just go to their keyboard, and switch letters around, the keys pop off and click back on.
or set their mouse to be left handed, so the buttons are reversed...



ok, back to sleep

speaking of which... here's a great gag to play on windows users.

1) take a screenshot of their desktop (icons, start bar etc... essentially a screenshot of windows without any apps open)

2) set that screenshot as their background image

3) change the desktop settings in order to hide ALL their icons (they'll still see them b/c the icons in the background image)

4) hide the taskbar (to do this just move your mouse to the edge of the task bar and you'll see the "resize" mouse pointer... then just drag down to shrink it to nothing). again they'll still see this b/c its in the screenshot which you've set as their background image

now they'll desktop will look normal... but everything they can click on is just a part of the background image and they'll trip out thinking their machine is broken.


another cool gag for PC folks. I this used to work but might have changed in windows xp (havent sued a pc for a while). You know the windows logo you seen when you reboot the machine? well that's a file called logo.sys (if i remember its in c:\windows or c:\windows\system32 (or do a search for it). you can edit that image in MS Paint... so find out what antivirus their using and edit that file to look like a screen where their antivirus software is telling them they have 1,000 fatal viruses. save the file (might have to save ana bmp then rename it to logo.sys) then shut off their machine. next time they use it they'll have to reboot and they'll see, what they think is, their antivirus software telling them they have a bunch of viruses

have fun... and dont blame me is you break stuff. these should be harmless pranks tho

Reverse the X/Y axis of their mouse and put a folder called "MOUSE VIRUS" on the desktop. Stop them before they take it to Geek Squad though. They might be peeved if they get it "repaired".




Not that I have ever stooped to such tactics. Not that I have way dirtier tricks up my sleeve.



You should see what I do to people who connect to my wide open wireless network at home. Not pretty.

Ooooh yes! I for one would definately NOT like to be bonked out by my dentist... funny little Indian man...

Film quote (you've all got to guess which film this is from):
Bridesmaid: "What's bonking?"
Scarlet: "Well, it's like table tennis... only with slightly smaller balls".

:D :D :D Now I know we love discussing Balls here but Beth's comment did make me chuckle bearing our UK meaning in mind!
