Last night I was smoking a cigar when the phone rang. It was a prank call so I dialed * 69 and got the phone number. This morning I conducted a "people search" online using the phone number. I got the name and address of the house.
Should I use a pay phone to call them and tell them that they shouldn't prank people because some people could be smoking a cigar at that point?

And add that they never know who they are calling and some people now in possession of their address may react rather poorly when their cigar is interrupted.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

I'm 28 and married. About 10 - 11 years ago when me and wife were dating she received two prank phone calls. First off the idiots left the calls on the answering machine. The prank was to let my wife know that I was a father of two and that I had another kid on the way. The second message was to warn her to stay away from me or else...During this calls, I could hear giggling and people in the background whispering things. I took the message tape home(yes..no digital machines back then)and listened to it on headphones. I made out some names that were being said and found out that they knew some of my friends by name. I had a neighbor at the time that lived next to me and she worked for Bell Atlantic. I gave her my wife's home number and the times that the calls occured. She came back the next day with an address. So, I went there with my wife and met the mother of the pranker. We let her listen to the tape and meanwhile..the father was arriving from work. Then...the girl (my wife's ex friend) got home from school. What I witnessed there after..was the worse ass whipping that I've ever seen. This girl had her ass handed to her. We immediatley left..I had to laugh with pleasure. Then the tape was shipped off to the parent of the other girl that was involved and she too had her ass handed to her...that we heard over the phone. Thought you guys would enjoy this story.

I love making prank calls. There was this guy that we used to prank call repeatedly over the years. We simply called him "the guy." He was funny as hell. You couldn't ask for a better victim. This was before the time of cell phones, caller ID, *69, etc... He would actually yell at us and threaten to hunt us down and kill us. We left him in peace for about 2 years so he would think we forgot. Then we called up in the middle of the night again and my friend says, "we're back biiitch." The guy went ballistic. That was the funniest call I ever heard. I am glad that he didn't have a neighbor that worked at the phone company.
Hard work may pay off eventually but laziness always pays off now.

I had a call one time on my cell phone. the guy was just being a idiot talking crap. but he was such a dumb A$$ cause he was calling from his office and his number showed up on my phone. so after three calls in a row while i was working i got fed up and called him back. When he anwsered the phone he sounded quite professional, turned out he worked for the city. i just said," hey dipsh-t, ever heard of caller ID?? think about it next time." then i hung up.
Next i called a freind who worked for the city but in a different dept, and got the name of the director of that dept and contacted him about how the city resources were being abused.
My buddy told me later that the guy got fired.
now thats funny.

About 6 months ago before my mother-in-law died (she was extremely sick) our phone rang at 4 o'clock in the morning. Woken up, I expected to hear that my mother-in-law died or something.
It turned out to be a drunk who dialed the wrong number, but I couldn't get back to sleep. It really shook me up because usually the phone ringing in the middle of the night is not good news.
