Dorm Floor Pranks

Ever since the second or third week of the semester, some people on my dorm floor (including myself) have been participating in somewhat of a prank war. It all just started as we got to know each other better and we usually prank each other in friendly spirit, never doing anything to cause physical pain or extensive property damage to someone. It used to be primarily between myself and a friend named Andrew, but others like Devon and Hui have joined in. We all usually get Andrew the most and our pranks towards him are a lot more intense, or worse, than what he can come up with. I think I started the war by putting already rotten bananas in Andrew’s freezer. The bananas stayed in his fridge for five days until he found them and they were completely black (and smelled horrible) when he found them. He got me back by putting toothpaste all over the door handle to my room which was very unpleasant because I was running late for class. As the weeks progressed, we thought of small pranks but the major ones progressively got more intense. Hui has fish oil (for some reason) and he decided to put it all over Andrew’s toothbrush one day. Andrew later found out when he brushed his teeth and almost vomited from the horrible smell. Andrew usually gets Hui back by going into his room and locking him out or by loading inappropriate videos on Hui’s laptop when he isn’t in the room. The final prank that was pulled on Andrew involved Devon and I getting into Andrew’s room (via his roommate) when he wasn’t in there. We got Andrew’s mattress (but left the blankets, pillows, etc. there) and took it all the way down the hall to the garbage room where we hid it behind the door. When Andrew got back from class that day and saw that his mattress was missing he freaked out and got extremely mad. He chased Devon and me around until we were forced to tell him where the matress was. Since then, we have unofficially ended the prank war, although we pull small pranks every once in a while.
