My Funny Picture

What are some good pranks to play on my neighbors across the hall?

My roommate and I are in college and we want to play a prank on the people across the hall from us. What are some good pranks?

1. we once glued all of our furniture to the ceiling - beds, chairs, all of it. We were on the second floor, so people who happened to look in our window saw the entire room, on the ceiling. My book budget & my crazy glue budget freshman year were about the same. If I had a nickle every time I glued my fingers together ... The stuff really is God's gift to freshman males. -- Something else we did, for no apparent reason, was to glue Pepsi & beer cans end to end, and extend them from the wall. It was sort of a game, to see who could get the longest line before they'd crumple. It was also a cool conversation piece when people would come over. -- One of the best things to do in a lab is to get some dry ice and pack it extremely tightly into an eppendorf tube (a small 1.5ml plastic tube with a lid, for the non-scientists) and place the tube into the pocket of an unsuspecting passerby. The tube will explode with an almighty bang with no real danger, unless the passerby happens to be mouth pipetting acid at the time. -- In college the guys were fond of "papering" people into their rooms with a wall of news paper acrossed the door. I went one further by filling up the gap between the newspaper and the door with styrfoam packing material. Let's just say the recipient (my RA!) was amuzed when he opened his door..... I always wanted to "JELLO" someone into their room. I figured that this could be accomplished with some caulking and some kind of plastic. It work work similar to the paper and styrofoam, but you'd seal the door with caulking, put a well sealed plastic on the door, and fill up the gap with jello. The only problem was one of refrigeration of the jello. Soooo...... I ran acrossed a substance known as anhydrous sodium poly-acrylate. It's used in diapers and other such application to absorb water. Basicly, a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic substance that holds up to 300 times its weight in water. With little water (10 to 1 or so) it is very much like jello and requires no refrigeration.
