A practical joke involving twisting a staple into a 3D triangluar shape so that when thrown on the ground, a pointy part will always stick up. Can be thrown into the back of peoples' shoes when they are leaning forward and distracted. Will produce a sharp pain in the inflicted and much anger towards the inflicter.
