April Fools
I though it would be a good idea to post all the hiliarious April Fools Day pranks we see around the Internet and real life.
I'll start.
First one if from Google - I thought it was great


The second one I found comes from a website called IGN. It will may look like the video is stuck at one point during it, I don't know if it was my crappy computer though.


Honestly, I think this could actually make a pretty good television show XD

Feel free to post your own findings

Branson buys Pluto, reinstates as planet.



Personally, I hope he succeeds. Don't we all miss Pluto?

One year ago, Mr Hatala told our chem class (very convincingly... he prepared a power point slide and everything) that the registrar had to move our final exam from the end of April to the beginning of the exam period.. like one week away.

Everyone fell for it, no one was prepared, chaos ensued... it was amazing and cruel.

The final slide on his powerpoint was something like, "If you have any concerns, please contact [email protected] ca"

Didn't get pranked this year though! :(

I remember being really upset when I found out it was a joke because the chem exam was right next to two of my other exams, so it being sooner had actually, for a brief few moments, relived my stress immensely. The crushing disappointment was horrible :(

Haha I remember this! Probably the most cruel April Fool's prank yet, but hilarious nonetheless! I wonder if Dr. Zhorov will pull some tiger-related prank on us ...
Far-ID, you're having way too much fun with April Fool's
As much as I like April fool's as much as I wish it didn't exist. One of my friends put up a picture with her bf and a ring saying she's engaged. It makes sense since they've been together forever, but .. congratulate her or is it a joke..

Sorry to disappoint Sara, I guess this is Farid's April Fools. He's only into Asians. :(
