Pranks

It seems certain that last year stood as the Year of the Prank. With examples ranging from that terrifying zombie corpse to the ghostly little girl terrorizing elevator riders, we were rather nervous that 2013 wouldn't hold up. Luckily, thanks to this hoax pulled off at a beauty salon, there's still hope!

Milk does a prank good.

This surely makes waiting for the bus a little less boring.

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.

There's nothing quite so funny as watching people who think they're about to be implicated in misdemeanor-level crime. And these pranksters know it.

Generally speaking, we would say please PLEASE leave commuters alone. They're already suffering the indignity of being elbowed by teenagers in the throes of sweaty, bubblegum and Axe-scented passion. After a day of soul-crushing work most people just want to be left alone. But this prank on the 4 train might actually have made some people's days a little better.

Many artists go to great, uncomfortable lengths to immerse themselves in their work. I'm not sure if you could call what Stuart Edgington and Kaitlin Snow have done in this video "art," but there's no questioning their commitment to this wonderfully offensive project.

YouTube It's not even the slightest bit of a secret that we love a good practical joke. We even kind of like the bad ones. Basically, as long as nobody winds up in a hospital, we're on board.
