What is the worst April Fool prank you have ever done and have been done to you?

I'll start with mine:
The worst April Fool I have ever had was last year, made by my former best friend Brian ;)
I was visiting my parent’s house when Brian called me and told me he accidentally dropped a cigarette in my bed, in my room and had caught fire in the whole apartment. He told me most of my drawings and stuff in general was burned down but he managed to safe only a few of them. I was really devastated and bursted to tears.
I rarely remember April Fool’s Day neither did I that day but after that episode I am pretty sure I will always remember :)

I'm so sorry! :)

It sounded so fun in my head, however when you started to cry, the fun kind of went out of it :)

the worst one 2 be played on me was by my mum: (i had always always always wanted a kitten) she sat me down and said that her and my dad had been thinking and agreed i could have a kitten. For that split second before she yelled out: APRIL FOOL, DO U REALLY THINK WE'D GET U A KITTEN?? i was over the moon...then when she told me, i think i cryed. It wasnt funny at all, just mean :? i was only 11 at the time.

the worst one i ever played on someone else: i told my best friend i had 2 move away because my dad was being given new work, and she cryed for ages until i told her april fool, again, it wasnt funny and i felt really guilty.

:) i would cry too if someone told me my drawings were burned :)

The worst april fool happened two years ago, when I was running my first practical period in the hospital, in my studies to become a nurse. The head of the nurses wrote on a letter: Primiero Avrilo (that's Italian for April First). He said it was a former patient of us and I had to ask the patient's medical records, down the hall at the doktors office. Now that doctor was a brain surgeon, and I was a bit afraid of him. Never the less, still not getting the joke, I went downstairs, to the doctor's office and asked for the medical records of mister Primiero Avrilo. Even the doctor didn't get it! He kept searching for the medical records and he couldn't find it. Until his secretary got the joke and told us. i felt so humiliated when I returned the care unit :oops: :lol:

Wow, that's kind of horrible Brian! :lol:

I have never done anything like the ones mentioned. The only thing I have ever done to someone was my mother. One year when we were both getting ready to leave the house I put a rubberband on the sprayer on the kitchen sink. I put it so that it pressed the button down. When my mother turned on the faucet, water started shooting out of the sprayer and my mother got drenched. She started crying though so it wasn't funny. Geeze, girls don't really get in the april fools spirit do they?

i love april fools, one day my little sister came to me when she was like 11 and was like I am pregnant, i was like "What the F---?!" and she was like "I am kidding APRIL FOOLS!" I had no choice but to laugh. Now that I think about it It is hlarious... she always tells me, "You should have seen you face!''

One A.F.D my dad played the bucket over the door trick, and it hit me in the fore head and let a bruise, I cracked up! ha ha ha ha ha.

>I was really devastated and bursted to tears.

You heard this English expression incorrectly. It's "burst into tears". :wink:




The worst April Fool's joke I did was this: In Canada, we have dollar-coins and they are gold-colored (but this was before the introduction of the two-dollar coin). I took one and glued it to the sidewalk with "super glue" (cyanoacrilate). A dollar is a dollar, so people who find a dollar coin try to pick it up, and they can't...they strain, chip their fingernails trying to PICK UP THE DOLLAH! And we were in bushes and we took some pictures, hahahahaha ho what fun!

Then it was April 2nd, the joke was over, and we reached down to pick up our dollar and...we couldn't either. :cry:

There's also the prank of short-sheeting. This is where you take a flat bedsheet. You fold it in such a way that you tuck in one side at the head of the bed, as if it's the mattress sheet, and then fold the sheet over itself, placing the other corners as if they are the end of a top sheet.

When a person gets into bed, what do they do? They throw up the top sheet and stick their leg in-between the sheets to get down to the foot of the bed. But with a "short sheet" trick there IS no in-between and they hit the middle of the one and only sheet with their foot. Hahaha what fun!

Now you have to wait 364 days to try it out.

i know april fools has gone now...but heres my worst:

the worst april fool ever played on me was when i was sleeping at a friends home, mum rang up and said our house had been broken into and they had stolen loads of my stuff, i was upset i wouldnt stop crying...but i did laugh afterwards. This was when i was 12 though, a few months before my parents were killed.

I dont think i have ever played a mean april fool on anyone before, i never know which day it is anyway...im always packing my school bag for the wrong day :oops:

I had to read it a few times before I got it: I'll explain in Dutch ;) :

Wel, je neemt dus een laken (waar je normaal onder slaapt) en trekt dat tot boven aan je matras toe en steekt het vast, zo lijkt het alsof het de matrasovertrek is, dus waar je normaal op slaapt.
De onderkant van het laken vouw je dan naar boven toe, zodat het lijkt op een gewoon laken. Maar dat is het natuurlijk niet.
Als iemand dan gaat slapen, neemt hij zijn 'laken' en trekt hij het naar beneden (en dus is het weer plat, want hij heeft het weer opengevouwd en kan hij niet onder het laken gaan liggen)

hier een schets:

lol :D

neem een laken, steek het vanboven aan je matras vast
neem de onderkant van het laken, vouw het naar boven toe (dus liget het dubbel
sla dan een stukje terug (dan lijkt het toch op de boord van een laken dat is omgeslagen?)

als iemand dan da laken terugslaat, slaat hij het toch weer open? want de bovenkant van het laken steekt vast en hij gaat er gewoon op liggen en het laken is dus te kort

deed jij geen wetenschappen-wiskunde ;) :D

Hahahaha! I don't read Dutch but you drew a diagram to show that you got the idea.

Be careful! The governments might think you are making the diagrams for a professional terrorist manual and arrest you, hahahahah!

I love that horrible jokes and pranks can be passed on for the enjoyment of the next generation. Now, have any of you young people heard about the "flaming paper bag of dog poo" prank? I'm sure you have.

But probably we are getting into the realm of very dangerous and not very nice April Fool's jokes so I will never, ever, ever explain that one....oh, all right, you have "twisted my arm" and convinced me! What you do is take a SMALL paper bag, fill the bottom with some poo from off a local dog. Then you put it on the front porch of someone's house, light the TOP of the bag on fire, ring the doorbell and run away. The man sees something small on fire, so he's naturally going to stamp it out with his shoe and...and...hahahahah, get it? Ho what fun, as long as the porch is not made of wood and does not catch fire too!


North Americans have a lot of wide open spaces and they feel more "free" to pull crazy stunts like that.
