Impressionism

Title: Impressionism

Target Audience: 2 unsuspecting people, that typically know each other; yet not well

Offensive Threat: high

Scheme: This shenanigan has merited a 'high' offensive threat because while the shenanigan may be harmless; someone could take something too personally and be really upset. As mentioned above, you need to have two people that have zero idea what is about to take place. This is a pretty easy one to pull off. What you want to do for this prank is convince one person that the other does an impression of them. Naturally, the other one doesn't. They will continue to deny they do any impressions; meanwhile the impressionee is waiting nervously to see it. Here is an example of how the conversation may go. For the sake of explanation, we will name our victims War Eidsick and Stan Dardidiot.

Annoyer: Hey Stan, do your impression of War!
Stan: I don't do an impression of War
War: (visibly uncomfortable) You do an impression of me?! I want to see it.
Annoyer: Yeah, cmon Stan just do it. It's not a big deal.
Stan: Stop saying I do an impression! It's just not true!
Annoyer: War, Stan does a great impression and is just embarassed. Cmooonn Stan, just do it.

Continue with this until it gets too uncomfortable; and then laugh and walk away.

Why It’s Annoying: Nobody ever wants to have an impression done of them (except Snooki from the Jersey Shore, seriously, I have seen her being parodied atleast 150 times on the internet or TV). Therefore, for the impressionee, they are extremely uncomfortable about what people may think of them; and incredibly nervous about what the impressioner may do. For the impressioner it is annoying because they are being made out to be a major league jerk, and are getting frustrated that the annoyer just won't stop. At this point you can see how mad somebody would get.
