You say "Nothing sweetie, calm down, I am just strafing. PEW PEW PEW PEW!!"

Ahahaha that was awesome, you need to do that and let us know how it goes.

Am I the only one who hates this stupid day?

It's not funny, i mean small personal pranks are okay i guess, but like big elaborate jokes from credible news sources are ######ed.

We're having an elevator built at my workplace. The construction guys were in early this morning tearing out the tiles, and now it's a big pile of dirt. I started telling people they dug into an ancient burial ground of some sort.

I think I got a couple people.

I just sent my boss an urgent email describing an elaborate screw-up on my part, and how hundreds of files worth of critical information are now lost, and may never be retrieved, thanks to my balls-up. I'm responsible for the protection and management of this info.

I 've gone on and on about how serious it is, and how I don't want this to cost me my job.

Awaiting reply.

Breakfast Television did a lame one this morning saying that the Flames were re-naming themselves the Calgary Cowboys.

If you want a good laugh, look in the current edition of FFWD for the Lululemon ad. It's a guy in this awful leotard outfit called the "Mansy", and the ad says it's available in limited quantities on April 1.

No, I'm with you.

I hate not being able to trust anything from "legitimate" news sources.

I've come to work with a small nuclear device today, I'm just looking for a place to hide it.

Just imagine the looks on their faces for the .00001 millisecond before their reduced to sub atomic particles.

April fools.

Google is at it again:

Virgle

A little more obvious than last year's, but still pretty well thought out and executed. Wonder how many people will fall for this. The "application" questionnaire is pretty funny as well.

I just got my girlfriend pretty good.

We go to different schools and I told her my program got cut due to spending cutbacks next year, but the school is offering the program during the summer so everyone can get their degree...Meaning I wouldn't be back in Calgary to spend time with her during the summer. I had her at the point of tears! April fools! Muahaha.

I did a couple of small pranks today. Change people's login sounds and such (I'm the admin, I have rights to all the hard drive) and crank their speakers. This one guy is going to get an email and 5 Little Ducks by The Wiggles will play... its a loooong song for email notification.

Another one I did was zip tie the handle on people's chairs so that it goes all the way up. Then they sit down and the chair goes all the way down. Then the chair goes back up when they stand up.

I just refuse to believe anything I am told today. When ever someone tells me something, I reply with "I'm not going to fall for that, it's April Fools"
