The only person laughing is usually the person who made the joke and it’s generally just irritating to everyone else who just wants to get on with their day. I might feel differently if we like, got the day off work for April Fools Day I guess

    You know the wrong people. Most i get are clever and planned. Or they don’t do it at all. My wife’s selling hand dyedB yarn & this April’s new quality was “Silky Mint” - and guess what: people bought it. 500m floss to knit what? A dentists coat???

      When my daughter was about 5 years old, we made an entire dessert dinner for April fools. We made mashed potatoes and scooped them onto the plate like ice cream, and a gravy that looked like chocolate syrup. We made meatloaf in the shape of candy bars, and there was some kind of vegetable thing to but I forget what it was.

      It was awesome. When her mom feigned surprise, she let out those deep belly laughs that little kids do.

      I’m sure some of you toxic, horrible people don’t have fun on April fools, but the rest of us are crushing it.
