April Fool's!
Replies
Wouldn't you like to know!
Nothing to see here...
Absolutely not. My family has had several emergencies, including deaths, on April Fool's day. When people called with the news, it was initially taken as a joke. I'm all for little pranks like fake snakes, etc, but practical jokes are banned on April Fool's day. The rest of the year is fair game.
We tend to forget what day it is around here, so it doesn't occur to us to have thought of something for a prank until much later.
We're such dorks.
I've always considered my life to be a prank on all those around me.
In a related vein, Girl learned to prank all by her lonesome--she has been offering things to me, pulling them away, and laughing for nine months now.
Nothing going on this year... but in past years:
- Covered a boss' cube in aluminum foil... to include all books, cds, computer, monitor, etc.
- Replaced a coworker's desktop with a screenshot of his desktop. So it looked normal but he couldn't click anything.
- Decorated our CIO's Harley Davidson with pink/purple tassles and a little purple Disney basket complete with a horn horn water bottle. It was dubbed the Disney Edition Harley by all that saw. (And took pictures)
I'm going to tell my husband that I'm pregnant again. Ha!
CJRW - you are eeeville! Hee Hee!
CJRW wins!
Perhaps I can be like that guy the article was about the other day and I can tell my wife that I'm pregnant? We would be pregnant together. Wouldn't that be nice?
Oh Derek, 2 pregnant people living in the same house? Clearly you've lost your mind.
My uncle was born on April 1st. My grandfather first thought it was a prank on my grandmothers part. Silly Grandan.
CJRW you could get a preg test and either get a preggo friend to pee on it or take a magenta sharpie and draw the two lines in.
Yes I've done this before. Actually I played this prank on my parents when Mo was about a year old.
CJRW and MttM...you are both evil.
And CJRW, if you're going to do this you should set up a video camera to get his reaction and post it on You Tube so we can all see it.
my wife took all the coffe...AND GROUNDS...to work with her today.
joke's on me.
Oh Japhy...that's horrible. But really funny.
