I remember my mother playing April Fool's jokes on me. When I was thirteen, she told me that I was getting a new baby brother or sister. It was something I was really excited for being an only child. I spent the next several months giving her suggestions for names, never asking who the father was for that didn't matter to me, and planning all the things I was going to teach my new little sister or brother.

I was really disappointed when she told me, three months later, that it was all an April Fool's joke that she couldn't bear to break to me earlier because I was so excited.

Honestly. I still get a little mad at her about it even now.

So no jokes from me. I think this place has quite enough without playing pranks.

That's a pretty damn cruel joke for April Fool's. Usually people stick to the usual shaving cream in the locker.

I think she thought it would be funny, and it might have been, had she let me know the day of.

No, that ain't funny regardless.

So we both realised when I spent a week refusing to speak to her.

I'm guessing it was around April first.

You guessed correctly. Needless to say, it's spoiled any inclination I have to play pranks on people.

That's because you never had anyone do the simpler ones on you. I think my personal favorite was the one where I couldn't get into my car because it was saran wrapped.

That's a good one. I would have laughed at that one, I think.

Oh I did. And then I covered their lockers in marshmallow peeps.

So you gave them treats as revenge?

I glued treats to all door handles and their clothes as revenge. I'm not that nice.

That's one sticky, sticky mess.

I approve.

They didn't, but I didn't care enough to feel bad about it. No one wraps up my baby in plastic and gets away with it.

A man of personal effects who doesn't like his stuff touched, actually. April Fool's is my personal nightmare.

You certainly don't have to worry about being a victim of anything like that with me.

One good whisk would give you style. Maybe a grater.

If you were here, I would likely punch you for that one.

Well you'd try but I wouldn't let you. I'm too saucy for that.

That's terrible. The closest thing I have to that is a trailer par landlord that once told my ma he'd be forgiving rent for the month.

That's a horrible joke to play on someone. Money isn't something you joke about.

I wanted to introduce my face to his fist for that one, but figured that would lead to us getting evicted faster.

Most likely. Did you at least give him what he deserved when you moved? Assuming you moved, eventually.

So the end justified the means. I suppose I can accept that.

I am joking, I hope you realise.
