#234 Prank call
In the beginning there was the phone. Someone phoned someone and said something. It wasn’t that hard. But it’s been a hundred-years-plus since then and suddenly there are a thousand other things to do with a phone. Order products, enter contests, have conferences and book trains.
All examples of functional things that we can benefit from. But it doesn’t always have to be that way.
Plant a playful seed in your phone and screw its proper purpose. Prank call people you don’t know. Act, pretend to be stupid, use dialects and ask questions that you already know the answer to. Why? Because you can and it's fun.
Bonus - Read Erik Erikson's literary prank calls “Brev till samhället " and "Brev till utlandet" and David's blog
