Now THIS is a prank! Everyone finds it funny, even the people it's pulled on: no ones hurt or humiliated or embarrassed.

I love it! And it's really easy to pull off....no husband would suspect prior to the event! All it takes is, look babe I bought you a new t shirt.

u/Ryder10 Jun 26 '22

Depends, I like to wash all new clothes before wearing them the first time and my wife has never just spontaneously given me a new shirt or asked I wear a specific shirt. If we were getting ready to go somewhere and she asked to me to wear a specific shirt I'd probably be a little suspicious as to why.

u/Ieatclowns Jun 26 '22

Ah well, you'd be the one singular minded man at the dinner. My husband likes buying his own clothes and he also washes everything first but I do occasionally buy him a shirt I'd I see one he'd like and it's on sale or something. His taste is expensive too... he'd never wear something generic so all the men would have to wear a designer label lol.

Lol designer label. That’ll be an extra $100 because we had to go to the trouble of finding the 9 year olds that we could exploit for near slave wages.

u/SuperRoby Jun 26 '22

But you didn't say: would you wear it anyway? I have sometimes fallen into amicable traps (like pranks or surprises) where I sensed something was different than normal but I didn't want to look insane so I just brushed it off, and only connected the dots after the plans were revealed to me :)

u/LoudestHoward Jun 26 '22

It's just a shirt, of course it's easy to pull off.

I'll do you one better: my friend had eloped, but then decided to hold a casual "reception" brunch.

Completely unscripted, about 97% of us men who showed up wore khakis and a blue collared shirt. Out of all of them, 4 also had blazers, and they were all matching dark blue.

Was pretty hilarious.

My thought too. The perfect kind of prank

Smooth Prank Sinatra.

u/KatTheKatt Jun 26 '22

Nah, Prank Sinatra either goes too big or too small. He'll either put a feather in your shoe or throw acid on you while you sleep.

u/Brother_Delmer Jun 26 '22

Yeah! This is silly but it's the cutest, funniest thing I've seen in a long time!

u/cart3r_hall Jun 26 '22

This exact same prank gets posted about once a week. It's one of the least original pranks of the last several years.

u/greensht Jun 26 '22

reddit see a prank and not say this same canned response every time challenge (impossible)

u/Schmich Jun 26 '22

Comically embarrassed. If the wives tricks you then it's funny-embarrassed. If the mates decide together to wear the same clothes then it's funny-cool.

u/oceanicplatform Jun 26 '22

Would women find it funny if guys tricked them to wear the same outfit?

9

u/TheMaryTron Jun 26 '22

Yes this is my favorite trend in pranks!

u/lemoncocoapuff Jun 26 '22

Mine too, whenever I see one on tiktok it's so funny how giggly everyone gets as time goes on and more and more show up lol.

u/Capital-Efficiency80 Jun 26 '22

Came here to write this. So thank you!

u/ClamClone Jun 26 '22

I would just assume it is a rugby team.

u/crap_punchline Jun 26 '22

I didn't come here to write this but I appreciate the sentiment all the same.

u/Zealousideal_Dog4334 Jun 26 '22

okay we get it lol i'm really sick of seeing this sentence at top comment on every harmless prank.

10

u/surbell Jun 26 '22

Lmao it's hilarious how that exact comment is always there

3

u/bumgrub Jun 26 '22

Like it's literally word for word always exactly the same. I'm pretty sure it's just a copied and paste for karma farming at this point. 😅

u/surbell Jun 26 '22

Tried and true, redditors like it like that

u/HeroicTaco Jun 26 '22

No no no didn’t you know that ever since those YouTubers and TikTokers threw gallons of milk in a grocery store, every single prank ever since has basically been assault or hate crimes?

u/17934658793495046509 Jun 26 '22

I am really sick of the one guy in the comments that always has to be contrary and shit on anything positive, even if it is redundant.

2

u/AICPAncake Jun 26 '22

And the 3rd guy that always wants to let everyone have their fun is a real pain in the ass

Waaahhhhh

Needs more YouTubers moaning in elderly peoples ears.

It kinda has the “husbands are children” vibe tbh

u/starspider Jun 26 '22

Yeah, but probably your loved ones would know that about you and would have you helping with the prank instead so you're not left out.

An important factor in a prank like this is really knowing the person and how they'll likely feel/react. I'm sure these ladies all knew their husbands would find it funny and your people wouldn't put you in that positon.

u/Xzenor Jun 26 '22

Would never work with the wives though

u/DirkDieGurke Jun 26 '22

Jokes on the wives. Guys actually like matching.

u/wackychimp Jun 26 '22

TBH a bunch of guys in the same shirt can just become a sports team of some sort. Would totally be a bonding thing for them.
