SPOON SURPRISE Get as many spoons from your kitchen as possible, and hide them in your victim’s bed. Put the spoons down near where their feet usually are. They’ll get a wikkid shock when they turn in for the night! Just make sure the spoons are clean first. CLICK BAIT Sometimes the best pranks take the littlest of effort. Slightly pull out the mouse and keyboard plugs from your victim’s PC. Don’t pull them all the way out, because they’ll figure out the prank straight away. Just pull them out enough so that they no longer work. PUSH IT REAL GOOD This is an oldie but a goldie. Make a very official looking “PUSH” sign and stick it on a pull open door.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Gameplay: This massive RPG mixes together some of gaming’s coolest RPG franchises, and should appeal to teenage YAKs out there who want a challenge!
