The 8 People who Deserve a Prank Call

Every day, we encounter people in our lives that just flat out annoy us. Sometimes they are our co-workers, oftentimes they are friends and family. They are men and women who have only one thing in common: they deserve a little prank call to keep them from getting a big head! Here's a look at eight people who need a prank call badly.

How many of these folks do you encounter in your day?

1. Your cube-mate at work. Inside an office cubicle built for two there is only so much oxygen to go around. Yet your cube-mate makes it his business so hog it all. They spread out their arms, leave food lying around everywhere and just generally occupy your space.

2. Your boss. While we're in the workplace, how about a prank call for your boss (note: make sure your boss has a sense of humor before proceeding!). After all, this is the person who pushes all the buttons in your professional life and keeps you late and makes you wait for that well-deserved raise.

3. The guy who cut you off in traffic. Finding the man or woman who sliced into your lane without a signal may be tricky, but given how these faceless individuals can raise your blood pressure, it's worth it for the pure release of a harmless, yet effective crank call.

4. The guy who took a cell phone call in the movie theater. Is there any human being lower than the guy who insists on talking on his cell phone during a movie? You're trying to enjoy the film and he's giving his friend half-way around the country a plot synopsis!

5. The in-laws who have overstayed their welcome. Calling your own house for a prank call may seem odd...but if it scares off your in-laws and sends them packing back to the safety of the their own home, isn't it well worth it?

6. Your friend who doesn't understand how TIVO works. You spend the entire day away from the Internet just to avoid the score of the big game you recorded and look forward to watching when you get home. Then, on the train, you run into an old friend who spills the beans on the final score without even asking whether or not you TIVO'ed it.

7. The bitter ex. Former boyfriends and girlfriends have a habit of taking things with them when they go. Stereos, favorite jackets, your heart being some of the most popular items. Why not give a little back with a carefully planned prank call?

8. Your parents. You're away at college and your parents won't leave you alone. You try and try to get some space, but they still call day and night. A proper prank call or two will keep them busy - and their phone line tied up so you can enjoy yourself.
