Geek Trick: The Jell-O Keyboard

GeekSugar — Wed, 28 May 2008 02:36:28 PDT

Being let go from your office drone job? Go out with a bang - a jiggly bang - with a peripheral-destroying prank!

Reminiscent of the now-classic stapler-in-Jell-O prank played on both the American and British versions of The Office, this keyboard-and-mouse-in-Jell-O joke is the ultimate in geek revenge. The two hooligans in the gallery detailed their delicious caper in photos, and it looks messy, involved, and hilarious. I would hate to see my precious keyboard and mouse jiggling on Monday morning, but I'd love to see the face of the recipient of this Jell-O joke!

Have You Ever Been Rick Roll'd?

Have you ever opened an email or IM from a friend directing you to an "awesome" or "really funny" site, only to click on the link and find yourself rockin' out to a Rick Astley video on YouTube? You may begin thinking to yourself "This isn't really that funny or awesome," then you begin to wonder what happened to you. Wonder no more, my friend, you've just been "Rick Roll'd."

What is Rick Roll'd? Well, also known as "Rick Rolling" or "Rick N' Roll", Rick Rolling is an internet prank in which "roll-ers" disguise a link to a Rick Astley video on YouTube as another video or website (usually consisting of puppies, unconfirmed gaming news, fake presidential updates, or blogs with interesting or funny comments) to the the "roll-ee". But why Rick Astley? To find out why,

Some think it's an attempt at a comeback, but personally, I can't think of a better prank than getting his highly infectious song to repeat in someone's head all day. And apparently, it's catching on. Rick's YouTube vid has had almost seven million hits since it was posted last year. This is definitely something my girl Giggle would appreciate, since it seems she's such a big fan!
