It’s April Fool’s Day, which is traditionally a day for pulling pranks on people. We think that in itself is pretty stupid, but to honor the tradition, we went to one of our favorite places for funny pranks -PrankPlace.com.
Did you see our post last week about the Obama Miracle Toast? Well, you can make your own holy toast for just $5.99…
If you get this and sell it on E-Bay for $330, be sure to let us know
Another favorite prank of ours is fake legal notices.
Nothing like pissing your friends off so you can laugh when they notice a parking ticket on their window or think they are losing their house.
This one is especially for your friends who act like their car is the only thing that matters to them:
Yup, Fake Cling-On Bullet holes. Careful though, this one might land you in the hospital.
So that’s about all we really felt like coming up with today for stupid pranks. Besides, isn’t a lot easier for us to just tell you visit PrankPlace.com and see what they have yourself?
This is a picture of the Northway Mall in Pittsburgh, PA.
Over the past year, they have ripped out a movie theatre, 5-6 storefronts, and the entire interior enclosure that connected the stores on the north side to the south side of the mall. They replaced it with what you see in the above picture: Concrete and woodchips.
We think this was pretty stupid in a few regards:
Loss of Lease Income from the stores that were ripped out
Pittsburgh is cold and rainy 75% of the year, which means going outside to get from one side of the mall to the other side of the mall is enough to make a lot of people not shop there.
Giant patches of woodchips do nothing more than encourage kids to start kicking and throwing woodchips at you while you walk by
Abundance of bad drivers now even more confused on how to drive and where to park.
Did I mention it’s always cold in Pittsburgh and the last thing you want to do is go outside to get from one end of the mall to the other side?
This is by far one of the stupidest remodeling projects and business ideas we’ve seen in a long time. How could this be considered an improvement? We don’t even want to know what was spent to do this.
Have any stupid remodeling ideas from places where you live? Feel free to send us stories, pictures, video, etc for us to showcase by sending them to our email. If we think they’re stupid, too, we’ll post them on the site and give you full credit and a link of your choice in our post.
You may have noticed today that Google “turned the lights out” for to raise awareness for energy conservation…so they made their background black instead of white as usually expected.
For all the people who thought that a black screen on a monitor saves more energy than a white one…we give you this:
And if you’ve decided to sit in the dark with your laptop on…then you’re really missing the point…just as everyone else who thinks that sitting in the dark is going to make a real difference in your electric bill or to the electric companies.
You’d be better off to drive to Wal-mart in your SUV and get some compact fluorescent light bulbs.
Yes, it does look like Obama…but is it really a miracle? Somehow I think this one is a little hard to believe that it wasn’t done intentionally…and yet the bid has risen from $1 to $330! Are we this gullible as society or is it worse to believe that the heavens think we’re so stupid that toast it the only way to send us a message?
Next, the Nike Swoosh French Fry
The french fry itself is not as rare as one would think. Anyone who’s spent a lot of time making french fries can tell you if you leave them in the fryer too long you’re bound to get a few that get burnt and curl. Still, this does not keep the seller from asking $100,000 as a minimum bid. And he wants $10 for shipping. Go figure.
Of course, if that’s too expensive for you:
You can always get this Nike Swoosh French fry for a cool $500…again proving these fries aren’t as rare as they seem
Again as always, dumb stuff on E-Bay isn’t too hard to find To bid on these and to see more stupid things, Click here for eBay!
