"QUANTUM SHOT" #151Top Office Pranks Just hope you're not the one to clean up after these "jokes": Wrapping everything in aluminum foil is the most popular prank. Here is one occasion: ![]() Here is another: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (images credit: Joseph Chung) and yet another: ![]() ![]() (images credit: Webshots) This one is playing on the foil's more ominous-looking reflective properties: ![]() ![]() (images credit: Matthew Batchelder) The second most popular prank is to fill cubicle with the packing material: ![]() (image credit: juicystyle) ![]() ![]() ![]() Wrapping everything in newspaper takes third place in popularity (and harder to do than wrapping in foil, as newspaper tends to be more unwieldy): ![]() ![]() (images credit: Snarkyman) Other occasions of newspaper (love that fresh newspaper smell?) ![]() (original unknown) ![]() ![]() (images credit: Kyle and Kelly Adams) ![]() (image credit: juicystyle) Various other pranks: ![]() (image credit: email, Strange Cosmos) ![]() ![]() (image credit: email, Strange Cosmos) Send us other pics of office pranks that you know about. --------- PRANK CORRESPONDENCE check out this "prank correspondence" with large corporations: Breeding M&M candies (found here) Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them cracks and splinters. That is the"loser," and I eat the inferior one immediately. The winner gets to go another round. I have found that, in general, the brown and red M&Ms are tougher, and the newer blue ones are genetically inferior... Occasionally I will get a mutation, a candy that is misshapen... When I reach the end of the pack, I am left with one M&M, the strongest of the herd. Since it would make no sense to eat this one as well, I pack it neatly in an envelope and send it to: M&M Mars, A Division of Mars, Inc. Hackettstown, NJ 17840-1503 U.S.A. along with a 3x5 card reading, "Please use this M&M for breeding purposes." This week they wrote back to thank me, and sent me a coupon for a free 1/2 pound bag of plain M&Ms. I consider this "grant money." I have set aside the weekend for a grand tournament. From a field of hundreds, we will discover the True Champion. There can be only one." -------------------------------------- World Domination Prank Read also the "prank" letter Martin Rebas sent to several large Swedish companies: "Dear representative of your highly regarded company! Your company is known for its friendly and generous image... With that as background, I ask you for help with one of my projects. I have, for lack of other occupation this afternoon, decided to try to take over Earth. Such a takeover would, among other things, comprise complete control over all the world's countries and companies - including, as I'm sure you'll realize, yours. I ask you to help me in my endeavour by voluntarily surrendering control of your company to me; this would help me considerably in my efforts. This need not mean any major changes for you - you may, by and large, continue as before, as long as you give me, say, 10% of every year's proceeds. I am open to suggestions..." Amazingly, he's got a few responses, read them here ---------------------------- You can have a bad job: ![]() ![]() ![]() ...or a good job: ![]() but unless you can paint money yourself: ![]() better keep your cool and plan your sweet revenge, when time comes around.
