How to fuck with people.

Get a sound recorder/player, record the sounds of a trapped (preferably mean) animal, then put the sound recorder/player in a trashcan or similar spot where people will think something is there and wonder whether they should check it out of not.

I had a psychology teacher who suggested that we go into the men's bathroom when there's only one person using a urinal, go up and start using the one directly next to them, and strike up a random conversation.

He also suggested going into an elevator with at least one other person and stand facing the other people in there, preferably while intently staring them down.

I've never tried either of them (and especially not the first one, seeing as how I'm a woman and walking into a men's bathroom would freak guys out enough!), but I like the idea of testing mores and messing with people's sense of "personal space".

So far, I really like your teacher Where does he/she teach?

He, as far as I know, still teaches at a community college in Colorado. I've had good luck with finding the bat shit crazy psychology teachers.

I completely forgot to mention this prank in my earlier post (though people here have suggested ones exactly like this). Smear ketchup all over your face/body, find a fairly busy street, then lie down next to the road when no one's looking and play dead. My dad's brother apparantly did this when he was young and freaked a bunch of people out... as in, people were slamming on their breaks and screaming when they got out of their cars and couldn't find the "body".
