It’s April Fool’s Day!

It’s April Fool’s Day!

Have you been pranked yet?

About 64% of us will engage in some sort of chicanery today, according to National Today.

Who should you watch out for?

Your significant other, for starters, followed by friends, your kids and co-workers.

YouGov found that almost half of us think April Fool’s pranks are annoying,..in fact Microsoft banned them at their company this year.

Here’s what to look out for:

  • Mind game pranks, like rearranging someone’s furniture and pretending nothing looks out of the ordinary
  • Scare tactics, like putting a fake spider on a person’s chair
  • Lying pranks, like telling your significant other you’re pregnant (Funny! NOT!)
  • A prank phone call
  • A food-related prank, like toothpaste in an Oreo
  • A “make things inaccessible” prank, like putting a stapler in Jell-O
  • An elaborate prank that you film for YouTube
  • A “toilet humor” prank, like cellophane on a toilet seat

You can’t say we didn’t warn you! 😁
