For example, text your friend something like, “I had the craziest thing happen to me today!” Wait until they respond with “What?” Then, text the “text in progress gif” so they have to sit and wait anxiously for a response that won’t come.
Make sure the fart app you download is free. You don’t want to spend your friend’s money just to troll them.
For example, have Siri call your friend by a silly nickname. You can also have Siri call your friend by a long, complicated version of their name.
The precise means to take screenshots, move icons, and change backgrounds varies depending on the type of phone your friend has. If you’re unsure how to work your friend’s phone, look this up online quickly while you’re altering their phone.
You can also find other random things to sign your friend up for so they receive random text messages. Just make sure any of the sites you use are free. You don’t want to stick your friend with an unexpected phone bill.
You can even go as far as to tag your friend in posts to make sure they see. For example, tag your friend saying something like, “Thinking of you! Know how much you’ve always wanted to go here. "
However, make sure not to tag your friend in a way that could be read as offensive. A friend who’s sensitive about their weight, for example, may take offense if you tag them as a cow in a picture. Instead, tag them as something completely random, like a shoe.
You can pick completely random pages. For example, add your friend to a page called “I Love Goats. " You can also add your friend to pages expressing opinions or tastes your friend disagrees with. For example, maybe your friend hates Ayn Rand. Have them join an Ayn Rand fan page on Facebook.
For example, leave a message that looks out of context. Send them a Tweet saying something like, “Wow, that was epic. Never heard you laugh that hard!” Your friend will be left guessing what you’re referencing.
Make sure the content is appropriate, however. Avoid posting any NSFW (not safe for work) content or foul language.
For example, does your friend love a particular band? Send them a fake news story saying that band broke up to mess with them. Keep in mind, your friend may not believe the news story for more than a few minutes. However, it can be a fun way to troll them, even if it’s only for a minute or two.
You can also send the meme to your friend and claim that you found it on a big website, like imgur, so your friend thinks their photograph is becoming a popular meme online. Make sure you don’t let your friend believe this for too long, however, as you don’t want to cause your friend distress.
For example, call your friend pretending to be from a credit card company or collections agency. Confess it’s you before your friend gets too upset, however. Trolling should be lighthearted and you don’t want to truly upset your friend.
