Induce Paranoia by Sam I Are

February 4th, 2008 6:45 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Induce paranoia. For example, install fake surveillance cameras in semi-private places.

When I saw this task I almost peed myself. Why, you might ask? Because I've been doing this to my roommate already, before I'd even heard of SFØ. It doesn't get much sweeter than that.

Let me set the stage.

Lately he's learned about some of the weirder things floating around on the net. Things I shamefully already know about. I had joked a couple times about changing the background on his computer to something…unholy. Something mortal men should not see. He made the mistake of leaving for the restroom.

I locked the door and awaited his return.

He tried the handle and unsuspectingly asked me to unlock the door. I complied but gave him a mischievous grin when he entered. He glared at me and asked what I'd done.

"I did something to something of yours. I'll give you one clue. You'll wish I had not done it."

His first reaction was to check his computer. When that yielded no results he began to search the room. All the while I egged him on.

"All I can say is you'd better find it before your girlfriend does."

Over the next couple of days I kept bringing it up.

"You're going to see your girlfriend tonight? I wouldn't take your computer unless you want to be really embarrassed then."

Best part? He's an SFØ member and won't find out this is a joke until he sees this (because I'm sure not going to tell him, this is too good). All of my video proof was taken without his knowledge, that's why you don't see his face. You can all chuckle to yourselves knowing that he is searching right now, at this moment, while I type, completely oblivious.

Update: He found out! Oh noes!


- smaller

"On the internet"

Looking through his computer for any signs of foul play.


"That's not what I want to do you asshole!"

Videos taken secretly by cellphone. He's still searching his computer for traces of what I may have done.


"You signed me up for something..."

At this point he's sure I signed him up for porn and he'll be getting an inbox full of it.

Wow.

Please, please let us know what happens when he finds out.

Well done motherfucker. Kudos for you. How very clever you are, I should have known you were doing a challenge. It's so obvious now. Perhaps you really do deserve my vote. However, I would be wary of what may come to be old friend.

It's not very nice to say "Motherfucker". Go to the time out corner young man!

Nice

The fact that you did it to a roomate gets a vote from me. I'd never dare do something like this to someone who could get me back at any time. Might want to make sure you carry your key with you to the shower, eh? Oh, and geoff, I eagerly await your piraxis of revenge. I don't know which task, but I'm waiting for it.

I'm also looking forward to the revenge praxis. Good luck, ge[off]!

"Revenge Praxis" A new SFØ word was just created. I believe in the future we will look back on this page as the start of something big. Like Shplank and Pretired.

I agree.

We've yet to see Ben's revenge praxis for the rage he received.

Honored

I am honored to have played a part in the creation of a new word guys.

And yes, I'm very scared and watching my back closely.

So you may in fact have induced more paranoia in yourself than in your target?

Ironically, this completion has now induced paranoia in both the target -- and the prankster!
