Brad Pitt and Matt Damon Prank George Clooney

Brad Pitt and Matt Damon Prank George ClooneyOn The Late Show with David Letterman last night, the guest was Matt Damon. The interview started off by discussing the "Matt Damon is dead" rumor which is obviously not true noting that he is alive and well. It was a funny interview with the exchange of stories between Damon and Letterman.

Matt starts telling a story that a week prior to his arrival at the Venice Film. He has no idea Brad Pitt was out promoting Inglorious Basterds when an overseas journalist asked him when he and Angelina Jolie will decide to settle down. So Brad ended up pulling a hilarious joke that he and Angie will only get married if "George and his partner can legally do so."

So when the same Italian journalist came and ask Matt "is it true what Brad say?". Having no clue, he just went on and said "Yeah, of course it's true". When the journalist asked 'Do you mean George Clooney have a boyfriend?' tried keeping a straight face and went on to sat "Yeah, of course he's got a boyfriend. ‘And he wants to legally marry him?' We've been on him about this for years..."

It's "harmless little joke" as Matt calls it with Dave and told the he's pretty sure that Clooney is still laughing about it. Pitt, Clooney and Damon are known to be good friends who often joke and play pranks on each other. Now, we have to wonder if George Clooney is behind the Damon death rumors, or if he has something else up his sleeve.

Prankster Ribery wants more fun at Bayern

Franck Ribery | prank jokes ideasFranck Ribery, a Frenchman Bayern Munich winger, loves to bring more fun games back to his training after working under Louis van Gaal for several months now. He always had a reputation of being a joker in the dressing room. He regularly performs hilarious jokes to his team-mates and even former coaches Ottmar Hitzfeld and Jurgen Klinsmann during his first two years with the club.

So far he kept his head down and just followed orders. Although training with more serious approach is also working well for him, Ribery may be planning to lighten up his present coach Louis van Gaal. However, there are doubts in Ribery that Van Gaal would not see the funny side to any shocking pranks ideas he pulls.

After being able to fully train on Tuesday after recovering from a calf strain that he picked up while on international duty for France. Ribery could be available to make his first start of the season this weekend. This allows him to enable Van Gaal to pick him with Arjen Robben, giving him more match fitness in his first-choice team on Saturday. He could appear for France in their crucial World Cup qualifier against Serbia tonight.

Jet's Sanchez psyched to face former USC roommate

mark sanchez | college pranks ideasThe Jets' starting quarterback rookie Mark Sanchez, the fifth overall pick of this year's NFL draft, is very excited and can't wait for the 2009 NFL season to officially begin. He is about to get a true educational experience since the defensive schemes and the speed of the game would ramped up more than just a notch compared to the preseason games on Sunday when they face the Houston Texans in Texas.

Sanchez first NFL game would give him captivating flashbacks, facing a fellow rookie and former USC college teammate, Brian Cushing, the Texans' strong side linebacker. Both rookies were roommates for about 21/2 years at Southern California. They grew pretty close and had their share of college yucks, pulling the kind of shocking pranks that stay in the memory banks forever.

According to Sanchez, Brian Cushing always had something going on in the house or something funny to say about practice or class. He used to have a snake in their apartment and when people would come over and fall asleep at their house. They would put the snake on their guests to see how scared they got which they taught was a pretty funny pranks idea.

At USC, Sanchez and Cushing saw players constantly come and go, and they were two of the mainstays, considered the vocal leaders of the offense and defense. When players needed a pep talk, they didn't mind firing their teammates up. Although the two have had hundreds of laughs together, there won't be anything comical if Cushing comes flying around the end and plants Sanchez on his backside. If that does happen, it's a sure bet that Cushing will do a little trash talking.

Daniel Radcliffe claims he is done partying and pulling pranks

daniel radcliffe | stupid stuff pranksThe 20-year-old star Daniel Radcliffe claims he is too old for partying. In the past he used to play a lot of stupid stuff pranks and get involved with drinking or partying with the cast. Now, he no longer socializes with the rest of the ‘Harry Potter’ cast and crew because he wants to carve out a career as a respected, matured and serious actor.

