'I've hidden photos of Nicolas Cage around my office for years – no one has noticed' – The Mirror
An anonymous office worker has confessed to secretly placing printed pictures of Nicolas Cage around his place of work for two-and-a-half years – and nobody has noticed them
An office worker has been secretly hiding photos of Nicolas Cage at work for years.
They took to r/confessions on Reddit this week to admit to the bizarre prank, explaining it has been going on for the past two-and-a-half years. "I have, for the past 2.5 years, been hiding printed photographs of Academy Award winning actor Nicolas Cage throughout my office," they wrote.
The post explained how it "started so small", with them placing a picture of Cage "crazy eyes and all" in the middle of a 10-page briefing that had been pinned to the office bulletin board "for as long as I've worked there". They wrote: "To this day, no one has noticed."
Following this initial success, the prankster "decided to keep doing it" and will now hide a picture of Cage somewhere in the office whenever "it's slow or everyone is away at a conference".
"I know for sure that there is one behind the calendar, and another taped to the back of a bookcase. There's a few in the conference room, I'm sure, and in the copy room and kitchenette. I think there's at least one in the director's office, though, if there isn't, that will soon be remedied," they said.
They went on to admit: "I don't know how many there are, and I don't remember where they are hidden." The prankster is also planning to leave the job in a few months, but promised not to tell anyone about the photos. "I plan to hide many, many more before I go," they said.
Reacting to the post, one Reddit user said: "This confession was worth waking up for this morning! 10/10 on the confession and work behind it." Another wrote: "This is the type of confession that I live for."
And amazingly, someone else claimed they had pulled off a similar prank with pictures of Cage. They wrote: "About 10 years ago, I worked at a small indie bookstore where I was alone 90% of the time & had free reign. I loved my job so much.
"Over the course of 3 years, I put little cutout photos of Nic Cage & various dinosaurs into random books around the place. I have no idea how many I ended up putting them in or what happened when people brought them home but it gave me a lot of joy."
