Bot Contest

It's harder to do that sort of thing now that a lot of people have Caller ID. Not that I ever called random people before...

One and a half Explainations---

Original prank:
Caller: "Do you have Prince Albert in a can?"
(Prince Albert was a popular tobacco brand that came in a can)
Shop Owner: "Yes"
Caller: "You'd better let him out he's suffocating"

Another northern variation was "You got Pop in a bottle?" Likewise, in the deep south, at local stores that sold pickled eggs and pork brains it was common for kids to stick their heads in and call out "Y'all got any brains?"

Prince Albert is now also the name of a certain male genital piercing.

Now reread my last post.
----addition----
I just realized that I skipped over Jbryanc's explaination. sorry

One night while getting drunk with my cousin (yes the lesbian, not that it matters ) we ended up having a rather profound conversation about British royalty being in boxes and cans and stuff. We were talking about Prince Albert being in a can and King Edward or Prince Edward or whatever the hell it's called (a type of cigars I think) being in a box, and the problems with modern society. Then I wandered off to write a story that made no sense, and my cousin moved on to taping a monologue about "essential toeness". You think I'm weird NOW, you should see me drunk.

uh oh, a drunk, purple slimy thing? sounds like real fun

When my brother was little, he used to call bowling centers and ask "Do you have 10-pound balls?" Of course they'd say yes, and he'd go, "How do you walk?"

Please do not ask me to translate that to stones or kilograms.

big stones or small ones?

I knew that was coming...

You can have a lot of fun with first impressions when there's no risk of embarassment. Here's an idea for the next time you're meeting someone that you'll never see again:

Come up to them while looking around as if paranoid, and act as if you're endlessly fingering something with both hands(think gollum in LOTR; "my precious"). Then look at them, pretend as if it's the first time you've noticed them, gasp extragavantly, and give them a huge bear hug while laughing like a retard or escaped lunatic asylum patient. Hold the hug for a good 2 or 3 times as long as a normal hug, and slowly bring your hand across their back and make your finger "crawl" across their neck and delve into their ear. Other ideas include licking their hand instead of kissing it(maybe licking it again afterwards, then licking your lips), and making stupid noises instead of talking.

Some good examples of people pretending to be retarded are in Mo' Money and a movie(its name escapes me) with Steve Martin as a con artist.

Here's another good one. When in a public place with a friend who's just as weird as you are (the grocery store works well), make up small tidbits of weird conversations and say them just as a stranger walks by. My mom & aunt used to do this all the time. They had people wondering what exactly they were intending to do with that crisco for years.

I do that all the time! haha It's great! But only around people you've never seen before

Naturally.
