….in an office in which you do not even work at.
Required Materials:
12 Cans of silly string
12 Scotch water-resistant packages
15 Post-It notes (in case you mess up 3 times)
1 Sharpie
1 Clipboard
…..I can’t remember what else.
Step 1
Pick an office in which you already magically know the names of several employees……
Step 2
Purchase yourself some quality silly string and packages…..
Step 3
Whip out your post-it notes and write something cleverly relevant and attach to each can of silly string (“Do it! You know you want to”)…..
Step 4
Write out the names and address on all packages (If you mess up here, come up with a way to fix it with your wit and brawn). Next come up with a clever return address that won’t make you look suspicious (this is key, people).
Step 5
Print off a signature sheet. Make sure it looks official! (or you may not fool the receptionist) Find your most UPS’y outfit and put it on. Look as official as possible. I can not stress this enough!
Step 6
Gather up all your packages to deliver. Sign a few names on your signature sheet, so it looks like you had other deliveries…..Official! Deliver the packages, and make sure to get the receptionist to sign off on your official clipboard. (When asked where these packages are from when you’re about to leave, hurry and blurt out the first company that comes to your mind (perfect example: Spring At&t )

genius. pure genius. I totally thought you were my UPS carrier when I saw that picture. My bro works at “grape”soda so this was even more entertaining for me.

Listen smartmouth, I almost had a heart attack. I was targeted! It was anonymous, it had no postage. So mysterious. Somehow though you figured out who all the cool people were at OrangeSoda. Then I knew there had to be something behind this.
You’re hilarious.

I could totally pull this off where I work. Thanks for inspiring me. I just might have to do it. AND you make a pretty sexy unibomber if I do say so myself.
You smoothie. You really did have Janet freaked out. She thought she this whole silly string thing was just a small part in a giant evil scheme to take over the world… or at least the office.
I gave my can to Finken so I wouldn’t be tempted to misuse it.
That was a pr-status prank though. Nicely done.

I wish I still lived in Denver….I know several places I would deliver these and then probably end up on the news.
You’re so so lucky that someone didn’t, namely the receptionist, call the police cause you DO look like the uni bomber in that picture.lol
Pure evil, gotta love it. Specially since its someone else’s office. Wahahaha
If I weren’t terrified of being tackled by an overzealous security man, I’d be all about it. Of course, I happen to be that one person who always ends up double checked at airport security, which means I’d totally end up being “that mommy turned attempted terrorist” on the news.
TOOO Funny!
