So they had to supply their own transportation. Parents or other people in the group had to bring them, but that could often prove to be a hassle for the others involved.

Victims, beware of pranks! It's Sunday morning. You've just awoken from a peaceful nights sleep. It feels like it’s going to be a beautiful day. You go to the window to look out on a glorious morning and — TER- ROR!!! Long white strands of toilet pa- per are hanging from the tops of the trees and spread throughout the whole yard. Your glorious day has just van- ished with the realization that you must spend the day cleaning up the mess that was made just hours before while you were sound asleep. Pranks like this were just normal, everyday occurances for most high school students. Some of the more common pranks included soaping cars, placing phone calls as mysterious strangers, and TPing houses. One of the more unusual pranks was picking up a parked car and moving it into the lawn, usually between two trees. So, why did people pull pranks and what made them choose you as the vic- tim? There was really no specific rea- son for participating in a prank. Usually it was just something to do when your “good friends’’ didn't have a lot of money and wanted a good laugh. “'It makes people look like a fool. You choose people who won't really care or won't get mad, ’ commented one junior who asked to remain anonymous for personal reasons. But people some- times had other ideas. Some pranks were pulled for revenge on someone who had pulled a prank on them, or on someone they disliked. Some pranks took weeks of prepara- tion to organize, but for the most part they were just spur-of-the-moment jokes. The next time you see one of your friends’ “squeezing the Charmin”, play it safe and question their motives. - Underclass 1S]
