SIT DOWN AND BRAINSTORM VICTIMS FOR YOUR PRANKS.
Good pranks to play need to be played on good victims. Victims who not only deserve a prank, but can take what you dish out. Go ahead, start a list. Have fun thinking about all the people you can nail and get to wail.

FIND A PARTNER IN CRIME FOR PRANK PLAYING.
My best pranks have all been done with a partner. You can pull small pranks on your own if you want. But I find it more satisfying to have someone to hit on the back, roll on the floor, and get a laugh ab workout with.

CREATE PRANKS ON YOUR OWN BY USING YOUR OWN BRAIN (THINK IN CATEGORIES):
- Category one - GROSS SURPRISE. The old lifesaver in the shower head, saran wrap under the toilet seat, vaseline on the seat, or even the horrible 'poop in a bag labeled cookies' tricks fit in this category.
- Category two - SHOCKING SURPRISER. A talking animal (using a baby monitor), a taped down sink spray nozzle, a picture of your wacky face in every frame (sorry), talking on your phone with both hands in drivers ed, a box frosted like a cake, or the bucket of water on top of the door all fit in this category.
- Category three - MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT - Gift cards without any cash on them, care packages with nasty surprises (ooooh combined categories with gross surprises), a fake date set up with a horrible date while you sit in the corner laughing your head off are all examples of the major disappointment.

START AN ALL OUT PRANK WAR.
If you want to really get the pranks rolling, and your friends crying with laughter, and your belly shaking with glee start a week long prank war. Get a group of like-minded friends together and suggest a prank war. Make a few rules: no property damage, no humiliation of character, no destruction of reputation, no pranks before or after the boundary dates.
Then find an objective judge to referee the process who will award points and name the victor.
If you want, make a bet on who will win where the winner takes the spoils and the loser lives in shame.
Believe me, you will be telling these stories for years, decades. You will be peeling an orange on the porch in your rocking chair when you are eighty spinning the legendary yarns of how one year, the greatest prank war of all time was staged... and you won.

Tips & Warnings
Be sure to consider adding your own personal twist to any classic prank. Pranks are best when they are a product of your own noodle.
Capture your prank on video and you could make money off of the time of your life.
Don't break the law, damage property, or constantly harass anyone with your pranks.
Avoid playing pranks on people you don't know, or you don't know well.
Don't dish what you can't take. Pranks have a way of boomeranging, that's half the fun. So, be ready to laugh at yourself.
