List of pranks that Jim has pulled on Dwight

I am trying to think of all of the pranks Jim has pulled on Dwight, and I found this list. Are there any that are missing.

Jim gets a hold of Andy's cell phone and while Pam is playing "look out", Jim climbs up and opens one of the ceiling tiles. Then he throws the phone in the ceiling above Andy's desk. Now, Jim and Pam just keep calling the number watching Andy get more and more upset.

While Michael is on vacation, Jim is running the staff meeting. Dwight brings out a recorder claiming that Michael wants a transcript of the meetings. Jim begins the meeting normally and then says: Dwight, what are you doing? You can't take your pants off in the office! It's making me uncomfortable. This is sexual harrassment. (Dwight looks as the recorder horrified) Oh my God! He's got a knife! Let the record show that Dwight K Shrute is now completely nude holding a plastic knife to Stanley's neck.

Michael, Dwight, Andy, and Jim are at Benihana's sitting at the sushi bar. But there are only 3 seats together so Dwight ends up at the other end of the table where he can't hear. Finally, he yells to Jim to find out what their talking about. Jim tells him that the waitress is trying to explain how to correctly butcher a goose but she's having a hard time coming up with. Dwight starts yelling at the waitress to get her attention and come to him. When she does, to her horror, Dwight begins explaining the correct way to butcher a goose.

For the past few months, Pam has been sening Dwight letters from the CIA. And the CIA is considering Dwight for a top secret mission. She has made a classified file which has the application she made him fill out along with the list of every secret he promised he never ever tell. Jim, as the CIA, contacts Dwight and tells him that he is needed in Langley immediately for training and an ice cream social with the other agents. A helicopter will pick you up. Dwight is waiting at the helopad when he gets a text message: You have been comprised. Abort mission. Distroy phone. And with that Dwight throws his phone in the river.

Prank pulled on Andy: - Andy asks Jim's advice about hitting on Pam. Jim gives him some really bad advice such as "Pam's likes": playing banjo with a high pitch voice, fisbee competitions, hunting, six flag commericals with the old man, and speaking pig latin. Andy does each of these and it fails miserably.

Jim stares at Dwight's forehead making him think at first he's got a smudge. When Jim refuses "to meet Dwight's eyeline", Dwight gets completely flustered and bumps into his desk.

Jim stole some stationary from Dwight before he left Scranton and now he faxes Dwight "messages from future" with warnings about what's going to happen. He Faxes Dwight:

Dwight,
At 8 AM today someone poisons the coffee. Do NOT drink the Coffee. More instructions to follow.
Cordially,
Future Dwight

Dwight receives this and then tackles Stanley who is about to sip his coffee

Prank pulled on Andy: - At the Stanford branch, Jim's desk chair squeeks. So when Karen got up, he replaced her chair with his. She notices right away and warns him that as soon as he gets up she is taking her chair back. In his chair, he goes to the copier, ect...not wanting to give it up. Afterwhile, Andy gets up and comes back to his desk. Now he has the squeeky chair.

Jim and Pam would hum in a high pitch and get Dwight to make an appointment with a doctor. Pam called it "Pretendenitis".

Jim "allegedly" put Dwight's stapler in Jell-o. When questioned about it, Jim was eating Jell-o. Later, Jim encases Michael's "World's Best Boss" coffee mug in a Jell-o mold. When Jim transfers to the Stanford branch, he puts Andy's stapler in jell-o. When Andy sees this, he freaks out and completely over-reacts. Jim looks horrified when the camera pans to him.

When Dwight asks Jim to be in an alliance together against the downsizing, Jim takes the opportunity to seal Dwight in a box in the warehouse so he can over hear the "secret meeting" about the downsizing. He also convinces him to dye his hair blonde and spy on the Stanford branch.

Jim and Pam submitted Dwight's resume to Monster.com, Craig's List, and Google.com. They were hoping Dwight would find something out of state.

Jim had convinced Dwight that it was Friday when really it was Thursday.

He replaced all of Dwight's pens and pencils with crayons.

Jim makes Dwight think that it is a cool trend for men to carry purses. And since he is smitten with the lady selling them, he should go buy one. Dwight comes out with a black reptile skinned purse.

Jim put all of Dwight's desk supplies inside the vending machine. Things like his name plate, stapler, pen cup and of course his wallet. Dwight goes to get a snack and notices this. Pam walks in and decides what she really wants is a pen cup. So she buys it. Without his wallet, Dwight can't buy back his supplies. Helpful Jim gives him a bag full of nickles.

He paid all the other employees $5 to call Dwight "Dwayne" all day.

Jim placed a bloody glove in Dwight's desk drawer and tried to convince him that he committed a murder. Dwight was not convinced because he believed Jim was the real murderer.

Jim has Dwight's badge read "Security Threat". He also has Dwight's middle name as "Fart" instead of "Kurt". When Dwight has his badge redone, Jim suggests they get their picture taken together. That way, they could meet in the parking lot every morning and come through the door together.

He told Dwight that there was an abandoned child in the women's bathroom. When Dwight went in to save the child he saw Meredith on the toilet.

He slowly placed a bunch of nickles in Dwight's phone headset over a period of time so that Dwight would get used to increased weight. After a few days he took them all out so when Dwight lifted the receiver using more force then required, expecting it to be heavier, he hit himself in the head with it.

When Dwight wins saleman of the year, and has to give a speech, Jim offers to help explaining he majored in Public Speaking. He tells Dwight that history's best speakers were not joketellers but passionate. He should wave his arms in the air and pound his fists many times. As examples, Jim has downloaded a bunch of speeches by famous dictators, including Mussollini...just to help Dwight get started.

Jim placed a computer macro on Dwight's computer to type "diapers" instead whenever Dwight tried to type his name.

In classic form, Jim moved Dwight's desk an inch every time he went to the bathroom, so that at the end of the day it was two feet closer to the door.

He also moved Dwight's entire desk into the Men's room. When Dwight finally found his desk, Jim called him with questions about the specials the company is running. So Dwight sat down and started to work.

Michael and Dwight are desparate to know who is gay and who isn't in the office once it is learned that Oscar is gay. Jim once told Dwight that there was a devise called a "gaydar" that would let someone know who was gay or straight. When Dwight calls Jim to find out how to get the product, Jim tells him that the store is sold out. A few days later, a package arrives for Dwight in the mail. Jim has sent him his very own "gaydar". It's completely inacurate and when Michael waves it over his "manly" area it beeps as if to say, you're gay.

Jim tells Dwight that ever since he was a kid he could move things with his mind. Obviously Dwight doesn't believe this and Jim must prove it. So Jim turns his chair and stares really hard at the coat rack then starts wiggling his fingers at it. All of a sudden, the coat rack begins to move. Pam winks at Jim and Jim continues his prank. Dwight is shocked and now begins to try to move things on his desk with his mind. We learn that Pam moved the coat rack with an umbrella that was near her desk.

Yeah, I think they expanded that list to include Andy, as those are pretty funny also since Andy doesn't handle things very well.

I believe the Gaydar device was just a metal detector correct?, hence the beeping over the groin (belt buckle, zipper area) of Michael?

That's correct.

The pranks are my favorite parts of the show.
