Yes it was cruel, but at my school cruel=funny for some reason.

Majic 04-02-2004 04:40 PM

Like I said, similar to arrogant bastard 6th graders.

Sekto Springs 04-02-2004 04:40 PM

Yes, it's amazing how some people immature as they grow.

So when people say that drugs aren't bad (M,kay!), you'll get higher than my SS teacher?

Have you noticed that most Geography (or social studies--whatever) teachers always seem to be high, old, or total dicks?

I've noticed that they tend to wear tartan tweed jackets with leather elbow pads. :|

In school yesterday (April Fools day) I played the prank of the day; This kid named Walter (I total friggin' geekoid) was sitting minding his own business reading some Javascript manual and I turned around and said "Hey Walter, your hair is on backwards" and he actually checked his hair! Everyone who was watching laughed histerically, Walter was pissed and I kept telling different people what I said to him. By the end of the day; everyone and their grandma knew what I said to him and were recreating the moment. I don't think he'll ever live that down!

-input inputted :lol:

LOL i can't believe he fell for that !! :fuzgrin: :fuzgrin:

The best one I heard was on the radio.

A phone-in show had an engenier who worked on the Dublin Spire (a 150foot aluminium spike with lights at the top).
He said that because the foundation was so deep and damp, the spire was oxidising from the inside, and that this rust would shorten it's life from 200+ years to 5 years.

EVERYONE (including politicians) began to phone in with complains about how hundreds of millions had been wasted on this "rusty nail".
At the end of the show, the DJ said "You do know what day it is today, right(?)" *ta-da!*
(Of course, we all know that aluminium oxide is stronger than aluminium)

all of my geography teachers have been old AND dicks. I got jibbed that I never got a high one.

EDIT: now that I come to think of it there was the teacher who threatened to jump out the 3rd floor window if we didn't shut up. And he couldn't understand why that didn't work.

More classroom pranks (not limited to April 1st):

wink epilepsy: like wink murder but one person winks at the rest of the class and whoever (s)he winks at must imitate an epileptic fit without the teacher noticing what is going on.

Another one is to decide as a group before class three rarely used words (eg ingress, masticate, mammaries). The challenge is to use these words in as natural a manner as possible so that your teacher (and anyone not in the game) doesn't realise. Bonus points if you use all the words together in one sentence. Once someone uses a word it may not be reused. If all the words are used up early, feel free to pass notes around with more words.

I got one thats good...


Bring 2 boxes of alkaseltzers and use them both with authority...

Have a few freinds take 2 with them at an assembly and put them in your mouth, fall out of your seats and spasim, letting the foam flow. Its funny until they figure it out.

Codek 04-04-2004 07:36 PM

These sound more like crappy pranks rather than april fools jokes.

April fools jokes are meant to make people laugh, not to give people a heart attack or make them feel bad.

LOL!

Try this!

...I'm sitting... as I do... messing on t'internet and chatting on forums and getting paid to do so! When a big warning message from the CMIS (IT Geeks who run the college intranet thingy!) popped up

"WARNING: This is an illegal site please log out!"

I pooh my self, delete it but carry on... again!

"WARNING: Please desist this ofence has been recorded!"

This time I tell the rest of the peops in the office...

"Ooooh! Haven't seen that before!" - Wendy
"I'd do as it says Claire" - Lisa
"Yeah do some work just in case... they've isolated you you'll get into trouble" -Paul

So I logs out and starts to input some data and another message arrives...

"APRIL FOOL CLAIRE!"

Pauls an IT under-graduate and had hacked into the CMIS messaging system and it was him all along!

It doesn't seem funny but if you'd seen my face apparently Pauls effort was justly rewarded!

What a git! He's in for a beating so if anyone has any good ideas to get smarty pants Paul back i'm all ears!

The classic April Fools jokes are the fun ones switching the salt with the suger. Putting a sleeping person's hand in warm water so they piss themselves. Putting plastic wrap over the toilet bowl need I say more. And putting whip cream on the telephone.

If your as creative at creating illusions as I am you can really fool someone.
I am real creative when it comes to building scenes like sets and stuff that and art. But if your good at that you can really scare someone. I do it all the time at Holloween. I build a hunted House and I scare 18 year olds. It takes a lot of creativity in order to get a practical joke to work right on someone.

Its all harmless fun for me at least.

Paramiteabe... :fuzblink:

One time I was on a camp and some people dangled a plastic fork on a bit of clear fishing wire in front of me. It was dark so I couldn't see the wire and I jumped a mile, thinking the place was haunted (which is very out of character for me)

Yeah, now you tell me.

You've always got the risk of starting this prank too early (the night before), or too late (they piss after midnight).

It's only good if someone happens to take a nap halfway through the day, otherwise it's another cruel/imature prank!

Fez 04-14-2004 11:48 AM

We did that at a sleep over party once. Oh, how we laughed.
