Pranks

Guy Fieri has been having a tough time with his new restaurant, Guy's American Kitchen & Bar, which opened in New York's Times Square last November. First the eatery was savaged in a New York Times' review. And just when folks were starting to forget about that, Fieri has made an unforced error which is sure to subject him to another round of ridicule.

I love a good prank as long as no one loses a limb or catches on fire. This particular prank is funny and super creative. Watch as countless drive-thru employees wonder WTF as they attempt to serve the invisible driver.

I love a good prank, but I am not sure about a parent pulling a prank on their child. Especially when it goes so far that the child cries. Take a look at this video of a mother making her son believe he bought a $50,000 Mustang on eBay.

Just because it's legal to do it on your own time in Colorado, doesn't mean you can drug your whole class. Two University of Colorado students in Boulder thought it would be funny to bring pot brownies to a morning class to share. Then a bunch of people who ate them had freak-outs. Suddenly it was not so fun.

You know how much we love pranks. We're not talking about the terrifying kind involving zombies; we're big fans of the innocent variety like posting a picture of a fake lotto ticket. These types of jokes are all in good fun, and they give us awesome ideas for our own everyday pranks. That's exactly why we're loving Pearce Murphy's shenanigans.

Nolan Daniels did not win hundreds of millions of dollars as part of last week's record breaking Powerball $588 million jackpot. But he did trick millions of people on Facebook into thinking he had.

If you like watching people being frightened, this is the video for you. A man and his cameraman friend set up shop in an alleyway near Chicago's DePaul University. The guy was dressed up like Slender Man, a creepy faceless man/internet meme...

Not content with typical card tricks or a rabbit in a hat, magician Rich Ferguson puts a spooky Halloween spin on his act by literally losing his head in front of freaked-out spectators. How in the world does he do it?

Few things are most satisfying than pulling off a really, really good prank. We're talking about the scare-your-pants-off kind that leaves our unsuspecting little siblings and friends falling victim to tons of spazzing out and the occasional tear or two. Basically, it's the best kind of mean joke around, but it's all in good fun!

Most people recognize satire when they see it, but not Floridians. Inboxes and Facebook pages of Florida residents recently received an article by The Onion describing an appearance by President Barack Obama's illegitimate 19-year-old son Luther at the Democratic National Convention. Incredibly, the story sparked a flurry of inquiries as to whether it was real. In case it isn't clear already, no,

There is nothing like a good prank to brighten your day.  I may have to start pulling a few of these around the office just to keep things interesting.  Maggie will definitely be the hardest but most fun to prank.  Enjoy some college pranks after the jump.

So yesterday I posted the picture above on Facebook -- I am the office 'nerd' pretty much, so of course I like nerdy things. By the time I got home from work someone on the Banana staff had stolen all my mugs and posted a ransom pic on Facebook. My main suspect, Chrissy Monroe!