He also blasted stars who are only interested in fame, insisting he hates the celebrity culture where people are celebrities as a by-product of what they do. He couldn’t care less about people reading every little thing about Peter Andre and Jordan. He said they don’t want to work, have no interests, no passions, nothing and yet they seem to be held up on pedestals. It does annoy him but can't do anything about it since his part of it.

Daniel’s serious attitude appears to be in contrast to his ‘Harry Potter’ co-star Rupert Grint. Rupert has been spotted at several UK music festivals this summer and makes no secret of his love of wild nights out. He recently said that when he's drunk, he likes to cause mischief. He steal props like the broomsticks from the 'Harry Potter' set and bring them out to the pub for comedy value. It seems funny at the time, trouble is he usually gets too trashed to remember what happened the next day.

Billboard prank for college football coach Charlie Weis

coach charlie weis billboard prankCharlie Weis began his coaching career in 1979 at Boonton High School in New Jersey. He was named the 28th head football coach in Notre Dame history, agreeing to a six-year contract worth a reported $2 million per year.

Weis is the first Notre Dame graduate to hold the football head coaching position at his alma mater since Hugh Devore in 1934. His the first to serve as the Irish football coach on a full-fledged basis since Joe Kuharich in 1938.

Charlie thus far has taken it in stride stating "I'm the head coach at Notre Dame. I mean, welcome to my world." He knows there is a plenty of pressure to go around for a championship. But he should be used to that, since he was the offensive coach in Boston before heading to South Bend.

Like other typical NCAA Division I head football coach, he never played football at the college level. As he was preparing for his 5th year as Notre Dame football coach, someone decided it was time to give him a little extra "motivation" to have a winning year by pulling a prank in South Bend, Indiana. The still unknown prankster placed a hilarious jokes billboard message giving out best wishes and noting his 5th year of head coaching as an internship.

AHS students face discipline for prank racist remarks

kkk stupid stuff pranks ideasA number of Anderson High students face discipline for a racial incident. The episode unfolded in the AHS parking lot as students were leaving school Thursday. A couple of students made inappropriate remarks of intentional inflammatory racial remarks shouting “white power”. At least one of them covered his head with a sheet fashioned like a Ku Klux Klan hood according to the Anderson Community Schools officials.

Based from the information received by school officials investigating the incident, the actions appeared to have resulted from a student dare. Some students knew that the racially charged incident was planned, though it’s unclear how many was involved. Anderson High School principal Pat Fassnacht said school officials have been contacting parents of students who were involved or who might have provoked the incident. He said a number of parents have been notified, though he declined to say how many.

On Friday morning, AHS increased police presence and metal detectors at the entrance. Reaction of the other Anderson students were credited by the principal since they took the incident as more of surprise and disbelief rather than get angry with the tightened security. The silly stupid stuff pranks ideas that turned into a serious prank will result in punishment ranging from suspension to possible expulsion according to ACS interim Superintendent Lennon Brown.

Allen Iverson joining Grizzlies, not a funny stuff situation

allen iverson not funny stuff situation One of the N.B.A.’s most prolific scorers, Free agent Allen Iverson, were ignored by most teams allowing the Memphis Grizzlies to sign the 34-year-old Iverson. The one-year $3 million deal allows Iverson to possibly jump-start a stalled career and re-enter free agency next summer after a disappointing season split between the Denver Nuggets and the Detroit Pistons.

The frustration of this is not an off-season funny stuff that led Iverson to call the coming season something personal. The Grizzlies at 24-58 in the standings, finished last season 29th of 30 N.B.A. teams in attendance, took the risk of Iverson’s infusion among a young core comprising O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay and the second overall draft pick this year, Hasheem Thabeet.

By Thursday afternoon, the homepage of the Grizzlies’ Web site flashed a large picture of a smiling Iverson and a promotion for a season ticket coupled with an Iverson replica jersey. The thought of Iverson as the centerpiece in the franchise’s marketing scheme and not the playbook has crossed his mind.

Iverson and Zach Randolph will be two of the team’s veteran players and looked to assume new roles as mentors. In the past, both have been the subject of off-court issues. He will look to displace Mayo or Mike Conley Jr.in the starting lineup. Iverson may get an early shot at redemption when the Grizzlies begin the season Oct. 28 against the Pistons.

