Prank Wars: Poison Cookies

The other day, Rebekah and I were eating lunch at her house like we often do, discussing all of the ways we could destroy Caleb with our pranks and mischief.  I showed Rebekah the posts I've written on this blog about our prank wars.  We were laughing and reminiscing until we came across the first post I wrote, here, where I asked you guys for prank ideas. 

"These are great," Rebekah exclaimed, reading through YOUR comments. 

I shook my head.  "I know, right?  We have to use some of these."

We didn't have a whole lot of time, so we decided to use the first prank on the list, by a reader named Jessi.  Here is Jessi's comment:

Last summer, I made snicker doodle cookies with a lot of cayenne peppers in them, me and my friends gave them to the guys at retreat, some of them didn't notice while a few of them hated spicy food.

Thank you so much for your suggestion, Jessi.  We decided to use this prank idea for our next prank against Caleb.

Rebekah will occasionally make no bake cookies and bring them to school.  The cookies are easy to make and delicious, even if they might look a little... unappetizing at times.  If you haven't had one of these cookies before, I highly recommend that you make some.  It takes maybe fifteen minutes and they taste wonderful!

Since Rebekah often brings these cookies to school, we decided to hide the cayenne peppers inside one or two cookies and leave the rest normal.  Unfortunately, we ran out of oats, so Rebekah told me she'd finish making the cookies that night and bring them to school tomorrow.

By the time school started, we both were giddy with excitement.  Rebekah eagerly showed me the cookies at the beginning of school.  "Yes!" I nearly shouted, causing a few baffled stares from our classmates.  No bake cookies are good... but are they good enough for that much of a celebration?  Our plan was in motion. 

Rebekah was sure to take some pictures for me to put on my blog while she made the cookies the night before.  Since you have all taken the time to give us some amazing suggestions, we figured we could let you guys in on the details of our prank war too.  Here are the ingredients Rebekah used to make the cookies.  Notice the cayenne peppers towards the front.

Even better, Rebekah's oblivious brother Josh walked in the room right after Rebekah had finished creating the poisoned cookies.  He asked if he could lick the bowl and after a moment of thought, Rebekah shrugged and said, "Go ahead!"  Might as well test and see how hot the cookies really were.  They were pretty hot.

As soon as third period began, we began to pass out cookies to our classmates.  "Here, I made some no bake cookies," Rebekah said like she so often does.  "Does anyone want some?"  Everyone loves Rebekah's no bake cookies, so immediately she was surrounded by eager classmates... including Caleb.  Eagerly, he accepted the first poisoned cookie, taking a big bite. 

Everyone who knew about our prank watched Caleb intently.  Why wasn't he reacting?  Had we not put enough cayenne peppers into the cookie?  He left the room with a smile, only to burst in about three seconds later, his face red.  "What on earth did you do to this?" he shrieked, searching frantically for a waterbottle and chugging it down as fast as he could.  "I've been poisoned!"

After Caleb had a moment to cool off, Rebekah said, "Here, I'm sorry.  You can have a real cookie now."  And because he may be the most gullible human being on the face of the earth, Caleb took the second cookie and left the room, stuffing the entire thing into his mouth.  As we rolled around laughing in the classroom, our English teacher burst into the room a few moments later, laughing as well.  "What did you do to Caleb?" she asked me and Rebekah.  (If something happens to Caleb, everyone knows who did it.)  "He's practically dying in the hallway right now."

Sure enough, when we hurried to look, Caleb was gasping and chugging more water in the hallways, almost on the floor.  "My mouth... is on fire!" he kept shouting.

And then, because Caleb is insanely gullible, Rebekah said, "Here, do you want a real cookie now?" and Caleb took it and ate it in one bite.  We poisoned his first two cookies and he still ate the third one offered.  So. Gullible.  However, since Rebekah and I are nice people, we gave him an unpoisoned third cookie.

We were victorious again.

Thank you again, Jessi, for your awesome prank idea.  We sure enjoyed this one.  And thanks to all of you guys for offering suggestions in the first place.  We actually plan to use two more of your suggestions within the next two or three weeks, so keep an eye out.

And if you have any more prank ideas, don't hesitate to share in the comment box below. :)

  1. HAHA that was awesome! lol :) Must try that now... :D

    Have you tried the old, bucket of water over the doorway trick? :)

  2. HAHAHAHAHA... such a great prank!!! Congrats on your victory! :)

    One simple prank is the "pop quiz" one. Just start talking about the dreadful pop quiz you had in an earlier period that he hasn't taken yet. Not so much fun as what I've been reading about here, but it sure did work on a guy in my chem class. We took pity on him and told him it was a joke. He was so desperately studying for it!

  3. I have to say that I am honored that you used my prank idea. Reading this was the highlight of my day and really hilarious. :)

  4. That is hilarious! :D Lol, my siblings probably think I'm crazy, sitting here with a big smile and occasionally laughing. ;)

    You should subscribe him to a magazine he'd never want to be caught dead reading. Either that or somehow change the combination to his locker [if your school has lockers, that is :D] and completely refill his locker.

    OH, I just had another idea! Pretend you got an email from him, and go to school one day and avoid him, and whisper about him 'casually' where he can just hear you. Point and stare a lot, but don't make it look cheesy/overdone. Then have you or Rebekah [or another friend of you girls'] go up to him and say, "I just can't believe you would send Emily something like that." [if you'd rather act like it was a Facebook message and not an email if he Facebooks more, then just pretend he messaged you on Facebook.] Have him guessing all day as you both give him pointed stares, and see how he reacts.

    Another idea is to freeze a bottle of shaving cream for a few days, open it from the bottom with a can opener, and put it somewhere [like in his car trunk] where it can thaw for awhile. When it thaws, it'll expand everywhere and it'll be a huge mess. ;] This only works if it has TIME to thaw though! Maybe you could let it thaw for a bit beforehand before putting it in his trunk [or somewhere else he'd hate having to clean up]? Lol :)

    I'm really bad at prank ideas, but I hope those are decent enough! haha :P

    Either way, it's really fun reading all the 'Prank War' posts! I love all of them. ;D
