My friend and I were goofing around with skype, calling each other and then someones real phone to talk to them and whatnot. Then we made the discovery you can mute yourself so no one can hear you but you can hear them. Then we also made the discovery that you can call two people at once.

With these two powers combined, we came up with an amazing idea. We could call two people at once, then mute ourselves, and when they pick up, it would be like they called each other.... but they didnt..... and much hilarity ensued.

However, we upped the ante by doing the following: Calling a local McDonalds and a local Burger King from the same area.

McDonalds and BK

My friends did something like that about 15 years ago with 3-way calling and 2 pizza restaurants. They called restaurant 1 and asked the price of a large pizza. They said $10. Then put them on hold. They then called restaurant 2 and after they picked up, he conferenced them in and asked the question again. One said $10 and the other $9. They then proceeded to fight over the price. It was pretty funny!
