My thoughts on April Fools may be colored by the fact that by two best friends in High School played a month long practical joke on me-- One of them was a boy I liked and the joke they played was that the two of them were secretly sleeping together, and I needed to keep their secret, and the boy told me all about it in great detail on the phone every night, because he just needed someone to talk to. And then he called me on April Fools Day, said "April Fools" and hung up. I actually think now, knowing what I do, that it actually wasn't a joke, and he used April Fools to get out of it, but at the time, I was absolutely devasted, because I felt like our whole friendship was a lie.
I believe that's my hey. Hey!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is funny (I'm assuming it's an April Fools Day joke) Tell Me Your Secrets Bear
It would be highly disturbing if real....

ThinkGeek always has cute stuff on Internet Jackass Day. I like the Black Monolith Action Figure.

But does it roll down stairs, alone or in pairs? No!

I saw this at Daily Kos:
Karl Rove has ... and believe me, these are words I never thought I'd type ... a well thought out column acknowledging the many strategic errors made by the Republican party during the health care reform debate.
But the link reveals it's an April Fools joke. Fuckers!

ION, I am listening to Ethiopian Reggae piano music that my cat downloaded for me. It's OK.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sophia, that's highly upsetting.
I'm not a fan of April Fool's either. I'm humourless in that regard.

Because books.
Apri Fool's is only cute when it's little kids. Like Sara designing this "elaborate" prank where she was going to tell Ben she was bringing him a banana and bring him an apple instead. ::nods::

Some are mean. Like the thing you plug someone's keyboard into that occasionally inserts random characters into what they're typing.
