Gotcha! It’s April Fool!

Today is 1st April – The World Official April Fool’s Day.

It’s the one day of the year when you can play a prank and (possibly) get away with it!

Here are few suggestions on pranks you could pull and those you should stay clear from.

THESE ARE FUN… TRY IT!

• Go around your college and tell random people that a particular person (let’s make it your mortal enemy) wants to see them A.S.A.P. Your enemy would definitely freak out to see a horde of people after him/her.
  
• Some may think it’s a lame joke but drawing on the face of someone who is fast asleep is a classic trick that never fails to bring laughter. Just make sure the ink’s not permanent.
  
• Here’s another trick to play when a “victim” is asleep: Put some ketchup on their palms and tickle their nose/ear with a feather. It’s nice to see them dirty their face with their own hands. Avoid chilli sauce, it might sting the eye.
  
• Spice things up in your computer lab by sticking small Post-It notes underneath the computer mouses (make sure it covers the ball or the optical sensor). Watch as your classmates (and lecturer) scratch their heads as to why the mouse won’t work, only to turn it over and read the “April Fool!” message on the note.
  
• Change the brightness/contrast of your friend’s computer screen so that the monitor looks “dark”. Try not to laugh when they keep switching everything on and off over and over again trying to get the screen to work.
  
• Hate your sister for taking too much time in front of the mirror? Pour some talcum powder into the hairdryer and wait for the “explosion”. It’s worth the screams you’ll hear later. Just make sure she’s not getting ready for a big date because her revenge could be very bitter for you.

MAY PROCEED… BUT WITH UTMOST CAUTION!

• Call your friend before work and tell them “Dude, I’m sorry, but you got fired,” and act surprised that they haven’t heard it themselves. Unfortunately, you can’t predict what your friend would do and that could really get him/her fired – like going berserk on his/her boss.
• Tell your friend, “I’m glad you finally found out that your girl/boyfriend has been cheating on you. Everyone in college knew it ages ago.” Problem is that you may be on the other end of the punch!
• Cover the toilet seat bowl with a transparent plastic wrap and wait for it to claim its “victims”. It gets messy and you may end up having to clean up the mess!
• Switch the signs to the male and female toilets. Someone may cry pervert and the innocent victim might be scarred for life.

DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT TRYING THESE…

• Tying shoelaces together. It’s so primary school and if someone really falls over, the person might hit his/her head on the ground!
• Stick a “Kick Me” sign on someone’s back. Come on, how old are you? Five?
• Spit into your friends drink and serve them with a big smile on your face. Eww!
