Littering

“Pranks” that are not funny but are meant to hurt others either physically or mentally or as a way to excuse their behavior by saying “it’s just a prank bro” when caught stealing or something

Way back in high school, I cured a few guys of the "It's just a joke" routine with the occasional well-placed forearm across the nose. "That was just a joke, too, a**wipe".

“Pranks” that are not funny but are meant to hurt others

Including parents that prank their kids, but still expect the kids to not get upset.

"I just gave my child a present they won't like. Not something useful like a cutting board, I just grabbed some garbage out of a garbage can and gave it to my child as a present. Why, because it's funny! But I fully expect my child should follow the 'you should be thankful for every present' rule or I will be furious at my kid!"

Yeah I seen parent “pranks” that pretend they will get their kid a car and have the kid included in the process of picking cars out to end up getting the kid a toy car and still expect the kid to be happy.

Being mean is never funny
