Thought I'd share a story if you want to read it. It doesn't involve making anything, but it is fun to do if its needed. Anyways, here is the story:

We were camping on a big camping trip for boy scouts, and it was a week long. We got there early, because a lot of the tent/cabin things were full of spiders and we'd prefer not to have them. The tent/cabin things were raised wooden platforms with a big tent over them. Anyways, we got in our tent, and all the other tents had spiders. These 2 guys whos tent had the most spiders wanted our tent badly. So they told the scoutmaster that it didn't feel right sleeping in their tent, because our ten is where they had been every year, and they just didn't want to break tradition. Well of course, we won the argument and got to keep our tent. Later that night, however, we suspected them coming, because they were very mad. So we stayed up, me with a flashlight, and my brother with a can of axe. We had also tied some rope from either side of our tent poles. Once they opened the flaps, they tripped on the rope, my brother sprayed them with axe, and i used a special feature on my flashlight that produced a piercing siren that was so loud, especially in the complete silence of the night. Of course, these "macho" boys screamed and ran off. Revenge is a dish best served, uh, loud.


Please post any stories you have about camping, pranks, or just anything people would find funny.

Well, I haven't done it yet. But I'm working on a ghillie suit and I plan on starting my own tradition at halloween and any other holiday I can think of where punk kids come around to my door. I'm gonna hide in my garden and just have some fun.

The only real pranks I've done is TPing and stuff. The best part of that was the look on the Wal-Mart cashiers face when we walked up to the register with 72 rolls of toilet paper and about 2000 plastic forks.

[gotbass7]

Haha. I never understood what the forks were for. Do you just put them on the end of each roll?

[keep_it_real]

No you just throw them all over the place.

[paaiyan]

Haha, amateurs. No, you take the multitude of forks, and stick them in the ground. It may not sound like too much, but think about waking up in the morning to find your home and property covered in TP, and your yard laden with 1000 plastic forks. When you've got 8 people putting them out, not too much time is involved. At one house we unleashed about 24 rolls of TP and 1000 plastic forks in a little under 5 minutes. They were pretty ticked upon awakening, or so we heard.

[gotbass7]

ok then you do put them on the toilet paper. remember, sarcasm doesnt work on typing

[paaiyan]

No no, you stick the pointy end in the ground. The forks are more funny than anything. They aren't difficult to pull out, it's just a pain to bend over and pull out 1000. I have a friend, my youth minister actually, that used over 5000 forks on one yard. They pretty much covered the yard with them, then layered TP on top of the forks, then watered it down.

Listen guys, if you ever want prank ideas, you come to me. I've got quite a repertoire of ideas. Anything from harmless TP and plastic forks to stuff that is sure to completely infuriate anyone who may fall victim to it.

This isn't exactly funny but it's just weird/scary/retarded

I was just listening to the news on the radio. The first thing they they talked about is that a well respected scientist just came out with some new predictions that in 10 years, the global warming problem might be irreversible basically meaning we're screwed. Next, it was that 10 US soldiers were just killed in Iraq cause we want more oil to burn so we can continue our quest to heat up the world. Last, some whales were found swimming the wrong way up some river with no human intervention (other than global warming ). This was all in a 2 minute session and everything they talked about was somehow linked to global warming. I'm just pissed that's all.

well i know two good prank ideas. one is you know those potatoe guns that you buy and you stick it into a potatoe and press and it shoots a bit of potatoe? well shooting those at cars. it doesnt do damange, but its pretty annoying. second, i saw these prank where this guy went away for the weekend and they took a lot of phonebooks and ripped them all up and filled the room over half way up and covered the walls with them

[MrCrowley]

I wouldn't do the car thing, as a driver myself i would get pretty forked off at you, not for shooting them at my car but it could cause me to crash. Its not a very sensible thing to do. You shouldn't do it again, thats the last thing a driver wants is some kid firing bits of potatoes at him whiles he's trying to drive.

[gotbass7]

well i know it sounds worse then it is, but consider that they arent potatoe guns like on here. we shoot em at eachother you dont notice them. the thing is that it might leave jsut a temporary potatoe juice residue. now shooting a combustive cannon is a whole different thing, but these you just push and it shoots a tiny bit of air shooting it out, and the potatoe piece if half a centimeter big.

Yeah i know what you mean but a distraction is a distraction and when someone is drivng at 70kmh or 30mph its not a joke, especially if they see you shoot it, they can look like guns and you may duck or swereve to get out of the way in the car.

ya global warming is real. but luckily a lot of people are doing things to delay it. Because no matter what, it was gonna happen. we just sped it up. It was going to happen in a long time, because even cow farts contribute to it. There was actually an article on that.

[keep_it_real]

In scotland, cows and other animals make up 46% of their emissions. Haha beeno for cows...

[gotbass7]

I heard in america its 15. Probably because we have the hummer drivers.

hey hummers are cool. id like to see a gas "efficiant" car do half the stuff that hummers do.

[gotbass7]

i know. they dont do anything hummers do. they cant pollute the environment they cant run over birds like that and they cant hide the fact that middle aged men arent young anymore!
