Ok, we know that Vader's voice within the suit is different from the voice he naturally produces. We also know from listening to numerous communication devices that the Empire and general whole of Star Wars have the technology to limit distortion, so to me that means that the voice is deliberate, which makes me wonder...can the settings be changed? Maybe the chest buttons?

And if so...could some prankster idiot with a death wish have everyone experience to glory of Chipmunk or Muted Vader?

Also, Darth Vader prank ideas anyone? (assuming you don't fear death)

Set the chestpiece controls to Ear Rape levels and laugh when Vader's voice causes several high-ranking Imperials eardrums to explode in a shower of gore.

Personally I'm for muting him and having him point, shake in anger, and start choking officers that snicker.

But don't let the volume be the only way...I'm for programming all the mouse droids to savagely attack his feet

Perhaps a Jar Jar modulator?

Convert anything he says into beeps and boops like R2.

Come up with a clever program to take whatever he says and make it sound like he's either a) a stereotypical pirate ("Yaarrgh! I be disturbed by your lack of faith me hearty!", b) a tereotypical stoned hippie ("wow man, you should really of dropped out of lightspeed farther away, but it's all totally cool") or c) a stereotypical drunk Glaswegian ("ach, y' twat.").

Then watch the hilarity fromt he safety of a security monitor. On another ship. In another star system.

Batbale growling. Are you speaking bat?

AS far as I know, the gettings can't be changed. And there is no distortion on his voice. Vader's vocal cords and larynx were hidiously scarred when he was cooked on Mustafar, and the Emperor gave him a cheap vocabulator.

Now, as for jokes against Vader.

Spray Paint his Tie Fighter Bright Pink
Bumper Sticker for his shuttle - I'd rather be crusing in a Seperatist ship
If you can somehow manage it - swap the crystal in his lightsaber to make it appear a nice cheerful green
Dye his armor into "Hello Kitty" while he's sleeping.
Whoopie Cushion on the seat of his Tie Fighter.

Found it! I was inspired by a list I did a long time ago in a power outtage...I thought I had lost it

Here are a bunch of my ideas

(WHS = While he's sleeping)

1. Change the pitch of his helmet to "Alvin and the Chipmunks" while he's asleep.
2. Turn off his helmet speakers.
3. WHS, drill a hole in the back of his helmet, and when he wears it, take a can of whipped cream and empty it in his head.
4. Paint pretty flowers on his helmet (extra points if he's wearing it).
5. Start pressing his chest buttons.
6. Make the machine put his helmet on backwards.
7. If you're not a force-user, try to do the "push" or the "mind trick" near him.
8. Get drunk, declare yourself "Dark LADY of the Sith" and flirt heavily with him. Extra points if you're a man or mention him "not being over" Padme.
9. Spray paint his goggles black.
10. Change his lightsaber color to pink.
11. Tickle him.
12. Accuse him of being a rebel spy.
13. Stick magnets on him.
14. Replace his helmet WHS with either a stormtroopers, or a clown mask.
15. Hug him.
16. Better yet, a GROUP hug...
17. ....with Ewoks...
18. Make his helmet sound like Steven Hawking
19. Paint big eyeballs on his helmet goggles
20. Step on his cape...repeatedly
21. Fail him....even if its just pressing a BUTTON.
22. Laugh at him when he issues an order.
23. Program mouse droids to attack him
24. Take out his lightsaber, turn it on, and wave it around like an idiot.
25. Dress up as a Tusken Raider (Sand-person) and mock-attack him.
26. Do the "Basketball Defense" posture  at him at a doorway.
27."Pimp out" his suit
28. Shoot suction cup darts at him
29. Just TRY to sneak up on him.
30. Grab his SHINY METAL ASS.
31. Refer to the Force as the "push"
32. Try to cup check him
33. Bring a small child. Ask him why he didn't celebrate "bring your child to work" day.
34. Reunite him with Jar Jar.
35. Mock imitate his breathing.
36. KEY HIM
37. Secretly pin a happy face button on him
38. Call him Darthy
39. Call him Annie
40. Tie cans to his cape
41.  Nail his cape to the floor
42. Carry his cape like a bride
43.  Post-it notes.... 
44.  Offer him things to eat or drink persistantly
45. "......not even with a straw?" 
46. Take out the battery pack in his lightsaber
47. Change the length setting to one inch.
48. Hide in his Tie-Advanced with him
49. Put walnuts in his chair....*CRUNCH*
50. And finally for the holidays....Sit on his lap and discuss what you want for Christmas...

I was bored in a powerless December, what can I say?

You were bored...and if someone actually did that, suicidal...that would not end well. It would be hilarious, but it wouldn't end well.

Going down in legend like that would be worth it, especially if you capture it on camera and send it across the Holonet. Viral video!

The Rebels would certainly get a kick out of it. I can see it now: "Darth Vader...Dark Lord of the Pink Lightsaber!"

Man, the Rebels would find that hilarious! And his helmet transmits video of what he is looking at right? Would it be possible to make it play something...like say the SW equivalent to Barney? Now THAT would be hilarious!

Oh boy...if you could get transmissions from him, you could almost broadcast a punk'd style show of all the hilarity, and hear all of his frustration
