I don’t think ill ever grow old enough to get over prank calling. I may not be the one pranking only because I can’t help but laugh so hard. I have a friend who I consider the best prank caller. She can imitate any voice and not ruin a conversation (she won’t laugh until she hangs up). Our parents have been friends for generations and we visit each other’s families at night cause our dads like to drink so we end up pranking people we know.
One time we called a friend of ours and she pretended to be an officer. I know it sounds lame but it was really funny. Basically we called him and said this is officer (name) and I have been informed that you and your hooligan friends have been out on the night of (date) messing around with illegal drugs such as cocaine. You are being charged a $200 fine and if you don’t pay it you will be arrested. I know this sounds kind of bad cause we really scared him so we called him back a minute later to let him know it was us.
Another prank call was to a female friend of hers. My friend plays the guitar so she called this girl with a manly voice and played her guitar rhyming the girls name with random words and saying I love you. It was really funny. Eventually she also told her whose calling.
But I do give myself credit for one good prank. My friends were over and I called one of their boyfriends and told them their girlfriend burned her arm and that my mother and our other friend rushed her to the hospital while I sat home with my sisters. I knew that if my friends looked at me while I made this phone call I would laugh so I went outside and did it. The reason that it worked was because that same day we hung out with him before they came to my house. He wouldn’t believe me at first but I laugh a lot and when I didn’t give in, he fell for it. He called me back a second later and my friends told me not to answer but I did and I felt so bad that I told him I was just joking. He told me it was the best prank ever though.
I know in most the pranks I’m involved in, if they are serious, we always let the person know its us. The funny thing is just trying to change our voices and not laugh while thinking what type of prank to pull up.
People tell me to grow up even though they enjoy it too. Sorry but I can’t help it. There’s nothing wrong with pranking people you know just as long as if its serious to let them know it’s a prank.
If anyone has good phone pranks, let me know ;-)
Prank Calls

By ProgressiveUser - Posted on May 7th, 2008















I guess I fail to see the humor in telling someone their girlfriend was rushed to the hospital.
Though that first one, with the police officer, was pretty funny ;-)
if you want an idea for a really good prank, go here. :-)

i don't think its funny to tell someone that their girlfriend is rushed to the hospital. I only thought it was funny cause im a really bad pranker and that was the only one i pulled off.
I think it's completely ridiculous to tell someone their girlfriend is being rushed to the hospital. It's not funny, clever, and in no way is it a successful "prank."
I'm really annoyed that you're so proud of that.
I'm trying so hard not to be ridiculously annoyed at the completely irrational, mean, and horribly thought out prank, but it's difficult when you're so involved in your own success at a "prank" that you're willing to hurt others in the process.

I am about to be 19 and i still enjoy a prank call every once in awhile.
But i don't tell people other people got hurt because i have the kind of luck where i would kid around about it, but then it would come true. and i don't like worrying about people so i wouldn't want others to worry either.

The reason you feel this way is because pranks are meant to be funny, not cruel or worry-inciting.
You're completely right to not kid about things that would worry someone in any way. Telling someone they're getting a fine for cocaine? Funny, because it's in no way possible, even if it does freak out the recipient. Telling someone their dog died or that their girlfriend is being rushed to the hospital? Not funny at all.
Keep pranking. At least you're not trying to hurt people.

and besides that, i let him know it was me messing around right after. I would never purposely hurt someone with a prank. You make it sound as if i do this purposely but its not like i waited an hour to let him know, because by that time it would have been too late. I let him know a minute after we hung up.
And further, IN THIS SITUATION scaring someone by a ticket and a burned girlfriend had the same affect since both people were notified of the caller and the prank imediately after. Had I waited and not told him, ofcourse that would not be considered a prank (well at least not to me- i consider pranks to be funny and harmless).
I don't know if i made it clear in my blog, and if i didn't, thats my fault; but i was trying to say that everytime me or my friends pranked anyone, we immediately tell them if we know its serious. If it was something stupid like singing in a weird voice, obviously it wouldn't be necessary to call back.
Im not trying to hurt people.
I agree. Try calling your local department store and ask for Mannyhose, the male pantyhose, Short Johns, the underwear similar to Long Johns but shorter, or for velcro closure shoes in mens' size 13, color pink. Call the local restaurant with a fish tank and ask if you can buy the big guy that swims in circles. Have some fun livening up somebody's day instead of ruining it. If you call someone at work, they're being paid in the meantime and are probably enjoying telling their coworkers about the idiot on the line.

I just wanted to say how funny I find it that your username is the word I thought I coined on ProgressiveU. I call bloggers "ProgressiveUsers".
Anyway, to keep this comment on topic: I wouldn't be able to prank call people like that. I think I may be too nice. I might be able to prank close friends, but nothing as serious as saying someone's in the hospital. That's just..cruel.

Mind Control is Easier Than You Think
Yeah i agree it isn't a good thing to make people think that others are hurt so just a little advice keep pranking just not about people getting hurt. Even though it was harmless and you told them right after.. i hate worrying at all.

This is hillarious,I am not good at pranking because I laugh alot,I don't think I can finish even a statement while am imagining the reaction of the person am pranking.I have been pranked several times and this one I really felt stupid.My pal called and pretended to be from the school,the discipline office,earlier that day we had gone to our math professor office while he had gone out and because I was really freaking out I said totally the truth and that I was there with my pal,(i was such a sell out) I remeber I was so worried because it was my first week in that school,. later she called and said "I can't believe you can be honest more than Jesus" It was funny but not that time.
