Need an idea for a prank

[BattleHymn]

I need an idea for a prank to retaliate for a prank that was pulled on my wife and her parents by her sister and boyfriend last year at Thanksgiving. 

They thought it was funny to make everybody think they were going to have a baby together, and that one was already on the way. 

I'm fishing for ideas here.  Anyone has a particularly dastardly idea, throw it on me!

Call and say you'll be late to dinner, because you were arrested for drunk driving.

[BattleHymn]

I always show up late anyways.  That might be just the ticket!  

I like the emotional stress factor.  Nice.

You could always set it up that your wife has discovered that she's a lesbian and you're going to get a sex change operation. If they're not Liberals, they'll freak out.....

They're flaming, FLAMING libtards.

If they thik it's a great idea, then ask for a loan for the operation, and take a nice vacation.

Do either one of you have any critical physical defects that they would know about ?? IF not, then you could always tell them that both of y'all have joined the Army and have asked to be assigned to Afghanistan and that y'all will leave for basic training right after the holidays. If you have children, you could play it up by asking them to be their guardians for the duration....

...and legally change my name to Ronald Reagan.

...and legally change my name to Ronald Reagan. 

I like this one.  Though, the sex change one is good, too, because even though they're flaming libtards as you describe them, flaming libtards generally want other people's families to conform to their way of thinking.

'Course, you could stick with the Army enlistment/name change, but also tell them that your wife is changing hers to Elizabeth . . . Cheney . . .

I like this!

[NHSparky]

Tell them you're out-of-state and that you've been detained by Homeland Security for refusing to be anally fisted by the TSA.

[IassaFTots]

I think you need to incorporate the Tea Party into it. I am going to give this some thought. 

[njpines]

They're flaming, FLAMING libtards.   
 

Tell them you're bringing the bird this year courtesy of a hunting trip you went on with Dick Cheney and Uncle Ted! 

[Eupher]

You could say you made the short list of candidates in being considered for a focus group that studies the effects of long-term liberalism on Americans.

One of your proposals that has also made the short list is to study your own family.

That'll make 'em uncomfortable as hell.

[JohnnyReb]

Call ahead and tell them you have something you need to show them and you'll show them when you get there. Show up dressed like a woman. Have your wife do you a good job on makeup and dressing you up. Tell them "I'm coming out. It's such a load off my mind after all these years." .....but forego the thong underwear and wear some granny panties...please....

Crotchless, though. You wanna give your boys some room to breathe. 

[littlelamb]

Don't forget the garters and thigh highs if you do the woman thing

This prank thing is so much fun, last year for Xmas one of you gave me the idea to put money in a box and pour cement over it to make a brick the gifted had to break into. 

This year, not for Thanksgiving but Xmas I need another idea that will drive them nuts.

I don't pull pranks at Thanksgivings as it is one of the few American Hollidays we have and we are there to remember all we as a nation have gone through to become who and what we are.

I just thank heavens that Ben Franklin did not get his way by making the turkey our national bird.

Back in the day - when I worked for Bechtel at the nuke power plant in Richland, WA, a coworker (good beer drinking buddy) made posters of my head on the body of a "world renowned" accordion player that was playing in the area. He posted them EVERYWHERE in the 20 offices I worked in!
I had coworkers walking up to my desk saying, "I didn't know you played the accordion. I'll be there to watch your concert!

That dirty bastard! I can barely play a Jews Harp let alone an accordion.

Every town has one of those free small advert newspapers where you can cheaply advertise the private sale of your car, cat, used underwear, mother-in-law, and used stereo gear. In the Tri-Cities, WA where I lived, it was the Thrifty Nickle.
I bought an ad for an "All natural herbal colon-rectal cleansing service. We offer 8 different flavors including Jasmine, Basil, Sage, and many more. All natural, removes poisons from your body leaving you refreshed and empowered. All performed in the privacy of your home or in our discrete facility."
I added his name using his true first name of Mike but phonetically spelled his last name so as to change it. I added his home phone number as well.

The paper is released on Thursdays, that evening I gathered up about 25 copies of it, found the advert, circled it in red then took them to work with me the next day. I opened the paper to the circled advert page and dropped them throughout the break room and on tables and work areas throughout the office. He actually received about 10 calls at home inquiring about his "services".

It took him about two days to figure out who did this to him (ME!) and he never pranked me again yet I will say I love the guy and he is a great friend.

Early the next week the top-dog site manager for Bechtel, a vice president, shows up at my desk and in earshot of the 30 cubes in the office says, "that was the best joke/prank I have ever seen! DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN! As we do not want to make the wrong impression with our customer.

Good one.

Worst I ever took part in was disassembling somebody's desk and hiding the entire thing in the closet.  Those Facilities guys are freaks.

I used to go to the pre-expended bin, grab a couple of low value capacitors, charge them up with a megger, and then go around the hangar, holding the capacitor by the body and would say, "Here, catch". Almost always, someone would grab it. Of course, I had the leads carefully located so that when a person caught it, they couldn't help but hit the leads, discharging the capacitor in their hand.

Har de freakin har--that was funny during the second week of "A" school, maybe.

Of course, nowadays that'd be enough to get your ass canned or time off at the very least.

Although it's always a hoot to go up to someone who has left their computer unlocked and put a whole bunch of "safe for work" but tasteless websites into their browser favorites, like the Obama campaign, gay magazines, the local anti-nuke groups, etc...

I like the idea of doing a screencap of a persons desktop, then setting that picture as the backgound, and finally hide their desktop icons.  The screencap makes it look like the icons are still there, but they won't work as shortcuts.

We didn't have access to parts like that during A School. Yeah, I suppose that people wouldn't take it as very funny nowadays....... We didn't have desktop computers for most of my career. I think it was 85 before they really started using them and even then, there was no internet access. Although I use to tinker with my Division Chief's laptop, writing funny command line stuff that made it look like it was going to format the drive or silly stuff like that.
