Some of my favorite Jim and Dwight pranks that could possibly be done with ease.

The U.S adaptation of "The Office" (2005-2013) has become a new obsession and a popular fandom in today's entertainment by may teens and young adults. Although the show had its finale in 2013, for the past few years, "The Office" has made its mark once again. But do you know why this show is so loveable?

The characters. The relationships. The comedy. But most importantly, THE PRANKS.

If you are an Office fan, you know Jim Halpert is the ultimate prankster and Dwight Schrute is the best person to prank. The amount of pranks Jim pulls on Dwight is hilarious and sometimes absolutely ridiculous, but how many of these can actually be pulled off by regular people? Keep reading to get some inspo on your next project on you "Dwight"

*WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS*

Did Dwight do it?

In this episode, Dwight found a small amount of marijuana on the premises of the Dunder Mifflin, which leads Dwight to take on his civil duty to identify the culprit. When called in, Jim immediately begins toying with Dwight's mind, making him believe that it maybe he was the one who took the drug. Find your most gullible friend and try reverse psychology on them. Imagine how funny that'll be.

Bill Buttlicker

In "Customer Survey" (episode 507), Jim and Dwight are surprised when they receive bad reviews on the annual customer survey. In order to help Dwight with his people skills, Jim and Michael set up a mock phone sale with Dwight as the Salesman and Jim as the customer.

Things get rowdy when Jim takes the new level to test Dwight, naming his character Bill Buttlicker. Testing has patience and sanity, Jim continues to drag on Bill Buttlicker's personality. Try prank calling you best friend as a paper salesman!

Jell-o Stapler

Giphy

Pilots are always interesting and this one was no exception. From the first episode, we knew Jim and Dwight were going to be highlights in this show. Beginning the never ending prank marathon, Jim places Dwight's stapler in jell-o, allowing Michael and Ryan to make jokes and puns at the jiggly stapler. Putting something not too valuable in a jell-o will surely be a highlight of your day.

Faxes to future Dwight

Giphy

Technically, in order for this prank to work, you would need an extremely gullible friend in order for this to work. "Branch Closing" shows Jim at the Stanford Branch of Dunder-Mifflin, but because of his close ties to the Scranton Branch, he is able to access Dwight's personal stationary. With this, he send multiple faxes from "Future Dwight" In particular scene, he tells Dwight that the coffee is poisened, making Dwight bumbard Stanley. If you can send someone fake future mail, you're probably the best prankster.

The Impersonation

Giphy

If you are an office fan, you know "Beers. Beets. Battlestar Galactica." is a staple quote in the fandom. In this episode, "Product Recall", Jim walks into the office dressed as Dwight. He puts on a fake pair of glasses and asks Dwight, what kind of bear is the best.

When Dwight finally realizes what Jim is doing he becomes very bothered, starting that identity theft is a serious issue. Then proceeding to call his backup, Michael. I believe if you dress up and imitate one of your friends of the family, you'll definitely get a kick out of it... but they probably won't.

The Pavlov Experiement

From the moment I saw this prank, I knew for a fact I have to do this to someone, maybe not with Altoids specifically but the whole concept of the prank nonetheless. This is by far, one of my favorite because of how simple yet elaborate it is, making it even funnier. In this episode "Phyliss's Wedding", Jim reboots his computer, making it chime, then offering Dwight a mint.

Continuing this, Dwight become trained to think that after chime a mint follows. When the computer chimes and Jim doesn't offer an Altoid, Dwight becomes confused and his mouth waters because he wants the mint to follow. Try doing to Pavlov experiment to someone with their favorite candy and the ringer on your phone.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation.

Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
