April Fools' Pranks and Jokes

[MrsHerbie53]

Tell us about the pranks and jokes you pulled today OR that were pulled on you!
I'll start:

DS is has the day off of school today and I'm off too, so I thought I'd get him.

He has been bugging for the just released Tangled DVD. I wouldn't even stop at WalMart yesterday for him to buy it with his own money. (Because I already had it) So I took the new disc out of its case and put a different DVD in the new case. Then I switched about 10 of them this way, but they all point to the next one. When he says he's bored today, I will hand him the new movie case that only has the April Fools' Day note inside!!!!

He's finally out of bed and I can hardly wait...

HILARIOUS!!! I cant wait to hear what he thought of it!!!

Wow, thats a hilarious prank! Can't wait to hear how it goes!!!
I called my parents today (who live in our city) and told them my DH has accepted a job on the other side of the Country and we'll be moving there as soon as possible. My dad sounded on the verge of tears, and my mom was actually sobbing through the phone. I couldn't take it any longer, so I told them right away. Good thing they have a great sense of humour - they thought it was hilarious!!!!!

I pulled this one on my DS13. He got in trouble last night before bed so I knew it was a perfect time to get him.

Me: "Isaiah we are sending you to reform school. I don't know what more I can do, a man is coming tomorrow morning to sign you up."

Isaiah: "Mama, I'm sorry, I don't know what I did exactly, but I'm sorry, I don't want to leave ya'll"

Me: "Son, (holding back the tears) I just don't know anymore, the only thing I have to say is APRIL FOOLS!!!!!"

It was classic! Even though he knew it was a joke, I still caught him washing the dishes before he left for school this morning. He did this without being told, hilarious!

The weatherman pulled one on me, said we were getting up to 8 inches of snow. Turns out we're just getting rain. Of course he wasn't trying to trick us all

The stupid weatherman did the opposite to me! Said we were getting rain and I woke up to three inches of snow.

I texted both of my parents today and said we'd have to cancel my wedding because I'm pregnant. My mother called me laughing. My dad hasn't responded. I hope I didn't kill him.

We are going to send an email out today instructing everyone to place their phone headset into the trash can when they are leaving for the day so that we can blow out the phone lines this weekend...

That was the prank I got too except it really is snowing

Hang on kiddies!

Wrapped a co-workers desk in aluminum foil. This includes individually wrapping invoices and drawing what they were on them, wrapping his chair, books, pens, calculator, etc. Everything was neatly labeled though.

Set another co-worker's glasses in a jello mold. (Tough. This sucker started melting immediately. I'll have to work on it.)

24 styrofoam cups stapled together and filled 2/3rd with water with the words "April Fools" written on the front.

There was apparently a teddy bear massacre in the office manager's office. There is crime scene tape at the door, chalk outlines of teddy bear parts (not all are necessarily connected to the body), chalk outline of a butcher knife, and stuffing. Is. Everywhere.

I taped a "Free Hugs" sign to my 6 year old daughter's back before sending her into her classroom.

I also plan on TPing her room before she gets home.

I love April Fool's Day!

Well, DH and I thought this one would be PERFECT for DD.

This morning she asked me to hand her a pair of shoes, they are the skate boarding shoes (I can't remember the brand) with the fat tongue. She was complaining that they come off in PE, so I told her to tighten the laces some and they wouldn't fall off. She said "mom, you can't tighten the laces on these shoes, it looks dorky." So I said, well, I have no idea about fancy shoes, I had Kmart shoes when I was growing up. She said "you know mom, I don't HAVE to wear Abercrombie, Hollister, AE and Aero, you could buy my clothes at Kmart and WalMart and I would be fine with that."

So, today at lunch, I went and bought a new summer outfit that she has been dying for from Hollister. I kept the bag, but removed the Hollister clothes (hid them) and put a brand spanking new Kmart outfit in the bag!

We CANNOT wait until we hand her that bag and she opens it!! PRICELESS!

These are quite good!!!!

My son laughed and at the 4th "misplaced" DVD he said, "When does it end?!"

Next year here is how he wants to get his dad. Our bedroom is above the living room and the surround sound speakers. At 5:30am he wants to turn on Pearl Harbor and crank the sound so it sounds like the planes, guns, and torpedos are in our room! The hardest part will be him getting out of bed to do it!

Just saw on Disney Channel that they are running shorts with April Fools Pracnk suggestions (like switching the bags in cereal boxes).

JSKoehler, did you mean THIS thread? That's the second April Fool's trick you've pulled on us today.

I called my boss and told her that the new person had quit because our other co-worker was really nasty to her, and she couldn't take it anymore. She bought it hook line and sinker! She was about to get off the phone with me and call the co-worker when I said to her "ooh, and another thing, you know today is April Fools Day....?" It took like about 10 seconds to realize that it was all a joke!


ETA - When I was younger I used to put clear seran wrap on the toilet seat and wait for my mom to go to the bathroom. She fell for it every single year and always screamed bloody murder at me for doing it. I would be on the floor rolling with laughter!!
