Pranking is just what assholes call being an asshole.
Don't be an asshole.
Believe it or not, friends can be mischievous with one another in good faith
Pranks can 100% be harmless and fun, but if you're ever questioning whether or not a prank is harmless don't do it.
A good prank is defined by whether the "victim" is laughing about it as well, at the end. The catch is, this is defined entirely by the victim. There is no arguing about it. If they aren't smiling, you screwed up.
I've done, and been victim to some good pranks over the years. I've also dealt with the bullying version. There is a big difference.
