Free DIY Pranks
April Fool’s is fast on its way. We all need to do our part by playing some practical jokes and inflicting temporary but fun suffering on those we hold dear. Here are some quick and cute DIY pranks—no supplies necessary.
- Fool your landlord and don’t pay this month’s rent. They might get this joke year-round, but because it’s April first, it’ll be comical and irresponsible.
- Propose to your significant other. Watch their face morph with love and shock only to immediately question your entire relationship as they try to deduce if you’re serious. Pure comedy!
- Tell your friends and family you’re going to start working on yourself. Prank them hilariously by sitting on your couch all day.
- Run into your coworker’s car in the parking lot, then leave a numberless-note on their windshield… “Sorry for all the damage done to your vehicle. Please call so I can pay for repairs.” Hopefully they laugh so hard they cry.
- Cancel plans at the last minute. There is nothing people find more funny than being let down.
- Tell your spouse you’re picking up your kid from school, then don’t. Abandon your child for the sake of the holiday. A funny memory that will last a lifetime!
If these classics go over poorly, don’t sweat it. Some of us on this earth just aren’t gifted with such a fantastic sense of humor like yours and mine. Happy pranking.
