All you need to have for a fun evening with a too-trusting friend are a couple of logs, a long piece of 2 by 4s, a bin, and a blindfold.
Here’s a simple yet diabolically genious prank that you shouldn’t pull on anybody, you hear? Link

As far as street pranks go, this one is pretty sophisticated. And funny. Here’s the "legal to pee" prank that hit Nottingham, UK:
The signs, which were put up by pranksters in and around Nottingham, are designed to look official.
They feature a toilet sign and include the words: "Public Urination Permitted After 7.30pm".
Nottingham City Council is now urging the public to ignore the notices as it sets about removing them. [...]
The prank also featured a laminated note, headed with the logo of Nottingham City Council, which said the scheme was aimed at reducing the mess faced by residents outside their homes.

When Ben Kinsley and Robin Hewlett of Carnegie Mellon University found out that Google Street View is coming to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the duo arranged a more "interesting" view of the street: they staged a marathon, a parade, a mad-scientist laboratory, and even a sword fight!

Now this is a clever and entertaining classroom prank: here’s Reach! A lecture musical prank by Prangstgrüp, starring Mike Barry with lyrics by Brian Jacobs. Even Prof. James Valentini, who teaches chemistry at Columbia College was amused.

IKEA is definitely nicer than my house… well, maybe not nicer, but definitely cleaner and more organized. So it makes total sense to have a party there, which is exactly what the people at Cockeyed did. Dinner at the buffet (why not? I could always go for their Swedish meatballs), then on to various dining tables and living rooms to play BananaGrams, Boggle and Catchphrase. Looks like a good time was had by all.
What could you do with thousands of dixie cups? Here’s a teacher-pranking-teacher moment, photographed for your enjoyment:
Every single one of those 10,000 dixie cups was full of water. It took 10 people 3 hours to painstakingly set those things up and fill them. Every single horizontal surface we could get to was covered. There were even dixie cups in the desk drawers.
TIME has a fascinating account of the 10 biggest pranks in geek history. This one is the infamous Hollywood sign prank, perpetrated by (who else?) Caltech students:
During Hollywood’s centennial in 2003, Caltech’s Prank Club tackled the famous Hollywood sign with cherry pickers, large sheets of black and white plastic, and duct tape. They hung just enough plastic so that from a distance, the sign appeared to read "Caltech." "Hollywood is still mad about that," says Autumn Looijen, author of the prank history, Legends of Caltech III: Techer In the Dark. The sign assailants’ names never surfaced, but their work has become famous on campus. (Both Caltech and MIT tout their students’ pranks on their admissions websites.)
Here’s a funny article at ZUG, written by Joe the Peacock of Mentally Incontinent about his experiences working at America’s favorite store: Wal-Mart …
I first heard about the Wal-Mart position from a friend of mine who was working the early morning shift at the famous discount retailer. He explained that the electronics department needed a full-time employee on the overnight shift, because the last person who worked there was caught masturbating to a Cindy Crawford workout tape at 2 AM while the other employees were goofing off in the break room.
Sadly, I’m not kidding.
Joe went on to describe how he was pranked at Wal-Mart, got fired by an unscrupulous gang who framed him for theft, and how he got a sweet, sweet revenge: Link – via Miss Cellania (who has a whole list of Wal-Mart related websites)
Toronto’s street artist Dan Bergeron (aka fauxreel) created this billboard advertising cheap lobotomy with a local phone number where people could call and leave messages. Surprisingly, a lot of people actually called to request lobotomies!