Mariner's recognition for team Pilots after 40 years

1969 Seattle Pilots | pulled pranks ideasIt was an incredible day that ended with recognition at the Seattle Mariners game. A couple hundred longtime baseball fans experienced the Pilots, Seattle's first Major League Baseball team during 1969, who fell victim to bankruptcy after playing just one season.

They sat before 13 members of the old franchise in a Hilton hotel conference room and chuckled for several hours during the team's 40-year reunion. After all this time, after all the bitterness over having the team for just one season, the appreciation of those trailblazing players remains.

They were a motley crew of players who either just wanted a shot to play in the big leagues or needed to prove they still could play at this level, went 64-98 their lone year at a Sick's Stadium that was literally being renovated as the fans filled into the game. They spent the year playing stupid stuff pranks ideas on each other and trying to figure out what to do whenever the water stopped working at the ballpark.

It's the kind of story that a novelist couldn't imagine, but for the Pilots, it's just one of many funny tales. It's hard to believe that so much camaraderie could come from such a short period. The Pilots were a one-season wonder, perhaps even a one-season fiasco. They weren't around long enough to be considered a one-hit wonder. But they made an impression. And they'll stay alive in "Ball Four," in the minds of fans and in a new documentary expected to be finished in October.

Favre joining Vikings may not be a stupid stuff idea

brett favre stupid stuff decisionMinnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress finally landed his man at quarterback, Brett Favre, a future Hall of Famer who now enters the NFL for his 19th season. The former QB star of the Green Bay Packers for the last 17 years would now join his long-time nemesis, the Vikings. After shaking off the rust in a few preseason appearances, he's ready to play on Sunday's 2009 NFL campaign season opener matchup against the host Cleveland Browns.

Teaming up with All-Pro running back Adrian Peterson, the reigning NFL rushing champion. Favre now have a stronger surrounding cast than he did under the New York Jets last season. It is the perfect situation for him, having Peterson to carry most of the offensive load, allowing him to limit the use of his aging arm. Though still reliable, the stamina for his throw that he had before during his prime years with the Packers had now faded.

After ending a three-year playoff drought last season that won them the NFC North Division crown since 2000, the Vikings enters the season pegged as a Super Bowl contender after the acquisition of Favre, coupled with the greatness of Peterson and a stellar defense led by two mammoth tackles and a fiery defensive end. The embattled head coach hopes that this year will be the one that keeps him employed.

The Vikings are banking on Favre to lead them to a second straight division title despite playing in an extremely competitive NFC North. With their rival Packers, whom despise their former starting QB for doing a stupid stuff by joining the Vikings, and Bears whom expected to make some noise with their gunslinging quarterbacks and Detroit whom just starting to go to a rebuilding process. Minnesota hopes of making it out of the first round of the playoffs.

Standup comic sued slander by her mother-in-law

Sunda Croonquist | stupid stuff hilarious jokesSunda Croonquist, a veteran stand-up comedian, is being sued by Ruth Zafrin, her mother-in-law. Her usual comic routine relied heavily on the mockery of her family. Typically using cultural references from her half-black, half-Swedish, Catholic-educated background. With frequent imitations of her mother-in-law, the in-law has grown tired and taken offense to all the jokes made at her expense by Croonquist.

Ruth Zafrin, the mother-in-law, is now suing comedian Sunda Croonquist for making too many mother-in-law hilarious jokes. Ruth Zafrin, is Jewish, and says Croonquist is spreading hurtful lies with jokes like the one about her mother-in-law urging her to name her daughter Hadassah or Goldie something hard to pronounce, like Shaniquah.

Though defamation and slander still hurt even when committed by a comic on stage, a joke is still just a joke. Sunda Croonquist has been making them for years like the one about how her mother-in-law, the day she met, welcomed Croonquist into her home. But Soonquist can't be having fun joking about the in-laws any more, maybe it's time for some new material.

Since the lawsuit was filed, Croonquist has bounced back and forth between anger and humor. She’s angry the action has estranged her husband and their two daughters from his family, noting bitterly, “This could have broken up my marriage.” Being a regular in the comedy scene, Croonquist has somehow found a silver lining and the lawsuit had sparked in her more jokes about herself and that of her mother-in-law.

