If your phones can unscrew.
A fun little trick is over a month tape 2p coins on the inside until it's very heavy, then one day take them out. It'll be so much lighter that when they answer the phone they'll hit themselves in the head with it.

quite apart from this clearly being lolwakilarious
unless you're some kind of muscle-wasted spazmo, that's never going to work. You couldn't possibly get enough 2ps in a phone reciever to make a difference.

It's not about your ability to lift it, it's about your expectation of weight.

Chompy
I have a large tin in my home office. It contains, at various times, somewhere between nothing and around £50 in coppers and silvers, so weighs between 200g or so and about 3-4kg.

I never know how much is in it until I open it or pick it up. I have a fairly wide window for expectation of weight. However, I have never, ever, hit myself in the face or anywhere else with it. Because I'm not an epic spastic.

I hope this helps.

Much less trouble to tie the two bits of handset cord together
so they pick up the whole phone with the handset. Who knows,they might even smack themselves in the head with it lolololololololololol.

I tell you
If I ever have the misfortune* to spend a significant amount of time in an office environment with Chompy, I'm treating every piece of office equipment with the respect normally accorded to a testy scorpion balanced on a claymore mine.

*In the spirit of being fair, this is more "misfortune" in the terms of "ending up in an NHS office in MK" rather than being an abuse of the boy Chompy.

do you often lift that tin to your ear while doing other things?

It's almost liked you've missed the epically obvious piece of baiting going on here.
Almost.

I even bothered to comment.
