My theatre class is doing this KICK ASS project where we go and trick people and film it, like Punk'd or Candid Camera. It's pretty neat. My only problem: I don't have any good tricking ideas. So far my people are going to speak French frantically at people and pretend not to know English, have people "test our new drink on camera" which is really like soda with salt in it, and convince a business to let us jump out at people and scream "You're the one millionth customer!!!"
But... those ideas suck. Any good ones? It has something that targets one person at a time, nothing too general, and it can't be anything too bad.
Also, sound track ideas? Something people will recognize/like, but not so mainstream that is was on the radio yesterday.
Like when they say, " May I take your order?" You say, "Why, may I take yours?"
And if they make you wait, then you make them wait.
Here's more:
1. Drive through the drive-thru in reverse and let your passenger order.
2. Ask the price of almost everything on the menu and then order something that you didn't ask the price for.
3. Tell the employee that your window is broken. Order and then pay with your door open. When the food comes, roll down the window and snatch your order from their hands.
4. Go to McDonald's and demand a big breakfast at 11:30 at night. Put up a fight.
5. Pay for a large order in pennies.
6. Drive in circles around the drive through, ording just one item of your order each time you pass the window. For added fun, change clothes, hairstyles, glasses and fake beards with each pass.
7. When asked if they can take your order, tell them you are just window-shopping and drive on.
8. Leave a big 4 litre bottle of ketchup on your dashboard. When asked if you would like ketchup with your meal, laugh sadistically for a few seconds, then adopt a serious expression and gesture to the bottle on your dashboard.
9. Ask the cashier how they fit into that little box.
10. Drive up to the window. Then, without saying anything, produce a tape-measure. Measure all aspects of the window, make a note of the measurements in a notebook, then drive off.
11. Demand to speak to the manager. When they come out, complain that you did not like the way the employee said, "May I take your order?"
12. When asked if they can take your order say, "No." Then wind up your window and just sit there staring straight ahead.
13. If they ask you to wait, order anyway and keep doing it till they yell at you.
14. Order 10 large milkshakes. When they arrive, get out of your car, open the bonnet and pour 9 of the milkshakes into the oil filler. Place the remaining milkshake onto the pavement, and stare solemnly at it for three or four minutes with your head bowed. Then drive off. Circle the block for 1 minute, then drive back and do it again.
15. When asked to pay for your order produce a huge bucket of pennies. Attempt to hand the heap of change to the cashier, but 'accidentally' drop it all over the pavement. Spend 10-15 minutes picking it all up, then when you have collected it all, pay by credit card.
16. Attempt to barter for your food. Offer CDs, Cassettes or anything else you have in your car (including friends and family members).
17. Don't order when they come on. Just sit there. If a line forms behind you, get out of the car and cause a scene.
18. When they hand you your food, hand them a bag with all the trash from your car in it.
19. Just stare at them when you pay and get your food. Don't break your stare.

pootietang answered Wednesday March 29 2006, 9:43 pm: Umm...well this is really fun to do. You tie a string to a purse, and put the purse on a sidewalk and hide behind a bush. Leave the purse open. Then when you see someone reach down to get it, pull it back! It's HILARIOUS! But kinda retarded..lol! [ pootietang's advice column | Ask pootietang A Question ]
