Synopsis

Once upon a time, prank phone calls were the best way to procrastinate, but in 2015, they're so passé. Instead, Matt Andrews has mastered the art of prank texting. What happens when you offer to barter two sub-sandwiches for a used motorcycle? Who do you call when you want to build a mysterious man cave in your basement? What do you do if you need a knight in shining armor to deliver you to your high school reunion? If you've ever left a "contact me" pull-tab at your local grocery or posted an ad on Craigslist and received insane and unbelievable text messages in response, Andrews is very likely to blame. We'd be mad at him if we could stop laughing long enough to hit "send" on the exceptionally witty come back we thought of...too bad he's already moved on to his next target and deleted us from his phone, now only to be remembered in these pages of his laugh-out-loud funny book.

About this title

About the Author

MATT ANDREWS is a reformed loser and full-time hooligan. It started during an exceptionally boring shift at the smart phone kiosk where he used to work in the mall. With ample time to procrastinate, Matt decided to check out Craigslist. He saw an ad requesting the reader to text a personal cell phone number for more information, and thus his prank text empire was born. The public have taken to the blog like moths to the flame on sites including BuzzFeed, Reddit, The Huffington Post, and others.
