      What’s the definition of most?

      Here’s the definition of a prank:

      a practical joke or mischievous act

      A practical joke or prank is a trick played on people, generally causing the victim to experience embarrassment, perplexity, confusion, or discomfort.

      No laughter required.

        No mention of laughter even being a factor.

        I shared the part where it mentioned it being a factor.

        No, not required, but overall or most or more than half or more frequently or insert synonym here for most…

        Generally a good practical joke will have the victim to be able to laugh after the fact and not be like you assaulted me. Assault isn’t a joke.

        Since you don’t know what most means you may not know what assault means …

        violent physical attack, as with blows.

          That’s fine. The guy I was responding to was trying to argue that all pranks make everyone laugh, which is ridiculous.

            Yeah and the person I’m responding to said

            threw it as a prank

            What I’m saying, it’s it doesn’t matter the intent, assault isn’t a joke. Throwing objects that can potentially cause injury isn’t a practical joke at all.
