why would the teacher not suspect you as the one who did it
kinda obv
Nothing great.
I always smile when I think about the time I took a screenshot of the family PC desktop back in the day, then I hid all the icons/taskbar/moved taskbar to the top of the screen and made that image the wallpaper.

>>51697759
well I mean even if I would be underqualified and the teacher I would have thought that it is more likely that you're responsible for it than some russian guys or smth
but anyway, good prank

Thanks senpai.
Maybe the teacher needed to install Gentoo.

Okay, here I go.

>connect it with a long fuse so it can explode later
>go to the electricity manager for that house
>saw the lock off
>right after the firecracker popped, I stopped his electricity
>run away laughing like a little girl
I think I was just pranked:
>'Friend' calls me up
>Is working on some crap for work
>Claims that she can't type in a specific cell of a table, cursor just jumps to the bottom of the page
>Bored anyway, bimble over
>Click in the cell
>Type without issue
>She tries it
>Hits 3 on the number pad
>Realize she has num lock turned off
I want to believe she was just wasting my time for a joke and isn't this fucking stupid.

Little variant I pulled on a friend:
Screenshot desktop.
Rotate it 180 degrees.
Set it as background.
Hide taskbar.
Hide icons.
Rotate everything 180 in screen options.
"why is my mouse moving in the opposite direction? Why can't I click anything?"

I did that to my boss and forgot about it. After the weekend I got back to work to find that he had thrown his computer in the skip and got a new one from the company

I'm sure everyone's done the one where you replace Google chrome with a batch file that opens chrome, waits 2 minutes, and then closes chrome.
