April Fool's Day Office Prank

Options
Alright, I need a good idea for a prank to pull on my fellow employees this year. I do this every year but am drawing a black this year. In previous years I have

1) Velcro'd everything down (mouse, keyboard, telephone, etc.)
2) Post-It noted everything in the office (and labeled each item!)
3) Drew funny pictures on everyone's white boards
4) Bubble-wrapped everyone's chairs, PC's and monitors
5) Exchanged everyone's mice and keyboards forcing them to find the correct one at someone else's desk

I'm not allowed to do anything extravagent as we have a couple Donald and Debbie Downers in my department but any good ideas are certainly welcome!

    Hope they all have a good sense of humor! I saw a story on Yahoo yesterday where someone pulled a prank on the boss and got fired.

    Good Luck!!

    Hit ctrl+alt+down arrow and flip everyone's monitor display upside down. :smile: The day I did that was a fun day.

    those all sound fun. We would probably get written up for touching other people's computers, but it would be funny.

    Buy them all Starbucks Lattes and watch them gain weight.

    :huh: I just tried the CTRL+ALT+Down arrow key and nothing happened

    I would love to do the packing peanuts to everyone's desk as well but there's 35 of us (too much to bring in) and everyone has an open office so it wouldn't have the same effect.

    funniest thing I ever did was use a fart machine at the mall. its a little device u buy with a remote. someone else has to be in on it. they wear the littel gadget, you walk around around the mall and set it off while away from them. they keep a straight face and watch everyone else freak. I was a littel drunk and I ended up peeing my pants in the mall. yes. I did. boom. it was the funniest thing that ever happened to me though!

    Last year my co-worker was going to wrap our supervisor's office completely in aluminum foil. The stapler, computer, phone...etc. Would have been pretty funny.

    Simple but funny.
    Put scotch tape on the bottom of the mouse eye. The tape blocks the signal so, while the mouse moves, the pointer doesnt.