10 things to know about TNA

tna | pranks ideas1. Samoa Joe, one of the top wrestlers in TNA, gave an interview to Penthouse magazine where he talked about pranks ideas that wrestlers play on one another during backstage. When asked if he’d ever had a prank played on him, he responded.

2. Alex Shelley is Chris Jericho. NO! Don’t dispute this, don’t talk about his attitude backstage. I don’t care. Alex Shelley can cut an effortless promo and wrestle. That is very rare. He is your Chris Jericho and gets pushed into the main event. I don’t particularly care what happens to Chris Sabin.

3. Samoa Joe is your Stone Cold. Or was. I don’t know if you can build him up after what you did to him, but he should have been and should be the focal point of your company. Give him a make up white, get that silly tattoo off his face and let him go back to making your company money.

4. James Storm, Robert Roode or Hernandez should be world champion now. The hardcore fans who follow your product have associated all of your world champions with another company. Only AJ Styles and Abyss were creations of TNA, and Abyss won the world title on a fluke. You need to create your own history using your own stars, and having wrestlers be the representative for the company who don’t suck that we associate with being TNA originals is essential.

5. No more D-List celebrities seriously harms the TNA.

6. Matt Morgan is not great at cutting a promo. He is not too impressive in the ring. He is booked to look like a moron, which he probably is in real life. Why would you reward him with a main event push? What kind of message does that send to the other wrestlers? I bet he’s a real sweetheart backstage who tries very hard. You need to reward people on talent in the ring and on the microphone.

7. Recognize opportunities to make history. If Kevin Nash or Booker T become a world champion, you can say you have the only person to hold a world title in WCW, WWE and TNA. I don’t know why you would have either of these wrestlers and not want to create history.

8. I understand that they’re afraid Kurt Angle will leave TNA, if they take away the title off from him, if you don’t do everything to support him now that your star will go to Japan or quit the business. The shell of Kurt Angle is not worth the ghosts.

9. Don’t be afraid to let everyone drop a catchphrase. Wrestling isn’t art. It’s there to make money. People with catchphrases will make far more money than people without them. WWE has been getting away from this, it’s time for you to pick it up and run with it. This, more than any other point here, will take you to the next level.

10. Finally, have fun with it! You have a lot of young great wrestlers. You have most of the best women’s wrestlers in the world. You have a solid core of veterans, a few home grown stars and a lot of tag teams. There is no reason your show should be unwatchable.

Forest Park’s Nate Brown stands out

nate brown | pranksNate Brown, unlike many of his teammates, has been with the varsity club of Forest Park football team for the last four years. It’s not just his tenure that sets him apart, but his temperament on the field and in the huddle.

Between funny pranks and hilarious jokes pulled on teammates, he led the Bruins with 81.5 tackles in 2008, including 19 that resulted in negative yardage for the opposition. Brown has made a name for himself on the defensive side of the ball as an all-district linebacker.

The rest of the guys look up to him since he's the heart of the defense and understands what they’re doing scheme-wise. Being part of the development of their school program helped him know what to expect and tries to help the young guys on the squad prepare.

Brown has been doing some preparing of his own this preseason, learning a new position as running back or half back in addition to his customary role at linebacker. Coach Chandler of Forest Park football team, knowing Brown has the best hands on the team, wanted to get more use out of his athletic tackle-machine and decided to try him as a running back this year. Brown always wanted to be on the offensive side of the play where he's the one going to take the hit and not other way around which he is well known for.

Degeneration X overshadows young stars

wwe degeneration x pranks ideasSince 2006, after the DX seemed to go extinct era, WWE got a whole new turned over audience. All of those new kids and families had not seen the "PG-version" of DX. The old era of mocking good ol' Vinnie Mac serments. They happened not to experience the the stupid stuff hilarious jokes, the joys filled with laughter, the shocking pranks ideas regularly pulled off, the humiliation of McMahon, and the other elements of Degeneration X which made wrestling programming reach the highest points of their ratings ever.

So with this 2009 re-emergence of DX, WWE is back on their usual heavyweight prime time rating status. While it's doing great for the mass number of fans, it holds the sense of urgency to build up any new stars since DX is holding up the show. Though it was just doing fine for the majority audience, there are some fans that made a big deal out of it. Mostly non-DX fans and fans that weren't fans yet during the prime of DX uprise. They want WWE to still focuse on other younger stars that they idolize which deserves more constant, consistent, and focused TV exposure to build up their character.

