This can only be done with someone who has just had his final hair replacement session.
Take him (her) out for a celebration. Get them so drunk that they pass out. Once they're in dreamland shave their head into a Mohawk and die it lime green.

Last Sunday night, I had a small part in one of the funniest incidents I've ever witnessed.

We had our company Christmas Party at a small function center. One of the blokes on my roster said about 3 weeks ago he doubt he'd go as he hates going to those kinds of things alone, and since he's single right now and wives, GF's were also asked to come along. He's in his early 30's and always has a new GF for 2 months before he manages too get sick of them

He then said for a joke he should hire a real knockout escort too pretend she's his steady GF.... Then it started, I said for a joke, get a male escort and pretend he's bi sexual

....... He did

He came late, and when he did he walked in holding hands with a bloke

Now, this bloke is a real comedian, I knew what was going on, but nobody else did, the reactions were varied from horrified too slightly amused with the expected Faggot comments. I somehow managed too get word around silently too my shop floor workmates that it was all a joke, but the handful of management that were there had no idea it was a joke and still don't. It continued all the way too Tuesday when we came too work and had a quick refresher on company policy and labor laws regarding harassment

I once for a joke put my older brother's mates car up for sale. I was about 14 and he had a fairly decent car worth at the time about $2000. I thought I'd have a fire sale so I went out the front of my parents place with all these signs $500 ono.. My second oldest brother was out the front with his friend working on his car and he said "what are you doing"? I said "I'm selling Pete's car". They both said "You can't do that". I said "What's stopping me"?. They were laughing but said if anyone answered it they would tell them it was a joke. I agreed. But a few hour's later there was a knock on the door and I was about to answer it (by this time I completely forgotten about what I'd done) and my Dad got there before me. I looked at the guy at the door and I thought I don't recognise this guy and then it dawned on me... I'm fucked.. I ran out the back yard because the front door was blocked... I could hear laughing coming from the shed out the back of my parents place and it was my middle older brother and his friend pissing themselves laughing.. They said they couldn't help it they told the guy to ask for a guy named Pete inside the house. They told me I was going to be in heaps of trouble as Pete would get angry and I should leave. Apparently what happened the guy got to talking with Pete about the car saying "how many miles has she done"?, "Is it a 4 speed manual"?, Is it a 1.3 or 1.6"?, "I'm looking for a small runabout for my wife" and after so many questions being asked and Pete answering, Pete being very puzzled said "look mate why are you asking me so many questions about my car"? The guy then puzzled said "Well you're selling it aren't you"? Pete's reply "NO". The guy then said "Well why do you have all these signs stuck all over your car"? It was then you could here my Dad laughing his guts up. Immediately Pete knew who was responsible shouting "Where's the little fucker, I'm going to kill him". He eventually caught up with me but admitted it was so funny he couldn't hit me it was too good a joke.. 20 years later every so often it's still brought up..

My best mate I had when I was a kid about 13 his parents just bought a VCR. One of the first people I knew who had one. After school one day he invited me to his place to watch a video, something his parent's had rented. His parent's never got home till a bout 6 ish so we used to be alone for a few hours.. We arrived at his place to find the lounge room turned over and the VCR gone. WE PANICKED. He thought what do we do we've been robbed. We were scared to go any further in the house in case the burglar was still there. But the phone was in the kitchen and we had to go and at least make an attempt to ring for help.. It was then two guys jumped out from the laundry screaming get down on the floor. It happened so quick we at first didn't realise at first it was his brother and his mate. They had set the whole thing up... The VCR was in his bedroom... They laughed so hard at us listening to us panicking and chose to jump out in case we called the police...

My bro"s and my mate were always playing practical jokes like ordering taxi's and pizza's to each other's house.. This was the mid 80's you can't get away with that now. But the joke I came up with and it took a while to convince my mate to do it because he said "that won't work". I thought it may take a couple of tries but it worked straight away I couldn't believe it. My joke was first think of a telephone number (pre redial days) and write it down. Then ring the number and ask for Mum. My mate does this and straight away this young kid on the other end of the line say's "ok". This woman answer's and my mate just get's stuck into her. "I hate you Mum, you're a bitch". She goes "Is that you John"? my mate say's "Yes it's me John". He kept going off on this woman then hung up. I said wait 5 minutes ring back. The kid answered again and said "John I don't think you should come home for a while Mum's very angry".. My mate said "I don't care just get the bitch". And again he got stuck into her until she said something like throwing his stuff out on the street. He just said "Do it"... Another 15 minutes my mate ring's back but this time it's not the kid it's not the Mum it's the actual guy John and he was flipping out... "Who the FUCK are YOU I'm going to smash your face in"... My mate and I were rolling around the floor in tears laughing...

