Pranks Gone Wrong...

The other day I was basking in old memories and I thought I would write down a few old stories or pranks that were pulled..

- I remember as a child our house was toilet papered on a weekly basis, and we definitely knew who the weiners were...apparently a lot of the neighbourhood boys had a crush on my older sister and thought they could win her heart over by toilet papering our house...unfortunately she never had to clean it up...Alan and I always got stuck with the task, then we had a brilliant idea to start saving the toilet paper to get them back...we had to hide months worth of collected toilet paper in garbage bags under Alan's bed so my mom wouldn't find it and get mad (kinda gross I know.) Well after we had more toilet paper than you could imagine saved...we went and toilet papered the Hogg's house and boy did we ever get them good...It literally looked like it had snowed there was so much white...needless to say Alan and I were cleaning up toilet paper every weekend after.....it just seemed to never end.

-When I was younger I was a little mischievous...My friend and I went to her house after school and were a little annoyed to see that all the fruit snacks and chips were gone...we look over and her older's sister's friend is scarfing down exactly what we were craving...we were ticked...In return we went and found some of her dog's pooh, smeared a little on a chocolate cookie and gave it to her sister's friend...she said thanks and started to move the cookie towards her mouth, meanwhile her sister could tell by our expressions that we had done something bad....she knocked the cookie out of her hand and yelled, "don't eat it" She examined the cooking only to find the pooh...went and told her mom and I was indeed sent home.....I know that one was bad...don't judge me I was young. Let's just say I was really influenced by my friend hahah

-In high school I was dating a guy and we were going to head up to my mom's class at the elementary school to steal some tokens for hot lunch...well my b/f wasn't anywhere to be seen when the lunch bell rang so I took one of my BFF's Cara....I knew she would appreciate a good roast beef meal. The meal was fabulous and we spent way to much time there...we rushed back to my car, got in and turned on the engine...seconds later we hear some weird sound in the back...we turn around only to be surprised by two live gophers, tied together scurrying around...I was terrified and Cara being the animal lover she is was disgusted...I made her catch the sick things and untie, and let the rabid animals go...we were indeed late for class....when I approached my boyfriend at the end of the day all he could say was...."I thought I was supposed to go to lunch with you....that's what you get!" Our relationship didn't last long.

-When in high school I was either really liked...or really hated...every basketball or volleyball trip that I would return from my car would be soaped/paint-balled so bad, there was no way of driving home...It got so bad that when I would get back from the bus trip the janitor would greet me by the gym door with a warm bucket and water and help me scrub off the soap just enough to be able to see out the window and drive home. He would always say...ughgh they sure got you good this time....Doug Pitcher...bless that man's heart. Well after hearing of who the culprit was I snagged his keys without him knowing and got another key cut...we went and opened 4 cans of tuna and placed them under his seats of his car....unfortunately that night he got in a car accident and he got a new vehicle in no time...ughgh my pranks never seemed to work.

-Once I left high school and moved up to Edmonton I thought finally the pranks will end...but nope one night the roomies and I were sitting in the living room and our door swings open...some hooligans in toques covering their faces, unloaded 4 bags of raked leaves right into the house....we ran after them and filled their vehicle back up with the leaves...pleased with our retaliation we thought the game was over!....to our dismay one day we were all at church, the hooligans struck again...you may be thinking why didn't you lock the doors? We did...they broke in through the window and left open cans of sardines...everywhere. It took us a good week to find all those dang cans, (under beds, under sinks, in our pantries, in the cleaning closet we thought we had finally disposed of them all but our house still wreaked big time...A week later I got an anonymous email that said..."look in your heat vent" we looked in it only to find a huge raw fish....just sick I tell you! We had big plans to get these turds back and even came up with a sweet name, "The Bad News Bandits" unfortunately we never followed through on our big pranks...and oh did we ever have some good ones!

*well sorry this was so long...I got a little carried away....but I wanna know who is up for toilet papering?...I wanna hear some good pranks anyone else has pulled or had pulled on them...come on share!

LOL This is great. I seriously love the two gophers prank and the raw fish in the heat vent! We totally had some guys pick up all the rotting Jack O Lanterns after Halloween and pile them on our front and back step so we couldn't get out of the house. I'm always up for a good prank!