But since the WWE runs the show in cruise control. They let DX fill up as much TV time as possible. It's not their problem as long as they get results, either the fans hated or loved the idea of it. Either way, both haters and lovers are still considered one audience. So far the it's doing wonders for them since the Youth Movement came to a screeching and procrastinating halt. After all it's also how WWE arrived at this "crisis point" to begin with.

Archie comics risky new concept

archie the proposal | pranks ideasArchie Comic Publications, a purveyor of the greatest Go-Along-To-Get-Along milieu in American comics, is said to release their 600th issue "Archie Marries Veronica: The Proposal" with an entirely blunder concept that could mess up the company. The story won't be a regular story of Archie Andrews and his pals live out their days on the little town of Riverdale. It would take place five years from now, in which Archie marries Veronica Lodge and spurns the good-natured, down-to-earth Betty Cooper.

Veronica and Archie are better off dating in high school than spending the rest of their lives together. Veronica would be much better off going to college and marrying an attorney or investment-banker in training, while Archie would be lucky to find a woman who will be content with what will likely be a hodgepodge of mid-tier salaried jobs and a couple of vacations in Florida.

A big factor why "Archie" has lasted on the industry, mainly because there are a lot of parents that encourage their kids to buy Archie books. It's just because they do know what they are getting from "Archie". All funny tales about teens and their crazy mishaps. Just innocent hijinks, practical jokes and pranks ideas. Marriage means having to get a job and worry about money not a fun thing for a reader who can barely figure out where his allowance is coming from.

Prankster warned for serious offense on smart car vandalism

smart car pranks ideaSmart cars are very popular to commuters because of it's superior gas mileage and cute look that weighs about 725 kilograms. What gains attention to their business is the vehicle's unique look, that makes customers shell out a loaded model for up to $20,000. Evidently, that attention also brought the vehicle as the main target for shocking pranks vandals.

Media reports swarmed the internet of photos and videos of people using brute strength and long poles to tip the small smart cars. Windows, exterior mirrors and panelling of the cars were damaged, amused bystanders posed with the flipped car and snapped photos with their cellphone cameras. Outraged owners have vented their anger on blogs. One Alberta owner of a so-called "Smartie" was so furious, that he posted photos on the Internet and offered a reward of $1,000 for information leading to an arrest.

Ken Lust, sales manager of Smart car at David Morris Fine Cars, who also was a victim of a bad car prank three years ago, says goofing around with it isn't a harmless prank but rather a brazen act of property damage. The sales manager spent several hundred dollars repairing smashed windows and a bent gas cap. No one was ever arrested. Lust believes it was the work of several fellows who probably had too much to drink that night.

Some may think tipping over cars and shattered glass car pranks idea are harmless fun, but under the Criminal Code of Canada, mischief is a potentially serious offense, said Sanjeev Anand, a law professor at the University of Alberta. A conviction carries a variety of potential punishments, including a maximum sentence of between two and 10 years in jail, although such sentences are rare, the law professor said.

Hills' Audrina on her way to the big screen

audrina partridge in sorority rowAudrina Partridge, known as part of the still running for three years reality hit show "The Hills", proves to everyone that she too could act for real while playing a character other than herself in "The Hills". She didn't went to any audition to get the part. Instead, she received the script from the producers and it happened.

In SORORITY ROW, Partridge plays Megan, a feisty and sort of the sassy member in a group sorority girls. In the story her character boyfriend Garrett cheated on her, so naturally all the sorority girls wanted to get back on him. Because in the sorority row, if a member was cheated on, all the sisters of the sorority also got cheated on. So they decide to play some pranks ideas on an unsuspecting friend. Naturally, the pranks they tried to pull off went fatally wrong.

Even if she's still filming "The Hills" up to end of December for it's fourth season, she'd still go back and forth to shoot for the "Sorority Row". Since her involvement in this movie might affect her real life role in the reality show, the producers decided not to bring or show that part of her life in "The Hills". She said it's hard for her not to share it with the fans and bring them along her Hollywood journey, which is the main reason for her to move to LA since acting was her long passion and love in the first place.

