April Fools~

Ever played any good April Fools pranks? Ever had any played on you? Planning one? Let's talk about April Fools day.

Nothing has ever happened to me, and I've never played any pranks -_-
 
I'm really pissed right now because I had made really great plans for April Fool's Day, and guess what? I miss April Fool's Day Eve, the day I was supposed to put all those plans into action for the big day ahead.

Anyways, what I get my teachers to do every year is to give all the straight A students, the ones that always get extra credit, the kiss ups, etc. fake lunch detentions, then when they come into the teacher's classroom for lunch, I pop in and go "APRIL FOOLS!"

Also, a few years ago, I took my sister's bed, which has three blankets, and did this. I took the bottom one, which looks just like the mattress, and tucked it into the top of the mattress and put her pillow over it. Then I folded it up halfway and put the other two on top, so it looked perfectly normal. Then that night when she went to sleep, her feet wouldn't go down.

Oh, and I took the little pipe in my toilet that leads to the drain, pulled it out, and stuck it out of the thing at the top so whenever someone flushes, their pee squirts back at them. :evil:

Mwahaha.... my favorite holiday.
 
I was going to do a prank where I bought a packet of skittles and a packet of sour skittles and took them to school. Then I'd go up to someone and say 'Hey you want a skittle?' and if they said yes be like 'Ok but you HAVE to close your eyes and open your mouth and guess the flavour.' and if they did close their eyes and open their mouth, I'd get a sour skittle instead of a normal skittle and pop it into their mouth and watch them be like wtf?

But my mum didn't drive me to the store this morning :(

Then she got Skittles sensations this afternoon so I'm going to keep the red ones and randomly give them out and watch people go crazy because the red skittle from the sensations pack sets your mouth on fire. It burns so much.

So I'm pulling a post-April Fools day tomorrow.
 
I don't think anyone really does April Fool's here... is it more of an American thing?

I actually forgot. In fact, I thought of Fred and George Weasley's birthdays being today over April Fool's. o_o Sign of a geek or what...
 
Mine's a bit cruel.

This year, I made a fake Facebook account, and posted "RIP" on my original one. I won't be showing up to school tomorrow just to see what happens.

It's a cruel joke, I know. But it's not like someone in Facebook's gonna miss me much. Plus only the schoolkids will be affected; my parents and people outside school think I'm alive and well.

That is such a good prank.
 
A friend of mine told her dad this morning that she'd crashed the car and he nearly had a heart attack on the spot X3

I normally just sleep through the 1st of April, and the only reason I'm up this year is because we've got to go house-hunting ><

What planet have you been on? o_O

Nothing really interesting happened with us. This one kid said he was leaving, but he wasn't - I believed him because he originally announced it last night, so it shouldn't really have started then if it was an April Fool's.

edit: actually a bunch of my friends did run up to me shouting "April Fool's!" and then they started hitting me and rubbing crisps into my hair, but that's just like every other day really. They're such bullies. D:

One of the Business teachers at my school (or it might've been Quigley actually - STEPHEN DO YOU KNOW?) put a notice in the bulletin that everyone was to gather in the atrium at 12:50 to see the '7ft tall EGRESS'.

'EGRESS', of course, means 'exit'. It was quite good.

Oh and Quigley was wheeling around a plant. But I think that's just what he does normally.
 
Sad me, I don't have school on April 1st; it falls in Spring Break D=

But I fell for something today, anyways; my mom said she'd do my dishes. Meh. Then she yelled April Fools. Can't believe I fell for that. I think I'll do the pocket thing to my sis's bed >:3 and my parents if I get a chance, but we're not allowed in their room, so I'll wait until they're outside smoking, and my sis is somewhere else.
 
I haven't pulled any myself today, but today's the 35th anniversary of the 'Mt. Edgecumbe Eruption' hoax.

#16: The Eruption of Mount Edgecumbe
1974: Residents of Sitka, Alaska were alarmed when the long-dormant volcano neighboring them, Mount Edgecumbe, suddenly began to belch out billows of black smoke. People spilled out of their homes onto the streets to gaze up at the volcano, terrified that it was active again and might soon erupt. Luckily it turned out that man, not nature, was responsible for the smoke. A local practical joker named Porky Bickar had flown hundreds of old tires into the volcano's crater and then lit them on fire, all in a (successful) attempt to fool the city dwellers into believing that the volcano was stirring to life. According to local legend, when Mount St. Helens erupted six years later, a Sitka resident wrote to Bickar to tell him, "This time you've gone too far!"

Here's a picture of it.
 
The only good April Fools' joke I've ever made was this. I was going to do oh so many awesome things for this April Fools, but didn't have the time for any of it. :(

Definately seconded. I wonder how many people went to the page trying to get to TCoD and though "What the hell is this shit?"

It makes me smile just thinking about it.

I had an idea.

I find someone with their shoes untied, and tell them so. Since it's April Fool's Day, they'll say, "I won't fall for that."
I say, "Oh yes you will." They start to walk away, and I step on their shoelace. They fall, and I say, "Looks like you did fall for it. April Fools!"
