Hey, Willard, a prank is when you jump from behind a wall and yell, "Boo!"

If you then jump the person, hold them down, and cut their hair against their will...that's assault.

Any questions?

Short-sheeting beds, filling a dorm room with balloons, stealing the distributor rotor out of your buddy's car, taking all of a guy friend's underwear and sewing the flies shut. We did all those things. Even the "victims" thought they were funny once the surprise wore off. With all the crazy, drunken shit we did, we never assaulted, hurt or even scared anyone.

What Mittens did wasn't a juvenile prank. And the way he talks about it now makes it even worse.
