Messing with people's headsTheophilous Thunderwulf says: What have you done to fuck with people? Was it a long, carefully planned piece of psychological warfare, or do you favour quick, off-the-cuff comments that confuse the terminally gullible? Have you been dicked with, and only realised many years later? Are you being dicked right now? Tell us everything.

A few years ago, when such things weren't very commonwas travelling abroad with my wife, and we hired a VW Golf which had controls for the stereo on the steering wheel.
I told her the stereo reacted to hand gestures, and was doing complicated finger pointing at the head unit, while flicking the buttons on the steering wheel.
She naturally wanted a go, and was gesticulating wildly at the stereo - one in every 5 times or so, I'd change the track or alter the volume, just to keep her interested.
Kept that up for 3 days. I got bored in the end with having to wave at the thing every time I wanted to change something, and told her.

Hand gesturesMy wife believed something similar for years.
On most Vauxhalls you turn on the interior light by pushing in the headlamp knob.
I persuaded my wife you turned on the light by waving your hand in front of it.
She never quite believed me but it always worked and she didn't suss it for ages.
What made this even more unbelievable is that it was in her car and it only worked when I was driving!
