Who is a Prankster?
Prankster is a person who does pranks on other people.
Prank Call
My friends and I love to pull pranks on each other every now and then. I have this one particular friend who gets off on our embarrassment. He was good at it too. I’d say he has honed that talent from years of practice and the guinea pigs are us, his friends. So one day we all decided to give him a dose of his own medicine and recruited his wife’s help which she accepted happily.
Our friend Mark has pulled so many pranks on us, we have lost count. So after going back and forth on different ideas, we decided that starting with a prank call is the perfect plan. We know he won’t suspect it because he hardly does any prank calls, he has other ways. So when he and his wife went out on a date, we went on ahead with the plan. We ask this girl to call their house and leave a message saying “hey Mark, what the idea of not calling me back after everything that happened? You can’t just sleep with someone and not call them back! And I thought you were different. Turns out, you are a jerk just like everyone else. In fact you are the biggest jerk I have ever known. You just used me for sex. You said I’m beautiful and sexy, and I believed you because you kept coming back for more. You are such a liar. You can call and tell me straight that you don’t want to see me again? What a jerk! I hate you!!!”
We made the girl leave 2 more short messages with basically the same context. When Mark and his wife return home their machine was blinking like crazy. When they listened to the messages, his wife pretended to throw a fit and walked out of the house. We were waiting at our favorite bar and had a little drinking session. Our friend called his wife 27 times and also called us all leaving desperate messages asking for help. By midnight, we decided to go back to his house and put him out of his misery. When we got back to there, Mark was not there. The babysitter said he went out to go and look for his wife. After 30 minutes he came home looking disheveled and stressed. He looked like he got hit by a bus, the poor guy! When he came in, we greeted him with mischievous grins and smiles, his wife having the biggest grin of us all. It took several seconds before it dawned on him that he just got pranked. He was laughing but frustrated at the same time. Now he knows how we all feel.
Until now, the prank is still the main topic of our Friday get-togethers. It did not cure our friend from his pranks though. But he mellowed down a bit.
