Pranks are perfect to lighten the mood of a terrible day in prison. Work. Fuckever.

Changing the letters on a keyboard or putting a nice wet condom in a coworker’s grilled Reuben elicits a hearty giggle and a fist-shake “I’ll get you next time” that lightens the poo-poo mood in the cubicles.

Minimum Rage has enlisted the help of Amir and Streeter from College Humor and the new MTV show Pranked to discuss office chicanery and other random topics.

This is said interview.

1) How can I pull off an office prank without getting fired?

Amir: Real easy: Don’t get caught! Or, prank somebody WITH your boss. He’s not going to fire you if he helped you!

2) Got any good office prank examples?

Streeter: We have this one clip on the show that’s such a great prank it’s almost an anti-prank. This guy goes on a business trip and while he’s away his co-workers build a house – a full house with windows, doors, shingles, etc. – over his cubicle. So he comes back to find a little house where his boring desk used to be which, in a way, is pretty cool for him.

3) Who is a funnier office target; the new person who thinks this job will be awesome or the “lifer” who dies a little inside every time they show up for work?

Streeter: Oh man, tough one. I think a rookie usually makes for a better target of a broad, hazing-style prank because of their trusting nature. However, a lifer is more fun because you can tailor a prank specifically to them. For instance, I could rip on an intern and get a laugh but I’d rather take the time to cover my co-worker Sarah’s desk with little rolled up pieces of paper which she hates more than anything in the world. When you know someone really well it’s a lot easier to really burn them.

4) My boss expects me to show up for work every day and be productive, this is a prank right?

Amir: Definitely. There’s no way you have to come in on the weekends. And as for the “productivity” thing. That’s bullshit too.

5) There is a lunch that has been sitting in the fridge since Reagan died. Should I use it in a prank?

Amir: Wait until they can resuscitate Ronny and give it to him. He’ll be so confused, he’ll eat anything!

6) Do talkie about the show here.

Streeter: Pranked is a clip show hosted by Amir and I that airs on MTV every Thursday night at 10:30. We find the best online pranks and give commentary on them. It’s kind of like America’s Funniest Home Videos except we don’t have any sound effects and Amir and I are no match for Bob Saget. Also, there’s no prize for the “winner” besides being embarrassed on TV.

Check out the entire ‘See You Thursday’ lineup with Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory at 9:00pm ET/PT, Bully Beatdown at 9:30pm ET/PT, Nitro Circus at 10:00pm ET/PT and Pranked at 10:30pm ET/PT only on MTV.
