We\u2019ve all had something to do with a prank call at some point in our lives. Whether we partook ourselves in this act of mischief or heard of someone else doing it, it was the hottest deal of our childhoods. But when was the last time you heard of any good<\/em> prank calls? It\u2019s easy to fall into ridicule and people are getting more and more skeptical as time goes by, so it\u2019s gotten increasingly difficult to trick them.<\/p>\n

But what really makes good prank calls stand out is not their likelihood to trick the receptor. Rather, it\u2019s just how funny they can be without hurting anyone\u2019s feelings in the process. See underneath for some examples to understand what we mean.<\/p>\n

#1 Idea: Pretend The Other Person Called You First<\/strong><\/p>\n

You and I both know that the person at the other end of the line didn\u2019t lift a single finger to ring you up first. But that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t claim otherwise! Call your victim up and then act as if you merely picked up the phone. Iconic quotes include \u201cWho is this?\u201d or \u201cWhy did you call me?\u201d Most of the cases, the person will hang up at the first chance. Once in a while, though, you might end up with someone who will argue to great lengths that YOU were the one who called first. A true test of wills and strength.<\/p>\n

#2 Idea: Call Pizza Hut And Ask For Domino\u2019s Number<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s safe to say that no Pizza Hut order-taking employee lives and breathes for the restaurant chain, so you won\u2019t be hurting any feelings with good prank calls like these. Ring up your local Pizza Hut. Start describing your favorite pizza on the Domino\u2019s menu. When the employee eventually points out this pizza is nowhere to be found on their menu, ask for Domino\u2019s number. For extra points, repeat the process and call Domino\u2019s.<\/p>\n

#3 Idea: Call Subway And Ask When The Next Train Is Leaving<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019re one hundred percent certain this must have happened at least once in Subway\u2019s history \u2013 unironically. Can you blame your Average Joe who is just trying to book an urgent train trip for misunderstanding the real purpose of the company? Become this Average Joe and vehemently insist on getting an answer for that trip that you REALLY need to take tomorrow.<\/p>\n

#4 Idea: Call Petsmart And Convince Them Your Fish Drowned<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alright, this might be jumping into \u201ctorture poor store employees\u201d territory, but if you make sure to mention at the end that it was all a joke, you may have given said employees some great memories. Ring up a local Petsmart and ask for their counseling. When you get down to the problem, start talking about how you\u2019re certain that your fish drowned. Counter any attempts they may make at trying to put the blame on something else.<\/p>\n

#5 Idea: Conduct A Survey With Really Weird Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is one of the good prank calls that will also let your imagination flow wildly. People are generally reluctant to answer surveys, so you might have trouble finding someone willing to listen to you. But when the miracle DOES happen, just reel them into the weirdest survey you can think of. Here are some fun examples you can use:<\/p>\n
