Do you have Prince Albert in a can-or remember the days of prank calls?

Thats Funny TripleB!

 

There is a major loophole as far as prank calls being extinct: pesky telemarketers. I find wasting their time and breath is worthy revenge to them calling up at the worst possible times.

Believe it or not (because of my age) I do remember the times when you could get away with prank phone calls -- except for the occassional: "I'm going to call the police."

It's good fun to order taxicabs to neighbor's homes, order pizza to neighbor's homes, and pretend you're a Chinese couch salesmen.

Other than that, I can't recall specific types of phone calls.

*starts to reminisce*

<[-]> Saber

 

One time, my friend Roy and I were bored so we took a phone book and started dialing numbers baed on things that seemed funny to us.

First call was to a guy named Van Boner. We call him up. "Hey, is Boner there? This is Mike Seaver, a parody to the tv show GROWING PAINS.

Second call is to some vietnamese guy.

Vietnamese guy "Hello"

TripleB and Roy "ET,ET,ET,ET UP MY NOSE, UP MY NOSE!"

Vietnames guy "What that mean?"

Triple B and ROy "RED RUM, RED RUM!

VIETNAMESE GUY "WHAT THAT MEAN?"

Triple B and ROy "....GAWK Mi=NO MI MI!! we shout out with laughter. THe VIetnamese Guy hangs up immediatley , as I believe that is the equivelent of the F-Word.

Next call is to a girl named Anne something.

Triple B and ROy "Uh, hello Anne...."

Anne "Uh, yes."

TripleB and Roy "Well, um, I wrote this poem about you and I wnated to read it to you.......

I knew this girl...her name was Anne.....

AND WE WERE ******* by a GARBAGE CAN!!!" we explode with laughter.

Anne hangs up.

Next call is to whom we think might be our music teacher from elementary school.

Triple B and ROy, pretending to be old men. "Uh, hello (teachers name)

Teacher "Huh, what are you talking about?"

TripleB/Roy "COuld you say that again louder?"

Teacher "What the hell are you talkinga bout?"

Triple B/Roy "COuld you speak up sonny, I could not quite hear you?"

TEacher "What?"

TripleB/Roy now start to sing this stupid chime we had to sing in class....SPEAK A LITTLE LOUDER SIR FOR I AM HARD OF HEARING!! we shout as we start to laugh at him.

NExt call goes to a guy in the phone book named BEN McDONALD Our intent is to call him, and start singing "OLD MCDONALD HAD A FARM, EH I EH I OH!!"

McDonalds Spouse "Hello."

TripleB/Roy "Yes, is Ben McDonald there?"

McDonalds widow goes dead silent for a moment. "My Husband has been dead for 2 years." she says evenly.

TripleB/Roy pause, as our crank call has been ruined...."Uh....GOOD!!!!" and explode with laughter.

 

One time, my friend Roy and I were crank calling this one family. Mostly calling and chanting RED RUM! RED RUM[/i]

Normally, this families kids were picking up the phone and screaming at us as we let them have it.

BUt this one time, the mom answered. OR rather, a few times, she did. She hung up right away, though.

THen, this other time we call, we start chanting it when the Mom answers. She calls for her Husband and puts the phone in his hand.

He shouts out STEPHEN, LET ME TALK TO YOUR DAD!

TripleB&Roy RED RUM RED RUM!!

Family's Dad, louder this time STEPHEN, PUT YOUR DAD ON THE PHONE RIGHT NOW!!!!

TripleB&Roy, not knowing who this Stephen is, go quiet as we try to figure out what to say.

Family's dad STEPHEN< PUT YOUR DAD ON THE PHONE RIGHT NOW

TripleB&Roy (trying to sound stunned)...."How...How did you know it was me?"

Familiy's Dad= "Go get your dad, right now and put him on, or we are coming over"

TripleB&Roy "No don't please!! We are sorry!!"

Family's Dad "PUt him on or I am coming right over"

TripleB, grabbing the phone from Roy "Go ahead!! May Dad hates you anyway!!! He said "Son, if you want a Raise in your allowance, you have to crank call the ******** family!!" and so here I am!!!"

We hang up, have no idea how it turned out.

 

call any random number


"hello"

have someone sceam help in the back ground

"hold on one minute"

"IT PUTS THE LOTION ON THE SKIN OR IT GET THE HOSE AGAIN!!!!!"

"okay, is this the sewing machine repair shop?"

most common response

click, dial tone............

EDIT: TripleB, oh damn, that was good

 

About a year ago, in the build up or early phases of the Iraq War, I was needed to baby sit my 11 year old cousin Bryan. I went to his house, played video games, stuff like that.

At one point, I wanted to watch the news, and he had to do his homework so I went to the living room. I turned on the TV and on MSNBC's daytime showings, there was Scott Ritter the outspoken former Weaopns Inspector, whom it was revealed he had been busted and pleaded guilty for soliciting a meeting at Burger King with a female minor on the internet a few years before.

I was listening to the interview with him, mostly dealing with WMD's. They started taking phone calls. I wanted to call in because I wanted to discuss, Gulf War vet to Gulf war Vet, some of the things Ritter was saying.

I called MSNBC, talked to the screener and discussed what I wanted to talk about. They seemed pretty interested in putting me on, so they put me on the wait, said I would be on in 5 minutes. I motion my cousin Bryan to come over and write down what I want him to say to Scott Ritter.

