    I had one of those, "You kids stay off my lawn!" neighbors growing up. He did have a beautiful lawn though. He spent lots of time taking care of it,
    Then one day the fire trucks and ambulance showed up ant took the man away. He'd suffered a massive heart attack. He survived but he was gone for weeks and weeks.
    As my dad suffered from terrible allergies it was my job to mow the grass every week. Once the man was no longer caring for his lawn it started getting over grown.
    I'd watch every day as his wife came out first thing in the morning and drive away not returning until well after dark. I assumed (correctly) she was going to see her husband.
    As his grass started to become over grown I decided on my own that I should walk over and mow it. I just started doing this every Saturday. He had automatic sprinklers so I didn't need to worry about watering the grass.
    After nearly the entire summer I mowed and trimmed his lawn. I tried trimming his bushes but I realized I was doing more harm than good so I quit before I did too much damage.
    I found out later that on the day he was let out of the hospital he was dreading what his lawn was going to look like. He'd asked his wife but she said she had not once thought of the condition of the yard. Frankly, I think if I'd replaced her car with my mother's car, I doubt she would have noticed. If the keys were in it she would have just driven my mom's car to the hospital. She had more important things on her mind.
    He was really surprised to kind his grass freshly cut and very well maintained. The bushes needed work, but that was all.
    He called me on the phone (I didn't know he knew my name) and asked if I had been cutting his grass, but his town was gruff an unfriendly. Afraid I'd be in trouble if I admitted to trespassing, but the neighbors ratted me out. The next day his wife knocked on my door with a huge plate of some really amazing lemon bars.
    She told me not to worry about her husband. He liked to pretend to be crotchety and unfriendly, but he had been deeply touched that I had taken over his yard care when he could not.
    I ended up mowing his grass every week from then on, and formed a friendship of sorts with him.
    He said I was okay but all my friends were a bunch of hooligans. I had to look that word up!
    He lived a few more years, then his wife passed away, and he followed her a week later.
    I was surprised to get the few thousand dollars he'd left for me. I'd always refused his offer of payment. I said it wouldn't be a good deed if I was paid. And the Karma was worth more that the money.

    This is why I prefer pranks that screw with peoples heads rather than doing anything damaging. One time years back someone modified the welcome signs on the edge of city limits. Nothing as blase as making funny curse words. Oh, no. They went so much further. They made a cover that went over a little supplementary sign with the city's logo underneath, changing them to say things like "City of Speed Traps" and "Road Construction City". and my personal favourite, "Welcome to Edmonton, Alberta's Capital City. Suck it Calgary"

    My oldest sister dead ass fell for bonsai kittens. She was absolutely convinced it was a thing and was outraged by it. She was in her 20s, and it didn't occur to her that it could be a hoax until someone asked her how she thought the kittens ate or took a shit or, idk, breathed, if they were sealed in a container. I'm still not totally sure if logic prevailed. It would be the first and only time for her, if it did.

    I work as an ER veterinarian and see high dogs about 2-3 times a week. Dogs love marijuana.
    People freak out because the dog keeps falling over and can’t walk well. They also startle very easily.
    If I ask if there is any way the pet could have gotten into any marijuana there is usually much denial and then a mention that their brother is visiting and smokes or the neighbors smoke all the time. At times a teenager will be sitting right next to Mom or Dad and I will look at them and just know they are the ones that have the weed. It often comes out after I have brought in a 1000 - 2000 dollar estimate for diagnostics and hospitalization since everyone denies vehemently that the dog could not have gotten into marijuana.
    If marijuana exposure is diagnosed then 99% of the time they just take the dog home to monitor. It wears off in 12-24 hours. Very, very rarely they can become comatose and have seizures but they have to consume a lot of marijuana for that to happen.
    And no - I don’t know exact amounts. Just keep your weed locked up and don’t throw roaches on the ground.
    Fun times in the ER!!

      I’ll admit that when my buddy and I used to get stoned during high school, he would close his dogs mouth and exhale into the dog’s nostrils. Then it would try to jump onto the bed and always smacked it’s face. It was hilarious back then, especially because we were stoned. The dog seemed to like it too.

