Practical Jokes

PROMPT March 25th

What’s the best or worst practical joke that you’ve played on someone or that was played on you?


You know, I’ve been thinking on this the entire day. Actually, since last night. I know there have been some in my life. Some have been done on me, and I’ve done some on more than a few unsuspecting folks. But I sure cannot remember a single one.

Unfortunately, I’m married to a person who doesn’t appreciate the subtle art of the practical joke, the pratfalls, the puns. He just doesn’t think they are funny at all. Shucks.

I love to watch the videos of the show ‘Who’s Line is it Anyways?’. Improv comic relief. So at night sometimes I’ll watch several, laugh myself silly. Make me laugh so hard I’ll cry,

So you find your fun wherever you can. I know I’ll have fun with my friends. And you don’t always have to play a practical joke on someone to have fun. Wordplay is often a lot more fun.
