I have come into ownership of several small/medium fire extinguishers.
What to do?
Will deliver pics sooner or later, possibly even a video if I feel like dusting off the old Sony AVCHD camera...

| Obvious would be using them with a skateboard/chair etc. Are they CO2 ones? If you you could probably freeze things with them.

If class C they are the powder kind and won't do much other than produce a gassy smoke cloud. Don't breathe it in.
More fun, buy a block of dry ice 10 - 15 pound block is about $12 in my area. Wear gloves as touching can cause burns. Chip off about a cup full. Put into a 16 - 20 oz plastic soda bottle. Add a cup or two of water. Put the cap on quickly, and throw it or run like hell.
CAUTION THE BOTTLE WILL EXPLODE!!!!

Hah, we did this in physics. It wasn't really part of our course but the chemistry department had some left over and our teacher got it ^_^
There isn't a huge amount you can do with fire extinguishers. You could probably make a small rocket or use it for propulsion but that's really it.

Ok, so don't breath it in. That's a given. Me and mates are having a bonfire in a few weeks, with some crazy shit, so I will save it as a safety precaution. If we don't need them during the night, I will see what I can do about making a rocket out of one...
EDIT: Just checked them all out. I have:
1 x 4.3KG Dry Chemical AB(E)
1 x 4.3KG Dry Chemical B(E)
2 x 7.9KG Dry Chemical AB(E)
2 x 14.6KG Dry Chemical AB(E)
So, they are all dry chemical. Pity, I would of loved to soak someone :/

Save it and use it when necessary like the day your BBQ runs amok.

Welcome to adulthood. That is the responsible thing to do, even it's because you can't really do much else with the chemical ones.
Seriously though, consider buying some dry ice instead. With Halloween coming up I know they sell it at my local grociers, you can have lot's of fun with that stuff. Always wear gloves when handling it though. Don't want frostbite.
