pranks

Sorry if you got your hopes up again, Sedalia.

Is it, though?

I don't know what it is about the winter time, but when the weather starts to really shift, all of a sudden we lose our collective minds.  Is it something in the water?

YouTube is full of prank videos. Some are very funny, some are very lame. As a fan of the Friday the 13th movies, I thought this one was well done, and brilliant in its simplicity. Basically, someone puts on a hockey mask, grabs a machete, then scares unsuspecting campers to death. Not literally. But close.

Revenge, as they say, is a dish best served cold.

Brad Paisley pulled a hilarious prank on the Swon Brothers during their show in Green Bay, Wisc. on Thursday night (Jan. 29).

"Dad, are you kidding me?!"

I usually have a good laugh over cheesy or fun little jokes or pranks. I'm not talking the ones that cause severe damage to a relationship, friendship or whatever. I'm talking about a well placed old joke. Things like the old whoopee cushion or one that I remember a lot the snapping gum...

So remember the video of the twerking girl who accidentally set herself on fire? Remember how we all got a good laugh out of it? Remember how everyone from YouTube commenters to morning news shows dubbed it "the end of the twerking craze as we know it"? Well, turns out it was all a hoax perpetuated by that merry prankster Jimmy Kimmel.

The one advantage of having super-broke roommates is that they don't have the extra cash to spring on giving your room a pretty, pretty princess makeover while you're overseas travelling. This man did not have that advantage.
