Today, my wife and I decided it would be funny to pull a prank on her family who we were going to see for dinner. I hid in the foyer while she went in and announced to her parents that she was leaving me. I watched as her mother hugged her daughter and cried "Finally..." FML

You have some odd ideas of what constitutes a prank...

Well I saw that one coming. I hope that was the moment you jumped out so you didn't have to hear all the stuff they were probably about to say. "Finally... you're leaving that asshole Jeff, remember when he tried to play that prank last year at your Grandpas wedding and he had a heart attack?" Let's hope we learned something here.

Not sure if real or just trolling.

Idiot. :P No wonder her family doesn't like you. Who would be stupid enough to pull a prank like this one? It needs to be a little more unlikely for it to be a prank. Like #18 suggested. You need to actually convince somebody of something.

Pretend like you left a suicide note and stage everything

In-Laws can be difficult and rough, but the big thing is what was your wife's response? Did she quickly set her mother straight on the matter or go along with it? I would feel more pain in my wife went along with it.
