## Gotcha! Gags: Westley’s Coolest Practical Jokes EVER!

This is the special book of practical jokes in the box.

### Sporting Shenanigans!

1. Attend a sporting event or gather with friends to watch a game where there is a referee or umpire who uses a whistle.
2. Wait for the referee or umpire to blow the whistle during a critical moment in the game.
3. As soon as you hear the whistle, blow into your fart whistle, creating a farting noise.
4. The unexpected and comical sound effect will likely catch people off guard and add a goofy twist to the situation.
5. Enjoy the mirthful amusement that follows as everybody realizes it was just a funny, jolly jape!

### Bonkers Bedtime Biz!

1. Get ready for bed and ensure you have your handheld electronic whoopee machine ready.
2. When it's time to sleep, put your butt on your pillow and activate your hidden handheld whoopee machine.
3. When you feel that your eyes are heavy, you can put your whoopee machine beside your bed and give yourself a nice vacation.

### The Height Test…Who’s REALLY Taller?

1. Find a partner who is willing to participate.
2. Hide the whoopee machine securely in the palm of your hand, ensuring it remains hidden from sight.
3. Tell your partner that you will do a height-testing challenge to determine who is taller.
4. Stand back-to-back with your partner, making sure your backs are touching.
5. As you lean against each other, activate the whoopee machine discreetly, producing the farting noises.
6. When your partner feels the sensation of the whoopee machine and hears the noises, they may bend their knees, crouch down and cover their eyes, simulating a reaction to being "farted down;" they'll also shout out, "OW, MY EYE!"
7. If you have multiple partners, you can turn this into an elimination challenge. Choose one partner per round; when they react to the jape, they're out of the game.
8. Enjoy the laughter and amusement that follows as everyone realizes they've been pranked.

### Toot Tunes

You’ll need your pot of toots and your wonderful singing voice for this one!

1. Gather your pot of squishy goo, ensuring it's clean and ready for use.
2. Take the squishy goo out of the pot, preparing it for the prank.
3. Choose a song you enjoy and feel confident singing. It can be any song you like, whether it's a popular tune or your own creation.
4. Start singing your chosen song, using your wonderful singing voice to provide the vocals.
5. As you sing, tap the squishy goo back into the pot in a steady beat, creating a rhythmic sound to accompany your vocals.
6. Have fun with the squishy goo, allowing it to produce enjoyable squishing sounds as you tap it along to the song.
7. Embrace the silliness and laughter that arise from the combination of your singing and the amusing sounds of the squishy goo.

### Runner’s Cramp

Here’s something scentless that’ll make Carrot Top (his real name is Scott Thompson) oh so proud! You’ll need a partner and your whoopee machine for this one; lie down on your bed and tell your partner that you have runner’s cramp from dashing all around the schoolyard track. After talking about your ailment, ask your partner to push your ankle to stretch out your cramp. When your partner pushes your ankle up to a rather high height, activate your whoopee machine, forgive your rudeness, deliver a humorous line and then thank your partner for curing your cramp (i.e. "Forgive my rudeness, but I'm sorry about that exploding greenhouse! Anyway, thank you so much for stretching and curing this runner’s cramp of mine!") You partner will reply, "Anytime!", "You're welcome!", etc.

### Eau de Whatever

The good news is that there isn't a pungent aroma, but the great news is that it's just plain delightful because you're pretending that your butt makes body spray! Conceal your handheld whoopee machine in your hand, put the smooth inside of your wrist up to your butt and activate the whoopee machine; now, invite somebody to smell your awesome cologne (if you're a guy) or your super wonderful perfume (if you're a girl.) Don't forget to come up with a name for your body spray and talk about the ingredients! For example, "This is Eau de Periwinkle, it smells just like freshly-picked periwinkle blossoms!” Or, try this line: “Behold, my new fragrance, Eau de Marigold, it smells just like freshly-picked marigold blossoms!”

### The World's Biggest Snoop

Detectives and spies got you down? Put a piece of paper that says, "Congrats, you're the world's biggest snoop!" inside your screaming knapsack, turn it on and then, when somebody snoops as usual, they'll get a shocking surprise from Kam Chin's very own vocal cords!

