Help me be a dink
My brother just won our NHL pool for the first time in his life. In years past he has been known to pay the winner in humorous/dinkish ways. For example, one year he brought a sack of 2000 unrolled pennies, and another year he paid in Mexican Pesos. So it's payback time, and I'm trying to think of a nice evil way to harass him with my payment.
The only idea I have right now is to write 20 separate $1 cheques, and then mail them individually over a period of 4-6 weeks. Ideally I'd also mail them in such a way that he has to go to the post office to pick them up (I think this typically is required if you have to sign for something but aren't around when they come by). Unfortunately I'm guessing that the costs of this will be prohibitive, although I'm going to look into it. So, assuming I can't afford to pull off the above, I'm wondering if any of the evil geniuses here can help me think of something else that might work. Any ideas?

Does it have to be in cash in some form? If not, you could get him a $20 gift certificate for a bikini wax.

I think it needs to be something he can convert to cash, so gift certificates are probably out. The conversion can be as painful as possible, though. I wonder if I could place the money into a paypal-type account and make him somehow withdraw it from there?

Send a (nasty) stripper to his house, with his payment in her panties and he has to dig to get it.

Hey, I talked to your girlfriend. You might need this for a second pregnancy test. If he isn't doing her, be ready to run.

There needs to be more details. Then you will get something great, probably not from me though.

You could do the check thing, and in the "For:" or "Memo" section write something completely humiliating.

Buy some peanut butter, remove said peanut butter from the jar. Add coins to peanut butter and repack.
That or get a candle, melt it down and add the coins and reform the candle with the coins in it.

I think the act of taping the change might be more time consuming than tearing it off.

You could rip a $20 into half, mail him half of it and the first clue towards finding the other half.

Now this is creative. I really like the idea of forming something around the coins. Jello might be fun, he could see them all floating around in there!

Bah, just saw you're in Canada. I'm not sure how they handle it, but in the US, if a dollar bill is ripped in half, it can be taped together...and if a merchant won't take it, you can go to a Federal Reserve Bank for an exchange.

They just got Netscape and Prodigy. Bryan Adams and Jesus Jones paid for it.
The latter is a convert to Canadaism. |

Well, it is a hockey pool so, you could freeze the money in a big block of ice then. Although, you'll need to freeze a 1/2 a block, put the coins down and then finish the freeze so they are in the middle.

I like the thematic tie-in, but logistically this is not as ideal as peanut butter, wax, or jello. Recovering the coins would be as simple as letting the block melt in a sink and then scooping them out. I'm really getting on board with the peanut butter.

peanut butter is good. melt it partially in a big can and then put the coins in and then let it thicken up again.
maybe you could use something like an empty water-jug or something of that size? and fill it with a ton of peanut butter and the coins. i'm thinking a real shitload of peanut butter. |

i think you want the volume of the peanut butter to make attempts to manipulate it difficult, that's the best idea.
OR bake brownies with laxatives inside them. put the coins inside the brownies and hopefully he'll be like "oh well i might as well eat the brownies and spit out the coins" and voila! this works best if it's only a couple brownies so he'd eat them all.

OK, first you need to either be married or living with a chick you're sharing expenses with, and then you need to either have an operation (one or both of you) or use protection and be REALLY careful when you have sex.

There are two downsides to the "embarrassing item refund" gag:
1) Although it is convertible to cash, I'm not sure it would truly be considered payment. 2) In order to force him into being embarrassed returning the item, I'd have to purchase the thing, which would be equally embarrassing.

Take a shit in a box and instead of playing in it, drop two rolls of quarters in there and give it to him.
