The Sneaky Cards
An Australian kid named Harry Lee (clever alias?) recently developed a brilliant game designed to "spread the seeds of sneakiness and espionage." I love it already.
Harry took ordinary index cards and turned them into "Sneaky Cards," which he tucked into his classmates' pockets, binders, and books. The cards came in a range of colors, and each one challenged the recipient with a dare of sorts. According to Harry's explanation (which you can find here) . . .
BLUE cards test your audacity and chutzpah.
YELLOW cards require sneakiness and espionage skills.
RED cards involve finding things - and not just objects.
GREEN cards are about goodwill and giving to others.
PURPLE cards will plague your brain with puzzles.
ORANGE cards challenge you to create art with purpose.
SILVER cards are information cards.
Even more awesome? When Harry hunted down the cards he'd distributed, he found they had all been passed along multiple times. Even the school's teachers got involved!
Harry Lee, you are now an honorary member of the Irregulars!

Welcome to the Irregulars, Harry.

WOW WAy KEWl!!!!!!!1
wow i love stuff like this!!! i totally want to get some and spread them around my school!!!
AWESOME!!!!!!! where do i get them????!!!?!!?!!!
All: You don't need to buy them. MAKE them!
u have to make them yourself, thats where all the fun is, i just printed out a batch i typed out(handwriting is too recognizable) and I will disritibute them on monday!!!MWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! MWHAHAHHOHOHOHOHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!
cool, would he be mad if i did that?...
i need examples of them to make some so i can slide them into peoples lockers. oh and someone at my school was bullied so he made a hit list to let out his anger and got expelled for it.
i should make some of these. i wonder how many kids at my school would actually do it.
I'm about to type my own... I have a push-over bestie so I will let her in on the secret so she can be my fun-spreading henchman!!! WHEEE!
I think the Irregulars need to invent more cards and make a nice printable pdf. It's such a fun idea but he never got beyond the one card.
I'll try and make some! ...but it might take a while. You know how it is, so many devious plans, so little time...
Yay! More ways of having fun at school :D
@ vendetta
that is outrageous! surely the bullies should be expelled...?
whats wrong with a harmless hitlist...?
cool,i can so have one

Flawless victory. I wish that boy went to my school!
First: WOOP NEW IRREGULAR!!!
Second: Go the AUSSIE kid
that is so cool! I love this guy already (the little image of the fencers originally sparked my love for him)...we DEFINITELY should try this :D
I made two of these today. One for me, and one for my sister. I put one in my friend Jen's bag, and I waited to see if she saw it. I'm not sure if she did, but I'm going to make another card for tomorrow to try again. And ask her if she got it/passed it on. It was actually quite hard to find the right moment to slip it in her bag....
WELCOME, HARRY! i praise you for your genius :3
heh, i sometimes go around school and drop off letters to hogwarts and such in random lockers :D
I agree w/ everyone here!
I WANT SOME!!!!!!!!
(except maybe not the physical ones)
This is so, so, SO cool. I am IN LOVE WITH THESE.
Darn I want to do that but I would probably get suspended. My school can't do anything fun. I wrote this kid a Hogwarts letter, but he said it was creepy even though it wasn't - all I wrote was the supplies list and the dress code. Do you find that creepy in any way? - and went to the middle school principal. I had to run down there and tell everyone that I wrote the letter. Talk about a kill joy. I was going to "ghost" people for Halloween, but someone would probably tell the headmaster >:-(
i made them and at this moment they are circulating the school. for the orange i had people draw random abstract art and leave it around school and guess what has been turning up in every classroom......
I tried this. the kids at my school screamed " Who did this?!? Who. Did. This? This is so stupid!" The kids at my school are soooooo boring!