### Pageant Prep

The good news is that there are no aromas and liquids in audio fart spray, but the great news is that the can makes for a great faux hairspray can! Tell everybody that you're spraying your perfectly-styled hair for the upcoming pageant, then put the speaker end of the audio fart spray can (shaped like a bugle) up to your hair and hit the button! Your fellow audience members will be reacting instantly!

### Time For A Toon!

Record a TV cartoon theme song with your yakkity bak and play it back to break silence.

### Guess Who's Talking

You'll need your box of terrific expressions for this one; when anyone's at a party or a fun park, activate your talking box...they'll believe that their favourite cartoon homies are speaking to them!

#### The Buttons

* Chartreuse-Madison saying, "Don't you wanna hang out with us, your best friends?" and "Ow, my eye!"
* Marigold-Philly saying, "By Newton's apple, I will not let you down!" and "Behold, the Philly-Cycle 3000!"
* Periwinkle-Kam saying, "Ow, my eye!" and "Next!"

### Fartitis...PFFFFFFFFFT!

This gag is named for the made-up ailment and the noise you’ll blame on the person in the middle; you will need your whoopee cushion and two of your homies for this one. Inflate your whoopee cushion, put it in your underarm and arrange yourselves so that you’re on the right, your first homie is on the left and your second homie is in the middle. Tell your homies about the new ailment going around by reciting the following: "Fartitis is the all-new ailment that's going around; when you get it, you let things go right after breakfast time, lunchtime, suppertime, dinnertime, snacktime and worst of all, dessert time! You can lower your risk of fartitis by skipping desserts and eating less foods than usual." After your little explanation, bring your elbow into your torso as your other hand activates the whoopee cushion; look at the homie in the middle and utter the following line: "Get well soon, 'cause now YOU'VE got that crazy ailment!" Your homie will then forgive their rudeness; afterwards, just reply, "Your rudeness has been forgiven." Whatever you do, ALWAYS remember the "you're welcome" when the homie in the middle thanks you for the forgiven rudeness!

### Ow, My Eye!

This gag is named for the line uttered by Kam and Madison when they have eye pain from things being flung at them. Look through your black eye kaleidoscope, twirl it around a few times for satisfaction and then when you're done, cry out, "Ow, my eye!" Your partner will think that you're in pain, but explain to them: "It was just a delightfully harmless jape!"

### Get The Buzz!

Crank up your buzzer, but not too much and not too little! Buzz it whenever you zip a zipper, unzip a zipper, stoop, take a bow, enter a room or even bend over. Try it behind the curtains so you get away from a totally shocking wasp, as the world's littlest CD player to share with a homie and even when you enter a room!

### It Was Her!

Put one of the glitter whoopee straws in your underarm, then blow and blame away! Always remember to forgive rudeness. (You may need to adjust the straw to get that shocking fart!)

### Whoopie-Whoopie Whimsy!

Hit some buttons on your handheld electronic whoopie machine when you zip your zipper or even bend over. You could also hit a button when you enter a room or even sit down! Also, try sticking the "Beware of Butt Balloon Deflations!" sign on a seat with your whoopee cushion (inflated with one of your glitter straws) placed on it.

### Smell My Flower!

Fill the bulb of your squirting flower with water, then attach it back to the pipe. Invite a friend to smell your flower; when they get a whiff, squeeze the bulb to shower your homie!

### Pull My Sore, Throbbing, Aching, Cramping, Painfully Hurt and Numb Finger!

Hide your handheld electronic whoopie machine in one of your hands and then place that hand behind your back. Now, stick the pointer finger of your visible hand out and tell someone that your finger hurts, cramps, throbs and aches because it’s so sore and encourage, request or even ask them to cure the pain with a good, hard pull! When your homie pulls your finger, activate your whoopee machine, forgive your rudeness, utter a whimsical line and finally, thank your chum from the bottom of your heart! Your homie will politely reply, "Anytime, you’re welcome!"

### Super Squirter Sensations!

Take the flowery part away from your squirting flower for a super squirter! Here are 2 bright ideas for jolly japesters just like YOU!

#### William Tell

Put an apple on your homie's head and squirt them!

#### The Sea Beast

Put your super squirter's tube through a Madison headband or Philly sweatband, squeeze the bulb and make your best whale calls!

### Shoe Toots

As you're walking around, use your handheld whoopie machine and blame your shoes for farting.
