There is nothing more annoying than a greedy roommate. It's absolutely infuriating to wake up and find the cookies your mother just made for you gone without a trace. Your favorite drink is empty and the homemade meal you worked so hard on the night before is nowhere to be found. This irked me so much that I made this shocking cookie jar. When a cookie burglar touches the side and the lid of the jar simultaneously, a small electric shock stops them in their tracks.
Are you the expert hacker we're looking for? Do you have a great idea for an article on Null Byte? Do you have a passion to write, and more importantly... teach?

Basically 2 ideas, one more creative than the other..Falling sky Pretty simple and doesnt take alot of imagination. Find a way to rig thousands of set mousetraps on a ceiling or something, and release them as soon as the victim enters the room. I think it would be most effective in a warehouse or something big. RoomdivingWell, we all know how the military drops tanks and such out of airplanes, well, what if there was a way to drop a purpose built room from an airplane? (With the SLEEPING vict...

My prank will be on steve-o and chris pontius. This prank is also like the taxi prank because it is a reverse prank.

I wear a prosthetic eye and a good prank could be having Steve-O Swallow it and attempt to throw it back up. It is similar to the goldfish prank only it would be horrible if he couldn't throw it back up. It would have to come out the other end.

Johnny (as I think he loves making jokes) keeps in a hand one dirty absorbent (I think a girl may be helpfull for this one ;) pretty heavy menstruations are needed ). It doesn't have to be "fresh", it should be a little bit old (probably the smell will get worse with the time)... Johnny, furtively, goes behind somebody (of the crew, obviously) and slaps the absorbent on the guy's face (preferably on the mouth).... The reaction won't be so good, so a cup or something like that wouldn't be a ba...

My idea for a prank would be to screw with Ehren tricking him into a wild water ride. Remember that episode of nitro circus when one of the dudesens and one of the nitro crew were playing a crazy game of tug of war by bungee cording each other and riding quads which ended up with them both getting knocked off the bikes, well why not the same do but tweak it. What I was thinking is we are all on a nice beach and we decide to play that same tug of war game in the sand but blinded, and before we...

Okay folks, I've finally finished my underground ancient city. Actually it's more like, I need to move on to other things and really should stop obsessing over this thing already. You can find it at the warp location "woodcity" - which is funny because there is not a stick of wood in it!

All is enveloped in the...
