Parents sending care packages to college students usually brings joy, but for one freshman in Bucharest, it turned into an unexpected prank. Eagerly awaiting a promised package, the student received a large box at the train station. Excitedly opening it in his dorm, he discovered it filled with trash and wrappers. Perplexed, a note inside explained the prank: “You neglected to tidy up your room before leaving. Please take away the trash.”
Despite the initial shock, the student took the prank in good humor. Sharing the incident on Facebook, his post quickly went viral, gaining thousands of likes and comments. The practical joke highlighted the playful side of parental relationships, showing that parents, whether sending treats or pranks, find joy in connecting with their college-bound children. The post’s popularity reflected how humor and lessons in responsibility resonate with a broader audience, turning a simple prank into a viral sensation.
