Revenge for the Foil Apartment?
GooseKirk asks: "Just over a year ago, my apartment was completely covered in foil. For some reason, this resulted in global media attention, and ever since, people have been asking me, "what are you doing for revenge?" A few great ideas fell through for various reasons (Ron Jeremy was booked, apparently), and sadly, I currently lack access to an orbital weapons platform, so let me pose this riddle to the great Slashdot collective: if you were going to cook enough popcorn to effectively, and let's say hypothetically, bury a small single-story building, how would you cook it and how would you deliver it, quickly and quietly, say, under cover of darkness? At the least, I think it's an interesting puzzle, and other wacky ideas are certainly welcome... just remember, people, mum's the word, OK?"
Anything involving popcorn is good. When my house full of crazy geek college students got involved in a prank war with another house full of geek college students, I'd have to say the popcorn prank was the best.
Our war started simply enough. They were the pirate house, they even flew pirate flag from their roof. So one night under cover of darkness we went over and stole it. The responsed by breaking into our house and waking us all up by turn our CD player on full blast and looping A pirates life for me.
Now that is annoying to wake up too.
The hacks on our various websites got pretty boring, as did the WEP cracking, so we decided to step it up a notch.
One of my housemates worked at a movie theater, so we had him bring home all the stale popcorn at the end of the night.
We snuck into their house, filled their whole bathroom with popcorn and went home happy.
We woke up to pictures in our e-mail boxes of the enemy playing NAKED in our wall of popcorn.
So my words of advice to you, popcorn is funny, but make sure you're prepared from strange naked popcorn prancing pictures.
Ewwww, the images are still burned into my mind.
