An extra sock in the dryer on occasion.

Lift toilet seats in homes where no males live.

Wear a sheet and go “boo!” Then when they pull the sheet off, I go full Beetlejuice.

I’d go to billionaires and politicians, and give them panic dreams about burning in hell, haunt them during the day,band convince them that there is indeed an afterlife, and they are going to be tortured for eternity if they do not work to fundamentally restructure society to the benefit of the worker.

I’d also convince them that they have to publicly execute certain individuals

Screw all of humanity. Fake nuclear bomb/missile launches on radar in order to jumpstart the next age of humanity.

I won’t be alive to deal with the consequences if someone does accidentally end up firing nukes because of my ghost, so why not make humanity suffer for my amusement?

Press the Insert key on people’s keyboards at random times of the day.

I don’t. Pranks are done by bullies.

I work in I.T. so I’d pull technology pranks.

• Cause a lag spike when you’re about to frag someone
• Make your download fail 90% of the way through
• Move your files from one place to another so you can’t find them
• Make your phone battery run out of charge before noon

And little stuff like

• Make nothing happen when you click the first time
• Make the window scroll slightly past the spot you want to go to
• Bring a different window into focus right as you’re about to type something

Turn the digital clocks upside down. Did this accidentally to myself once and when I saw it at night I thought for a moment the universe had disintegrated. Startled pretty bad.

Also: mosquito sounds.

I’m the one who’s been talking to your cats and other pets when they get that thousand yard stare at that one spot on the wall.

I’m just gonna go into the light and let you guys deal with it.

Ultimate prank, letting everyone else clean up their own messes.

I’d cook people flavorful meals, packaged up and ready to grab in the morning. Maybe they’d come home to a dinner spread after a rough day. And then I would infiltrate banking systems and regularly but stochastically credit poor people’s accounts with amounts below the revenue departments structuring threshold.

Finally, I’d find people with test anxiety and coach them through the problems.

I’d start appearing at various churches dressed as Jesus talking about “Wait till my father gets done with his latest project and has time to deal with y’all again” to see how many of them say “You mean it’s actually real?”

Crack open the medicine cabinet every morning.

Every time someone turns the kettle on I wait ‘til their back is turned and switch it off again.
