I can't help it, every time I think about it I start laughing. In our library we are constantly prancing one another. (Co-workers, and occasionally patrons too *though not this one*) Our number one prank is probably one of the oldest in the book, but still gets a million laughs.
Only one thing I can say is *evil grin* look before you sit!
Alright, alright, I'll explain... huff... once about two years ago we got all this stuff from the circus that comes to our town once a year. Some clowns came for our summer reading program and left one of those whoopee cushions behind (You know one of those balloon things that makes the fart noise when you sit on it). As it turns out we couldn't stand not using it. So for the first time we tried it with non other then our BIG boss, the Director. Now she's a pretty good natured woman and one day we put it in the chair where she sits at the front desk from time to time, then covered it with her coat.
Naturally she didn't see it and sat down. *FART!* Now there were three patrons at the front desk when this happened. Our Director was blushing beet red and me and the assistants were trying desperately not to laugh in the stacks. The patrons were trying hard to too, but kids were giggling up a storm, some laughing straight out. For days after the director never left the office, and not just that, she found the whoopee cushion! She wanted to know who did it, and believe me this is one of those times you might loose your job kind of angry.
Anyhoo, no one was caught and the supposedly thrown away whoopee cushion lurks in our library, waiting for a poor unsuspecting fool to sit down.
You got to love Librarian-Hood...
