The Greatest Office Prank, like, everrrr

There are two types of mice out there...ones that can hang with me, and ones that are scared ERR the ones with the ball on the bottom, and optical mice with the red light sensor. It was my work friend's, we'll call him Daniel, last day. I arrive in the morning with my usual "Comfort Casual" Friday attire - Kessler's on my breath, a hooker's lipstick on my neck, urine on my pants. I'm in no shape for anything cerebral at this point. I logged onto my computer and tried to open a few things up, but my cursor on the screen wouldn't move. I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in. No dice. Tried going through the computer's add/remove hardware wizard. No dice. This went on for 30 minutes. A tad bit frustrated I stood up and stared at my computer with my palms to the ceiling. "What do you want from me!?" Turns out our friend Daniel cut the tiniest square of paper and taped it over the red light sensor of my optical mouse. The mouse never thought it was moving. Dan laughed. I shook his hand. A legend was born. At least I made $7.50 for that half hour of my troubles.
