I’m convinced that there are two types of people in most workplaces: those who find office pranks hilarious and those who think pranks have no place at work, ever.

I say this because I receive a surprising number of letters about pranks at work, and they inevitably provoke a flood of outraged responses from anti-prank readers, followed by a wave of replies insisting those people are killjoys who don’t understand fun.

At Slate today, I wrote about the good and bad of office pranks (including some that ended as the headline says — with the ER, vomit, or tears), and what determines how a prank at work will land. You can read it here.
