To have pretended we had won money?

[PaperTrail]

I scratched off a scratch card and pretended that I had won £100, just joking and obviously joking. DH took it to heart it wasn't that awful was it?

Pointless.

Not funny at all. It's cruel and plain nasty.

Jesus Christ, there's a lot of overblown hand wringing on this thread.

OP, it was a spur of the moment joke that could have been funny between a couple, but unfortunately bombed. And if your DH is still sulking, tell him to get a grip of himself.

And the prank on the teacher and the mother in law one are cruel. The OPs one wasn't. It was just a bit ill thought out.

Wow... Massive over-reaction from many posters imo. "Cruel and plain nasty" "Humiliating" Really?!?

Yes, to some £100 is massive... to many it's not a big deal. If the latter then it's hardly any of the above, just a small prank.

Amazed at the 10k and recorded show.

Who in their right mind would do that. It's very, very cruel.

My mother has form for such nastiness, I remember lots of wind ups, especially around gifts. She would hold back gifts pretending not to hVe bought me what I wanted, then produce it late Christmas Day. It wasn't funny and just made me not like her. Her response would be ". You can't take a joke"

It's not funny OP, but he may have overreacted.

I want to cry at some of this cruel, cruel pranks

You sure she didn't just pocket the winnings, Acorn?

Those of you claiming cruelty and not funny under any circumstances etc blah blah blah; You're all rediculous.

I imagine it was a 2 second joke after scratching it off, not some drawn out hour long game of cruelty to torment her spouse for shits and giggles.

Get a bloody grip.

We're neither rediculous or ridiculous, Panda. You either get why it's not funny or you don't, I suppose.
God love those that don't get it, though. Definitely something missing in their make-up.

You're all rediculous.

No we are not. You might think nothing of it but by the responses on here, many would be very upset.
