Relatively direct situation and question...my girlfriend and i have been going back and forth with practical jokes, so i've decided that i'm going to newspaper her room (crumple up the pieces and fill her room). I figured its not too bad, plus theres a bunch of garbage cans outside her room in the hall to get rid of it after... my question is, does anyone have any idea how many newspapers i would need to fill a room that's about 30'x20'? I'm looking to fill it about waist high. So far i have a stack about 3 feet high, but i feel like i'm going to need ALOT more. Google has been no help thus far...

1. Calculate the area of the room(since its roughly 30x20, assuming an 8ft ceiling thats 4800 ft)
2. Crumple up one newspaper and see what it makes.
 
Mind you, you will only need to fill up 1/2 of the room too. 4800 sounds like alot, but it shouldnt be too bad. Try using those boxes UPS gives out.

Crumple up 1 newspaper and measure the volume it fills in ft^3

Divide 1800 ft^3 (the volume you want to fill) by that number and you'll have the number of papers.

A rough gestimate would be 1 cubic foot per newspaper, which would mean you would need 1800 newspapers.

dave- its a 2 to 3 person dorm room, but since the other person that was supposed to room with her this semester withdrew from school, she has the room to herself. the measurements may be a little exagerated, as i don't know off the top of my head what they are, but i figure its better to over estimate.

arthur and ssok- that sounds like a good idea

Bonus points if you get her and her roomates at the same time.

Interpret that in any way that you'd like.

From my experience recently packing an apartment and moving, it's more newspapers than you're prepared to pay for. We went through 15 copies of the Sunday Wa-Post just to pad a few boxes. I can't imagine how much you'd spend to do a whole room.

Most colleges have some kind of newspaper available for free.

Plan B if you cant get enough papers. Just paper her walls and all her stuff. The when she rips it down to reveal a full wall portrait of her drawn in poop it'll be a surprise.

Trick her into eating her own parents.

If she has her own bathroom, give her the ol' Carne Tsunami.

Or poop in the tank of her toilet.

Carne Tsunami = Go into the bathroom, pretend to need to poop so you are in there for a while with a cover story. 

In your pocket is one beef bullion cube. 

Unscrew the shower head, most of them don't need a wrench anyway. 

Unwrap the bullion cube, cram it up into the shower tube, and screw the shower head back on. 

How shower makes someone smell like beef for days.

while we're on the poop subject, reverse kangaroo is always a winner and usually works on tankless toilets

I will save you all the effort... From urbandictionary

New Australian for using a toilet backwards, and leaving skidmarks on the front side of the bowl.
