There's nothing worse than spending a long day in the office playing solitaire. Cure yourself from humdrum cubicle boredom by faking a stapler wound that will freak out your co-workers.
You Will Need:
A stapler
2 Large medicine capsules (preferably not life-saving medication)
Fake Blood/Karo syrup mixed with red food coloring
A metal file
A healthy scream
Instructions:
1. Empty out the medicine capsules and fill them with fake blood.
2. Remove the staples from the stapler.
3. Lift up the staples part in the stapler so that it opens up to another level.
4. File and sharpen the front latch piece that pushes out the staples.
5. Place the blood capsules into the part of the stapler where you normally put staples.
6. Stand in a place where all your co-workers can see you and start stapling.
7. Scream bloody murder when you "staple" you finger and blood goes everywhere.
Imagine everyone's delight and horror when they see all the blood and think your finger got stuck in the stapler. For added fun and an added bloodbath, try testing the prank out on an electric stapler.
Since a ton of people come to ZUG looking for prank ideas, we're trying a new series of "How To" articles, using little-known videos that we think are particularly clever or funny.
Please give the series a chance and let us know what you think!
Well, you are right about stapling yourself at least. It doesn't really bleed much to speak of and it doesn't hurt at all until you start pulling it out slowly, and then not much.
The first time I did it, I was young and didn't even realize I had done it until my fingertip felt somehow different when I touched things, but the second time did hurt a little as I'm pretty sure it was touching the bone in my thumb.
