You could also:
Get in an isolation tank (kinda difficult to see how they'd manage that one, but hey).
Put on a blindfold, earmuffs and the classic a peg on the nose. Simple but effective. ;)
Hire a lawyer to sue reality for not conforming to your expectations (may also be a little difficult, as you'd need to comunicate the reason succinctly).

Ways to end a story (badly).

e.g.
It was all a dream
They were dead all along
They met up in the afterlife through the power of friendship and only when they're all together they can pass to heaven.

In a sense, they've already done this with "Ways to End a Movie". However, that was a Season 1 video.

How about a follow up to 'Ways to get a Ticket'. This time, as 'Ways to avoid a Ticket'

My only idea at the moment, however, is 'Stunt Double' with Matt hiding behind a tree, and Tim walking out dressed the same as Matt.

So Paul would have to grow and shave a beard at least a dozen times just for one video? I doubt that's feasible.

Also, I suspect the Sam Raimi would lead to injuries.

Ok, I just had a massive stroke of genius, tossing ideas around... In a dream? ... With a dream version Graham? I may need help. But anyway, I think that they are awesome ideas (and so did dream Graham :P) Ways to find Paul! A bit of context. Note: This is literally insane. Like, 100% crazy.

Note: None of this actually happened, this is all a fabrication of my insane mind.

Basically, story goes, Paul seems like the quiet guy who just seems to listen in on conversations and occasionally offer an idea. So, Paul was sitting in a corner, leaning on a shelf, listening to me and Graham talk. A few minutes pass, and I turn to Paul to ask his opinion, and he's gone! I come in closer, and Paul has managed to worm his way halfway behind the shelf!

So, I thought, why not think of a "Ways to find Paul"? He's the kind of guy I could just see (clearly :shock:) getting in odd places at random times, and I think it would be great to see a video of him just in the background of conversations, zoom in on the conversation, pan back out, and he's managed to get stuck somewhere hilarious.

PS. Ways to awkwardly dance got "Genuis" from Graham. Well... Dream. Graham. I think I need to stop watching 3 hours of LRR a day :?

EDIT: And I just had a stroke of genuis with the Sam Rami. IT CAN'T FIND HIM! (and takes it out on Matt?)

Ways to abuse a portal gun.
I imagine a shop worker restocking shelves (for some reason he's putting twinkies there), and Matt or Graham is pulling boxes out from the back.
Also, in the breakroom or generally mucking about at work, seeing the manager heading to your cubicle and portal-ing your way back.
