Website design By BotEap.comLike many jokes, funny text-to-speech tricks and pranks start out of frustration. It’s during those frustrating moments when he’s trying to fix a computer error that he sees an opportunity to make humor out of the malfunction. A good example of this is Spell Catcher. Spell Catcher watches what he is typing in each program and then corrects or speaks his spelling errors as he makes them. Spell Catcher runs on Mac and Windows and plays a sound when you make spelling and grammar mistakes. It’s noticeable for annoying co-workers, especially with the weird sounds the program makes. One can alter the sound it makes to be very loud or very unique/uncomfortable.

There are plenty of opportunities for pranksters to use text-to-speech programs to make prank calls to their unsuspecting victims. The generated voices can be modified to highlight the effect one would like to send.

Then, before the meeting, set up your wireless keyboard on your co-worker’s computer. Explain to him that the software needs a sample sound to recognize his voice. While you’re making your demo sound, have a co-worker type gibberish into a text-to-sound program so that the computer says completely different things than expected. Watch with glee as your target begins to get frustrated, speaks louder and alters his pronunciation as he tries to make it work. A great prank if done correctly.

Just wait until he and the others are around you and then have a bunch of junk ready to go. Fire up your text-to-speech software and let your computer break the lens. I’ve personally done this and it was hilarious…
