How to Troll Your Family on Christmas Like a Total Stratolounger BOSS!

Sister Babe and I have always enjoyed prankaing each other over Christmas gifts. This year, she and Little Bob really wanted a Ringfit Adventure to play on the boy’s Nintendo Switch. So I got them one, but prepped it before wrapping it for them. Here’s a step by step guide if you want to do the same!

First, you take a bunch of screen grabs off of the site, load them into a PowerPoint deck, format for size and print.

Next, cut out the pics and strategically tape them over the box to create the appearance that “The Bill Whittle Game for Nintendo Switch” is an actual thing.

Not pictured, but a key last step before the gift wrap is to carefully wrap the entire item in Saran Wrap. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just good enough to pass initial inspection. It’s that one moment of WTF?!? that makes it worthwhile.

Finally, your gift is ready fro wrapping, with some cheesy paper from Aldi doing the trick.

Sister Babe and Little Bob are going to kick my a** tomorrow, but it will be awesome! If anyone wants the .ppt file I’m happy to share – DM me via this site’s messenging feature.

Merry Christmas, Stratoloungers!

This is brilliant, and our legal department on the 47th floor of Stratosphere Tower will be in touch about copyright infringement issues after their extended holiday break.

Sister Babe thought I spent way too much time on this effort, and Little Bob wasn’t even fooled for a second. The second he took the wrapping paper off he rebuked me wiith a “Daaaad!”
It was still worth every minute of time it took. Merry Christmas Scott to you & all of the Otters!

Those guys are so easily bribed. Last time it only took a box of Thin Mints. Oh, wait that’s what it takes to bribe me. Never mind.

Ha ha! Clever as heck, Brother Bob. I’m pranking my woke-ish son with the Babylon’s Bee’s Guide to Wokeness. I hope he takes it with the same spirit with which it’s given – poking fun at ourselves is a valuable means by which to keep it real.
