A practical joke or gag is a stunt or trick to purposely make someone feel foolish or victimized, usually for humor. Practical jokes differ from confidence tricks in that the victim finds out, or is let in on, the joke rather than being fooled into handing over money or other valuables. Practical jokes or pranks are typically lighthearted and made to make people feel foolish or victimized to a certain degree, although in some practical jokes there could be an inherent strain of cruelty present.

The term "practical" refers to the fact that the joke consists of someone doing something (a practice), rather than a verbal or written joke. A practical joke can be caused by the victim falling for a prank, the victim stumbling into a prank, the prankster forcing a prank on the victim, the prankster causing others to do something to the victim, or even causing the victim to do something to others. Sometimes more than one victim is used.

In Western culture, April Fools' Day is a day traditionally dedicated to performing practical jokes. Another day common for pranks and practical jokes is Halloween, in the form of trick or treating.

A. Someone this year let off a stink bomb in the lunchroom and it was HORRIBLE, it's not even funny...well kind of LMAO I'm not really sure about pranks, but I've had friends tell me they had gotten suspended for streaking through the halls, tearing textbooks apart, setting remote controlled cars around the school, dropping stupid flyers around the school (someone put a picture of a squirrel and with the caption 'Have you seen me?' at the bottom) and things like that.

A. Oh! Put ketchup packets under the seats on a toilet and when someone sits down, the packets will explode. Did that to my brother and it was absolutely wonderful. :)