MSNBC's Host, it might have been Lester Hold= Ok, our next guess, one TripleB'sName is a Gulf War Veteran, and wants to dispute a mischaracterization with you.

Scott Ritter- Ok , I look forward to answering it...

Lester Hold Ok, your on TripleB.

I hand the phone to my cousin Bryan who reads what I wrote for him to say in his most childish vote possible

Scott, its me! I am waiting for you at Burger King. Where are you? he says, as I burst out with laughter!!!

Too bad no one watches MSNBC.

 

When my brother was a teenager, he prank called our local bowling alley and asked the guy if he had 10 pound balls. The guy started laughing and hung up.

I'm a huge fan of celebrity prank calls, where people use soundboards and use real quotes from movies. The Arnold Schwarzenegger ones are still the best.

 

Oh yeah, do I wish caller ID had been around when I was a kid, with all the prank calls we used to get! But caller ID did get a chance to help me about a year back when some kid had the nerve to call my house and say some not so nice things to me. Apparently he thought I was some girl he'd met at the mall, and it seemed as if she'd given him a fake phone number...my own. He was not happy when he found out I wasn't her and said some things he regretted when I called the number on the ID back and talked to his dad!

all the best prank calls by one of the greatest prank talents of all time.

 

The best place to download Arnold calls and other celebrity calls is here.

 

Don't go making phony calls, please stick to the seven-digit numbers you're used to...

 

The Celebrity call with AL Pacino as Michael Corleone was the best!!!

"Your nothing to me know, your not a friend, not family"

THe guy on the other line is like 'What the hell are you talkinga bout, you aint **** to me!!!"

 

One time a family friend decided to call all the local stores like Wal-Mart and Pamida if they had solar-powered microwaved ovens. I bet the people on the phones where like "WTH?".

 

I hope I don't get banned for saying this but...

One time, my friend Roy and I were walking to the park and one of those Ice Cream vendors was pushing his Ice Cream Cart around. Roy walks up to him and says "Hey, do you sell any Pen-De-Ho flavored Icecream......"

If you don't read spanish, then it does not matter what I wrote, right?

 

For those of you who don't know what a soundboard is, go to Google and type in soundboards in the search. They have a few celebrities and even a Darth Vader soundboard. I tried The Ladies Man soundboard on a chick at work. She wasn't too happy.

 

In the summer of 1986 or 87, I forget which, Roy and I were going on one of our Crank Calling tirades. This is when we would call houses and chant RED RUM! RED RUM! RED RUm!, and doing it non stop, day and night, just a steady stream of crank calls.

We call this one kid from school. We had been taunting him for days. But this time his dad answers.

Kids Dad- Hello

TripleB/Roy- RED RU......what, you not XXXXX! Put his fat @$$ on the phone right now!

Kids Dad- I don't think I like your tone!

Triple B/Roy- I don't give a damn what you think.

Kids Dad hangs up on us. We call back right away.

Kids Dad- Hello.

Triple B/Roy- Don't ever ******* hang up on us again you hear me or we will **** your wife like a *****

Kids Dad hangs up on us.

TripleB and Roy call up immediately again.

Kids Dad- Hello

TripleB/Roy- RED RUM, RED RUM!

Kids Dad- I AM GOING TO RIP YOUR ***** OFF AND STUFF THEM DOWN YOUR THROAT!!

TripleB/Roy- YOUR NOT GOING TO DO A GOSH DARN THING TO US!! YOU DONT EVEN KNOW WHO WE ARE!!! ANd THE ONLY PLACE OUR ***** ARE GOING IN IS YOUR WIFES MOUTH.....

That just a sampel of the little bastards me and Roy were back then.

 

We just used to dial any prefix followed by 7726. Then in our best Monty Python accent we'd say "Did you know your number is ***-SPAM!"
People usually didn't get mad because they thought it was cool that that was their number.

Then there's the one where you call up the lingerie department of a store like Sears or JC Penny.

You: "Yes, do you have anything in black leather, and maybe some chains?"

Clerk: "No, we don't carry anything like that. You might want to try a place like Fredericks of Hollywood"

You: "Fredricks of Hollywood!? Isn't this the luggage department?"

 

Ha ha, It is hilarious how much of a loser TripleB is. Not only did he make (or CLAIM to make) these idiotic calls, he is still bragging about them as an adult! HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Yep and I have fond memories of all my crank calls too!!!

 

One time, my friend Roy and I (notice how 99% of my crank calls involve Roy?) were at the arcade. We were using the phone making crank calls within the arcade when we were turning to leave. Next to the Token Machine and the door was right there. This kid put his back pack down to play PACK RAT. As we were heading out the door, I look at Roy and motion at the ground, where his backpack was.

Roy, without batting an eyelash, once he see's it, heads over and scoops it up without breaking his walking stride as we walk out the door.

ONce out the door, we turn and run for the alley to see what we have gotten.

Now, this was 1987 or 1988. We now had our hands on a CD Walkman, which back then must have been worth over a hundred dollars or so. We also find a calling card with the students name on it and such.

We head to a pay phone, start calling 976 sex numbers at first, and then later, started using the calling card to crank call, mostly with stuff that we have done in the past, with the hope that it would somehow be traced back to him and he would get in trouble.
