Is your refrigerator running?
This prank is a modern twist to one of the most classic pranks of all time. Basically, you call someone and ask them if their refrigerator is running. Most people would think you’re asking if it is operational or not, and would reply in the affirmative.
You say, “Well, then, you’d better go and get it.” It’s so old that we feel like people have been doing it ever since refrigerators became a common part of every household. The bit about it being an evil, sentient being is pretty neat though. Respect.
Expectation versus reality
We are not sure whether this qualifies as a prank, but it’s still pretty hilarious regardless. They decided to mess with their friend by trying to make them jealous. We love just how much detail they put into the fake story they came up with about going to the mall with their boyfriend.
Of course, the truth is that they were just chilling and enjoying some mac and cheese. We’re not sure what their dog urinating on the couch has to do with the whole thing. Hey, at least they have mac and cheese!
