I’m not big on April Fool’s - usually forget it unless someone mentions it, but this is a short sum up to my son being late to class in HS. We were in a minor fender bender on the way, (not my fault), but son hit his elbow on the stick. Just a bruise, but when he showed up in class at first the teacher laughed because she thought it he was coming up with a great excuse for being late to class. Then, poor thing, felt horrible when she realized he was telling the truth. - it’s a family joke now that doesn’t come across as funny in the reading.
That said, it’s the only semi-funny story I know - Is there any great April Fool’s jokes you’ve had or done? I think usually they are flops.
I prefer chaos to the usually dumb Fool’s day jokes… chaos is the funnv- [insert Ian Malcom gif on Chaos Theory] followed by dinosaur chasing him while wounded.
You bare the Crest of chaos today… though many will see it as harmful, others wont. The only thing to do is to revel in it despite the outcome. Be it good or bad if you did just simply leave them like how the picture indicates… random tubes of toothpaste and random decreamed oreo out in the open in the break room is sure enough to let panic set in with no other was touched.
Letting one’s mind deep dive into itself can be just as chaotic lol.
That would be fun. Trick them into thinking something did happen, when nothing happened.
Alas, I did not go that route. I only did it to about 9 or 10 total oreos. I wanted some people to grab some and have nothing happen. Some people to grab some and have 1 bad oreo. But unsure what happened because the others they grabbed were fine.
I didnt want to go too hard and the first person scare everyone else off from getting any.
one time on april fool’s day i went grocery shopping and forgot to get my ex’s chips she wanted and she screamed at me for 45 minutes and threw dinner plates and a blender at me lol it was a good joke you had to be there
In 2018 I posted to FB around 9pm that our housing application for home ownership and moving forward with dual citizenship status process had been approved. We were moving to Sydney, Australia in 6 months. Let me tell ya. I rarely hear from my extended family, but within minutes everyone had me on the phone.
Did they ask how we were doing? No. Did they ask when they could come visit us? Yes.
Joke was on me, really - fully seeing that the lot of them only want to contact me for cool vacation digs. The jerks. I waited 48 hours to put the joke to rest and crush their travel destination dreams.
One year I had a bad flu and was kind of out of it with a high fever and completely forgot it was April 1st… so when I got 2 emails, one from Square Enix saying they are releasing an app for FFXIV where you can harvest materials in the real world (kind of like pokeman go) and another from… was it NC Soft? I can’t remember now. But they said they were making some sort of MMORPG themed theme park and I was so confused and wondering if I slipped into another, cooler dimension or something.
couple years back I ran into the office and told my boss that I got off the forklift and forgot to put the break on, and it rolled off and out of the bay door and now it is upside down in the parking lot, almost gave the poor dude a heart attack as he ran out to see , it did not even click to him that it was April fools day , he was pissed at first but laughs about it now thank goodness.
As I’ve said my boss has no sense of humor. He’d probably just fire us for real because a joke is not professional.
We have to be careful all the time around patients because in our job there are no holidays and their concerns are serious 100% of the time.
i did tell my partner that I refoosed to get out of my car because I didn’t feel good and then he proceeds to tell me we have to leave now long distance as well a bunch of calls.
Then we proceed to get our usual one down the road. I was like uh huh…sure. Then my other manager comes in saying we have to do monthly checks…and she wasn’t joking
Uh, you do know that toothpaste comes with a “do not ingest” warning because fluoride is technically a poison, right? I don’t mean this in the “conspiracy theory fluoride stare” sense, but in a very literal sense that it can disrupt your endocrine system if enough is ingested.
I mean, yeah that much isn’t probably going to do much and most will probably just spit it out, but this can technically be construed as poisoning if someone wanted to push the issue and they happened to catch who did it.
