My girlfriends and I would look for married couples in the phone book, then call and start what I can imagine was an awful argument for the dialed dolt.

I was mean.

Oh goodness! Those were the days when one could make a prank call and just think you did the most wonderful thing on earth! I perfected the 'Is your refridge running' with about a 10 minute survey that ended with that. I was so good!

My best one.....

We had two phone lines at home, the kids and the parents phone line. One Sunday morning, I call some random number and say........

'Grandma! I need to talk to dad real fast please. It's Janie.'

No one has mentioned the classic where you call KFC and when a female answers ask her, "How large are your breasts?"

I got busted by an old boyfriend. Badly. I had called and hung up on his phone several times over the course of a week.
I did it again, and this time, he called right back and asked if I had just called him. I replied in an offended tone
that of course I had not called him. He told me that he had just had *69 activated on his phone, and he knew it
was me.

Then I got the bright idea to suggest that my dog had knocked the phone off the hook and hit the speed dial.

I used to call random people, pretending to be the operator, informing them that I would be redialing their number for some bullshit test or some other reasonably plausible excuse, but for them not to answer. We would hang up and I would call them back and let the phone ring and ring and ring until they eventually answered. Then I'd yell, "I told you not to answer the phone, fuckface!" Ah, that takes me back.

Someone I used to know used to do this prank call, to just one specific confused person @ our high school:
"yes means no, no means yes! If you don't say anything, you're on drugs! Are you on drugs?!"
He would stutter & no matter his response, my friend would blurt "you're on drugs!!!!!"
It was so stupid now that I think about it.
Sorry, to Ted.

The successor to prank calls (you really can't do it anymore) is IM spamming and Vent harassment. I've got balls of steel!

npr had a hilarious voice mail from some guy's mother that made the rounds when he was in college. everybody who went to that school heard it...she was going on about how his girlfriend was a slut or some such thing. anybody hear that one?

i got pranked once and still can't talk about it, it was a discussion on tampons. that's all i'll say.

we had the teacher phone directory for my school district, good times.

we would also call random people in the phone book and when they would say "who is this?" we would be like "come one who do you think it is...." and on and on, we would get some people who actually thought they knew us.

When we were kids a buddy had a "cellular phone" and we'd take it to the back of the grocery store parking lot and call the payphone that was right inside the door. "Hi, can you get us some eggs while you're in there" and such.

Once some kids called my aunt and asked "Is your refrigerator running?" She said, "No." They didn't know what to say and hung up.
