One of the biggest red flags is a person who thinks "pranks" are the height of hilarity.

I always wondered what became of bullies when they grew up. Now I know.

My ex used to say she can’t wait to have kids so she can prank them. She said she’s seen so many funny ones on TikTok. I assume she meant ones like this. I explained that pranking kids results in them not trusting you and she just disagreed and said it was funny.

"it's just a joke" is code for "I lack basic capacity for empathy."

Humor that hurts isn't funny, ever. Glad she's your ex and not your wife lol

Also admitting that they think it's hilarious to terrify children is a massive red flag

Depends on the kind of prank but generally yes you’re right.

Depends on the prank though. This is just fucked up.

Agree. When I was a kid my parents gave me an envelope labeled rattlesnake eggs. I opened it. It was booby trapped with some paperclip thing wound up with rubber bands and made a rattlesnake-esque noise when you tried opening it. As a kid I was startled but thought it was funny and couldn’t wait to watch them now do it on one of my siblings.

Just furthering your point that it depends on the prank. Some are quite tame and just goofy fun.

I think it's the total lack of understanding in what makes a prank funny as well. If the person being pranked is in genuine distress after, it's not funny. It's only funny if there's a moment of confusion followed by EVERYONE laughing

Also they think it’s okay to upload it online. What happened to keeping your kids safe? I’ve seen so many vids of pedos outing themselves in comments. Vile

Pranks can be funny when done in privacy between friends when it’s accepted by both parties. This isn’t funny or a prank. It’s just fucking with your kids and then posting it online.

they never do such "pranks" on bigger guys like Ma Dong-seok.

Bullying is more fun if there's almost no chance of retaliation!
