3 words: Vaseline, Vaseline, Vaseline!
If you aren't familiar with Vaseline,
I suggest you spend some time together. Vaseline is oily,
feels extremely greasy, is clear, and does not easily come
off, even after washing your hands. These properties make
it the perfect substance to put wherever an unsuspecting
hand might push, touch, or grasp. Such places include, but
are not limited to:
- door knobs,
- lamp light knobs,
- car door handles and stereo dials,
- hair brush handles,
- curling iron handles,
- cooking utensils,
- phones,
- alarm clock switches,
- any metal handles,
- light switches,
- many more places that I'm sure will
pop into your head!
What makes Vaseline such a great gag,
is that 1) it feels absolutely disgusting when you first
unknowingly touch it, 2) you may not know what it is right
away so that’s disgusting, 3) even if you know what
the goop is, it is still gross that Vaseline somehow got
on the place you just touched and is also now on your fingers
and hands, 4) it can make the object it was smeared on difficult
to use, and 5) you now have take the time to clean it from
your hand and the object you just touched.
Perhaps the most comedic application of
Vaseline is when placed on a lamp knob in a dark room, where
the person has no other source of light and is forced to
use the lamp’s slippery knob or sit in the dark. Speaking
from first-hand experience, turning a lubed-up knob is an
almost impossible task, unless you first wipe off the Vaseline,
even then, if any of the lubricant remains, it is still
a daunting challenge.
You might want to try taking Vaseline
to your next family get-together. Place some on doorknobs,
especially the front door, and watch your relatives find
a little something special when they try to let themselves
in.

The vaseline thing is funny, funny, funny.
I found the best place to put it is the the toliet seat.
Man o'man I did it to my sister.
I forgot that I put it on the seat and when she sat on it she sliped off and
she had that vaseline shit all over her. It was funny.
Thanks Danielle
