"I did this one last year. I work at a restaurant. We have these spray bottles with a light pink solution we use to clean tables and such. I went and grabbed a brand new one and filled it with watered down pink lemonade.
I would be cleaning near my co workers , while chatting with them and nonchalantly unscrew the top spray/ trigger piece and just started downing it like I was dying of thirst.
The look of horror on some of their faces was priceless."

For a few days leading up to the 1st, she was talking about how her and mommy were going to bake me brownies. Totally hyped it up.
I should have seen it coming, but on April Fool's Day, she brings me a plate with a bunch of brown construction paper cut out letter E's.
She made me brown E's."

"If they use Google Chrome, install the extension "nCage It". It changes EVERY image (including google logo, thumbnails, etc.) into randomly generated pics/gifs of Nicholas Cage.
The best part? There is an option to hide the extension from the task bar. They would actually have to go into their internet options and find it under the "extensions" tab just to turn it off. It's great."
"Piece of opaque tape over the lazer on everyones mouse. IT was pretty angry, I need to take that one to the grave with me."

Our kids were not impressed in the slightest. Not sure they even noticed.... Next year, we made them cereal and milk with a spoon in the bowl and put it in the freezer overnight. When we gave them breakfast, one burst into tears and the other threw it on the floor. Our kids can't hang :("

Protip: don't forget you did it the night before: I get myself every year as well."
"Take screenshot of desktop.
Remove all icons on desktop.
Close all applications.
Set taskbar to "auto-hide".
Set screenshot as wallpaper.
Result: computer looks just as they left it, but when they try to do anything, it doesn't work."
"Move every piece of furniture 2 inches to the right. Subtle but sweet."

We did this to a co-worker. Every day, 1:15, his computer would start to play Nickleback. 3:45, Taylor Swift."
"Put a picture of Slash from Guns n Roses on a coworker's tires and tell them you slashed their tires"

"Paint all the bars of soap with clear nail polish."
"Replace their Purell with Lube. Watch them rub their hands together forever. The lube washes off harmlessly, the shame never will."
"Take off the lid to the shower drain. Shove in a plastic bag with some chocolate milk powder mix in it. Secure the bag with the drain cover and cut off any excess bits of plastic. Wait for sounds of disgust as brown water starts coming up from the drain while they're showering."
watch the guy that has the job of setting them forward wonder why the clock are still wrong after he went around the office
