Best and worst pranks calls ever

First off in both of these instances I would like to say (ahem) “ SCREW YOU CALLER ID!” Back in the day, pre Caller-ID days, you could prank call people and it was AWESOME. I know when ever someone calls me and my Caller-ID says “Blocked” or “Unavailable”, I don’t answer. So way to go Caller-ID, way to put an end to prank calls. Do you think that the people that invented Caller-ID were just angry from getting pranked all the time. “We’ll put an end to your pranks” Then they would cry in their D&D books. (No offense D&D players)

Best worst prank ever:

The “Hey it’s me, what’s up?” call. It didn’t always work but when it did, AWW MAN! Here’s how it was supposed to work. You call your mark up. Let’s call him “Paul”. Paul answers, you just say, "Hey Paul, it’s me. What’s up?” Paul then will assume that he knows who he’s talking to. At this point, you keep the convo fairly vague looking for conversation clues.. Wife’s name, or kids, or what ever. Also, knowing something about your mark helps.. For an example, if you know that Paul is athletic talk about sports... This is where the prank gets good. You suggest that you and Paul meet up at a restaurant, or play basketball at a certain time. You arrive about 5 minutes before and watch Paul get stood up. Oh the call later must be great.

BEST PRANK!
The ordering a bunch of pizzas to someones house. If someone did that to me (please don’t do this unless you are going to pay for the pizzas) it would be AMAZING. Think about it.. you are at home, next thing you know there is a knock on the door.. BAM 5 pizzas waiting for you. It’s like a dream come true. That would be so great. Again, please don’t do this to me. But still.. awesome.

Christopher and the Angry Bear

As life goes on, I realize that everyone learns things about themselves. I have come to realization that I have an angry bear that lives inside of me. This angry bear, let’s call him Henry, doesn’t make his presence known often. Henry only comes out when I am hungry and haven’t eaten in a while. Henry isn’t the smartest beast in the forest, but he knows what he wants and will not be distracted by meaningless tasks until he has eaten what he craves. Great question, humble reader : what does Henry like to eat? Henry will eat just about anything, as long as it doesn’t take more than 5-10 minutes to prepare and start enjoying. Does Henry also lurk in the shadows? No, Henry is not a ninja... He is how ever quite focused on eating. Does Henry like to be called Hank? What? What are you talking about!? Where’s my peanut butter sandwich?!

Well.. I better go. I need to feed Henry.
