1.0 out of 5 stars
Not Practical @ all,
By Ronnie Deluca (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Get Even: The Complete Book Of Dirty Tricks (Hardcover)
This book is completely un-useable! I wanted a book I could use to play pranks on my friends and enemies - this publication contains "crimes" which no one in their right mind would endeavor to achieve without ending up in the can. It seems like Hayduke wrote it because there is a lack of "practical joke" books on the market and he knew it would sell regardless of the content - which is inane and mindless. An example of a totally ridiculous one is spreading some "human feces" on bread and feeding someone a [pooh] sandwhich. This is about as good as the book gets - and who is going to try that one?! I'm so upset that I actually purchased this God-awful book. Advice for all you pranksters - If you must buy a book in order to learn practical jokes you can actually "play" get The Prankster's Ultimate Handbook by Erik Buckman. The gags within are all playable, enjoyable and it is truly a very funny read as well.

This review is from: Get Even: The Complete Book Of Dirty Tricks (Hardcover)
Like the other Hayduke books, whatever relevance this one may have had has long since passed. Pretty much outdated and useless, and not even very entertaining. Go with Victor Santoro instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The book is good but sometimes goes too far.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Get Even: The Complete Book Of Dirty Tricks (Hardcover)
The book is extremely helpful in revenge techniques but sometimes what he suggests goes too far and could end up killing your 'mark'. Don't take everything word for word. Understand the spirit of the trick and not nessesarily the actual dirty trick. It was still a great book
