Not really. After about 15 minutes it just peels off the skin and the fingers are free again. Just don't panic and wait. And no, that's not an invitation to be careless and get that stuff on more sensitive parts like eyelids or (god forbid!) any more private parts.

That works, if you didn't stick your fingers together or to other material. As I did...

It should always work with a little patience. It's the oily stuff secreted by your skin which you leave as fingerprints. After some time there is enough of that stuff under the glue to nullify its cohesion to the skin.

One of my completely infantile colleagues has bought himself a new batch of firecrackers, the pull string type[^] (I don't know the correct technical term for them)... So now things are exploding left and right.
He's taped them to chairs so that they explode when you pull out the chairs. Also to most doors and drawers in the building.
I was lucky and "disarmed" the one under my chair (see link above), but others have had less luck, and so far 4 people have bought it. The whole building is smelling of burnt powder!
The other day, an innocent and unsuspecting cleaning lady was the victim of one as well...
Has anybody else got "jokers" in their office???

I have two. Two completely reasonable people, when took singularly. When they both are in the office though (90% of time, and it is an open space)... It's 3 years I'm using all of my resources to try to not kill either one of them.

I also have two. The other one is a little more nerdy.
I HATE the standard whistling Samsung "you've got text message" sound SO MUCH! So every time he gets a text message (and I hear the sound), I yell at him to turn off his friggin volume when he's at work (of course he doesn't)
So just to annoy me, he built a setup with a Raspberry Pi, a speaker and a motion detection sensor (to detect if I was sitting in my chair), and hid it under the roof plate just above my head. There it would sit and play the "Text message" sound at random intervals.
I never imagined such an elaborate setup, so I assumed that he had somehow gotten access to my computer and installed some kind of malware. I went through every single file on the computer, but didn't find anything.
It took me two friggin days before I noticed a piece of scotch tape above my head holding the sensor (the rest was well hidden). I was completely going out of my mind.
Like with you, the two jokers normally go at each other, but it seems like the rest of us are now to be included in the festivities...

A few years ago one of my coworkers hid a noise maker between someone's cube wall and the building wall for several months. No motion detector though, it was manually triggered by a wired button from a few cubes down the hall.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

BTW: I've got myself one of these[^], so the next joker that messes with me gets to taste that... I've tested it on my own computer, and it works like a charm!

Yes, the occasional practical joke keeps things fun But you have to be careful who you prank, some of the guys always retaliate and escalate and won't stop if they aren't the winner. We have rules that we don't do anything harmful either.

No, in that case, it would have been "It's been a shìtty morning..."

Many, many years ago, one of my colleagues was in the Territorial Army and was away from work for a week, during which time we completely sabotaged his desk...
Clingfilm stuff over the phone dial (it was a real rotary phone dial)
Mouthpiece of phone off, cardboard in, back together - many shouted conversations of fun!
Removed the arms from his chair and stuck on with tape - so they lasted having the chair moved, but not when he leant on them to sit.
Put his in/out trays on pencils (the round type) and a piece of string from teh back of them, to the back of his draw - pull out the draw and the in tray went everywhere.
the two pieces of resistance, as they say:
Sent a telegram saying our pools syndicate had won (it had - we won about three pounds from memory) several thousand pounds each
With the help of the HR department, faked his payslip to have an additional week's pay instead of taking a week's pay off!
Oh! the fun when he bought the drinks on his windfalls!

There's a lot of good stuff in there. Too bad that it can't be used nowadays with cell phones and paperless offices...

Back in the day, when the Intellipoint software had an option to change the mouse orientation, I managed to rotate everyone's mouse orientation by 90 degrees, to cause much confusion.
I actually travelled 100 miles early in the morning to do it when no one would suspect it was me, and it was on April Fool's day, if that's any excuse.
Turned up as usual, on a Monday morning, half-hour late and no-one had managed to fix it yet.

I'm not sorry to say that I'd respond to a practical joke like that with a practical attempt to get my boot up his @rse in as painful a way (to him) as possible.

Wow, gee this brings back memories.
I had a mate in high-school that was extremely studious, courteous and generally speaking - wouldn't say "boo" to a mouse. Boy oh boy, how appearances can be deceiving..
For the last lesson of Physics in year 12, he'd planned something with similar devices too. (they're sold as 'party poppers' here - the one's that resemble the shape of a champagne bottle. They contain the devices you show, but also have some streamers in them too)
The blackboards in the classroom were sliding units, 3 one-in-front of the other. You'd pull them all down to the bottom, write on one and then slide it up to the top of the track. He asked me to watch the corridor during recess so he could slip inside the room and "set up a little joke". Knowing John as well as I did, I figured it'd be pretty tame and obliged.
Since we were the next class to use the room, I not only had the pleasure of imagining what shenanigans he got up to, but also of anticipating the result. Remember, I still had absolutely no idea what he'd done..
About 15 minutes into the class the first board was filled-up and our poor teacher thrust it to the top of the rails with a gentle push. *BANG!* 20 startled heads looked up from their desks at the source of the noise, only to discover a falling cloud of streamers and that he'd raided his dad's collection of gentleman's magazines the night before and staring back at us was the centerfold of a Penthouse.
The look of horror on our teacher's face was priceless, as was the fact that the girls were laughing as much if not more than the guys were. I was prime suspect #1 but without any proof nothing further was done about it.

In later years, I discovered (the hard way ) the fun that can be had by putting sticky-tape over the optical sensor of computer mice. Fun that was only made 'better' by drawing on the black rubber mouse wheel with gel-ink.
"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life." - John Lennon
