The Art of the Prank

Saturday March 31, 2007
Coincidence? I think not. Just in time for April Fools' Day, infamous prankster and satirist Joey Skaggs has announced the launch of Pranks.com, a brand new blog devoted to the discussion of pranks, hoaxes, culture jamming, and reality hacking. Not to worry. Apart from promoting the Dangerous Idea that pranksterism can be a valid form of cultural criticism, the site poses no hazard to the average user. At worst you may come away with a mental wedgie, which won't hurt a bit, I promise.