The teens were caught doing the shocking pranks to a driver and pedestrians passing by. The teenagers probably didn't mean to do any harm, but still not a laughing matter for Walpole police, so they arrested the six who hurled them at passersby.

The impact of the eggs, thrown from a moving Toyota Highlander SUV raised welts on a jogging woman's arm on Washington Street that was also pelted with eggs at around 8:30 p.m. according to police. The jogger and the driver, who wished to press charges, said they didn't know what the hurled object was until each found the cracked shells. Shortly after, a second person called the police to report eggs had been thrown through the open window of her car.

The woman told the eggs hit the headrest of her children's car seat where one of her infants had been sitting just minutes before.

Sgt. John Carmichael spotted the truck at the intersection of Stone and School streets. Officers contacted their parents. Deputy Chief Scott Bushway wouldn't categorize it as a prank and that throwing eggs at a person is an act of stupid stuff pranks ideas.

Mila Kunis gets sick of the Ashton Kutcher questions

mila kunis | that 70's showMila Kunis, now 25, got shot to fame playing as Ashton Kutcher's girlfriend "Jackie" on the hit TV series "That '70s Show". At the time of the audition for the role, all people auditioning were required to be at least 18 years old. So Kunis who was actually 14 at that time, told the casting staff that she was going to be 18 "one her birthday".

She was able to continue in the role despite having misled the directors. Despite her age, she had been considered the best fit for the character and was thought to have been creative in her way of gaining the audition. She has been nominated seven times for a Teen Choice Award for playing that role, but sadly never won.

The show got wrapped up in 2006. Since then, she hasn't worked in years with Ashton, the well known actor that loves to pull off hilarious jokes and pranks ideas to anyone. Though its been a long time since she played "Jackie", she admits that she still regularly has to answer questions about the actor. She just winces whenever an interviewer asks her about her former "That '70s Show" co-star Ashton Kutcher.

She says, "Yesterday, a woman asked me, 'So! Was Ashton a prankster on set?' I went, 'Oh my God. For real?' That's when I know the interview's going sour when they ask me what it was like kissing the known prankster and famous actor, Kutcher. She point out that the show's been off the air for four years now and it's just no longer cute or funny stuff to talk about anymore.

Cricket sport fanaticism taken too far

4th ashen test | pranks ideasIn the early hours of the first day of this vital clash that ended with Australia convincing winners on the pitch at the 4th Ashes Test Cricket 2009 season. England collapsed to be all out for 102 in the face of some improved Australian bowling, with more than the occasional tired-looking shot being played.

A member of a supporters group calling itself 'The Fantatics' carried out an act of sporting terrorism, he pulled off a shocking prank by setting off the fire alarm at the England team's hotel. Resulting for the whole team to be forced out into the Leeds 4am at night. While fire fighters checked the hotel for the source of the alarm. They were allowed back into their rooms after a good 20 minutes had passed.

The web site 'The Fantatics', established in 1997, have a history of making gooses of themselves on the world stage. As recently as this year's Wimbledon tournament organizers were appalled by their over-the-top antics. 'The Fanatics' have come out and admitted that members of the group were indeed responsible for the so-called pranks ideas.

Anything a bunch of yellow shirt wearing Australian tennis fans try to throw back at the Barmy Army would only pale into insignificance, which might go part of the way towards explaining this mindless escalation. Annoying as the Barmy Army can be, they don’t stoop to the kind of behavior displayed by 'The Fanatics'. They sing hard, they sing long, they drive you to the point of murder, but as far as I know they don’t go setting off fire alarms at hotels.

John Hughes' legacy of laughter

john hughes | hilarious jokes and pranks ideasJohn Hughes, a Michigan native, writer, producer and director of such films as "Uncle Buck", "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "Home Alone", has passed away at the age of 59 becuase of heart attack. His films featured outrageous pranks, hilarious jokes, funny tees, stunts and highly imaginative hi-jinx, mostly involving children and teens pulling off wild escapades that bewildered their elders.

John Hughes is now most likely sharing laughs with one of his previous stars, the late John Candy, who preceded him also by heart attack in 1991, at the age of 43. Two brilliant men who gave much happiness to the world, to whom we owe gratitude for the hilarity they produced.

