The Situation

Wait I see now, Grakelin originally thought my fiancée was a man so fap is correct. The extra e usually makes these things clearer.

 

The House was likely of a different opinion five years ago.

While we're at it, how did you end up being a reptile, anyway? Your avatar thread answers the what, but not the why behind it.

 

From what I can tell, it was possibly due to the RP threads where members of the house created alternate personas that were world leaders in an alternate universe while keeping our forum names. I was Grossenschwamm, a 10 foot tall radioactive lizard man that led the country of Urwaldland as a benevolent-ish dictator, with my army of Dogmen enforcing the law.

 

Was not that in the State Of the World? Or is my memory faulty?

 

Not just your memory.

 

Inb4 who else's.

 

Not having enough time to set anything elaborate up, we went for your average lurk behind the door and make a very loud noise. The annoying thing was though he decided - out of the blue - to floss all of his teeth for about 10 minutes before entering his room, leaving us awkwardly poised for the whole time.

It was worth it though, he fell over on account of the fright - part of me wishes I'd have filmed it. I think the trick is to bother someone with two kinds of stimuli - flailing your arms around like a madman and screaming at the same time gets to people more than just making a loud noise. Thanks for everyone's suggestions, even if they didn't amount to anything exciting.

 

*speechless*

 

I had just thought of something for you to do - assemble a brick wall just behind his door, or perhaps put up a section of drywall - if the door opens outward as opposed to inside the flat, it'll be great. Try that next year if he's still living in the same place.

 

Or you could jump out from behind a corner and just stab him repeatedly in the stomach with a knife while laughing hysterically and screaming HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE at the top of your voice.

You could do that. But you don't have to.

Just saying.

 

Similar fun, less effort and less cleanup: brick wallpaper

 

Well...it'd have to be some really convincing print. At least with drywall the guy can break it down, and it essentially has the same effect as a real brick wall - that there never was a room.

I really liked Smuel's "I missed a year of my life" one, though.

 

Wolfsbane's idea is great especially if you get one of those performing arts dummy knives where the blade retracts back into the handle when you stab.

 

Stabbing someone with a retractable dummy knife would be pretty funny, but it greatly increases the chance they'll violently retaliate. He'll be at uni next year so if we visit him maybe we'll try the dry wall trick - I'd imagine it would make him pretty upset!

 

So, let me get this straight.

A) Person has a birthday, high hopes.

B) Person is surprised, shocked, disappointed.

C) Shock is revealed as just a prank.

D) Person is now even happier than at step (A) because steps (B) and (C) sucked.

Therefore, you play practical jokes on someone and laugh at them, because you want them to be happy?

 

Indeed, the initial shock intensifies the happiness. Besides, who wouldn't enjoy basking in my presence?

 

I understand. In that case, consider using raw electricity next year.

 

Brass doorknobs are great conductors of electricity.

 

Next time you could remove the doorknob from his bedroom door, and stick your erect cock through the hole instead. Then when he goes to open his door, he will touch your cock! Happy birthday, GAY STEVE!

 

Just make sure your penis is electrified as well.
