I need ideas

So I got pranked tonight, by the girls upstairs. It would seem that our closets are connected by a trap door of sort, as in a hole in the ceiling/floor. Well, they shredded up a lot of paper. In fact, so much paper, the closet is entirely filled with shredded paper.

So /NSG, how do I get back at them. Mind you, this is a Christian apartment building, so I can't necessarily do anything TOO bad.

Here's what a bunch of guys on my dorm hall did last year:

Get one of those small plastic wastebaskets. Fill it with water. Lean it against their door, and knock. Run away really fast. (Make sure, of course, that you do this when they're home...)

Hilarity results.

Pull a prank and remove the paper at the same time.
First, get an old asbestos curtain and nail it to your closet door.
Then, slip a match under the door.
Wait for hilarity to ensue.

This one.

pour flour on them while they are in the shower. It turns into paste.

spread powdered milk in their bed. The milk grinds into their pours, then turns to milk in the shower, then goes sour

I'm sure none of us will tell anybody about the video that you're going to post of them having naked pillow-fights in view of their closet.

Just climb up into their room and chill for an afternoon.

When they come home to see you chilling in their living room, say something like "What? Your couch/TV is much nicer than mine."

Order a food delivery to their address from a place that's open really late (obviously, it is preferable if there's one that's open later than they usually go to bed).

EDIT:

Phenolphthalein? Does it turn pink (I'm assuming urine is acidic here)?

Not extreme enough. I'd go with cancelling their phone/cable/gas service, but it's an apartment. Hm.

Great idea!
Also, add a little vasoline in there and leave it in optimal places, like doorknobs, their clothing drawers (especially the socks!), their hairbrushes, their writing utensils, and their photo albums (especially the baby pictures).
If they ask, say it's ectoplasm from a ghost that's trying to get back at someone in the dorm.
Hilarity ensues!

Well the trick here is to get laid, so you don't want to do anything that actually annoys them, or costs them money.

If you had the inclination, you should make that shredded paper into clothing in some way - then walk past them nonchalantly wearing it, a carefree whistle might add to the effect.

It partly accepts the joke and partly amuses them - you'll be sleeping with at least one of them by nightfall.

Got it. Wear steel-toed boots, with torn inside insulation, and walk around in a swamp for a while wearing wool socks. Do it to three or four pairs of them, and then set them to simmer in the stew with brussel sprouts, garlic and boiled eggs.
Aroma ensues!

Don't. Revenge is stupid and foolish, and since you're a Christian you're supposed to turn the other cheek anyway.

And for the love of not wasting resources, please make something with that paper, like a paper mache statue or something...

Yeah, tell me where Jesus said "Thou shalt not play pranks on your brothers and sisters".


Besides, the paper is going to good use...being dumped back on them at some point, after I cover the hole up with ply wood.

That's not good use. That's a waste of resources.

But whatever. I know you're not going to listen to me--not sure why since you seem to change opinions at the drop of a hat every few weeks--so I'll just shut up.

They probably want a little on the side. Or, knowing you, you let them know you're a virgin, and they're enticed by that. And learn this now, if you learn anything ... very VERY VERY few people are exclusive in their hearts as well as their relationships.
My suggestion is to take it.

It doesn't really matter if they have boyfriends; girls with boyfriends are the absolute best at hooking you up, they want other couples to hang around with and will spend a great amount of time recommending you to friends if you're a eligible.

It's as if Zilam doesn't want to get laid with his defeatist attitude.

Well actually, you might have a point there! A girl I do have my eye on, hangs out with them a lot. This might get me in the door for a relationship. By pranking back, it shows my clever and funny side. Nice idea.

Further, girls are quite often looking to upgrade, and could consider him seriously if their current relationships fail for whatever predictable/natural reasons.

Back to the advice: you could take all their clothes from the closet (do store them somewhere safe) and replace them with the most horrible ones you can find. I suggest fluorescent pink.

Put on some winter music on an endless loop and decorate their apartment with any wintery stuff they have or you can find around there like skis, skates, a thermos bottle, a snow shovel, Christmas decorations and such. The best decoration would be a giant inflatable snowman. Lastly, spread the paper evenly over their floor.

If it was a girl that did this to you, then maybe she's flirting with you. Which means if you don't prank her, she's going to assume you're not interested.
And whatever prank you pull (and surely she will be expecting one) has to be funny and imaginative yet not shocking and disturbing.

Buy a kitten and put it in their apartment. You know how strange it would be to come home and find out you have a cat you didn't have when you left?

Use the paper to make a pinata filled with chocolate but shape the pinata like yourself and put it on their couch while they're out.

Or if you're trying to unimpress them, just take a couple of peices from your closet and constantly walk past them while rubbing it on your cheek. Hilarity ensues.

How are they not going to notice post-it notes on the bottom of their mice? Tape would work, though.

Uhm... Unless phenolpthalein here where I am is something different than in the rest of the world, it's gonna go pink/purple in alkalic environment...

@Zilam: get into their room (through this closet, of course) when they're outside, then hide under the bed. ;)

Or do something like this:
* put a stool, a chair there, or hang a bag that will let its contents loose when they open the door at their side;
* put floor there;
* put there a fan, and arrange it so that it will switch on when they open the door.

Also, old door+something that falls stuff: put a piece of thick paper in the upper gap between the door and its frame, then get a teabag and cut the bottom, then use tape or glue to stick it (by that paper-and-string stuff one uses to pull the bag out of cup) and put it on the paper. When they open the door, the paper falls away, so the teabag lets its contents loose on them.

[edit]
They surely have cosmetics, like a skin tonic (y'know, the casual de-make-up, or pimples-healing stuff). Go there, empty the bottles, and fill them with something like water solution of sugar.

There are certain liquids that turn different colors when exposed to an acid or a base. Some turn red when exposed to an acid.

Since wee is naturally acidic, you could pour some of this into their toilets to make them think that they're pissing blood.

Or... here's a good one. Get a smoke machine and rig some kind of platform to set it on so that it's right under the lil' porthole up to their closet. If their closet is closed, smoke will billow out from the cracks into the living room, leading them to believe something in there is on fire.

Hilarity will ensue.

Pickles popped into my mind for some reason .. I'm not sure what you could do with said pickles without pissing them off tho. Maybe I just want a pickle.
