Pranks with scales

I saw this post WHAT!! oh..never mind , and it reminded me of a trick with the scale I played on my wife. I would like to hear others, too!

When she was preganant, they were watching he weight gain closely. I went with her to hear the heartbeat, but before that, they did a weigh-in. The nurse was there, so my wife figured the weighin was legit, but I did the old foot on the scale bit, giving her an extra 20 pounds.

It was GREAT! The look on her face, and the nurse joining in, priceless!

I highly recommend doing that to a pregnant woman whenever you can!

You're lucky you don't have my wife. Hormones and such would have gotten you a knee to the face...

Your wife has an awesome sense of humor. Most women would have had thoughts of performing a full circumcision.
