They’re bored, Mike. Many college students don’t have cars, are low on funds, stuck on campus dorms…they gotta vent and find fun where they could…at others’ expenses. Been there. And drinking also factor into it. Beer frees them to behave immaturely.
Fake blood in clothes dryers! A lot of fake blood has dyes in it which are difficult to remove from clothing. That would be difficult to get out of a clothes dryer.
Gluing a fridge shut is not much better. If you break the seal on the fridge trying to open it, then you have to replace the refrigerator door seal.
I never was much one for practical jokes. Perhaps that’s why I never “got” the Three Stooges humor of poking someone’s eyes, or being slapped upside the head. Laughing at someone else’s induced discomfort is beyond gauche.
I can relate to all of that. My “friends” pulled up a MANHOLE COVER out of the street, carried it up the hill in Syracuse, put it into my bed to see what would happen. Normally I fell into bed; not that night. That would have HURT!!
They had bottle rocket wars when I was in college in the late 70s, I stayed in with the door shut and after they ran out of them the hall was so smoky you could not see. These bottle rockets were much more powerful than the ones out nowadays.

These are not good pranks.

When I was in college, I was always busy. It was either studying for a test, a quiz or writing a paper. I was never the prank type.

Like I said a couple of days ago, I am so glad I didn’t have to deal with dorm life in college.

Anybody remember the last season of LEAVE IT TO BEAVER,where Eddie and Wally hooked a chain onto Lumpy’s rear bumper?

In my day this only happened for the first couple of semesters. After that all the joker party types had flunked out.

Don’t smirk at homeschoolers, nor those who attend parochial schools or the military academies.
Chances are you are going to end up working for an alumnus of one of those institutions.

I remember hearing a prank that went horribly wrong when everyone flushed the toilets while one student was taking a shower.
