Was chatting with my girlfriend tonight and she told me of a practical joke she almost executed.

Her pregnant friend sent her a picture of a recent ultrasound.

She was going to forward it to me and say it's mine.

Forward without comment, and THEN say "oh of course it's my friend's. Didn't i say that in the header?

That's evil! I do like it....

[chaosscorpion]

Sorry that is cruel on so many levels.

[Sergeant_Crunch]

I like the way your gf thinks. But damn, that's evil.

...and without missing a beat, I replied, "Hah? Can't be mine. Where are the horns?"

[Jeff LaMarche]

That would be an especially cruel joke in my case, since I've been snipped.

On a somewhat related note, there used to be a novelty company that made among other things a series of fake but very official-looking envelopes with fake return addresses and everything to make coworkers/housemates believe that the recipient was involved in a scandalous paternity suit or had tested positive for some horrible new STD or had sent away for a catalog of mail-order brides ...you get the idea.

One of my friends years ago got sent one while in college. It made for quite the conversation.
