Actually, yes it's funny...

*smirk* Fly on the wall! Fly on the wall!

Y'know those velcro suits that you wear and then you throw yourself at a velcroed wall? Ooh...that'd be fun to duct tape people to...

The only problem is that people fall off walls and ceilings...duct tape doesn't work particularly well on crummy paintwork.

See, if you duct tape people to the floor, they cannae move as much, too. *cackle* Something to do with the Physics of the situation. I dunno. Haven't done much physics yet.

*brainwave* Why not duct tape people to an aeroplane? Just under the cockpit window so they get the best of the wind resistance...

You guys don't know your tape well enough then. Duct tape and packing tape and cloth tape are all useless... they melt to easily at high temperatures, even just the heat caused by friction ... Thus, Gaffer Tape is the bond of choice by us theatre techs.

Fine. Gaffa-tape somebody to a toll-booth guard-rail.

Still, using tape of any sort for pranks like this is somewhat... petty.
Oh well, I suppose it's your style.

I stay loyal to my duct tape...

and I still await a truly strong double sided version.

I blow my nose at gaffer tape. It comes off, too, and is shiny.

Stay loyal to your tape. I'll stay loyal to my phone-cord. Old phone-cord. Bronze-wiring phone-cord.

pfft. Amateurs.

*nod* Amateur is best. Then at least you've got an excuse for making mistakes.

I'm with Liam here on this one. Gaffer tape all the way. It's so versatile!

Why last year alone, I gaffer taped four people to the headboard of my...*cough*

Um, it can be used to mark places on the stage, or to hold someone's bag together, or to strap a sprained ankle, or to gaffer Little Phil onto a chair and carry him through Melbourne High... *snicker*

I preferred it when our methods class used glad-wrap to attach Mr. Wosney to his chair. Ah, what fond memories...
....
Yes Dani, we'd rather not know what's been attached to your headboard.

I still think that Glad-wrapping Steve Bell (Catet CommOff) and taking him to all his classes on muckup day '98 is a classic. Especially when Mr. Willis (School Principal) met the four cadets who were charioting him around and asked
"What are you doing"
"We're taking Steve to history"
"Very Well.. Carry on..."

Classic.

Ooh...perhaps I'll try that in year 12. *grins*

It helps if you have a very tolerant principal.

Twelveeyes · Post by **Twelveeyes** » Sun Mar 31, 2002 4:12 am

Stozza...nah, she wouldn't be around.
I have no idea what the senior school principal is like, though...shall have to find out next year.

Mr. Wills wasn't too bad a Principal.
*grumbles* Just had to bust us up over our extended muck-up-day-fight in the park.

*pats*

Ah, we didn't get picked up for any of the stuff we've done previously...neither has anyone else, I think...hrmm...glitter on fans...*smerkles*

"We're taking Steve to history"
"Very Well.. Carry on..."

Classic.

Was that Steve?? My god, I wish I'd remembered...I would have given him so much shit last year at Easters...

Didn't they also gaffer Philby Jnr to a flagpole?

Corybantic · Post by **Corybantic** » Thu Apr 11, 2002 4:50 am

Again, I believe that was gladwrap... I think the stretchyness of it makes it cheaper and easier.

Twelveeyes · Post by **Twelveeyes** » Fri Apr 12, 2002 1:23 am

Hee. But you guys don't reuse gladwrap, do you? *snicker* I have.

And that is supposed to be a good thing?
