Turning 40 "tricks", it is pay back time

I turned 40 last June and my ex sister-in-law, who also lives across the street, was nice enough to let the whole neighborhood know about it. I arrived home to find two poster boards with Lordy, Lordy Betsy's 40 written on them, with various other drawings. There were also black balloons flying everywhere.

Well, now it is my turn. She turns 40 tomorrow, so pay backs are heck. Anyone got any ideas to help me with proper "reimbursement"?

Are you too old to toilet paper her house? :lol:

Can you make a banner that says she's 40 and hang it from her roof?
I may be too old but my kids aren't :lol: . No, I AM NOT TOO OLD! But she would know who did it and I may be too old to climb the tree and get it down. I like the banner idea, just have to figure out how to put it up without getting caught. She is a stay at home Mom, so I can't wait for her to go to work. Hmmmmm. I'll have to think on that one.
You didn't mention her name for a suitable poster. This may be too much but how about a sink (or toilet) with a sign "XXXX's life is down the drain, she turnes 40 today."

or

"Forget it guys, XXX turns 40 today."

Don't forget the black crepe paper
Her name is Angie.
You could sign her up for AARP online...
When my best friend turned 40, I sent her a funeral wreath from the local florest. Delivered with great pomp and circumstance... :lol:
Well, the toilet is on it's way. My hubby just happens to be a plumber. Keep 'em coming though, I don't want to stop here.
Well I toilet papered my neighbor's house a couple years ago.. :oops: :oops: He was a practical joker and had done something to my house, so in retaliation I did several things much to our amusement. I should mention this old fellow was much loved and over the years had caused numerous pranks in the neighborhood. As a landscaper he had numerous machines at his disposal and one time placed someone's car sideways in their garage. :excited:

Not only did I toilet paper his house, but I placed a toilet in front of his house with a warning sign. I had some warning letters which appeared to be from the health department, which I passed out to all on our block. It said something about this particular person had noxious gases emitting from a orfice in their body and beware! Also warned about giving this individual beer, beans or cabbage and should you smell the noxious odor coming from this house..RUN!

Not quite the same thing as a 40th birthday but get creative!

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Ah, Angie,

Ancient Aged Angie's

Youth is down the Drain.

She'll Never be Young

and Puerile* A-gain.

(burma shave....LOL)

(*can't come up with another word there)
A poplular "trick" in this area is to "flock" the yard of the person having the big birthday. In fact, some area church youth groups will do it for you for a small fee as a fund raiser. LOL

To "flock" a yard, while the person is gone (or at night while they're asleep), the yard is FILLED with pink flamingos. :wink:
Recently I heard the company that makes the flamingos has quit! bummer.
Depends. Stack a whole bunch of them on the porch. Just leave them there. Hopefully all the neighbors will see them before Angie notices them!

I also like the idea of making a bunch of posterboard signs and putting them all over the yard.
Well, I ended up with three poster boards, a 40th b'day streamer, a toilet and some balloons. Two of the posters were on a floral wreath stand like they send to funerals. I have a pic, but I am not at the computer that has my camera software. Will have to post tomorrow.
