Aggressive title, eh? Well, in the realm of camp pranking you have to be aggressive...and sly...and a quick-thinker...and good at planning a means of escape! That's just how it goes.
To make this article on pranking easier to read (and put into practice) I have divided my advice to put under five heads-Starting a Prank Battle, Victims, Annoying Your Victims, Pranks, and (the final and very important element) Protecting Yourself. So, I hope that you enjoyed that. Got to go.
Just a joke, of course! That's no place to stop. We need to tackle the first head to make this post long enough to reward you for patiently waiting for it. So...
Starting a Prank Battle
(guess what?! Also by this same girl called Indi Raine!)
First note-in these five parts I will heavily refer to two primary examples. They are great friends, and I hope that they get a chance to read this post! I'll tell the whole world (at least everyone reading this) that they were very patient (occasionally not!), loving, sweet girls who really came into my life when I needed them. I will not use their names for privacy, but will refer to them by their initials-K.L. and A.C.. Round of applause, please, for these wonderful people-and victims. More coming soon!
I got involved in playing pranks in July, and it almost came as a surprise to myself. It all started when my roommate, K.L., moved in-and woke up the next morning to my poetry recitations. She found it humorous (and morbid?) that I was quoting a portion from "Julius Ceasar" by Shakespeare-actually, it happened to be Anthony's speech at Ceasar's funeral. I did offer to change to "Requiem" by Robert Louis Stevenson. It then led to me waking K.L. up every morning. But I didn't want to bore her! I had to be innovative. So I stared some pranks, such as leaving my travel alarm clock next to her head while I hurried to my job in the kitchen (aka "safety"). As you can tell, I was her favourite person that morning!
I'd suggest that you start your prank battle similarly to how I started mine-slowly. Just be annoying (slightly-don't be a brat) to measure reactions. If they react well, move on to pranking. (Don't tell them that you're testing their reaction-yep, its a no-brainer.)
Oh, don't start off with a prank that will put you onto national television. If possible (now, as in the case of A.C., who will mention in a future post, this was not possible, unfortunately for her-but not me!) start with smaller tricks and work your way up to the more elaborate pranks.
Make sure that you are thinking a lot about pranks-you need to be "ready always" (Bible quote!!!!) with tricks!
Come back next time for part two of this informative series-"Victims", which will air Monday! See you all then (or better yet, in the commenting section below! I love to hear feedback, but I rarely do! Please comment!)!!!!!!!!!!!! God bless you!
