Why would you want to do that? As a professional, you should let the current employers know why are you leaving them (the real reason, whatever it is). Then, you can also say, if the issues I mentioned were fixed, I might come back and be happy here.
On a lighter note, you might plan a funeral of your employee ID and invite those concerned.

It's simply time to move on. He is not interested in fixing anything, otherwise he would already have done something in the last 20 years. I don't intend to argue with him about how to run this place, but nobody says I must stay end endure it any longer.

I think being cold and harsh is enough. The deks turning point is well past now, since you're leaving so no need to get enraged. Pranks and similar are never good, you're a responsible adult AND you're leaving... why bother?

I don't really intend to do anything except to hand over that piece of paper. There are a few more people here who are still looking for a way out. They are happy for everyone who finally comes so far, but they also know that things become another notch worse for them. Some silly ideas what to do when you finally manage to escape are ok, if they make them feel a little better.

Well then, bind the boss, soak everything in gasoline, leave him a saw to free himeself and set everything alight. then walk out not looking back while lighting a cigarette from the burning office (even if you don't smoke.).

My first employer had some interesting tasks to do from this[^] perspective. 
The handcuff would be attached to one of the fins, keeping him nice and warm in the rocket's exhaust while he is on his way to the stratosphere.

I can think of plenty of fun ideas. The problem is that most of them would get you punched in the face, sued, or worse. I've often had the fantasy of quitting my job in such a "creative" manner, but so far (35 years and counting), sanity has prevailed. 
The best way to handle this is in a professional manner. While you may think that you will never work for (or with) your current boss again, "Never" is a long time. You also don't want to ruin your reputation in the field.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

All the best for your new career.
Over the years, I've realized two things - In professional life there are no permanent friends or foes. And the world is indeed round.

As others have said, be the adult, keep it civil.
When I turned in my notice at my last position, the manager said, "I don't understand..."
Blah, blah, blah...
I never thought she'd leave, either, but, a few years later, she left and is now working in the building next to me; different company, but who knows what may happen?

Many, but as others said, Don't.
The worst thing you can do to your boss is a big silly smile from ear to ear showing him how happy you are to leave.

I wore a Looney Tunes tie to work one day and my boss asked me why I chose that tie and I told him; "This is a Mickey Mouse organization, I just thought it appropriate."

Definitely DON'T!
After a long last-day lunch (we used to do that back then) a colleague replied to his boss's farewell speech with some very choice words.
One phone call, and he didn't start at his new job on Monday. Or ever.
