Playing dirty tricks is a fine art, depending on your goal. Generally speaking, the goal of a dirty trick is revenge of some sort, so you want to make sure that your target will end up embarassed, inconvenienced, surprised, and generally less happy than before you played your trick. An important part of dirty trickery is not to get caught doing anything illegal, because once you play a dirty trick on someone, he will likely be very glad to turn you in to the police.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Imagination
  1. Step 1

    Consider carefully whether your victim really deserves a dirty trick. Often, you will realize after thinking about it that someone made a small insult or tiny error, and you should simply forgive her rather than playing a dirty trick. Deciding not to play a dirty trick is rarely a bad decision.

  2. Step 2

    Find your victim's weak points. If you are going to play a dirty trick, you will need a method of attack. Generally, this means deciding whether to attack mentally or physically.

  3. Step 3

    Play physical dirty tricks by messing with the other person's stuff. This is a good method to use if you live with the person or are often over at his house.

  4. Step 4

    Target the bathroom. People naked and showering are at their most vulnerable. Unscrew the showerhead, fill it with powdered coffee or drink mix, and then screw it back on. When your victim turns on the water, she'll get a coffee shower. For more lasting damage, put some ink in the shampoo bottle.

  5. Step 5

    Attack mentally if you do not live near your victim, or wish to maintain anonymity. Without doing physical harm to your target, you can still do a lot of serious damage with a dirty trick. Make use of emails, letters, and telephone calls to cause problems for your victim.

  6. Step 6

    Send emails/letters to other people, while pretending to be your victim. You can invite ex-boyfriends over at inconvenient times, or if daring, write an insulting letter to someone you know gets offended easily and is likely to get angry at your victim.

  7. Step 7

    Post flyers around town advertising a big party with free beer at your victim's house. He will be completely swamped with unwanted guests.

Tips & Warnings
  • Don't just use the above suggestions; think about what weak points your victim has and how you can exploit them.
  • Do not do anything illegal! Dirty tricks are frowned upon, should be played at your own risk, and may get you in a lot of trouble.
