Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })It's the old Practical Joke of tricking some poor sap into smelling the flower on your shirt and you, via a hidden squeeze pump, squirt water from the flower into your friend's face. A typical stock gag for The Prankster and The Trickster. Related to Garden-Hose Squirt Surprise, where a garden hose is used instead of a flower. Examples: |

The Simpsons: In "Homie the Clown", Homer, dressed as Krusty, squirts Bart with a flower, and then the water bounces off onto Lisa in a bank shot. Homer explains that the gag was his major at clown college. "Fear of Flying" begins with the crowd at Moe's bar pranking Moe in various ways. Barney asks Moe if he wants to smell his lapel flower. Moe does, and Barney takes the opportunity to light Moe's tie on fire. In "Pulpit Friction", Marge finds her wedding dress has been switched with Krusty's clown suit. She squirts the flower and it shoots vodka into her mouth. |

One of the many ancient gags employed by the Fools' Guild in Discworld: In Men at Arms, the Guild greeter asks Nobby and Colon "It's a long shot, I know, but I don't suppose either of you gentlemen would like a sniff of my buttonhole?" They don't fall for it, and it's clear he never really expected them to, because no-one ever does. The flower squirts slightly as an involuntary reaction when he gets emotional. In Making Money, the Patrician's dignity is threatened by a practitioner of clown martial arts (sloshi), leading to the weirdest He's Got a Weapon! in the multiverse: |

MAD once ran a Don Martin strip called "Moses Through the Years". One section has a prankster friend try this on him (Rule of Funny in full force, for obvious reasons) only for him to "part" the offending stream. | |

The Ren & Stimpy Show: In "Circus Midgets", one of the midgets asks Ren to smell the flower on his shirt. Ren knows what's coming, but obliges anyway because he's thirsty. Unfortunately for him, instead of water, the flower contains a bee — with a wrench to hit him with! | |
