s/o: Best April Fool's joke you've pulled

I once told my mom that I had accepted a nanny job for a family in Alaska.  I told her the dad was in the Navy and that I would have one 2 wk vacation each summer and that I had signed a year contract.

I let her believe it for a few hours...until I got a call from my brother telling me that my mom was crying and calling my aunts to tell them I was moving.

    My bro used to LOVE scratch tix.  One year I found the joke ones that say you won something like $10K.  I mailed them to him.  According to my SIL, he scratched them, went nuts thinking he won.  She took the tix and realized what it was/told him.  He didn't speak to me for a week. :-)

    I got some fake/gag gift doggy poo from a friend and set it on the carpet in our living room. (This was when I was in high school) My mom saw it and flipped out about the dog pooping on the carpet and asked me to pick it up.  So I did....with bare hands and she about died! lol!  The look on her face was PRICELESS...a min. or two later I showed her that it was fake.

    when my bro was like 19 and a pot head, i called him at 2am on april fools and said that my mom had called in the middle of the night and said she knew he smoked pot and that i should just fess up to knowing. i told him i got nervous and spilled everything and that he should just call my mom bc she knew the truth. knowing he had prob been partying that night and he would never remember it was april fools, he freaked the out and we laughed so hard afterwards :)

     

    i also told my mom 1 year that i pierced my tongue and already had cracked a tooth (her fear for tongue piercings). she wasn't happy about that either.

    I told my students last year that I was having twins. HAHA - jokes on me.

    I copied a test backwards and told them they had to complete it that way. Those who did, I gave 10 bonus points.Those who whined like little biatches, I gave a corrected test.

    I swapped the salt and the sugar in their respective containers on my dad one year, who is deeply religious about his coffee.

    Oh man, was he pissed.

    My name is April and I was born on April Fools Day, so you can imagine that April's Fool's jokes are not my favorites.?

    This one we didn't pull on 4/1...we pulled in on Mother's Day.  But it is still a great one.

    My mom's computer was dying...it was old and needed to be replaced.  So she asked my dh to fix it.  Instead he built her a new one!  Complete with all the bells and whistles.  It was really nice.

    On the day we were supposed to rbing it over my brother said he'd carry it into the house.  Well..he pretended to trip and launch her old computer into the air.  It came down in a CRASH!  Computer parts everywhere.

    My mom almost started crying...until she saw me laughing and open the trunk of my car to show her the new one.

    I plastic wrapped my boss' cube at work. He left a cup of coffee on his desk, that was wrapped. I wrapped paper clips, pennies, everything - the trash can - everything.

    He got me back though, on my last day there, he and my co-workers, plastic wrapped and stuck Post-It Notes all over my car. It was hilarious, someone was tasked to keep me from that side of the floor so that I wouldn't notice them doing it. When I walked out for the day, they were all watching me from the windows!

    I wish I still had a picture of that, it was classic.

    I also put vaseline on the handsets of my co-workers. I guess this might be why they were so ecstatic for me to start working from home?

    I had my two sisters at my house for the weekend. At like 6 AM I ran into the room where they were sleeping and started screaming that the house was on fire. They both jumped up dazed and confused until I started laughing.

    I know this is borderline just plain mean but it was funny!

    Ouch!  My dh is also a 4/1 baby.

    And I used to know someone who was born in April and named April May.  Who does that?

    I've never really pulled a good one, but my DH proposed to me all day on April Fool's.  He even woke me up at 2 in the morning to propose and then say April Fool's.  I was about ready to kill him.  He proposed for real 3 days later.

    My dad plays the CA lotto every.single.week and has for as long as I can remember.  He and my mom went out to run an errand when the numbers were called, so he asked me to write them down for him.  Well, he left his lottery ticket on top of the TV, so I took it and wrote down those numbers (out of order of course!).  When he got home and checked his ticket, he thought he had won millions.  My mom took one look at me and realized that he hadn't.  She had to tell him to stop jumping around screaming and look at me.  I thought my dad was going to have a heart attack!  I think I was about 10 when this happened... and I don't think it was an April fool's prank.  LOL.  He still brings it up to this day.

    I had an appointment to have my tires rotated on april fool's day. Afterwards I called my DH hysterical and said that I left the dealer and was driving down the road and two of the tires fell off the car. I told him that one bounced down the street and hit another car and the other ended up on the sidewalk. Haha. He freaked out. He was so mad at Acura! He was on his way out to come get me when his coworker asked if it was a joke. Haha.

    Nobody believed me when I was in labor on April Fool's Day! I had to have the phone right next to the fetal monitor for my mom to stop saying, "really?! No your not.... this better not be a joke. Really!?"

    LMAO, I have a visual of a tire 'bouncing' down the street!

    How are you?
