Happy April Fools Day!!

Are you doing anything for April Fools Day? What is the best joke that was ever played on you or that you played on someone else?

Re: QOTD 4/1

  • I am not that creative when it comes to jokes so I don't usually play them on other people.

    I have heard some good ones on the radio like one year they said that zebra muscles were coming up people's toilets so to get rid of them you have to flush peanut butter down the toilet. They also did one where they said there was an old ship that washed up on the west shore of the Hudson River and people were finding Spanish coins.

    Then there's my dad. He would always try something. The one that I remember is when my mom bought me tickets to go see New Kids on the Block and my dad teld me that he was really sorry but the concert was canceled. He's mean!! Lol

  • Nope!  I hate being tricked, and I'm super gullible.  So this is basically the worst "holiday" for me.

    I hate April Fool's day.  I've never liked pranking or being pranked so I don't participate.  When i was a kid my grandpa would give my brothers and I an envelope and say there was money in it, but it was actually empty.  We knew it was empty but humored him anyway.

    I don't like seeing people post fake pregnancy statuses on Facebook...and that happens a lot!

    EDIT: just saw this on Facebook and it's a pretty clever joke

  • I am terrible at pranking people!  I hate pranks being pulled on me.  I know DH is cooking something up for tonight, he always gets me!

    I actually posted a picture about this yesterday. My best friend has been struggling with infertility for several years and another friend of ours lost their 4 month old daughter in December. The picture is below:

  • I am not creative enough. I don't really like April fools. Usually pranks are just cruel!

  • I saw your post yesterday @WillyH19 and I loved it!  We had some friends play that joke last year and it was very hurtful.

    I don't usually do any pranks for April Fools.  I can't keep a straight face long enough to play out the joke.  Thankfully no one has fooled me in the last several years either.

  • Meh. I could care less about April Fool's Day. I find a lot of the jokes (pregnancy or whatever) tasteless so that has a lot to do with it.

  • It's snowing again.  I hope this is just Minnesota's April Fools joke.  I'm totally over it!  I think Winter needs to butt out of Spring's business!
  • I'm not incredibly creative, so I never think of anything good.

    I agree about the pregnancy jokes, they are cruel.  A friend had a good blog post shared about it before.  When I clicked back to my Facebook home page, the first post was someone's "I'm pregnant" post.  It was distasteful.

    I did see a good one today on Facebook from a friend who wrote that her and her family were unable to use their 2 week vacation rental in the Bahamas and they were willing to give it away for free.  I actually fell for it...Luckily, I didn't comment because I would be unable to travel this summer.
  • I don't play any jokes, I would never be able to keep a straight face. Also I'm super gullible so I'm not even commenting on posts today on Facebook in case they are jokes lol
