        Then it’s not a prank. It’s Being an assshole

        Only reason people say otherwise is self appeasement or bad parents.

            No. I believe in facts. Fact is some one being an asshole, is an asshole, no matter what term you’d give them to hide under.

            So. Again. He was being an asshole, not playing a prank.

              Ok, buddy.

              There’s not a single prank that everyone will laugh at, but keep believing what you want.

              Sorry, just to drive the point further home: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Practical_joke

              No mention of laughter even being a factor. You can edit the article if you’d like to change that.

              Also, this is a really good fucking prank:

                Are you really this stupid or are you pretending? The point being made is that everyone INVOLVED IN THE PRANK should be laughing for it to be a prank. Try using your fucking head for three seconds.

                  What’s the definition of most?

                  Here’s the definition of a prank:

                  a practical joke or mischievous act

                  A practical joke or prank is a trick played on people, generally causing the victim to experience embarrassment, perplexity, confusion, or discomfort.

                  No laughter required.

                    No mention of laughter even being a factor.

                    I shared the part where it mentioned it being a factor.

                    No, not required, but overall or most or more than half or more frequently or insert synonym here for most…

                    Generally a good practical joke will have the victim to be able to laugh after the fact and not be like you assaulted me. Assault isn’t a joke.

                    Since you don’t know what most means you may not know what assault means …

                    violent physical attack, as with blows.

                So your issue is parentage then.

                And if you act cruelly to one person simply so you and perchance another bystander can laugh at them, then I’d say you’re just proving the point, and you hang out with shitty people.
