In the spirit of the day, does anyone have any funny stories about classic gags that you've pulled or had pulled on you on April 1st?

Here's mine.....my high school used to have this computer dating service-type thing that came in once a year and people filled it out for fun. In my senior year, I was one of the student liaisons in charge of inputing the data, which gave me an evil idea. I got everything done a few days early so the results were released back to the students directly on April 1st, and my pal Mike got a very interesting list for his "top five best matches"

* His sister
* His ex-girlfriend
* His other ex-girlfriend
* An open lesbian
* An open gay guy

Needless to say, it got a pretty funny reaction out of Mike.

I think the best April Fool's Day pranks so far have been the two done to us today in Philly. The station with Stern has him off the air because of "decency" issues and is currently replaced with a top 40 duo playing songs that don't belong on Hard Rock WYSP. The second is that the other Hard Rock station, WMMR, is right now playing country music.

I pray to God that these are just pranks anyways.

Edited to say that yes, they were both AF jokes. Stern's joke was particularly funny, with "Cross and Lopez" playing mostly bad music followed by even worse "banter" betweeen the hosts. Good stuff.

And, YSP (Stern is still on YSP correct?) Playing Top 40! The station that invented THE METAL SHOP back in 82 or 83! LOL!

Here are some ideas if you get in early enough to the office (stolen from ebaumsworld.com)

1) Switch the "M" and "N" keys on keyboards. They pop off easily, and hilarity will ensue

2) Tape down the mouse tracker ball with a piece of tape, therefore it cant move, and watch as your coworker tries to figure out what's wrong with their comp.

3) Take a picture of their desktop using the print screen feature. Then take all their desktop icons and put them in a folder and drag them off screen. Also shrink down their tool bar so it isnt visible. Then set the picture of the desktop you took earlier as their wallpaper. Laugh at them as they try and click on things and nothing happens.

other pranks I have heard of
-buy a pair of tighty whities and take some barbecue sauce and smear it in the underpants so it looks like someone had an accident, then leave the underwear on someones doorstep.

-my favorite prank I have ever done was my roommate in college had about 200 different movies. So me and our other roommate proceeded to switch every tapes box so that every tape was in the wrong box. Then we laughed our ass off when he discovered what we did.



Wiggum: There's more bootleg tapes in here then..uh..Lou?
Lou: A Chinese Wal-Mart?
Wiggum: I guess that'll have to do. But whoever owns these tapes is in more hot water than..
Lou: A Japanese tea bag?
Wiggum: Why don't you lay off the Asians Lou

Thank GOD it's a joke. In Seattle the top 40 pop station is KISS 106.1, and they canned their morning show (supposedly, but the old hosts website has a "good-bye" message and the station's website has the new show up) AND Howard Stern is off the air on KISW, replaced with the same Cross and Lopez. It was like I woke up in another radio city.

The Kevin and Bean Show on KROQ here in L.A. is off the air this morning. The night guy Stryker is on in their place. Their page has been removed from KROQ.com as well. I knew it was a prank when I heard it, since they're pretty infamous for their April Fools stunts. (2 years ago they lured folks out to the desert with a fake Blink 182 concert.) But this year they set up the joke early. Two days ago they said that Bean had gotten a letter from the NAACP about his ownership of the domain name "niggaplease.com". Then yesterday they said they were scheduled for a meeting with management beacause they were making light of a racist situation. And today they're "fired".

Stryker has also mentioned Ashton Kutcher several times this morning and interviewed Shannon Doherty about her prank show Scare Tactics. Just a semi-sly way of letting everyone know they're being fooled.

Well out here the radio stations are too small too really accomplish those kinds of pranks.

Now it all depends on what you're trying to accomplish with you prank. Admittedly not all of the ones I know are completely original, but I like them all.

*Valerian Root, it's a herbal supplement to help make you sleep. Now if it is powdered, simply open up the capsule and pour the contents into the receiver of a phone. Why? It has a stench of biblical proportions, and when the victim lifts the phone... well people with weak stomachs may not be able to last.

*This one works well in the workplace, pour a few drops into the upholstered seat. Then when the person sits down the tobasco will seep up through the person's clothes to their tender bits... and well there will be a burning ring of fire.

*This is one I did, admitted it cost me a bit of money, and was a bit of a setup, but it was a great birthday present for the guy, sorta. Basically you get a willing girlfriend in on this, and have certain hints drop intimating that the girlfriend has an interest in women. Let this go on for a few weeks, then set it up with the girlfriend wanting to go to a motel, and make a video with a girl she took out an ad for. Now the best ending, how we had it at least, was the target ends up at hte motel handcuffed to the bed, and the girl turns out to be an obvious drag queen, talking about breaking him. Now this kind of prank is dicey, and you have to know the people well. But his reaction is documents on video, and is watched by us for a good laugh. He had a good sense of humor about it too, and chuckles, even if it embarrasses the hell out him.

Ahhhhh. Is there anything better, really, than good old fashioned radio station humour. "And we're BACK!"

I have a friend who has his birthday today. Last year he turned 25, so to celebrate the quarter century mark I organized a surprise party. We had him believe that I was in a really bad car accident. When he came down to the ER, someone was there (someone he'd never met before) to tell him that the ER was full and I was being treated for my injuries "temporarily" in the restaurant around the corner. That's where the party was.



So sayeth Randy Stilton, the real Stinky Cheese Man!

I think April Fools Day jokes are mean and nasty and should be abolished.

I think the best April Fool's Day joke I know of happened about 10 years ago on 101 KGB-FM here in San Diego. Dave, Shelly and Chainsaw, then known as the Dawn Patrol, said that the space shuttle was landing at Montgomery Field, a small airport a few miles south of the Miramar Naval Air Station. They faked the mission control/shuttle conversations, and a butt load of people fell for it. It was covered on CNN, and the SDPD was not amused. It was one of the funniest things I had ever heard, and I haven't seen or heard anything close to that since then.

In Virginia Beach, there is a city park called Mt Trashmore. It was once a landfill, but they built over it with a HUGE mound of dirt, and made a pretty nice park. Well, one April Fools day, Tommy and the Bull (RIP Henry) of FM99 WNOR came on and said that they immediate area around the park had to be evacuated, because after all this time, all the trash decomposing underneath the hill, was causing methane to build up, and the city had determined that a huge explosion was imminent. The town panicked, and when it was revealed to be a hoax, both DJs were suspended for like two weeks.

This has gotten frustrating. I can't seem to find a good website that rates beds and whatnot, seeing as I'm looking for a new one. My boxspring shit is all kinds of old and worn down, and I most definitely need a new one.
