Did you play any April Fools Jokes on anyone this year? Did anyone play any on you or did you hear about a good one?

 

Tell us.

 

Seems that the common one I keep hearing about is girls telling their boyfriends that they're pregnant.

boo. No replies. I don't play good pranks because I have bad timing and horrible at telling lies. :blush:

while i was sleeping my brother drew a mustache on me with permanent marker

what a sucker :tongue:

I tried to play one on people on here.

 

Noone pulled any on me this year though...that I know of...

 

I like the NME article Ian posted about keith Richards snorting his Father's ashes. I think that may have been an April Fool's prank.

no i heard it on a talk show today, he did say that. but he could be joking

David S. said that the article came out in Sunday's NME, and they're up for a good prank as much as anyone,lol. But maybe it it true. I hoped it was a joke, because it's just too gross to be true.

NME had something on their website about Muse booking a flight into orbit.

 

Kind of got overshadowed by the whole message board scheme though. That was the best/worst kind of prank, because everyone's first reaction was April fools, but wait a minute, what if it was just really bad timing and it is real.

 

I tried to take a wait and see approach... but ended up staying up way late saving stuff and when I did go to bed I was so worried (what sort of a precedent would this set? Sure they don't have a legal leg to stand on, but who can really fight them on it? What if EMI pulled the same deal with Coldplaying????) that I spent most of the night trying to stop worrying and fall asleep. Everyone wondered what had happened to me the next morning.

 

:laugh3: So yeah, they got me good.

 

But my Grandmother died on April 1st which led to some awkward situations, so I'm extremely gullible to the no, this is for real, honest line when something is especially nasty.

Sorry to sound like a noob, but what messageboard thing is that?

Here's where I first heard about it- on here: http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=38713

 

The official Muse messageboard came up with a little summary of all the threads here: http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?t=42189 Very funny reading. ALL of the Muse messageboards were in on it, but it started at muse.mu apparently.

richards is now claiming it was said in jest

Well then, Muse and Keith are tied for top this year, IMO.

 

If something like that happened with coldplaying, I'd lose alot of sleep too,lol. Too scary.:laugh3:

SYPHLIS!

I think the best one I ever played was telling one of my best friends I was moving to America. I got all of our other friends in on it and even had everyone around one night to celebrate my time here.

 

I know that April Fools is only supposed to be that morning but we carried this one on for like, the entirety of April.

 

I'd been a close friend to him for a good few years and was really annoyed when we told him. Of course, we told him by having it written on the cake at my party for leaving Newcastle.

 

Fun time. His parents said he'd been really upset, so I felt a bit guilty afterwards. I was 13 though. I've done nothing for April Fools recently.
