Be Prepared to Giggle and Never Grow Up!
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.

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!!

The only kind of practical joke I have ever participated in, regretfully, was loosening the lids on all the salt shakers in the diner when I was in high school. Primitive, I know.

We made my dad think his vine had sprouted in grapes overnight by affixing plastic grapes to it!!
I like the super simple sewing book. I have been wanting to learn.
My oldest son played a joke on his 18 year old brother when he got his first car. Older son snagged his keys and rolled down the driver's window, put a rock on the seat and spread some broken glass pieces on the ground in front of driver's side window to make it look like someone threw a rock through his car window overnight. He finally fessed up when my son was going to call the police to report the incident.

We convinced my buddy to put Icy Hot in his underwear. There is a lot of detail I won't fill in, but it was hilarious.
My husband does the old rubber band over the sink sprayer trick on me often. I think it is funny but I can never trick him with it.

One year for April Fools Day, I pored jello into cups and added a straw. I placed them in the fridge to harden. The next morning I served the kids their "juice". It was funny seeing them try to drink it.

When I was in high school we had a teacher that was easily messed with...one day at the end of our senior day we all went to class as usual but locked the door after us and when he came to class he couldn't get in and he kept knocking and knocking but we acted like we couldn't hear him! When he went to the principal to get a key we all quickly ran to the parking lot so when he returned it made him look crazy cause the door was open and no one was there! Now I don't know how funny this actually was but it did make him really mad! I was forced to participate in this or else they would have killed me!

Haha - Last summer, after saying a final goodbye to some friends when we were moving across the country, we put a dirty diaper in their car. We figured They'd find it when they went out later. Their plans changed, however, and they didn't find it until the next day.
They said the odor was horrible.
They deserved it though. They had pulled a similar joke on us more than a year before.

My brother would get the lotto numbers ( which were not televised until later when a baseball game was on ) and "divine" the correct numbers as they appeared!

Hubby has the best practical joke - he stuck the sound part from a Christmas card in the ventilation system at work! The ducts amplified the sound, and no-one could find where the tinny carols were coming from for weeks!

Well I took a "rain coat" and filled it with conditioner and put it on my sisters door. When she went to open the door she freaked,
We put a toilet in my in-laws yard with a "surprise" inside. Don't worry, it was a fake :)
My sisters and I would just do mean psychological practical jokes on each other. Scaring was the most fun, but tricking them into confessing to our parents was even better! This book is right up my alley since I'm going to have my own kid in about 3 weeks!

I became a insider.
My husband was all excited because he "won" money at a scratch off ticket and I got all excited untill I read it and it was a fake.
My son and I took off on a last minute trip to tour all of the major stadiums between Virgina and Boston 2 years ago. I called my mom and told her we actually went to Canada and now they wouldn't let my son back in the country withou a passport and I didn't understand WHY they would let him into Canada without warning us that he couldn't come back into the states but that I found a really nice family he could stay with while I came home to find his passport. It was mean lol but my 12 yr old son and I got a big kick out of it. My mom freaked and then I told her the truth but she went ahead and played the same joke on the rest of the family.
The LEGO Crazy Action Contraptions looks cool!
I once told my friend that if she sang a song..."mmm mmm good, buritos are good, mmm, mmm good buritos are good"... at the counter of Taco Bell, they would give her food for free. She did sing..and they did not give her food.
We all did laugh our hineys off.
Wow, there are some great books at KLUTZ. The Lego Crazy Action Contraptions would send my son over the moon.
A classmate once put some itching powder on my clothes, yeah it wasn't that funny to me =p

Button on my blog.
i came home early and hid in the house and when my mother came home i jumped out and scared her.
We were camping and hiking for two weeks with a co-ed group in high school. We had just hiked seven miles and were famished. It was a camp where we got to make tacos, but afterward, we were too tired to do the dishes, so we set them on rocks a few hundred yards away. I overheard some of the guys talking about it, but I let it go, thinking it would be funny to see my two other tent mates' reactions. Well, one had also heard, but the other hadn't. The guys started banging pots a few hours later, then attacked the tent. I was laughing so hard, I almost peed myself.
Another book that interests me: Battery Science
