Christmas prank....pretty funny

Friends, who had a spare key, let themselves in to the Chicago apartment of Louie Saunders while he was away and wrapped everything he owns in gift wrap and bows. The rascal crew managed to wrap everything from his sofa cushions to the contents of his fridge and he will be opening presents for a long long time to come. The prank took 16 people, 35 rolls of wrapping paper and eight hours to finish the job. That's hilarious and would be a really funny thing to do to any Scrooge. Louie sounds like he's taking it in the spirit which it was meant..he jokes that the upside is that, with each package he unwraps, he finds something inside that's just what he needs. It tickled me.

That's hilarious. I got a big laugh out of the gift wrapped guitar stand!

That's better than short sheeting a bed! And I did that recently to someone soooo deserving.....

Several rascals in administration at my son's school did this to one of the counselors. Pictures on the wall, wrapped, everything.
I love it.

It's harmless and funny. Pain in the ass, I'll bet.

Need a bunch of people who enjoy wrapping. That is terrifically funny.

My housemate spent 8 months of 2009 working in Canada and left me in charge of his house, dog and mail. On the day of his return to Colorado I cleaned the house which included fresh sheets for his bed.He really has a good soul but just not a romantic bone in his body. Pat, do you really not know how to short sheet a bed? Ditch the fitted sheet. Use the top sheet and tuck it in around the top of the mattress then fold it up from the bottom of the bed to create the illusion of a properly made bed. Of course you put on top of all that the blanket and bedspread as if all is normal. I'm laughing already remembering the bellowing coming from his bedroom that night when he tried to crawl in bed. You would have to be a midget to sleep in that mess. Of course withe bellowing he was laughing too. He knew it was a "gottcha moment".
