I discovered this evening that someone has built an ugly a$$ house at the same height and right on the border between our properties. I asked him politely if he would consider moving his house down a couple hundred meters. He responded in a very dickish manner. So, I surrounded the castle with an enormous sphere; textured on the inside to look like the sky. On the outside, I put the most horrifying image I could think of on a repeating pattern.

He now has gigantic 75 meter Justin Biebers looming over his house.

Yes, I have Teh Evil and I know how to use it!

You better hope there are no 3500 meter tall kids with sidewalk chalk lurking around.

He casually pulled out his wallet and starting looking through it and then it suddenly burst into flames. Best thing ever.

That IS cool. I love magic like that.

A good magician is always prepaired, which is cool. Until he sits down and his wallet explodes catching his pants on fire.

Oh, wait. That would still be cool!

There's a similar trick where you light your business card on fire, blow it out, and it's completely unburnt.

That's what I said!

Likewise, you can treat paper cash similarly. I tried to do so once back in High School, when I fancied myself a magician. I wound up burning real money, and scorching a section of the kitchen floor tile. My mom strongly encouraged me to find a new hobby.

A friend of mine pulls the 'burning wallet' trick every once in a while on unsuspecting noobs.

But do you remember doing virtually everything?
