Default Prank Retaliation

It's the last day for one of my co-workers today. I got in to work this morning to find that everything on my desk (papers, phone, photos, wall hangings... the whole works!) had been moved to the exact opposite side of the desk.

I need to plan a retaliation of sorts and I need your help!

I've got an great photo of him and one of our senior executives at a local charity event. Does anyone have any amusing, yet tasteful caption/speech bubble that we could attach to this photo? He is very well liked, loves to goof around and would get a kick out of some sort of payback. I could plan to photocopy it and then then plaster his work area or vehicle.

Does anyone else have any good stories of office pranks, both ones that turned out well and any that blew up in your face?

Do you know anyone at the company he's moving to? If not, now's the time to develop some new allies...

I woulda assumed it was the prank where these guys went out to their friend's place across the country to visit (friend moved away for a job). he went to work the day they were gonna fly out, and before they left, they painted his bedroom in his apartment all pink and video taped it. I saw it on youtube a couple weeks ago...

I cannot look at youtube at work either

Call up his wife and tell her he died.

No to both guesses...It's a glorified commercial for some product, I can't remember what specifically, I think software..

Begins with "ever since we implemented <insert product>, we just don't have enough to do" It then goes back and forth with pranks these 2 guys did to each other. The stapler one is the funniest.

Put together some sort of official looking document from HR asking for reimbursement for pilfered office supplies. Detail a listing of supplies procured and supplies accounted for (in desk, disposed of) and supplies unaccounted for. Maybe add a caveat that is the above total is above $x, charges may be filed with law enforcement.
