Oh, Internet -- you continue to host wonderful ideas for the betterment of all humankind. And then there's this.

Sometimes friends are the worst. This rowdy bunch of Norwegians (note the man smoking next to a gas can) took their friend out for his bachelor party and pulled a massive prank.

Planking. Tebowing. Milking. The latest stunt to take over the Internet is here, whether you want it or not. And this time, there's a fast food twist.

The one advantage of having super-broke roommates is that they don't have the extra cash to spring on giving your room a pretty, pretty princess makeover while you're overseas travelling. This man did not have that advantage.

Comedian Nathan Fielder is making good use of his power on Twitter. He's been coming up with a number of pranks for people to play on their parents/friends and having them send him the often-hilarious results. This time he told his legion of followers to text their parents asking if it's illegal not to tell somebody you gave them an STD and say they were asking for a friend. These are the results.

A high school student is going from hot sauce to hot water.

Steve Carell made a delightful appearance on 'Ellen' the other day. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Gru, Steve Carell's character from 'Despicable Me,' made an appearance.

It's something only Improv Everywhere could accomplish -- going on to a subway car, making a huge ruckus and not annoying every single person on the train. This time, the team set up a late night-style talk show, complete with desk, comfy chair, backdrop and band. Technically the band was just a guy with a keytar, but we'll allow it.

Have you had enough elevator pranks? Well, howzabout just one more? We promise it's a good one!

Let's close the case folks, because we've found the best video prank by far.

If you're anything like us, you probably have no idea what day it is. Well, it's Monday, April 1st. Yes, it's April Fool's Day, which means that Google is planning to pull the wool over our eyes all day long. Here are some of the pranks they're pulling, in case you are super-gullible...

You decide: are the guys in this video funny, gutsy or just plain weird, creepy and jerk-ish?

YouTuber RRyanLewis, whose favorite pastime seems to be dressing up as a plant and scaring people, is at it again. Here is his newest installment of the "Bushman" pranks.

It seems certain that last year stood as the Year of the Prank. With examples ranging from that terrifying zombie corpse to the ghostly little girl terrorizing elevator riders, we were rather nervous that 2013 wouldn't hold up. Luckily, thanks to this hoax pulled off at a beauty salon, there's still hope!
