On boring weekends when you have nothing else to do, a good sense of humor can certainly come in handy. Making prank calls to your friends and other people in the neighborhood is a fun way to spend a good old boring weekend. All you need is a telephone and phonebook.
Prank call
Here are some great prank call ideas that will set you up for some good laughs.
Go over the phonebook and look for the usual names – Cook, Brown, White, Black, Rich and the likes. Use their names to make fun of them. For example you call the Brown residence and ask for Mr. Brown, if the wife picks up simply say “Can I speak with Mr. Brown please?” If she says he is not available and asks for a message, say “Nothing, I just wanted to ask if he really is brown just like his name says” then hang up. If Mr. Brown picks up, ask him right away if he really is brown just as his name says. If he gets mad, say “Please sir do not be mad, I simply want to know if you are brown because if you are white then you should change your name to Mr. White.” Then hang up. If you don’t get the confused and angry reaction you get on the first call, call again and do the same lines.
This prank idea can last you the whole day. The phonebook is flooded with simple and common names that you can use. If you come across a Mr. Cook in the phonebook, call the residence and start with a formal tone, “Hi, is this Mr. Cook?”, if the other person says yes, ask “Is this Mr. Cook of Woodrow Street?” Refer to their address so they won’t get suspicious right away. After the person says yes, say “Good! Can you whip up something scrumptious for me, I’m starving!” Then hang up.
Call the Rich residence and look for Mr. Rich. When Mr. Rich picks up, confirm and ask “Is this Mr. Rich?” if he says yes, say “If you really are Mr. Rich, can I borrow some money? I’m behind on my bills” and then hang up.
You can also search for the number of a person whose first name is Robin. Call and ask “Hi is Robin there?” When the person says he is not home and asks for a message, say “this is Batman. The bat mobile broke down and I need his help. Please have him call me as soon as he gets home.” Then hang up.
Prank calls are fun but make sure you don’t become offensive. Keep it light and funny just enough to annoy the person on the other line but never insult or harass them. Have fun!