Both cases were perhaps afflicted by their diets and other lifestyle choices. It is known that in John Candy's case, his father also died at a young age of heart disease. It's truly ironic that, in both instances, someone who gave us such gifts that increase our own well-being fell victim to such ailments themselves.

Intent of phone pranks is to embarrass and humiliate

phone pranks ideasAn 18-year-old East Texas teenager is being accused of criminal mischief due to a stupid stuff pranks ideas and also speculated as a member of a notorious online group Pranknet.org, whose members orchestrate and carry out malicious and destructive shocking pranks, then brag about what they've done.

A web site that specializes in uncovering misdeeds and wrongdoings using public records, TheSmokingGun.com, claims to have evidence that proves he was the person who convinced an employee of an Arby's in Baytown that caused nearly $4,600 in damage to the restaurant. The editor and founder of TSG, Bill Bastone, said he would stake his reputation that he's tracked down and identified the right man, still it's nothing but speculation.

The Lufkin police consider the accused teen as a "person of interest" in their investigation of a recent similar "prank" at a McDonald's restaurant, the man has yet to be charged with any crime. The phone prank in Lufkin resulted in the firing of an employee. We would hope that an employer would understand that the employee had been just as cruelly abused as their property.

The intent was not just to destroy property, but to embarrass and humiliate that could take years, if not a lifetime, to overcome. While it's difficult to imagine how anyone derives pleasure from causing another person pain, it's even more difficult to comprehend how anyone could perpetuate such an act and then boast about it. We hope Lufkin police will soon be able to track down the individual who deserves the credit.

Practical jokes are funny and hurtful

pranks ideas maybe funny and hurtfulPractical jokes are cruel excuses for jokes. They are careless jokes made for fun at the expense of others. If you happen to be the joker then you got the best seat in the house. The joker practically has the free VIP box section seat to the best show of the year, watching someone else's humiliation.

It's like being a secret agent when someone is planning a stupid stuff pranks ideas. All seems well when they're around their victim. Then when the time is right, it all falls into place perfectly. After they have succeeded on their mission, they will return to headquarters and celebrate their victory.

Although practical jokes are funny, they can also cross the line and go too far. Maybe for the joker it all seems fine but for the target of the joke, sometimes they may be very hurtful. If you happen to be the person being messed and joked with, then you have the worst seat in the house.

When someone is going to be pranked they don't see a thing coming. Whatever seat we're in we all must know when a joke's not funny. We must make sure we don't take it to far no matter how funny we think it may be.

Surprisingly sad Sandler sells

funny people movie | hilarious jokesDirector Judd Apatow seems to have found the necessary ingredients in order to have a successful film. His latest “Funny People” is more dramatic than Apatow’s previous movies. The movie even included a 20-year-old video footage of Adam Sandler making shocking pranks call when the two briefly lived together.

“Funny People” is a meeting of both worlds. George Simmons played by Adam Sandler is one of the biggest comedic stars in Hollywood and lives in a mansion on the beach, but he is alone, unhappy and dying. When George performs a last-minute stand-up gig, he meets Ira played by Seth Rogen, a comedic work-in-progress who has the balls to clown on the superstar.

George initially hires Ira to write jokes for him, but Ira soon becomes a confidant paid to hear George’s problems and talk him to sleep. Through their relationship, we see every side of George: a hopeless romantic who sleeps with random women, a jerk who gives the appearance of a nice guy but constantly belittles Ira, a phony trying to find meaning in his finite life.

For its comedic value, “Funny People” ambitiously tries to balance serious personal issues with raunchy laughs, which may seem like much, but the film would not work focusing on one or the other. Apatow understands that life is a bitch, but nothing cures the blues like a good anal hilarious jokes.

Unmasking Dex the leader of Pranknet

pranknet leader Dex | Tariq MalikTariq Malik, the 25-year-old founder and leader of Pranknet also known online as "Dex", is a sociopath, a mean-spirited sadist who spews a barrage of racial epithets, vulgarities, and threats, and clearly enjoys the panic, fear, and damage he causes with his stupid stuff pranks ideas.

He and his followers place their shocking pranks call via Skype, confident that the Internet phone service sufficiently cloaks their identities and whereabouts. His frauds and sinister manipulations resulted in millions of dollars in damages to hotel rooms, lobbies and assorted fast food restaurants.

