I'm still friends with them so it can't have been TOO bad.
I say tape about 5 stinkbombs together and put em in overnight bag close to something heavy (like a binder) that will trigger them when he picks it up or sets it down hard enough!!!! I can imagine this happening on the airport shuttle or going through security!! LOL

A couple drops of Visine in his drink will keep him occupied for a lil' while..

You could just wait until you fly with him again and wait until he is in the flair and ask "DID YOU PUT THE GEAR DOWN???"

Visine has reformulated their product because of said "non sanctioned" uses. So much for the good old days.

Hey Doug, here's an idea that can keep you safe and out of trouble:

Next time you see him, or fly with him......
Walk around smiling extra big,or act like you are hiding something or know "a little something extra"....like you have done something to him.......

Maybe make a side comment......"ohh your gonna get it or you'll be surprised at XYZ time.....etc etc etc"

but dont actually do anything to him!

This could drive him nuts (if he's that kind of person that you could fool into thinking you have done something) . ....... and he'll be wondering....looking...or checking all the time for something you "might have" done.

In reality.....you have done nothing to get yourself in touble......all you have said is something to him......and let the mind game/worrying begin!

The Visine thing is an urban legend. It does not cause diarrhea, but it is poisonous. It is dangerous and illegal to put it into someone's drink. Read the whole Snopes article:

http://www.snopes.com/medical/myths/visine.asp

edit to add: Visine prank leads to day in court

Well Doug,
Looking at your intended target (Hoodrat), I am guessing he is an ex-military driver.

If this is the case, and you are asking for advice on round one, you should just let it go now. God knows what round 12 would be like.

Nah, the first guy you see, the future victim is a former BizEx pilot. El Capitan on the left is Navy.

BizEx was a cool airline. Flew Saabs hourly BGR-BOS for quite some time. Had some BAE-146s (precursor to the AVRO) and 1900s too.

The only 4 engine jet that I have flown on was a BizEx 146 BGR-BOS as an unaccompanied minor.

Minor necropost, but if you haven't done anything:

1) Get a bottle of water and a can of apple juice

2) warm apple juice on glare shield

3) Drink water

4) pour juice into water bottle

5) toss bottle at victim and ask for him to throw it away.

Thats funny.

I like the used car on craigslist idea or perhaps if you can get to his flight case remove the leather binders from his jep charts. Just leave them in his case nice and organized without binders. That would really suck though and may even get a flight canceled. Or a good old fashioned fart machine is always a good laugh.

Some of my favorites, from barely-know-the-guy a the top to prank-war pal

1) Just lock the inertial reels. Fun to watch for about 3 minutes

2) If DAL still has the 8oz water bottles...Properly hydrate yourself with the water. Just prior to him coming up front, lift the seat cushion, place empty, yet not squished bottle in the middle of seat pan. Neatly replace seat cushion. Watch hilarity ensue.

3) If your buddy's asleep, just hit the GPWS test or get the ALT Alert. Kinda need a video of the reaction.

4) Note, only if this is a REAL good friend. Pack a mozzeralla cheese stick in the flight kit. Ensure said dairy product reaches room temperature. Go to the bunk in your skeevies, and slap him in the forehead with the cheese stick. When he wakes up, wink

If you get access to his computer, pry off the M and N keys and switch em (or any other keys for that matter). That's always fun. Although you don't get to see the reaction.

There was a show a year or 2 back called "Homewrecker" starting Ryun Dunn (from Jackass) and it's all about pranks to pull on buddies, of course they tend to be on the brutal side. You might be able to rent a DVD of the show. One I always thought was funny as hell was if the guy had a deodorant that uses that white colored stick, cut it out and replace with cream cheese.

This one is better for office people: replace the coffee with decaf for a week, most people will just drink another cup if the first doesnt do the trick, after a week goes by, replace with regular coffee and watch everyone act like monkies on crack.

I have been at an office that did this, but when they went back they actually ground 100% Kona in a almost espresso grind. Talk about boucing off the walls!

Home Ransacked After Craigslist Hoax


March 24, 2008,
AOL
Posted: 2008-03-25 12:55:24
Filed Under: Nation News, Weird News
Dozens of people descended on Robert Salisbury's Oregon home after ads posted on Craigslist Saturday said his belongings -- including his horse -- were free for the taking. But the ads were a hoax. When Salisbury returned home, some people refused to stop taking his things. The Jackson County Sheriff's office is inviting people to return the goods no questions asked. Those who don't, it says, will be "part of the theft case."

That's not funny. How would you feel if people suddenly showed up at YOUR house taking all your stuff?!

Pranks that involve physical hurting of someone or damage to their stuff is just wrong. A little good-natured ribbing is one thing, but hurting someone or ruining their stuff is another.

Agreed now that I have grown up but, try telling that to a bunch of college students. In college we rigged up this thin plastic pipe to a roommates door that was taking a nap, we called him and told him that this chick he liked had come over early to see him and when he opened his door the tension released and came back and slapped him in the dangly bits. . To get back at me he filled a 2 liter bottle full of dry ice, added water, wrapped it in a towel, threw it into my room and closed the door while I was sleeping. HAHA good times... Another good one is to turn off the hot water as soon as someone gets in the shower.

The upper decker is always a funny one that was talked about. How bout the good ol' hide a deuce. Go in a shoe box and put it under someones bed or in their closet. Usually they end up finding it with someone else around and its kinda an awkward moment. "Whats that awful smell? I dunno do you smell that to? Whats in this shoe box?..." Use your imagination...

Early in the morning while victim is sleeping get a bucket of water, a little bit of dry ice, put it in someones room and test all the smoke alarms in the house.

I would never do this to anyone or wish it upon anyone
but if you swapped out someones shampoo with nair they may be in for a little suprise when they rinse and or repeat. My buddy was going to shave his head and I thought that it would be funny to do that earlier in the day but couldn't get the logistics in place before he cut it. I don't even think it would work but who knows...

Actually, I've gotten revenge, the best type!

I saw him in the pilot lounge a few days ago when I was talking to Mad Doggy Dogg and he's been living in absolute pay-back paranoia for months!
