Prank I pulled at the Harry Potter Book Release

Got a great pic of G1 Op or BW Megs? Whether it's 2-D or 3-D it's welcome as is any other form of art outside the custom figure world.

Prank I pulled at the Harry Potter Book Release

Postby Kohdok » Sat Jul 21, 2007 10:54 am

Motto: ""Spider-Truck, Spider-Truck...""
So, if there's one thing that makes a satisfying prank, it's a prank against Harry Potter fans who have waited for over a year for this book to come out. So, I went around to the most into-it groups and asked them "Are you into spoilers?" Some would react, some wouldn't. If I got a nice negative (Or positive) reaction, I would claim I had a picture of the last scene of the new book. Whether they wanted to see it or not, I flashed them this picture for about one second before hiding it again:

At it's best, the prank would get one or two people cowering who "Didn't want to see spoilers" a couple people going "What the heck" and at least one laugh. The best part was then the others would try to convince the people who didn't want to see spoilers that it was okay to look. It took a while, sometimes, but getting everyone else in on the joke proved to be quite satisfying. Eventually I got a little infamy and was approached by some people who wanted to see it.

Some of me favorite quotes:

"I...uh...I see they're taking it in a new direction."

"You scared me for a minute, there."

"I wanna see! I wanna see!...What the HECK it THAT?!"

"It really should end like that."

"You're gonna get beaten up some time, dude."

"Hey! That's Optimus Prime!"

And so on. It was probably the best prank I've ever done! :lol:

Life can be pretty sweet when your alt-mode is a B-2 Stealth Bomber.

And for those of you who are wondering... I'M A GIRL!

I'm not prejudiced; I hate everyone equally.

And if they do, someone be there with a video phone or something. Cross fandom violence is always funny.
