The best and worst part about having siblings is the practical jokes. Or, to put it another way, the best thing about having siblings is getting revenge! Judging from the blurred picture above, can you guess what sort of fun an older brother had at his younger sibling’s expense?
Tweeted by Japanese Twitter user Shizufoy, the above picture is of a computer mouse encased in gelatin. Perhaps not the most unique practical joke ever, but certainly one of my favorites. It seems that Shizufoy’s oldest son committed this act of brotherly aggression against his younger sibling who’d not yet returned home when the photo was originally uploaded. However, Shizufoy followed up a few hours later tweeting that his youngest son splashed a bucket of water across his oldest son’s face, adding, “So he didn’t seem that mad about it.”
I’m not exactly sure what kind of family Shizufoy is trying to raise…but I’d say it’s a success so far!
▼ Looks like Bill Cosby approves too.
And now, I can’t wait for April Fool’s Day. It’s still pretty far away, but that just gives me plenty of time to plan! I bet my boss would love a new protective gelatinous cover for his computer.
