Pranks and jokes are part of our civilization. I live a few miles from Menlo-Atherton HS. It's an overachieving school with almost no problems. 61% of their graduates go on to attend a four year university. One prank out of four years does not make them barbarians. It makes them teenagers who carried out a well-executed plan.

More power to them.

A plan they found funny, yes. I don't find it funny at all. Then again, I was the butt of all practical jokes I've ever actually witnessed.

A plan most people are finding funny. Hell, I spent my entire school career being the butt of jokes and being the dweeb with glasses who got beaten up daily. I got over it.

*Shrug* Well, most people have much broader interpretations of humor. I find about 99% of "funny" things to not be funny at all.
