If any of you have friends that are police officers, I think the ultimate joke would be to have them come to your office and convince office administration that you've done something horrible, and take you out in cuffs. Something that will make coworkers cringe: ex: as you're being walked out, writhing around, scream something like "I only looked at the porn, I never saved it or distributed it!!" That's certain to shock them!

And, the one that I'm hoping to do at my office is this:
We have three microwaves together on one side of the kitchen. It's a frequent "pass through" area to the rest of our lounge - the aisle is probably 4 - 5 feet wide. A sink and low counter are on the side opposite the microwaves.
I've thought about taping down very official looking tape on the ground, forming a rectangle from the microwave counter area extending to within one foot of the counter with the sinks. I'd also put up a super official looking laminated "warning" sign stating that when microwaves are in operation, everyone is to stand behind that line at all times (and include some nonsense about microwave radiation) and state that it's for people's safety, etc.
This would allow for only a foot of space that could be walked through; everyone would have to wait until people moved, and they'd have to shimmy through when the space was open.
It'd make it really tense in there and no doubt strike up a big debate about whether microwaves are really dangerous or not.

Every year I go round to my girlfriend's Dad's house and dig up his whole vegetable garden - he's just planted most of it in early spring - and throw it all over nextdoor's fence. He hasn't got a clue.

Fast-forwarding all your friends' VHS tapes to 5 mins before the end of the tape was a good one.

It's probably true nocomply. It's not so much that I enjoy the act of commiting a prank, I just like when they lead to confusion, head scratching, stress, and people being uncomfortable.
I've been working late, and a lot this week, and when I get exhausted my sense of humor takes a turn for the bizarre.

My best office prank was just a revenge prank not even on April Fools.
My colleague directly opposite would always just yell at me to make the tea for everyone (we got on fine but I was the placement student so I was the bitch of the group).
One day when he went down for a fag break I switched a few keys on his keyboard round (this bit is unremarkable) and I lugged a spare keyboard into the back of his machine with it reachable by my feet.
What ensued was a day of torture for him trying to figure out why at random times his keyboard would hang on certain keys or why he seemed to always be hitting Caps Lock, or why when he locked his machine to go out for a fag (we used to lock to prevent joke all-staffers going out).
Maybe a third of the way through the day in his frustration he noticed the N and M key had been switched and then assumed correctly it was me. He gave me a good yelling for breaking his keyboard and how weak a prank it was.
Luckily for him the office had plenty of keyboards so he proudly 'solved' the problem by getting a new keyboard... I think by the end of the day he'd tried about 10 keyboards when I suggested the reason he might be having some trouble is because I had plugged a 2nd one in the back and had been randomly hitting caps lock/shift/holding down keys at times when I could see he was typing all day.
That was very fun!

So I got a dominoes pizza outfit I'm dressing my grandma in. I'm going to have her come to the office as a delivery woman but pretend she took the stairs.
When she arrives winded I'm going to have her ask the girl at the front desk for a glass of water and tell someone the pizza is here – when she returns I'm going to have grandma lay on the floor and play dead.
That's when I get my boss in on the joke – he'll be completely heartless when he returns from lunch as he steps over the body and tells our secretary to deal with the situation quickly because the client will be here in 5 minutes.
