What y’all doin’ for April Fools?
I’m considering putting rocks in my kids shoes and maybe some old underwear in their school bags... maybe putting some food colouring in the milk.
What do you have planned for this morning’s festivities?

I might put some big rocks in my kids school bags too.
I wish I had some corona beer empties. I would put their apple juice in them in their lunch kits and send them with a bottle opener...

When I was little I replaced the sugar in the sugar bowl with salt.
Didn’t go over well with dad’s morning coffee. |

Celebrating grandson #2's second birthday. No pranks, especially since it's currently just me out in the country with the dog. The missus is at the daughter's house with the grandkids.

Remembering. My dad passed two years ago on this day. I still think of him almost everyday.

Same things I will for for April 2nd, 3rd and 4th and so on.
Very few April Fools pranks are funny to all involved. I never understood making someone mad and trying to say it was a prank. YMMV.

I've got nothin' but the LPL posted a little gag this morning. Sort of funny about halfway through when he talks about his dad.

Quote:
There are people that go to haunted houses for Halloween and watch scary movies because they enjoy being scared. There are people that if you scare them, they don't like it and they get angry. Prank recipients can be the same. Some are OK with a prank and some are not. Some pranks can go too far, and some do not, and the line of "too far" will greatly depend upon the recipient. Some folks will think that any prank is too far. Some will be fine even if the prank hurts.

Me to...retina specialist today. Probably going to get a poke in the eyeball with a sharp needle. This sort of kills the urge to be a jokester.
