This joke started as a way to help my wife forget about her high stress job and to relax at home. When she was working (before the kids were born) she set up the automatic timer for the coffee machine so it would be made when she got up. Some nights after she went to bed, I would remove the paper filter. By doing this she would have coffee grounds in her coffee as there was nothing to filter said grounds. Some nights she would get up 3 or 4 times while watching TV and check to make sure she used a filter. I made sure that I didn't remove the filter more than 3 times in a 2 week period. This just made her believe that she was losing it.

This went on for close to two years and she always believed that she just forgot to use a paper filter and she never did catch on to my joking ways that I know of. Well after catching her 3 days in a row, she decided enough was enough. I came home from work one day and there is a new,fancy,expensive coffee machine on the counter. She was so proud of herself to find a new machine that had a basket instead of a paper filter and this machine would not work if the basket was not in its proper place. She solved her problem with my credit card to the tune of over 250 dollars and that was 17 years ago. The first few nights she still checked the filter set up and I had a few more laughs at her expense. But for the last 17 years I have been looking over my shoulder for her revenge as our friends that I told about this missing filter joke are 1 day going to spill the beans on me. Maybe the joke was really on me from me.........

Where i used to work, there was a canadian guy who was a bit of a bellend, and used to be the brunt of our jokes, he used to get mackerel and sardines stashed in his around his workshop and four post ramp etc.

also when he used to go and sit on the throne in breaktime (very small cubicles) we used to throw loads of sawdust under the door and get the airline out at full force and give him a sandstorm whilst on the stter.

Very very amusing

Borrow a shotgun from a friend who goes shooting, and knock up a wooden rack to hold it. Then get some wire and a good heavy weight and rig it up to the front door, so when it opens, the gun goes off in their face. Hilarious, although can be quite messy, you might want to put some plastic sheets down first.

A nonsensical self defeating eco system of sorts, is my guess.

Or for the back-door Rapunzel wannabe's, a Genuine BMW approved German bumhair ponytail dangley rear view mirror accessory.

My money is on an eco widget.

I doubt they'd poke any fun at any "green" ideas in this day and age, as it'll make it look like they are trivialising global warming.

Although a permanently on Aircon system that blows cold air outside to cool the atmosphere would upset the right people wink

It's too expensive to fit one to every car, what is needed is a global solution, like a big hole in the atmosphere on the top of the planet to let all the hot air out.

The old ones are the best. The post-it note on your colleague's desk asking him to phone Mr. C Lyon at the above number rarely fails despite being apparently obvious. Zoos up and down the country have their switchboards jammed every April 1st.
