Permalink The Encyclopedia of Immaturity Giveaway
Klutz sent her the second volume in their Encyclopedia of Immaturity series, to see what she thought of it. She enjoyed reading and snickering at many of the articles, and she is planning on sharing it with her best friend the next time she comes over to hang out. I'm pretty sure they'll find many activities to keep themselves amused within the covers of this book.
She already has a couple of the entries down pat like the
Check out this neat How To Slip On A Banana Tutorial.

One time at work, a co-worker hung a colostomy bag filled with green tea onto my chair. Every time I moved, the bag would swing with the chair. I was unaware of this until the end of my shift. Quite embarrassing.

Not much is coming to mind now...we were camping about 2 weeks ago and someone put an empty pop can in the fire. My husband kept wanting to reach in with his bare hands and pull it out...the thing was glowing it was so hot, it was getting holes burnt through it etc. My husband swore if he licked his fingers and grabbed the tab he would not get burnt. I told him that was idiotic and if he did he then he would not be allowed to seek medical attention of any sort when he got burnt. When my husband left the fire for a while we pulled the can out with a stick and we came up with this plan to tell my husband that another camper in our group pulled it out with his hands. And we all acted in awe whereas we were all telling my husband he was dumb for thinking it. Dh was mad because he wanted to pull it out and get the admiration. Finally we admitted it was pulled out with a stick.
my son would go bonkers for the draw star wars book

I only remember the practical jokes when we were young. Things like if your refrigerator is running, go catch it. Not much else comes to mind now.

I didn't find it that funny, but as a teenager I went to my friend's house and her mother offered me a plate of choclates. I took one and bit in - it was rubber!
I live in a pretty rural area where no one locks their doors and running into the store while leaving the vehicle running (especially in the winter) is pretty common. We decided to move a friend's car around the corner and turn it off. We then went inside and acted surprised to see him, after all we hadn't seen his car. He looked puzzled when we said no, no it wasn't out there. The look on his face when he came back in was great. It's just too bad we couldn't keep straight faces and draw it out longer!
The Most Amazing Thumb Doodles Book. I remember Mom making simple thumb people, and these look like so much fun! THUMB MONKEYS! HA HA! HA HA! HA HA! ok i'm done now.
I once put a tiny rubber spider in my granddad's french fries thinking that it would scare him. I kept waiting for him to say something about the spider. He finished his fries without saying a word about it. I then asked him if he found the spider and he got mad because he had eaten the spider without knowing it.

I finished my husband's joke at a pizza parlor with friends when he went to pick up our order and when he got to the punch line and no one laughed, he was dumbfounded.
I mixed salt and baking soda together and put on my dad's brush as if it was toothpaste! I loved the look on his face!

I don't know if this was a practical joke, a payback, or insanity, but my Mom came to an adult costume party that I was attending, dressed as "a guy ghost " who came over to flirt with me, and I had no idea who it was...and chatted away...
I'd sure love to win these books for some fun ideas!!

I've never played a practical joke on anyone.
We filled the cab of a friends junker truck with shaving cream

It was funny but horrible, and I'd never do it again. My husband gave our teen a scratch off lotto that was fake and said he won $10k.
