- optimus_maximus, on 10/12/2007, -8/+9778. Pay for your dinner with pennies.
This reminds me of the best prank I've ever seen . As a HS grad gift, my ex-girlfriend's dad got his niece $100 in pennies ... individually wrapped in 1 inch squares of wrapping paper. Well, $40 into our wrapping bonanza I said, "Well, what if she gets smart and burns the wrapping paper? We should use aluminum foil." That made it easier to wrap and way harder to unwrap. Man, that girl got through $20 before she gave it away to her little sister. BTW $100 in wrapped pennies fills two five gallon buckets.
So, for another niece everyone was expecting him to top that one. He did. He gave the next one $100 ... except he used eggs. He didn't want this one to stretch out over time (2 years later and not even half of them were unwrapped), so with eggs she would have to get all the money within a couple days, or else. He took one dollar bills, rolled them up, made a small hole in the egg, inserted the dollar in the hole, and then HARD BOILED the eggs. Some of them were soft-boiled (nasty), and the best part was when his niece cracked one egg that was left untouched and raw (all over her lap).
That is how you annoy people
- awm4, on 10/12/2007, -2/+58249. Add lots of space between sentences forcing everyone to scroll even farther to read more interesting comments

- bitcloud, on 10/12/2007, -3/+53#253 Add an additional point to the list long after the joke is over. Get the number wrong for that extra kick...
- Calculusaurus, on 10/12/2007, -6/+49this list be renamed "248 ways to be awesome"
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -13/+46#251: Pollute Digg's front page with an article that's barely worthy of being a chain e-mail.
- utdrew182, on 10/12/2007, -3/+29Incorrectly use words that sound alike just to piss people off.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+30And this seals the deal:
"72. Leave your Nine Inch Nails tape in Great Uncle Ed's stereo, with the volume properly adjusted."
Tape????? - altcountryman, on 10/12/2007, -5/+26I don't know, did you?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21Dugg - in accordance with prophecy.
- GWoods, on 10/12/2007, -3/+21please bury above comment. it contains the list. if you want to read it then expand it. I just don't want it taking up space for pople who don't want to read it
- oblongmouth, on 10/12/2007, -4/+20Thats a good way to annoy people on Digg
here's 3 more:
1) DIGG ME DOWN YOU SUCKERS!
2) Repost the same story
3) Link to your blog instead of the actual story - Spizzat2, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18Stewie: Lois! Lois! Lois! Lois! Lois! Lois! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mama! Mama! Mama! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Mum! Mum! Mum! Mum! Mummy! Mummy! Mumma! Mumma! Mumma!
Lois: What!?
Stewie: Hi! - NinjaBoy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14I guess i'm getting dugg down by the people who were at the tournaments.
- dustedbunny, on 10/12/2007, -6/+19skyshock.
please go away. You do nothing but make comments like this on everything. And you know what. That in itself is annoying.
#250 - Turn everything (even a debate about whether the sky is blue or the grass is green) into a political argument. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14"166. On a night other than Halloween, get a few friends together and dress like Jason from Friday the 13th. Have each of you stand a mile apart on a highway."
That one's great! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1439. Mow your lawn with scissors.
Sounds like that would annoy me more than anyone else. - nxtwrld, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10We have one master annoyer, I didn't find in the list:
Pick a person, who's busy talking to someone else and keep trying to attract his attention by calling out his name (just to let him hear without being louder than his conversation). When he finally turns to You, just say: "Can You....ahhh You wouldn't know that anyway.." - Grimdotdotdot, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12#249 - post 10 year-old (seriously) things on Digg.
- Sparticuz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8My friend has actually done that before. People really did slow down, except we were on a major highway, not in our front yard
- jhaydon, on 10/12/2007, -6/+13"Spend an entire weekend pretending you are R2-D2"
This list is a must-read! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Ohhh la la - #20 and #80 are the same - in accordance with prophecy.
- Wootery, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7It's missing
Occasionally add 'no pun intended' to the end of a sentence. - webcrumb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8248 ways to annoy someone
Part I
1.
next week, Part II. - Coffeedemon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Missed one:
make 248 separate pages (each with ads) to give readers 248 ways to annoy people. - Bobcat7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5My dad had a store some years ago. The counter had a glass top. He glued some change to the underside of the glass. Right in the spot where the cashier would give you your change. It was funny watching people trying to pick up those coins. The best part was people who had been there a hundred times and knew the joke, but they would still try to get those coins.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6my dog is called "dog" well dog 2 actually dog 1 died, but I've also got a fish called "fish".
what is even more annoying is when you look after someone elses pet is give it a new name. - Antha, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Ohhhhhhh....dogs? Sure, I like dags.
- davesphone00, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8My favorite:
Fart loudly in a crowded elevator when you've reached your floor. "Sniff you jerks later" - VioletArrows, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Touch her face and see what happens.
- pile0nades, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10actually, typing in all lowercase isn't nearly as annoying as typing in all uppercase.
ACTUALLY, TYPING IN ALL LOWERCASE ISN'T NEARLY AS ANNOYING AS TYPING IN ALL UPPERCASE. - mikesherov, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10Wow... outdated. Both the examples and the list itself are from another era:
1. Listen to 33RPM records at 45RPM speed, and claim the faster speed is necessary because of your "superior mental processing."
2. Tape pieces of "Sweating to the Oldies" over climatic parts of rental movies.
249 should be "Dial other rapscallions on your telegramaphone, and ask if their salted food pantry is operating." - dstrube, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10It lists "Repeat everything someone says, as a question." twice?
#80 and #20?
fail?
Funny list tho? - dustedbunny, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11...
just. nevermind. - Devrdander, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Yes, this was from an era when Email Lists were funny and spread like STD's across AOL Mailboxes
- Ellsass, on 11/05/2008, -4/+9I just got that one... At first I thought it was referring to cars slowing down because of the increased wind blowing at them from the dryer... Then I realized it looks like a radar gun. Oops.
- TheWorm, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Seems like an aweful lot of work just to be annoying.
- bliz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I'm so sorry, can you enlighten me...which part of
"dugg to annoy.
now annoy me by digging me down"
is a pun? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -11/+15These were all pretty amusing when I saw them for the first time about eight years ago.
- n8r0n, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5My sister did that...very annoying.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Whore
- Klisk, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9@optimus
And the niece's parents didn't beat the living ***** out of him!? That's how it would of happened in my family, *lol*. Brother or not. . . - dstrube, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Here's another: When you go to someone else's house, turn off all lights that are on, and vice versa.
- Caboose101, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4"247. WRIGHT N AL CAPITOL LETERS AND MISSSSSPEL EVRYTHIND!!!"
Certainly people on digg are familiar with this particular one... - GuyHitByTruck, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5No, it's that old, it's just that nothing's changed at Microsoft for so long.
- TheGilmanator, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4#249- Post internet gags to Digg that have been around since 1998.
- biff198, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I have 15 chickens, but I keep things going by rotating their names between "chicken", "stupid chicken", and "frickin' chicken"
- webcrumb, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Yeah. Like Microsoft engineers still read emails about new bug reports.
