    April Fools Day 2012

    It's that time of year again, so what are some jokes and/or pranks you've pulled or had pulled on you? What are some good ones done by various websites? So far the best one I've seen is YouTube's:

    Re: April Fools Day 2012

    I find myself being very careful on days like this, not believing anything, though last year was kind of funny. My ex, who I lived with at the time, was on the computer downstais, and told me that he was glad the weather was going to ruin the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, which took place in June that year, as he had read a report that it was going to snow on that day. Of course, I was on the ball and put him right. We later pulled a prank on his parents that he had won a substantial amount on a lottery scratchcard, which they fell for.

    This year, I was going to convince my parents that I was pregnant (like one of my friends, who happens to be a lesbian, did last year with her mum) but I don't think my dad would find that very funny. When I was a kid, I told him there was a leak in the ceiling outside the bathroom where the water tank was, which he fell for. The only reason he did fall for it is because there really was a leak a few weeks prior, although I didn't realise that at the time.

    Tradition dictates that April Fool's pranks must be played before mid-day, which is a bit of a bummer as I don't start work until 5 this afternoon. I was looking forward to fooling customers into thinking we don't serve breakfasts, under 18s, Big Macs etc., or telling drive-thru customers they have to order at a non-existant order point. That would have been fun, .

    None better than Adult Swim becoming Toonami for a night and mostly running old Toonami episodes along with Tom, who they got Steve Blum back to actually do new voice work for him. It was the best April Fool's Day I've had and I'd imagine for quite a few others too.

    They ran Bleach, DBZ (Gohan killing Cell), Gundam Wing (Heero self-destructs), Tenchi Muyo Ryoo-oki (final episode), Outlaw Star (second to last episode), Trigun (the last episode with Wolfwood), Blue Sub No. 6 (first episode I think), Yu Yu Hakusho (third to last episode), Astro Boy and Go-something.

    It was pretty amazing to behold, especially when I was only planning on watching the new episode Bleach only to be surprised by seeing Tom back after being gone for like 5 years. They even ran their old AMVs and did a game review.

    Just like the good old days.

    New driver at Dominos was cutting pizza and another driver yelled out about a tow truck driving by. I told her her car was being towed but quickly said it wasn't. She flipped.

    At my work, someone from another Domino's called my store saying the inspector was coming for our review. It freaked out a lot of people and they ran around to start cleaning everything. I just laughed because I was running the shift and I didn't have to tell anyone to do something.

    I was practically a hermit yesterday, just so I wouldn't fall for any pranks. My body decided to play one on me anyway. "Oh, you have things you want to do? Well, APRIL FOOL'S!" *charlie horse cramp in my leg* Still hurts today too. Worst. Joke. Ever.

    No, Code Lyoko isn't anime. Code Lyoko is actually French animation. After a while Toonami stopped running purely anime, Code Lyoko being one of the shows that came in that after period. But for that night they only played anime.

    Oh I know right, I don't know how people like him can exist in the 21st century? I have no problem with religion, but he takes it to a whole other level. He's like a Christian version of Obama, there's no real difference between the two (or Romney/Gingrich for that matter). Every major candidate from both parties is a big government socialist like Obama, with the exception of Ron Paul.

    Re: April Fools Day 2012

    My Mom, who is usually a very serious person, casually asked my three brothers why there was a brand new car with Costco price tags on it in our drive-way. The three leaped up, dashed from the house, anticipation written all over their faces. When they reached the empty parking lot, she shouted deafeningly "-April Fools!" (probably scared the neighbors that time).