      I don't get why anyone would deny and pay a ridiculous bill, rather than just say yes it is possible. It isn't like the vet will call the police, unless you taped the animal in a dong and tortured it for hours (sadly base on a real case from a few years ago). Animals get into things, the sooner the vet knows the truth the faster your animal gets treated and the more likely the animal not to have lifelong complications or die.
      It's like those people who stick odd objects in their bums, then go to the hospital and say "I am having pain in my rectum" instead of "I stuck a barbie in my butt and can't get it out."

      theory? is that the right word? postulation? I've lost the word darn it, brain damage due to mri/ triggered cardiac arrest /delay in resuscitation due to being In The MRI tube & no defibrillator on site , ( btw, had a DNR & mentioned this to the techs prior to being placed in the tube, however the techs shift changed during the MRI's start up procedure & the new techs weren't told about the DNR! long story short, was lucky to wake up a months later & had to relearn .... everything, eating, potty, wiping, walking speech telling time showering shoelaces names of things #butIdigress
      SORRY! the shrodingers cat postulates that if you put a cat in a box with radioactive blah blah that effectively the cat was both dead & alive, there's more to the theory but essentially I think that until the supposed bonsai cats were actually seen , eye to eye, so to speak the best answer is that the cat is both in the box & alive & unmodified ( not radioactive or dead or dying) oops I forgot a crucial factor, ok cat, thought up by shrodinger ( who most not have liked cats!) is theoretically placed in a box, with a device containing enough radioactive
      material to end said cat if the device that contains the isotope ( which is randomly cycling through the options of releasing the available radioactive gunk or not doing so , this is where the guy's string of thoughts is whack...
      because he's of the opinion that until you actually open the box to look, the cat isn't even in existence! lol just like bonsai kittens aren't existing either!! GOT-CHA !!!

    So one of my father's friends, way back in the day (I'm older than Simon, and my father was in his mid-20's when I was born) had a mother who worked in the school cafeteria. His family also owned a cascara tree farm. Cascara bark is used to make natural laxatives, often in the form of teas. This kid decided to put a bunch of cascara bark into a bucket of water and just let it steep cold for like a month or so. Then he went to work with his mom, and helped her out in the morning prepping for the lunch before school. He used the water with the mix for the soft-serve ice cream machine, and then headed off to class. Since he and my dad were friends, he warned my dad not to have any ice cream that day. Lunch comes, and most of the students who bought lunches get ice cream after their meals for dessert. So do a lot of staff.
    Soon, people are clogging up the bathrooms. There are lines and students out the doors. They're shitting in the hallways. It's pandemonium.
    They had to close the school down for three days.
    Turns out that when cascara bark sits in water for that long, it's POTENT. The kid hadn't expected the effects to be quite so spectacular. I think this falls into the "pranks gone wrong" theme of this video.

    Editor already put in the info about the name thumb tacks but to answer Simons question about the name drawing pins. The name comes from the origin of the product - being used to pin drawings to walls. Mostly the crappy artwork we used to bring home from school but they also worked for posters.

      At uni they gave you an entire wall in your room that was perfect for pinning posters to, just to make sure you didn't pin it on the other walls that would cause damage.

    To be fair to the trash collector, my best friend's dad was a trashman in LA, and he once had a guy hiding in a plastic bin jump out and make a stab at him. Instead, the kid fell over due to his lunge tipping the entire can over. He tried to stab the dad in the foot. However, they wear steel-toe boots, and all he managed to do was mess up the leather a bit. So he leaped up, brandished the knife, and ordered "Gimme your money." My friend's dad explained that he didn't keep a wallet on him while in uniform, but he could have his watch. The mugger agreed, took the watch, and hightailed it out of there. The dad guessed he must be "new at this" and estimated he was barely a teenager. The best part: it was a watch from Pic-N-Save, $5 brand new, the face was scratched to hell, and the faux leather strap almost worn out. It was totally worthless, which is why he used it for work: if it broke and fell into a trash bin, he could just leave it there rather than try to dig it out.

    Funny you mention about the bins as I used to work as a loader on a bin lorry and I would throw extra bags in whenever I could. You can’t do it all the time though as things are different now, there’s a lot more households for one which means the truck gets full faster which means more trips to the tip and you are only paid up to a certain time of day, no one wants to go over that limit for obvious reasons, this is why the days of taking everything that was left out are gone. There’s also legislation now classing upholstered things like furniture as something called PoPs which stands for Persistent Organic Pollutants, these have to be collected separately as they are charged at different rates, it costs a lot more to tip PoPs than general waste because of this which is why your old office chairs and other furniture doesn’t get taken. If someone at the transfer station was to spot seating in a tipped load then it would be reclassified from general to PoPs, you don’t want that with the 10 tonne load off a bin wagon (or rather the council doesn’t) as that is a far more expensive tip which the tax payer has to cover. That’s why most councils will now charge you to collect stuff like that.

