Lights Out

Challenge: What’s the best or worst practical joke that you’ve played on someone or that was played on you?

I don't really play practical jokes or pranks all that much. About the only recent one, was for my boss's birthday last year, I did hit the master light switch (after making sure there were no patients or customers in the shop) and started screaming. She came tearing into the room to find us all singing Happy Birthday by the light of the candles on her cake. I thought she'd been having lunch in the tearoom next door, but it turned out she'd gone to her office which was the other end of the hallway and had nearly sent herself flying in the dark.

It was my birthday a week later and she tried to pull the same stunt in revenge. Needless to say it didn't work a second time round.
