GOTCHA!
PRANK YOUR FRIENDS WITHOUT CREATING DISASTERS
allergic to or substances, like
April Fools’ Day should really be all fun and games, but it’s not always that way. We’ve all heard stories of pranksters who had to face consequences in court or companies that have had to issue public apologies for bad practical jokes. We want the fun of April 1 to continue all month, but it should be safe and fun. Here are three ways you can ensure the good times roll without incident, injury, or disaster. Mess With Someone’s Tech Avoid destroying or damaging anyone’s tech tools, don’t scam your friends out of money, stay away from scenarios that could potentially be cyberbullying — like posting a crude photo of a friend — and avoid using places with sensitive information, like online banking, as the backdrop for a joke. Instead, keep it harmless. For example, cover the computer monitor in wrapping paper or change a word your prankee commonly uses in text messages to something funny using the predictive text feature. Freak Out Their Taste Buds Food can be an easy, fun way to trick your loved ones into eating something totally disgusting! Avoid foods that your loved ones are
laxatives, that will cause a detrimental reaction. Opt for the shock factor of bad-tasting food combinations rather than wreaking havoc on the
bowels or digestive tract. Imagine biting into a caramel apple, only to get a mouthful of onion juice! (And be sure to make a real batch of the treats you pranked them with as an olive branch after the fact.) Fool With Their Tools We all have items that we rely on every day, and these make for the perfect targets for your next prank! Avoid destroying or hindering any tools that your prankee needs to survive, like a CPAP machine, and don’t make it impossible for the person you prank to get their work done. Keep it simple, like setting their alarm clock for 2 a.m. If you have the patience for it and an understanding family, cover the bars of soap in the shower with clear nail polish. They won’t understand why there are no suds until they hear you snicker!
Stay safe this April!
