Got some prank ideas for me?

[Disco Pickle]

so my cubicle cohort is out for a week @ swanee fest, drinking and dancing in the mud with hairy hippy women.  I've got his password and was kicking around some ideas on what to do to his computer that is both funny and SFW.

I've got some pictures I'm digging through to leave as his desktop, but more are always welcome.

I know some of you spags are much better pranksters than I am.  Give me your ideas that wont get me fired.

Buzz Lightyear as the background.

Then arrange all the icons into 2 coloumns and screenshot it.  Set that as background.

Move the icons over until they're in clear space.  Screenshot that , rinse and repeat.

Then, once you have a desktop composed entirely of icon screenshots over Buzz Lightyear, reposition every icon ina  differnet column over it's screenshotted doppelganger.

that's a great idea.  I was going to go a bit riskier than buzz lightyear, but the icon idea is fucking great.

If you can alter power settings, mess with when the screen will click off, hibernate the computer, etc, depending how much you like the guy.

Re-organize his favorite internet links.

Musical chairs with system sounds, and put the horrible windows default stop noise back on.

Lower the mouse sensitivity, trun on trails, and raise or lower the double click speed as far as it will go.

Mess with the accesability settings, especially for the shift key.

Change the desktop theme.

Add taskbar shortcuts for EVERYTHING.

I'm a fan of wrapping everything in tin foil.



EVERYTHING.

EVERYTHING.

I was thinking saran wrap.  Seems it would be much more annoying to remove.

Either way, everything individually. Every pen, every pencil, every eraser, every folder...EVERYTHING.

Paint the tips of every writing implement on or in his desk with clear nail polish.

Rename all desktop icons.  Your choice as to how "bad" you want to be.  When our boss turned 50 we renamed everything along the "over the hill" theme, preperation h, depends and so forth.

We once filled a co-workers cubicle completely with shredded paper, wrapped it in wrapping paper and tied it with a bow.  That was a bit expensive though.

Fill out ever increasing in hysteria message notes with vague references to terrible things.  Leave the dial-a-prayer or something along those lines phone number.

If your whole office is in on it, send one or however many vague referenced emails to everyone with one liners about something terrible that happened in the person's absence and how bad you feel for them when they get back.

Anything you do in their absence paperwork wise, leave a blank copy on their desk with a note, I thought you would want to handle personally so they think they are coming back to a shit ton of paperwork.

A friend of mine correctly labeled everything in her boss' office.

EVERYTHING. Every paper clip was labeled "paper clip".

It drove him insane.

it's a shared space so filling it with shit is out.  Getting everyone else in on it probably wont happen as I'm surrounded with engineers that seem to walk around with a serious face all the time.  The only time I've seen most of them relax is on the occasional after-work bar fest.

Also, Im going on my vacation first week of May, so I don't want to inspire him to be TOO vindictive.

I might do that as I'm wrapping everything.  Only problem is I have to accomplish this over lunch breaks for the next few days.

Enlist help. We covered one of my coworker's cubes with post-it's once...WITH MESSAGES ON THEM. Richter was in on it too...so was half the dept including the supers.
