    To think, I was probably the first person to ever do this prank. But since I did it 25 years ago, tier was no "quick" way to record it.
    I also wrote a few dozen g's 9's p's 6's and b's on the chalkboard before the teacher came in, and pulled down the projector screen to cover what I wrote until he pulled it up ( The teacher suffered from dyslexia. )
    Another teacher had a terrible problem with the names of things. He would call a stapler a pencil, etc...
    So before he came in, I took a hundred post-its, and labeled EVERYTHING! (Including his own stack of post-it notes)
    Boomer pranks were for the joy of the moment.

      So when he made eye contact with me, my cousins and I all put an up the L on our foreheads, and he went from tears to all smiles.
