Once it's decided how this prank call will go, I'll post a specific morning I plan on doing it. Since C-Span call in sessions are usually at around 5 in the morning, I will also record it.
I'll let everybody decide how the call will go, as long as it's legal. For instance, I can't call in a bomb threat or tell the host that I have an Ethiopian sex slave in my basement. Outside of that, I'll gladly take suggestions. If we want to do a poll on what should be said, I can arrange that as well.
If you work in the word "cosmo" I will give you 35% of my casino cash AND a rep. A positive rep. [Reply]
What is the typical forum for C-Span call-ins? Is there a host covering a topic? No moderation or delays? What is it about their format that makes prank calls more doable? [Reply]

heh, that is a very bad idea. They would probably know your number and may feel compelled to call the police in your area, and then legal shit could ensue. [Reply]

There's a ton of them on YouTube to give you an idea. The delay they have is 4 seconds I believe and is relatively easy to surpass as long as you're subtle. I've successfully prank called them twice. [Reply]

But he won't be around to care. I suppose somebody might find this thread though. Then they'd hunt us all down and label us as cyber bullies. I don't need that. [Reply]

His vote was me literally killing myself though. Legal action would be useless if I was dead. [Reply]
