I am not so much now, but as a child I used to go to my Grandma and Grandads in the school holidays and we would go shopping and my Grandma introduced me to the world of practical jokes! She would take me to the joke shop when we went shopping and we would buy tricks to play on my Grandad.
One of the first was the old fake dog poo, we cunningly planted it in the kitchen and made yellow water to put over it, so it looked like the dog had not only done poo poo, but had weed as well. My grandad fell for it hook, line and sinker, he went mental and was so not impressed when he found out!
The second best trick we played on him, was we put farting powder in his food and his drinks, my Grandad hated farting, he thought it was disgusting and rude and you never would hear my grandad fart! Anyway he ate his food and drunk his drink and I tell you this stuff really works, he could not hold it in at all and he kept scurrying out of the room and you could hear him blowing off for miles, me and my Grandma just sat giggling and we could not stop it was hilarious. We played many pranks on that poor man, including whoopee cushions, itching powder and soap that leaves your face black!!
So thinking of these kinds of jokes, have any of you ever played them on anyone? what is the funniest joke you have ever played on anyone?
Do you think that me and my Grandma was cruel to do this to my poor Grandad?

No I am not a practical joker, but my grandmother was when she was a child. She once dressed up as a hobo and stole her grandmother's silverware right in front of her. Her grandmother bedridden and keep yelling for someone to come and stop her.
Then she took the disguise off and her grandmother was so angry with her. She got in trouble for that one.

I'm not a practical joker. I don't have time for it. I am always too serious and trying to think straight to get ahead in life. My husband, however, is a practical joker. He loves to have fun and pull jokes and pranks on people. My husband likes to pretend to hypnotise people with a cup of water. When he is done hypnotising them, they have black stuff all over their face because he burns the bottom of the cup with a lighter and they have to rub it and make movements while touching their face.
