easy wood projects
Now I have a strange sense of humour, and up until last year, I didn’t think posting silly jokes and pranks on twitter would amount to anything, I mean who am I? nobody that’s who, I am not a celebrity, I am not famous, I am not an online force of any sorts, and I don’t have any cult followings like some folks on Twitter , no I am none of that, I am just another screen name on social media… nothing more…. oh but apparently I do have 1 teensy special ability, it’s my super power…. and that ability is… I can get you arrested and investigated for Murder…. but my ability and superpower depends GREATLY on you the Twitter follower, or Reader and your actions….
So here’s the story …. Now about a year ago I posted a simple joke on Twitter, and I assumed no one would actually DO IT !! … but alas one of my followers did actually carry out the joke… this is the Joke : Text : Okay it’s done, I hid the Body, Now what? to a completely random number and freak someone out.
Welllll a Twitter follower of mine in Saskatoon… actually carried out that joke and she sent it to a random stranger…. who as it turned out was an elderly gentleman in another town , to say that the prank text freaked him out is a big understatement!! … The Gentleman who is a concerned citizen promptly calls the RCMP and shows them the text… now the Mounties.. thinking they have a Murder on their hands, and by the sounds of the text, it may be a hit from some organized crime …. have no fear Dudley Do Right is on the Case!! and they go public with the story of a possible murder , if anyone knows anything they should assist the investigation by calling crime stoppers …. and they begin to pour resources into finding the unknown murder the body and the hitman involved so they can nail the crime organization responsible…. and all this is splashed across the local news… and camera focuses on the old gentleman who recounts his tale of terror at receiving this text message….
It took the Mighty RC’s about a week to trace the number back to a woman in Saskatoon …. and yep they arrested her ass.. and were gonna throw the book at her and charge her with Murder …. she was a 40 something year old soccer mom with a couple kids a minivan and absolutely no criminal record, not even a speeding ticket … her husband just happened to be away working… the ever diligent Fuzz patrol… called his employer to see if he was indeed still alive and at work as his wife claimed, or if she whacked him then hid his body !! needless to say her husband showed up at the cop shop in a quick hurry !
She repeatedly told the police it was a joke that was posted on twitter, she thought it was funny and just did it!needless to say @ButchCountry went dead silent for about a month…. and thankfully since I use a wireless internet Turbo stick… my IP address registers to a cell tower in Edmonton Alberta ( not sure why.. but it does , I am not an Alberta Resident) … I went silent online…. and waited for the RCMP to find me and give me the what for and escort me to the local detachment in the city. ( they never did find out who ButchCountry is , nor were they able to locate said prankster) Thank GOD!!
The RC’s raked that poor woman over the coals for 16 hours trying to get her to confess to a murder that never happened! .. all she had to say to the reporter who dogged her when the police released her was that it was a prank she read on twitter and thought it would be funny to do… she also said the person who posted the prank was an @sshole and that she will never do anything like this again.
So now I don’t post pranks and jokes on Twitter… as I learned even a nobody like me can on occasion through my superpowers… make some people think that a prank is a good one worthy of carrying out! … I never in a million years thought anyone would actually do it!
my twitter feed exploded and I went from just 400 followers to over 1000 in 1 week lol ,I keep things pretty low key on twitter , it’s a lesson learned all the way around … and yes I have thought of many other diabolical pranks that I could be posting on twitter since… and it takes me a great deal of self control NOT to post them, but i don’t want to see anyone else actually pay attention and actually pull one of my stupid pranks off… as it turns out the authorities really do not have a good sense of humour!
So that’s the story about how I learned the power of the interwebs and to mind what I say online as there are people out there crazy enough to actually do what I jokingly suggest might be funny!!
So that’s all for now, Remember Folks: express your love often,never take tomorrow for granted,and be kind to others.
