None of that is funny. Practical jokers and pranksters are jerks.

I was at Philco-Ford next door when Widlar did that.

But the one I like best wasn't mentioned. Bob had a distaste for the constant annoying paging from the loudspeakers in his lab... so he took a plumbers helper, put a cherry bomb in it and held it against the ceiling mounted speaker ;-) ...Jim Thompson

Are you getting older mentally than I am in physical age ?>:-}

Lighten up and learn how to laugh!

Or maybe you can't cope with subordinates taking you down a notch or two? I always considered the gags my troops pulled on me "acts of love".

My favorite... they gave me a Christmas gift, a sock with a purse closure :-D ...Jim Thompson

Sounds like you are entering your second childhood.

Go let the air out of your neighbor's tires. They'll get a laugh out of that. Practical joke are, after all, just a type of vandalism.
