This is totally gross, which is why my teens would get a kick out of this. I’m definitely making these and some extras for them to share with friends.

Don’t know where this image came from, but since my kids live on their phones, I know they would get a kick out of rubber bands all over their phones. Of course, you could also rubberband remotes, computer mouses, or anything else that gets used often.

My son, who is in college, sometimes streams some of his game play and one of his viewers sent him this prank because he accidentally showed his address (pls. be careful folks). Anyway, it’s from smellmythongs.com and literally looks like you bought used undies! There isn’t really an underwear in these, but can you image what the mail person or roommate(s) would think…lol! It’s just an envelope with a prank card and message from the sender. There’s also a scannable QR code that shows a fake profile of the person who wore the undies…eek!

There are also envelopes for used boxers, dirty diapers, smell my sockz, and more! Of course, these would be geared towards young adults that are out of high school 🙂

  1. I loved these! Some fool taught my kids to pull these kind of pranks! My personal fave was my daughter yelling, ” Mom, Jeremy (the old cat) just threw up all over the rug.” I grabbed a spray cleaner and paper towels and raced over to the spot and the rubber barf just skated across the run when I swiped at it while she roared with laughter. My son got me GOOD when he attached the(Halaloween) plastic severed hand dripping blood to the milk jug in the fridge. I am catatonic before my coffee but I let out a good squeak when I went to get the milk! Daughter’s kindergarten’s teacher screech was heard all over the school when Marianne got her with a hand buzzer. My stepson scared his grandfather with the envelope of “rattlesnake eggs”!; he threw the envelope about 10′! Marianne had a friend whose house was literally cleaned out by burglers; the mom was SO proud of her brand new furniture. Imagine her dismay when she found a fake melting creamsicle on her coffee table and a fake bottle of spilled red nail polish on her hutch! Gotta think of something awful to do to them on Easter!
