It's funny...

We tell our children not to take candy from strangers...

but a plate of cupcakes appears in the break-room on April Fool's day and no one seems to care how they got there.


I think they're legit though, since there's a security camera in there that any would be prankster may or may not have noticed.

I started to have heart palpitations because it was accurate.

You're off the Christmas card list that you weren't on.

So he won't be pissed if she gets a little on the side? Wonder if that's his passive aggressive way of telling her to get lost?

He thinks she will flip out and think one of her friends did it and it will drive her crazy. He said she would never think it was him.


I told him to call a lawyer bro 🙂

I thought you were Muslim! That wasn't you flashing me boldly bare ankle in that bonkers burlap burka?

So disappointed. 🙁
 
Was bored but not feeling too creative, took my roomies music collection that's on a USB flash drive hooked to his car stereo and re-encoded all the songs reversed. He'll be going to work soon and will undoubtedly be pissed.
 
I'm the one that got pranked at work today.

(I work at Portland State University's mail room.)

Some joker thought it would be funny to reverse the left and right mouse buttons in Windows 7's mouse settings.


Really confused me at first.


Also,someone else decided to tape the tubs that we use to sort mail into different areas to the table.Total douchebag.

Damn it,I hate April Fool's Day.

Hit F11.

I was going to suggest using "corglitch" after that, but they seem to have their own April Fools thing with a music video going. :\

If only I had seen this earlier in the day. I'd have been in all of the offices in the tech department - no one logs out when they walk away from their computers.

LOL that's funny. The songs will play in reverse? Like our parents used to make us do with our AC/DC albums to hear the Satan worship?
 
My niece, mother of two and schooling to become a nurse, which we are all very proud of her for, posted a photo of a terrible car wreck on her FB page and said she had an accident, was in the hospital.

That went on all day with friends and family shocked and worried.

Then she admitted, haha lol, it was all a fools joke.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
 
Simple, switch all coffee in the office to decaf. You'd find out pretty quick who really needs it and who falls for the placebo effect.

Ideas?

In Poland we have this tradition called Śmigus Dyngus. Basically you spray whoever you see on the street with water......or pour bucket over their head.

Better yet, look up some you tube videos.

Ohh the memories of old lady walking peacefully down the street and 5-10 guys running up to her with buckets of water......

Is that acceptable now that everyone carries a smartphone? Most smartphones are worth a few hundred dollars and don't get along very well with water.

When I was little, my mom would make me leave flowers and cards for the neighbors and then ring the doorbell and run away. Other then that, I've never celebrated this holiday.

Pretty sure that is May Day, not April 1st. 🙂
