My sister had a roommate who was really messy and never cleaned up after herself. My sister bought a bunch of those small plastic spiders and scattered them all over the roommate's side of the room. When the roommate came back and saw them, she screamed so loud. After that, she started to keep her area clean because she was afraid of more 'pranks'.
There was this guy at work who always stole people's lunches from the fridge. One of the co - workers filled a lunch box with really smelly old fish. The lunch - stealing guy took it and opened it in the break room. The whole place stank, and everyone knew it was his own fault for stealing lunches. He never did it again.
A group of friends went camping and realized they forgot to bring a can opener for their canned food. One of them had an idea. They used a rock and a big spoon. They banged the edge of the can with the rock until it was dented enough, and then used the spoon to pry open the can. It took some time but they managed to get their food open in a rather unconventional way.
I remember a student who plagiarized a history paper. He found an old research paper on the internet and thought he could get away with using it. He didn't change the formatting or the references at all. When the teacher checked for plagiarism, it was so easy to spot. There was also a girl who plagiarized a story for her English class. She took it from a magazine but forgot to change some of the very specific details that were unique to the original story. It was really obvious to the teacher. And a really funny case was a student who tried to plagiarize a math proof. He didn't understand the proof at all but copied it anyway. When the teacher asked him to explain it, he was completely lost.
One story I heard was about a doctor who accidentally left a patient's chart in the waiting room. It had all the patient's personal medical details, and a kid picked it up and started reading it out loud. It was a total HIPAA violation, but also quite a funny situation in a very 'oh no' kind of way.
One funny insurance fraud story is about a man who claimed his car was stolen while he was at a movie. But the theater's security camera showed him driving away with another person after the movie. He thought he could fool the insurance company but got caught red - handed.
Sure. Once, my friend thought he had lost his phone. He searched everywhere in the house. After an hour of frantic searching, he found it in his hand all along. He was so distracted that he didn't realize he was already holding it.
One funny Easter story is about a family who decided to have an Easter egg hunt in their big backyard. They hid hundreds of eggs. But their dog got to the yard first and started digging up the eggs and eating the chocolate ones. By the time the kids started the hunt, half of the eggs were gone and the dog was running around with a chocolate muzzle. It was chaos but also really funny.
One time in the military, a new recruit was so nervous during a drill that he put his helmet on backwards. When the sergeant pointed it out, he tried to turn it around while still wearing it and ended up getting it stuck halfway. Everyone burst out laughing.
Well, there's this story. A divorced woman knew her ex - husband was a huge football fan. So she bought all the tickets to the local football team's home games for the entire season and didn't tell him. He was left with no way to watch his favorite team play live at home stadium. It was a bit of a mean but funny revenge.
In a small village near the Tarrasque's lair, the villagers thought the Tarrasque was just a really big, slow - moving animal. So they tried to domesticate it. They tied a rope around its neck and led it around like a pet. The Tarrasque, being too lazy to fight back at first, just let them. It was quite a sight to see these tiny villagers trying to tame the most fearsome creature in the land. Eventually, the Tarrasque got tired of it and just walked away, breaking the rope easily.
A little boy tried to help his mom bake a cake. But instead of adding sugar, he added salt by mistake. When they tasted the cake, it was so salty that they all made really funny expressions. Later, they all had a good laugh about it as the boy's mistake turned into a funny family story.
