In the winter it'll make your house darker to heat it up and in the summer it'll might your house's color light to help cool it down. For the best effect your house would have to go from black to white, but I don't know many people that would like their house to be black... Kind of gloomy."

...find a home painted in this stuff, and write obscene things on it with a low power laser, water pistol, etc.

...take a pic of same house on a normal summer day, go to paint store, get custom paint, come back and grafitti house liberally. Invisible today, pretty dramatic when winter comes around.

...get a stepladder, press butt or other anatomy against middle of front door, ring bell, run.
