for pictures of disgusting insects for print.
- Use clear tape to attach the insect clippings to the lampshade.
- Don't do this prank if you live with someone who has a severe phobia of insects. You have to make sure that anyone who sees it is an easy person to calm down. If not, then you didn't succeed.
Step 3. Make useless soap
Prepare a bottle of clear nail polish and a dry bar of soap. Apply several coats of clear nail polish to the soap, waiting for it to dry before applying new polish. Next, place the soap in the shower or near the sink. When your siblings and housemates try to use it, the soap won't lather at all.
Apply at least four coats of clear nail polish. The more coats of nail polish, the higher the success rate
Step 4. Wrap the bed with plastic food wrap
Buy some plastic food wrap boxes at the nearest store. Next, wrap your sibling or roommate's bed in a tight layer of plastic wrap by wrapping a plastic roll across the bed frame. When it was bedtime, he would spend a few minutes trying to unwrap the plastic wrap first.
- Try to use long strips instead of a large number of small pieces as this will make the plastic wrap harder to open.
- You can wrap the pillows and blankets separately or put them all in one package.
Tips
- Be careful because your friend might get revenge.
- You can put a coin under a water faucet (not all sides!) and water will splatter everywhere when your victim turns it on.
- Make sure your prank doesn't hit the wrong person. You have to make sure your prank victim is the right person.
- Choose your victims carefully. If your friend doesn't have a great sense of humor, it's best to make fun of someone else.
- Remember, a good prank is one that makes you BOTH laugh. Evil pranks may be taken seriously by others and may hurt people's feelings.
Warning
- Choose the right time to make fun of your friends. If he's stressed or sad, he probably won't like your pranks.
- Pranking someone you don't know (such as posting a screaming or shocking video online) is a bad idea because you don't know if he or she will accept it well or if someone is very sensitive. If you're doing internet pranks, try to keep it light, or send it in a private message to a friend you know will react well.