On July 21, a pair of TSG reporters went to 1637 Assumption Street in Windsor, where he lives in the ground-floor 'B' apartment. The notorious internet tough guy, who has gleefully used the telephone to cause all kinds of havoc, came up with a plan and decided to call 911 to report "suspicious persons" outside his home. It was a move that would have chagrined his devoted followers which they knew "Dex" as a bombastic, sharp-tongued cop hater.


He had been found and as a result, was barricaded in Pranknet World Headquarters with his mom, while two reporters loitered outside his window. According to Windsor Police Service records, Malik asked not to be contacted by officers when they arrived at the Assumption Street address. Despite that request, Fouzia Malik, 51, eventually allowed a pair of Windsor patrolmen to enter the family's $600-a-month apartment. The officers spent about 30 minutes conferring with Tariq before emerging to report that he did not wish to speak with reporters. It will likely not be the last time law enforcement finds itself inside Tariq Malik's bedroom.

Pranknet pranksters breaks out loose

pranknet | stupid stuff pranks ideasPrankNET, a group often imitated and deviously duplicated appears to be at the center of a growing shocking pranks trend that has harried hoteliers and restaurateurs for months and is now being investigated by the FBI. The head of PrankNET, who goes by the online name "dex" and has been behaving badly since 2000.

Members of PrankNET chat online, stream their calls live on an Internet radio show and post their greatest hits to a YouTube page, a popular breeding ground for more stupid stuff pranks ideas. During their calls they often drop the name of a security corporation or say they are phoning from a hotel's front desk to lend themselves an air of credibility and to get their victims to do surprising things.

The sheer difficulty of tracing prank calls placed online, and the social-networking programs used by pranksters, has increased their visibility and daring. A small community of prank callers have long enjoyed Dex's work, but some are growing concerned over his increasingly destructive ends.

Despite this string of incidents, an FBI official in Washington said the pranks do not represent a trend. The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center has received just one complaint stemming from the incidents. Cybersecurity experts say such attacks are dangerous and may be on the rise.

Defcon's hack proofing the hackers

hack proofing hackers pranks ideasThis year the Defcon organizers employed a top-down "dispatch" model similar to the one a taxi cab company might use. The Defcon's organizational topology made a small change allowing the event to go off without a hitch to avoid bizarre hacker pranks ideas this year.

Instead of using a matrix-like communication structure that let everybody have access to everyone else, Each group had their own communications system, and only the dispatch had access to all of them. That way, all they had to do was secure one node in the organizational tree and allow dispatch to pass messages from one channel to the other.

In years past, all 200-plus Defcon staff members ranging from security to telecommunications specialists to storage guys used the same system to communicate across the conference. As a result, Defcon attendees who found their way onto the security network could prank the entire staff.

Defcon's structural tweak is a lesson for anyone looking to streamline mass-communications in a secure way and prevent unwanted incidents.

Fake mizzou web address leads to rival school web

fake mizzou web address prankOfficials in University of Missouri found out a website that uses their trademark nickname "Mizzou" in a web address last week. The website is thought of as a hilarious jokes pranks ideas which leads web visitors to the rival territory. The web address www.mizzou.us takes unaware users to the official University of Kansas Web site.

Christian Basi, University of Missouri Spokesman, said that they've already asked the individual who owns the www.mizzou.us site to change or remove the domain name, since it infringes University of Missouri trademark. A spokeswoman at Collegiate Licensing Co. confirmed that a letter has been sent, but could not disclose details since it’s against federal regulation to disclose information about mailboxes.

A search of the domain name leads to an “L. Jeffries” of 501 E. Nifong Blvd., Suite 311, in Columbia, a UPS Store location. It’s against federal regulation to disclose information about mailboxes, so owner John Kadlec could not verify whether the 311 mailbox exists. On forums, some have attempted to track down the site owner. Some have pointed to Owl Software, a Columbia business with a mailbox at the UPS store. Owner Ann Roland said there’s no connection between the site and her company, which writes software for the food industry.

KU just became aware of the fake address and is not responsible for it, spokeswoman Jill Jess said. But the university hasn’t taken steps to ask the owner to remove it. “We can’t control what the greater Jayhawk nation does on the Internet,” Jess said. “Sometimes they can get a bit overzealous.”
