Pranked an Unintended Audience

I rarely do any pranks now, and before I do, I would think first about what I would feel if it were the other party that did the prank to me. In that way, I can tell if I am still doing a prank or just being a nuisance. But during my younger years, I was quite mischievous with my pranks, not really thinking about what the consequences of those actions were, as long as we could get some laughs out of it, and in doing so, I had made pranks that were out of line. Anyway, the story that I want to share was not one of those, but it certainly is close.

This story goes back to when I was still in college. Supposed to be, it was just another regular school day for me and my classmates. We study, make jokes during the break, and go home afterwards, except one member of our group was missing. At first, we thought that he was just a little bit late, so we asked him where he was, and right away, he responded that he was still on the way. Turns out it was a prank, cause he later sent an image of himself still at home. Adding salt to the wound, our professor also did not show up, making our attendance pretty much wasted since that professor holds two of our major subjects, and the next subject after that was a minor one. So, while we are infuriated with how we were not informed about our professor's absence, that classmate of ours is laughing his lungs out and keeps on teasing us while we are preparing to go home. But then, a sudden idea came to me, and convinced my friends to go along with it, so that we could get back to him.

The idea was simple. First, we download his picture on each of our phones. After that, we take a groupie with a sad face, holding our phones in front, with his picture on it. Then, on the next picture, we combined our phones together to have a bigger picture of him with the "We love You" phrase above, while we made it into a position that looks like we are mourning.
