#20 Vent confetti is not safe

Although this is a funny prank, it is not a safe prank.

Some people did this one to me when my wife and I got married, but it clogged my A/C drain, causing gallons of water to accumulate. Then, whenever the A/C was running and I took a turn in the car, water would slosh into the passenger floorboard. It wasn't too bad at first, but eventually my floor board started flooding. I had to deal with the water with dozens of towels and even industrial dryers to try to prevent mold and mildew from growing in the car. A mechanic finally tracked down the problem, and he was able to clean out the A/C drain of all the confetti. It was pretty crazy.
