Yeah, no. I don't do April Fools. Never have. I fucking hate this stupid day. Everyone on the internet suddenly thinks they're a goddamn comedian.


Just let people have their harmless fun. If April Fool's were something to be seriously mad about, I still wouldn't have forgiven my father for telling me there were cinnamon rolls in the kitchen when I was ten and I ran to the kitchen and there were none. No cinnamon rolls!

I dunno, I'd say anything people enjoy and have harmless fun with isn't pointless. Otherwise music and movies would be pointless, and don't tell me you think they are.

Okay, but there's cinnamon rolls in the kitchen in case you want some.

The practical jokes surrounding April 1st often have a senseless malice about them; that's what I don't like.

You're hanging around the wrong people then. I make a point of having friends that find humor in harmless jokes and not hurtful pranks.

I have to agree with Toddy on this one.

Maybe they were more malicious when I was growing up. Who knows. I don't partake in that kind of stuff anymore so I don't think that I'll be able to find out.

April Fools is a day for mildly disappointing people, at the most inconvenience, it's not supposed to be for harmful pranks or major let downs or dropping big bombshells (pregnancy, divorce, "I cheated on you") just for them to be fake and 'jokes'.

Something sensible like telling your kid their favorite breakfast food is in the kitchen when its not - mild disappointment. Going to the flea market, buying a lawn flamingo, destroying it and then hiding the still good garden flamingo of your wife to say you ran it over and present her the broken one she likes before revealing the real one is okay. It's really a talent to craft something mildly disappointing.

Lots of people called in asking how they could grow their own spaghetti trees. The BBC told them to put a sprig of spaghetti in a tin of tomato sauce and hope for the best.