    Second, I have asthma and can’t smoke anything so edibles are the only way I can consume the magic herb. It recently became legal in Ohio and I’ve been enjoying certain gummies.
    Finally, I started work a couple years ago at a local flooring store. We tad a huge batch of sort carpet and vinyl remnants that we decided to give away. I drew cartoon dog heads and taped one to the top of each remnant displayed in our large front window. I then put up a sign saying, “Free to a good home. Adopt one today.” Next day was my day off. Came in the day after that and caught a huge load of teasing and faked indignance about all the trouble I caused. People thought we were adopting out dogs from litters of unwanted puppies !!!!!! The guys fielded complaint after complaint from animal loving citizens who thought we were irresponsible dog owners trying to get rid of a massive number of unwanted dogs! I didn’t live that one down for many months! I repeat that they were cartoon styled line drawings of dog heads and a couple cat heads taped atop short rolls of flooring remnants! Smh!

    The song begins very somber, telling of Hank and how he loved his work at the docks.
    The final verse then reveals that Hank died at work, when a chain above him snapped and caused him to suddenly "overdose" with four and a half metric tons of "good red" and that if weed were legalized, it could be transported by much more safe standards 😏

    One german comedian describes a prank against one of those terrible neighbors, the one that got the makeshift carpet lawn in this one. The funny thing is, in different pieces he describes it from both perspectives, mischievous kids and grumpy neighbor. So, the kids filled a shoebox with dog poop which they collected over a few days, put it in front of the neighbors house, dowsed it in lighter fluid, set it on fire, and rang the doorbell. The neighbor responds, goes outside, tramples and stomps out the flames, then rushes inside to get some water, and after the initial shock went away and the fire was extinguished, he noticed a smell. So yeah, he trampled the shit out of that ferociously burning box and then rushed inside.
    So that prank has layers. Create an immediate emergency that requires an instant response to trick the neighbor into making the mess all by himself. I could see that actually working in the 80s and 90s, not so much after 2001 and later after ring cameras.

    As an addon for the magic brownies story... you *really* need to be careful of who you are giving them to, if you do so without warning people.
    Have a friend that is autistic and was in a pretty bad living situation at home for a long time. She went on a vacation with a friend to their lake house to relax, and a neighbor kid brought over some brownies. She ate way too many of those brownies... and ended up in the hospital after having a really nasty reaction to them and self-harming very badly. None of them had any idea of the reason for the episode, since it was way out of the norm even for what she would normally do, until I suggested they test the brownies and found out what they were made of.
    The kid that gave them the brownies ended up in juvie for 6 months, and his parents saddled with all the medical bills.

    I grew up in tower blocks in one of the most run down parts of the country. A disproportionate amount of criminals would end up there, especially those spent and on their last strike. Their kids had a clean record and were also under the age of prosecution so they would live through them to continue their life of crime. They're also criminals. If they can get someone else to do it for them and take the risk they will. They would teach them and have them commit crimes that they would otherwise commit.
    One kid was taught to burgle. He would scale the tower blocks to access flats from the balcony. An old man got fed up with this. Even if you locked your doors it meant you couldn't leave anything on the balcony. He rubbed butter all over the railings.
    The kid slipped and fell from over a dozen stories. When we came across the body we were not all that disturbed. We pranced around pointing saying it's humpy dumpty it's humpty dumpty.

      Shocking for whom? The public or the criminal? I knew a pillbilly in high school who stole a stop sign from the intersection of a 55mph country road that got moderate traffic in the morning and between 1630-1830. No fatalities, but a hella close call. This was before the age of cell service. One driver waited at the intersection to warn other drivers, while the other called the police. The jaggoff that yoinked the sign, as one would expect of such a high quality personage, bragged like the 45th president of the USA at school. The son of a sheriff's deputy heard loud and clear and told his ol'man. Normally, I'm a snitches/stitches guy, but I recall most of us agreed he was right to narc. The kid got 2 years in juvie and never returned to school. Jerk.
