I looked in the search bar and on Google, but could not find a thread like this. I apologize if there is another thread like it, if the mods think it should be merged then please do so.

KEEP THE JOKES & PRACTICAL JOKES CLEAN SO THE THREAD CAN STAY!!

I thought it would be fun to share some jokes & practical jokes with everyone that is car related and some that are just funny.

I will start, even tho they are not that funny...hopefully some other members can share some good ones.

I am sure everyone knows the old gag of "hey something is wrong with your car" the person says "what"? then you say "your muffler bearing is bad and needs to be replaced", or "your blinker fluid is low you should get that checked out".

Of course I am guilty of doing this in my younger years to people that didn't know any better to get a laugh. I thought it was even funnier as I got older and teenage kids would try to do the same to me but of course I would just look at them with a grin and say "nice try, come up with something new"!!

Well, working in IT I occasionally have to come up with a reason why something went wrong. I let the customer know I'm joking about this, but this is as good a reason as any...then take them to the following page. Just refresh if the answer doesn't fit.

So when I went to the dealership with my family to supposedly get a nav DVD for my dads vette....a 1990's P.O.S. Hyundai sedan is In the delivery zone and is told this 300,xxx mile beauty with autozone chrome rims is mine :(

Your parents bought you a car. You shouldn't have cared what make or model it was. It's free.

Here we go yet, again... I was being sarcastic dude. You have no idea what I contribute to help pay for my car. It's a privilege to drive and I know that geez

so how about we (you) not violate the op's rules and stay on topic?

Another IT prank. Press print screen to take a shot of the users desktop. Paste that into paint and save it. Set that pic as the users desktop background, then right click on the desktop and hide their icons.

And to take this a little further, you can take that image and rotate it 180°. Be sure to hide the windows taskbar.

Then rotate the screen 180° so the background looks right-side up.

Be sure to flip his mouse icons so the pointer still looks right, but it moves right when he moves the mouse left, and it moves up when he moves the mouse down

One day at work I decided to mess with an employee. While he went to the restroom I popped off several buttons on his key board and switched them around. About 15 minutes Later I get a call from him saying his keyboard is not working properly. Of course I insisted that it was just him and his keyboard was fine. It made for a good laugh, he was very aggravated since he was typing the right keys but getting the wrong letters. Of course I've eventually let him in on the secret and fixed his keyboard for him.

oh you got me

trust me you'll get it sooner or later

Anyways, one guy at my school is a pretty big prankster and one day he decided to fall asleep with his keys on his desk (he drives a 2011 mustang) so we decided to change the language of his DIC menu

needless to say we all got a very amusing text from him shortly after we all left school

I'm on a plane trip and a few seats up a wife and hubby are fighting.she yells well if you can't make me feal like a woman then ill find a man that can. So she stands up and yells is there any man here that can make me feel like a woman on this plane. I stand up and take off my shirt and throw it at her and say. Iron that!

I have done this to several friends for birthdays and Christmas.

Buy a small but very cool present, get the biggest box you can along with several other boxes in gradually smaller sizes.

I had 10 boxes in all for one friend. I put tons of tape on everything. Took him at least 15 minutes to get through all of the boxes before he finally got to the last one....completely wrapped in tape, about a 1/4 inch thick. He just kept looking at me like you mother!@#$%#. In the end he did like his present but damn did he have to work for it!
