Dorm Room Pranks
DORM ROOM
BATHROOM AMBUSH
When you’re living with someone in a small space, the opportunities for pranking them are endless. If your dorm mate has been having too much fun at your expense, has already pranked you, or is just plain asking for, why stop at one prank? The Bathroom Ambush will teach them a lesson they won’t forget. First, wet their toothbrush and coat it with salt. The salt will dissolve some on the wet brush, making it harder to see, but the taste will not. If you are lucky enough to have a suite with your own bathroom, tape the faucet too. Remove the shower head and coat the inside with coarse sugar. This will come out clear but dry very sticky. If you don’t share a bathroom, you may want to omit this step, unless you want the entire floor looking for the jerk responsible for their stickiness. Finally, put a thin layer of Icy Hot on their deodorant. If you do share a bathroom, wet one of your roommate’s towels thoroughly but not to the point where it is dripping, place it in the bathroom, and hide all the rest. If you use a communal bathroom, you will still need one towel and hide the rest. Cut a large circle (about the size of a plate) in the center of the towel and refold it so the hole is not visible. If you aren’t already in a dorm war, you will be now.
INVISIBLE BARRIER
You can do this to a door in your dorm room or even to one of the entrances to your floor. It’s best done at night when it’s dark and people are tired or otherwise incapacitated. You’ll need a roll of saran wrap, tape, and a blow dryer. The saran wrap can be applied up and down or side to side, but try not to have major creases at eye level. Tape each end of the strips to the door frame, then take the blow drier and slowly and carefully tighten the saran wrap to get rid of wrinkles and slack. Most bleary eyed people walking across a dim room or hallway haven’t got a chance against this prank. You can even stand on the other side of the “door” so the creases are less visible, but after they bounce off, you’d better run!
LOVE MOM
If you’re living with a mama’s boy, or at least have access to his dorm room, then you have to try this prank. Nab a picture of his mother when he’s out of the room and keep it for a few days. The more obvious the picture was (in his wallet or framed on his desk), the sooner he’s going to realize it’s gone. And the bigger it is, the easier it will be for him to notice it when it’s back in the room. The next time you are alone in his dorm room, bring a bottle of lotion and slip the lotion and his mother’s picture beneath his dorm mate’s pillow. It’s best to have the picture face up and peeking out a bit, but if he doesn’t see it on his own, you can always point and ask “What’s that?” If you aren’t his roommate and don’t tell his roommate about your plan, then this also makes an excellent double prank. Apparently he’s not the only one that loves Mom…
A FINAL PRANK
With finals nearing, who knows when or if you will ever see your dorm mate again? After this prank, at least you know they’ll never forget you. The night before a big final, your roommate is likely to be much stressed. As it gets later and they start to wane, remind them of how important sleep is to good test performance, and offer them a “sleeping pill.” This can be a placebo, an aspirin, even a vitamin; it doesn’t matter as long as they buy it. The power of persuasion is strong, and you might be surprised by how quickly they pass out after taking the so-called sleeping pill. Take this opportunity to black out the windows using shoe polish or even just by taping black construction paper over it. Since it’s already dark, it’s unlikely that they will notice if they get up in the middle of the night. You might also want to push something against the bottom of the door to keep light from coming in that way. Wait until your roommate is sound asleep before resetting their own alarm clock. Then set an alarm a half hour earlier than theirs on your cell phone. Be sure to set it to vibrate, so it wakes only you. The next morning, quietly go around the dorm setting all of the clocks forward. If your roommate has a cell phone, it is pertinent that you reset its clock also, or at the very least that you hide it. Dress quietly, put on your shoes, open the door quietly, then slam it as hard as possible. When your roommate wakes up startled, exclaim, “Are you still sleeping?! Did you even go to your final today?” If they ask you what time it is, tell them that it’s night already, and that they’ve been sleeping all day. Enjoy their bewildered state of panic as they check all the clocks, then clear off a window and tell them to get to class.
