We might not like it when our friends prank us, but damn it we respect the hell out of them when they do. How can you not admire someone who's willing to give up some time to playfully torture you? Your friends ought to appreciate the effort too, and if they don't, turn on the "Golden Girls" and tell them to man up (apologies, Betty White).
Now, we don't advocate feeding kids chalk or being a jerk to an employee at a drive-thru window (that's bush league), but there are some awesome ways to spoil your buddy's appetite for sh*ts and giggles or for revenge.
Toothpaste Oreos
Speaking from experience, this one is fun for both the prankster and victim. It's pretty easy too, and perfect for a brother or housemate who has a habit of devouring your food. First, get some Oreos and carefully break them open. Then, remove the icing with a knife and replace it with minty white toothpaste, and put the cookies back together. It's not necessary to perform surgery on the whole box -- just a few at the end of the sleeve. Then, you wait for Tyrannosaurus-fat-body to grab the Oreos. When the real-life inspiration for Cookie Monster looks puzzled and disappointed, you can tell him what he's snacking on if he hasn't already figured it out.
Laxative brownies
This one is classic and takes a fair amount of preparation. Step 1: Make brownies. Step 1.5: Put laxatives in the brownies, and stir. Step 2: Leave the delicious sh*t-inducing snack out for your buddy, who will scarf down the chocolate fun and, not too long after, begin pooping his brains out. Now if you forget what you did and eat one yourself, well, you deserve it.
Pie in the face
AJ Burnett had a terrible ERA this past season (5.26), especially for a guy collecting $80 million over 5 years, but he remained dominant when it came smashing teammates in the face with shaving cream pies. And that's something to be proud of...but not $80 million proud.
Mail some lunch meat
People love getting mail. That is, until, people become adults and the mail is but a collection of bills, solicitations and PennySavers. So personal mail still stands out, and a way to really play on someone's emotions is to mail them a piece of salami or bologna or whatever the heck is on sale. First he sees the letter and gets excited. Then he opens it to find a slimy, stinky of meat. Success!
Rainbow pee
It might take a couple days to get the reward on this one, but it's worth the wait. All you have to do is drop some food coloring into the victim's drink, ideally a dark drink like coffee or soda where it won't be visible. Then just wait for the food coloring to make its way through the person's plumbing. You know what they teach teenagers in health class about blue or green colored pee? Nothing. Absolutely nothing, which is why it will be terrifying when the dude wakes up one day and start pissing like a Smurf.
