I told my older two kids I heard newborn baby kittens crying. They searched the basement where my semi feral Mamma ( Baby) is. It took them about ten minutes, then they remembered I had her spayed last september.
They were a little disappointed the babies weren't real.


I thought my oldest was joking when she told me she cut her finger. Unfortunately It was real. I took her to the Er. They glued it back together.

I did hear a bit about some funny birthday announcements, Craven Moorehed, Anita Massengill, Mike Hunt, and some others I forgot, but they were actually read on the morning news somewhere

Actually 5 years ago my parents tricked me when they told me i was going to lease a horse (not Joe, his name was Andrew) and i didnt believe them!
But I am awful at coming up with April Fools jokes, most people can see right through me!

I texted my daughter that I was in jail!


Well, I sort of was. I was doing that lock up thing for Muscular Dystrophy where you get "locked up" and raise "bail" for Jerry's Kids.

Partially melted some Tootsie Rolls so I could mold them to look like a pile of cat poo, then put them in each of family member's slippers!
Since they all wake up at different times, I got to hear
"THOSE
CATS!!!" three times over this morning.


Every year for April Fools - starting in the fifth grade until I was about nineteen - I would tell my Mom that I was pregnant. She fell for it every. single. time! And it's so funny because we both knew it was not my character.. not to mention I did the exact same thing every year.. but she's so gullible she'd get out a "WHAAATTT?!?!" before it dawned on her.

well, this didnt happen today but i did see this at an old place i worked at a few years back, its funny but plaese no one repeat it!.....

the lads would all gather in the canteen everyday for tea at 11am, and they use to bring a huge piece of brown paper up from the workshop and tape it over the door to the canteen, they would then encourage this one guy to burst through it in a super hero kinda way, andway they kept this up for a week.....

then on the last day, they put the coke machine on the other side of the paper and SPLAT he didnt make it through that time! fortunately he did find it hilarious and didnt hurt himself as he was a big fella!

please dont try that guys!

i can remember having a trick played on me when i was 16 working in a local chinese restaurant, i was doing some dishes and the water was quite mirky, so i put my hand in to pull the plug and there was a lobster in there! i screamed like a girl!!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! lol

I didn't really have time to today, but the past two years I have put clear scotch tape around the veggie sprayer on the kitchen sink so you can't see it and faced it at the middle of the sink so that when my husband turned the water on he would get sprayed. He fell for it both times, and of course I died laughing. The first time he was completely p*ssed until he saw me laughing and understood what happened. The second time he initially got mad but immediately knew what I had done. lol

About 20 years ago, our local paper pulled a prank on everyone who got the paper. As you know, Sacramento is the capital of California. Well, on April Fool's Day one year, they had a big write-up on the front page of the paper that California was going to be split in half. Sacramento would remain the capital of North California and our city, Bakersfield, was going to be the capital of South California! It had me going for awhile until I realized the date. My Mom was fooled by it as was a lot of other people!

MAN I wish what happened today was an April Fool's day joke!

At the clinic I work at we have older dog runs that you HAVE to latch shut or the dogs can push the doors open. My sister, a vet tech, forgot to latch the door last night on a dog that was in for wicked nasty diarrhea. I could smell it when I walked into the building and when I turned on the lights found blood on the floor. The dog had gotten out, had a huge puddle of just liquid nastyness in the treatment area, he peed in one of the exam rooms and tracked blood all over because he pulled apart his IV line. I called my sister immediatley to ask if she had forgotten to latch the door and the first thing she says is "Oh this is an april fool's day joke!" I was like... "I wish it was!" Luckily she lives like... a block away and came and helped us clean the place up. The dog was fine, we got his IV line flowing again and he was able to go home today but MAN was it quite the wake up this morning!

I moved my SO's car to a different parking spot, replaced one of his movies with a blank disc, took a battery out of his mouse, and stole the idea about taping up the faucet!
Don't worry, he likes pranks and had fun discovering them.

Actually, we DID get married on April Fools Day.
Our fourth anniversary was yesterday. We eloped on April Fools Day four years ago and then teased various friends about the fact that we got married for weeks. We had to show them our marriage license for them to actually believe us (they didn't believe us originally because it was April Fools Day). We enjoy our silly anniversary.

Ohh I love pranks! I didn't play any this year - I was too busy!

I remember one year in particular when my friend and I planned this joke on her mum - we wrote up a letter from the phone company saying that they were cleaning out the phone lines and to please put a plastic bag on the handset as they were blowing the dust out through the handsets.

She was so angry - not at us, but at the phone company. She rang them blasting them for their joke.

We finally told her it was us and she laughed so hard she cried.