Hey I just found this thread thanks to sweatyhat.

So if you want to trick some one here is a way. Take a dry bar of soap and coat it with clear nail polish. Let it dry and just put it back. It won't lather.

**palo5** · March 12th, 2017, 05:21 PM

I never did this, of course. But some years ago in Finland, the monopoly Alko stores had serious rules about selling booze, and used to lecture people about consuming too much. There are still rules about not selling to drunk people

The joke/scam worked like this: you went in an Alko store, collected some bottles of vodka, paid for them and left. Then your colleague in the doorway would scream in a drunk voice "Ahhhh vodka!!" The Alko guy, with his state authority, would yell "Give the bottles back!!". And they did, except they were different bottles filled with water, and the guys got the vodka for free!

This story is legendary in the North

Many years ago three American National Guard officers (Bn XO, Bn Doctor, and a Captain) came to visit a certain TA Inf Bn at their Annual Camp. They were welcomed in to the officers mess and they seemed to be enjoying themselves. In the course of one dinner they asked if the Bn had any strange traditions. None was the reply except perhaps, 'Well we are the last Regiment in the Army to be allowed to duel.' It was explained to the Americans that due to the Regiment being away and out of touch stealing some chaps country when Duelling was forbidden we (errr I mean they) never got the order banning it. If the Royal Welch Fusileers could keep the flash we could keep on duelling.

The Americans thought this awfully quaint and another bottle of port was ordered.

Skip forward to the end of Camp and the formal dinner. The best (only) silver was laid out, the Brits were resplendant in scarlet mess dress and the regimental band and Corps of Drums did their best to remind the Americans why they should never have left the Empire. Sadly a disagreement occurred between two officers. No one could remember what it was but it quickly developed into a full blow argument. Finally one officer called for the Mess Colour Sgt and asked for his glove. He took the glove and swiped it across the face of the other officer. The room went silent, everyone looked at the stricken officer, who then very quietly with a voice that could crack ice said 'Pistols and tonight'

The Commanding Officer spoke to both officers and suggested with his utmost authority that this was a bloody stupid idea and should stop at once. The reply from both was simple 'It's our right and we intend to use it'. With a face like thunder the CO told the Second in Command to carry on. A drummer and an Ambulance were called for and Seconds were chosen. Once again both the CO and the 2i/c called for the officers to see reason but they were steadfast in their desire for honour.

Finally the scene was set. The ambulance was parked up with blue light flashing, the Corps of Drums were formed up less the duty Drummer who would beat the time (solid chaps the Drummers, always game to see two officers twat each other) and the whole mess went out onto the lawn to bear witness to the proceedings. Another decanter of port was called for as the officers settled down to watch the spectacle. It was about this time that the Americans began to get cold feet. The Senior one suggested that it would not be a good thing Diplomatically for them to witness such an event. All his entreaties were poo - pooed, after all it was all legal and above board. As the two protagonists lined up the CO clearly said to them that whilst it was legal for them to duel he strongly advised them to think again as it might have a not so good an effect on their careers, especially on the one who was shot. Both men were adamant that honour had to be satisfied. Senior American was by this time very edgy and was suggesting that perhaps he should call the Embassy to clear the Americans to watch such a spectacle. Again the CO poo-pooed him and pointed out that it was both legal and a matter of honour.

The two protagonists donned ponchos (in order to protect their scarlet jackets from the mud should they fall) and stood back to back. The 2i/c again advised them to be reasonable and again was ignored, he raised his handkerchief, the drum began to roll and the officers walked the ten paces before turning to fire. The Senior American looked away in horror, the young Captain fell to his knees and started saying Hail Marys, they turned, the drumbeat stopped and they fired. One man went down, a large red splosh on his poncho and the American Doctor shot out to tend the wounded man. She got there and he smiled at her and said 'Have you never seen a paintball gun'.

I would like to say that the Americans saw that they had been the butt of a huge and well meant practical joke, sadly they threw an enormous sulk and called us (err!! them) most unfunny sort of chaps. No accounting for the American sense of humour I suppose.
