I know that CP is usually great for advice…so for the first time here I am asking.

My friends and I are usually good for a solid session of ripping on one another. It’s constant, really, but nobody takes it too personally and we all genuinely care for each other's company and well being. But friendly banter is where it should end, IMO. Well two of my best friends who come over to my apartment a lot think it’s funny to **** with me. Basically, they like getting a reaction out of me. Usually it’s something lame, but they still get under my skin because I hate pranks. I don’t do pranks and they really piss me off. I don’t like chairs pulled from underneath me and I don’t like my room to be ****ed with. Somehow my reaction to pranks must be really funny because they **** with my room a lot. From hiding my laptop to moving furniture they’ve usually managed to piss me off without really going over the line. I let them know that they are disrespecting me, but I usually just leave it alone and they certainly don’t take me seriously. I’ve never wanted to blow things out of proportion. However, now I think they’ve crossed the line. I got word from my roommate today that my room has been painted pink and that there are stickers of dolphins ****ing placed all over my walls. I’ve been visiting my parents for the last week and I know that these two guys are involved and possibly one of my other roommates. It’s worthless to lock my room because a simple library card will get you in. These guys won’t buy beer unless it’s a 6-pack for themselves and consistently drink everyone else’s beer but they go out and buy paint to do this….it’s unreal to me. Really these are the cheapest bastards alive so I know they painted my room with the lowest quality available. If I’m going to have a pink room I’d at least like to enjoy a solid paint job. My first reaction was to get serious with them and let them know how pissed I am. I’m to the point where I would have no problems getting physical if they had a serious case of smart mouth. However, I think that may be an overreaction. I also don’t want to engage in a prank war because I will inevitably lose because I don’t exactly thrive on that type of shit. I was thinking maybe of going up early without them knowing and repainting the room on my own dollar and just ignoring them--- pretending it never happened. While Im sure this would infuriate them, Im not so sure they would stop pranking until I boiled over. Overall, how do I deal with this situation? I feel like I have been disrespected but maybe I’m just being an oversensitive, thin-skinned pussy. Is this a harmless joke that I should just roll with? I’m pretty positive that they will paint my room back without much trouble…but who knows. You can’t say get new friends because I’ve only got a handful of good ones and they also happen to be friends with my roommates.

I'm not sure if I have some settings off or what.

Go to your control panel, click on "edit options", scroll down to misc options and make sure your using the enhanced editor.

As a veteran of several prank wars, I think you are in a very favorable position here. While their prank was pretty funny, its not like they messed up ur sh*t too bad. At the same time, re-painting someone's walls is serious enough that you have considerable leeway in responding.

Assuming you don't share a bathroom with these characters, I would suggest ex-laxing one of them, and covering the toilet seat with saran wrap. The key to this prank is not wrapping the toilet too early. If you time this up right, the dude will **** up his bathroom and his pants worse than anything you could ever do.

Another suggestion would be to take the tires off their cars, put them up on blocks, and leave a treasure map for them to go on a scavenger hunt for their tires.

Kill their parents. I doubt they'll be ****ing with you after that.

Yeah, I know, it's a little harsh, but they didn't really leave you much choice once they used the dolphin stickers.

Incidentally.....is there any better place to go for advice than CP?

What else are we supposed to come here for?

stlchiefs · 05-23-2009, 07:07 PM

Piss on their pillows the next time you're at there place. Nobody but you has to know the revenge you've taken out on them.

Nightfyre · 05-23-2009, 07:15 PM

Cut their tire stems. What a pain in the ass that is to fix. They have to put in new stems but you've really only caused like $5 worth of damage. The time and inconvenience factor is ****ing huge though.

If CP had existed 50 years ago, no would have ever heard of Dear Abby.

I have a question.

Where exactly do you purchase stickers of dolphins ****ing?

Just wondering. Those might come in handy.
