Don't do it, it's just mean and not very funny.

Partially related story: I was in 8th grade and I was going to ask a cute girl to dance with me at the school dance and I chickened out standing in front of her. I panicked and told her that one of my friends wanted to dance with her and I'll never forget the look on her face going from happiness and hope to total disgust. I didn't intend to hurt her feelings when I did it, but that was how it turned out.

Just to clarify the victim is a 6'3 wr on the football team and defiantly would not be emotionly hurt, probably just a bit embarrassed. Whats holding me back is i dont really know how the girl would react, i know her ok and she is defintly the outgoing type and i doubt she would be actually offended and just find the whole thing funny but Im not 100 percent certain.

Oh okay, so he'll just kick your ass when he finds out you did it.

I change my answer then. Go for it.

.. this isnt a prank, its down right mean. It could hurt people, and its not gonna be very funny even if it did work out the way you plan.

This actually sounds like fun.

I guess it would depend on the people though: on how serious they take it. You don't really want to make anyone cry for a few laughs.

I have to agree with that. I don't see how it could be funny, everyone will be embarassed and angry in the end.

Well... i never saw anything useful in most pranks, so maybe it's just my humor, but i strongly suggest you don't do it.

This sounds like a terrible idea, i honestly don't see the humor. It worries me that there are people that find shit like this funny. Don't do it, it's down right mean, you might find it funny but i doubt anyone else will.

Too awkward and weird. You don't fuck with people like that, tbh.

I think it may be a bit much personally. But i am overly nice i guess. Though bear it mind, it could cause the victims gfs to break up with them or something along those lines.

Depends, are you doing it to the popular kids who wouldn't really give a shit or are you doing it to the kid in class who is borderline suicidal? Pick your target carefully, or better yet don't do it at all it's dumb.

Maybe if it was actually funny.


but its its not even entertaining, its just a dick thing to do. Be more creative.

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Holy shit.

It's just a candy gram. A friggen candy gram lol.
Nobody takes those seriously. The girl would have to be extraordinarily weird to blow it out of proportion. Everybody sends those things to everybody. We pranked a few teachers to see responses and it was just harmless fun.

(attractive female student sends a candy gram to a male teacher and the message was read outloud and the teacher would act all sketchy and shit lol)
(students would send one to a female teacher "from" a good looking male teacher with a cheesy note that was also read aloud and depending on who it was they'd blush/laugh or act all coy)

Just don't do it to somebody who would be weird/prude enough to take those seriously.

My 2cents.

EDIT: Forgot to mention numerous students were pranked. Myself included, but it was all good. A random person knocks on door during class with cupid wings and announces candy grams and notes according to direction. It's mildly embarrassing when your friends prank you cuz the note is read aloud to the class and is sooo cheesy but still very funny.

Just do it to 2 people who aren't emotional wrecks in the first place and there's nothing wrong with it. If it turns out bad just admit you pulled a trick on them and suck it up.

imo you won't have a problem unless the guy is extremely insecure so gl hf.

just be clear who you are pranking

either do it to a girl you know that doesnt like ur friend and have ur friend in on it and have some fun making the girl feel awkward but liked

i.e. a really hot girl who probably wont have her feelings hurt if she finds out its a joke

or tell the girl ahead of time and tell her to play along

in fact send it to multiple girls and have them all play along differently - one girl is weirded out (making ur friend feel awkward), one girl falls in love with ur friend (which could be hilarious), one girl knows its a prank and gets really mad at him, another tries to get really serious with him, etc etc

can be a lot of fun on him before he figures out they're all in on it

you can make it work but you have to let one of the parties know whats going on - probably the girl as you don't want her to get legitimately hurt

apparently candygrams are serious business to a lot of people <_<

at our school probably half of the candygrams were pranks, it's no more serious than a rumour that "so and so likes so and so" and god knows those pop up all the time whether they're true or not. if my friend caught me checking out a girl i wouldn't hear the end of it for a month or two and the girl would probably get wind of it. no big deal
