8 April Fool's Pranks That Will Make Your Roommate Wish They Had Committed To Their Other School

In This Article:

With April Fools day creeping ever so quickly closer, it is time to start planning all of the maniacal tricks and traps you are going to set up for your friends (or enemies). If you don't want to go too big with your evil plots but still want to infuse some light-hearted fun into the day, here are some great pranks that will get you and your victims laughing.

1. Minty fresh treats

If you want to not so subtly let your friends know that they need to do a little better brushing their teeth in the morning, try filling some Oreos with plain, white cream toothpaste and offer them up as some snacks.

Nothing says I love you like mint and chocolate!

2. A pop of color in their smile

Is your roommate's smile just too perfect? Do they always wear monochromatic outfits and just look too fashion forward? Pop some food dye onto the bristles of their toothbrush to give a hint of color to their day's 'fit.

3. Spiders!

Want to give your co-worker a spook? Print out a colored photo of a gnarly looking spider and carefully place it in your friend's favorite coffee mug or pair of shoes for a bit of a shock.

4. Ticking time bomb

Giphy

Do you know someone who just loves an ice cold glass of soda? Prep your ice tray with mentos in each cube. Let them freeze overnight. On the big day, surprise your friend with a nice glass of pop with ice and wait for the magic to begin.

5. Chicken soup for the body

Beware community bathroom users! Make your unsuspecting neighbors feel like they are taking a shower in their favorite comfort food by unscrewing the head of your shower faucet and leaving a chicken bouillon cube inside. When your victim goes to take a shower, they'll begin wondering who's making chicken soup only to realize… it's them!

6. Don't be a weenie

Looking for something that will leave your friends simply asking, "Why?" Tie a clear string to your favorite food, such as hot dogs or to potatoes and hang them from the ceiling, giving them a floating effect. The sheer level of ridiculousness of this prank would make anyone laugh.

7. Someone is watching!

For a simple and silly trick, put googly eyes on everything! Your clock, your fridge, your lamp, anything you can think of!

8. Cage them in

Bella Koscal

Print out a mildly absurd amount of photos of Nicholas Cage and tape them all over your victim's room, door, car, etc. They are caged in!

And yes, I really did do this to my friend's car.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
