For those wondering, this played out well! OP found someone to take the job. His wife bit on the prank gleefully, was actually thrilled by the idea that OP had a son he didn’t know about. When the prank was revealed, she thought it was hilarious. Ultimately pretty wholesome, OP married a keeper.
We fired our fact-checkers, so we cannot verify whether that is true or not.
i would like to post a community note saying that i personally believe it to be true
Literally everything about it’s anecdotal so the best result a fact-checker could have is a shrug.

$500 minimum, and I’d really have to think hard about it.
$1000, done deal.
Even at $100 it’s a pretty reasonable time/compensation ratio, assuming you only have to spend like 10 minutes on actual performance time.
Of course there is potentially travel time and the overhead of communicating ahead of time to set up the prank.
May not be worth it if you have a full time job already.
Sounds like the basis of a very healthy marriage!
Dealer’s choice ehh? Let’s go with “explosive herpes”.
I really want to know how this played out
