Let the Pranks Begin

Very recently my roommate and a friend of mine decided it would be a good idea to prank me when I left for class. This was a big mistake as me and my friends went through a huge pranking stage during high school; we mostly did car pranks, but its the same concept. The pinnacle of this pranking stage was probably when I came outside with my girlfriend to find my Jeep up on blocks.

But back to the story, they decided that it would be hilarious if they hid roughly 4x6 pictures around my room in inconspicuous places. These places included the inside of my laptop, the drawer containing my keyboard, the page in a book I had bookmarked, under my covers, in the bottom of my hamper, and my personal favorite, the inside of my lampshade (Don’t worry i checked my feeder 2.2 folder and it was spared). This last one was actually really funny, I could not see the picture until i turned on my lamp, the light eerily illuminated this very gross picture and I could not help but laugh. They also put a very nasty background on my computer and set my internet explorer homepage as something equally disgusting. I did not find much humor in this as it lacked any creativity.

When I found all of these pictures strewn about my room I reused them and hid them on his side. These were spur of the moment and I couldn’t plan it out too much but some highlights were hiding them at the bottom of his cereal, taped on one of his soda cans and stapled to the bottom of his shower flip flops.

After about an hour of passively brainstorming I came up with one for the record books. He brought with him a masterpiece of a painting that he created last year in high school. It is a very large blue lion... I don’t know. It now resides in a nice frame on our wall. It is very dear to him, if anything happened to it, he would be furious. For this reason I decided it would be my painting. The next weekend he leaves town I plan on photocopying this picture, hiding the original, then, after vandalizing the photocopied lion (I plan on giving the lion a mustache and many other things, add suggestions in your comments), put it in the picture frame for him too see upon returning from his time away.
