Practical Joke
-
A colleague of ours is not at work today and he's got a mostly empty creamer container. Being the jack@$$ that I am :-D I'm obviously going to substitute the contents of the container. Suggestions so far: flour & salt (flour won't dissolve though) Powdered Ginger Ground White Pepper Ground sugar. Any suggestions?

Try a mix of powdered milk and food grade citric acid granules... Instant cheese if his coffee is hot enough and you get the right balance between the two ingredients. Roswell

Grow up? Practical jokes and food do not mix: if your colleague has an allergy to whatever you substitute...

Killjoy ;) Seriously though, if you feed him peanuts he could have a nut allergy, not forgetting the retribution that mau follow.

Nah, definitly not feeding him nuts, though I know for a fact that he has no allergies. This guy is the human waste disposal unit. He'll eat (drink) anything. I've seen him scarf down figs and hamburgers in the same mouthful.

Creamer is like carob. Carob may look like chocolate, but it tastes gross. If it was marketted in it's own right, no-one would buy it.

Heh heh...as bad as it may taste when used in a manner consistent with the labeling, it's not half as bad eaten straight out of the box, especially the kind with fancy flavouring...as long as you don't accidentally inhale it while eating Roswell

I dunno. You can't get much worse than creamer anyway. Anything else would be a bonus. Bob: Mustafa, thanks for substituting my creamer with anthrax spores. I never realised how awful creamer was until I tasted the bliss that was anthrax. *cough* Got a mild cough coming on *cough* Must have been all those years of creamer *hack* *cough* *cough*, thanks again. (If you must persist then how about baking soda?)

I understand that and I have no problem with practical jokes at all, other than when you could hurt someone without meaning to because, whatever you might say, you do not have access to his medical records or he may have an allergy he has chosen not to share.

That's my number 1 choice at the moment, another coworker prefers the powdered ginseng. We'll probably end up with a combination of both.

If you could get a bit of vinegar in such that it spills when he uses it... that would be great. Vinegar + baking soda = woosh! And wouldn't ginseng just make him think his coffee had extra kick today?
