[Mother] — Back when me n’ yer father had just gotten married, he started his lineman work. \nHe heard rumors from th’boys—you know, them tryin’ to scare him and all—and they told him about this thing. Oh, what was it?\n\n[Mother] — Um…so I think it went—there was this man. He was experienced, he’d been a \nlineman for something like ten years. But, one day, he was workin’ a pole for fifteen hours by himself. When he was comin’ down, he brushed a live wire—somethin’ was exposed or something else, I’m not too sure—but he got stuck up there. They only found him because his flesh was burnt so bad the neighbors complained about the smell. \n\n[Mother] — Oh, it was a gruesome story. But y’know, there were stories that the body went \nmissin’ after that.

Full breakdown:

The idea for Pranksters Academy originated from my mom, the ultimate mastermind and a true creative force. Her playful imagination has been a huge inspiration for me. All proceeds from this drop are shared between us, making it a fun way to introduce her to the exciting world of Web3!

Growing up as a kid, my mom was always doing funny pranks on my family. April Fools' Day was her time to shine—you knew something funny was coming, but she always managed to surprise us and leave us laughing. She’s absolutely brilliant, and I love her so much.

One of the most memorable pranks happened in our garden. We were growing zucchinis, and one day I walked outside to find one that had somehow grown to the size of a watermelon overnight! Haha. I was amazed—until I later discovered it was a watermelon. 😂 She got me good with that one!

Over a decade ago, I didn’t know it, but my mom wrote a book on pranks. All real life pranks that she has done to us growing up. A tutorial and step by step guide to prank your friends and family. She is a genius.

My mom says, “The purpose of this book is to give you ideas to prank adults. I've included examples of great pranks to play on your partner as well as pranks that my partner has played on me. There are some funny jokes that have automatically happened that will give ideas to others to make the prank come to life intentionally.”

Before my professional art career took off, while I was still developing the style you see today, I started illustrating each prank and turning them into comics. It was such a fun process—a simple 3-step guide using her words. This was our first project together and a formative experience that shaped me as an artist.

I often reflect on my childhood and how truly wonderful it was. My upbringing had such a profound impact on me, and I feel incredibly lucky to have grown up in a fun and loving family. This sense of nostalgia is woven into all of my work, deeply shaped by my mom and the way she taught me what joy and creativity are. I can’t thank her enough for that.

Pranksters Academy is paying homage to my mom and her brilliant mind. I hope these pranks bring in some humor into this space, to have fun, and to prank your own family.

Thank you to @partydao and @niftytime for the invitation to share some fun and to party it up in web3.
