Life is good, and I AM A COMPLETE BASTARD.
I also got a few friends with a story about Gerard Butler shooting a movie in downtown Roanoke. (Though plenty of people clued to the gag pretty quickly too.)
Tag Archives: April Fool’s Day
(I heard “Joker” was already taken.)
I told my best friend yesterday that there was a boa constrictor loose in my house and she TOTALLY BOUGHT IT. So did her kids.
And last year I had her convinced that a family of raccoons had moved into my closet.
I am the April Fool’s joke MASTER; I should be a supervillain named “April Fool.”
Her, after the reveal: “At this point, I hope you get eaten.”
It’s a 2018 two-fer!
So this year Easter and April Fool’s Day fall on the same date.
Of course that means you should neglect to hide eggs, but tell all the kids to go look anyway.
Norman Rockwell’s “April Fool, 1948”
One of his annual humorous covers for “The Saturday Evening Post.”
How many “foolish” things are depicted here?
An annual April 2nd disclaimer
No, guys, I have not been hired by any United States Antarctic Research Program to assist John Blair and his fellow scientists at Outpost 31. Neither will I be relocating to any research base in Antarctica. Nor do I have a college alumnus named R.J. MacReady.
Those were lies. My post yesterday was an April Fool’s Day prank. The setting and people I described yesterday are derived from the classic 1982 sci-fi/horror film, John Carpenter’s “The Thing.”
