      So true! One of the most memorable characters. He's exactly the type that would actually think it's good and hilarious.

    Completely random but relevant aside; but the best prank device I've ever used is a voice jammer. It's literally just a microphone that repeats whatever you say into it with a second or so delay. If you point it at someone, it messes with their brain and renders them unable to speak. Of course, it's more of a party gag than a prank since the person has to agree to wear headphones for it to work effectively. (402) How to Make Someone Sound Like an Idiot - CZcams

  • @robertmcelwaine7024
    @robertmcelwaine7024 Před 7 lety +10

    I liked the first series as it bordered had the white balance of quirk black comedy and the macabre and sinister. However with the second series they lost that balance and it just became more creepy and sinister than funny. And I gave up entirely on the third series after a couple of episodes. Despite an sublime scenario where an elderly man was roping his friends in to rehearsing his own funeral it was otherwise crap.
