April Fool's day pranks - what have you done?
Seeing that April 1 is just around the corner, let's share some pranks you pulled on unsuspecting victims - who knows, maybe someone will be able to use your idea successfully...
My all-time highlight:
My girl and I decide to pull an April fool's day early, so, the victims won't suspect they're being played. It's 2am April 1st.
We call and wake up our unsuspecting (soon to be severely pissed off) friend and his new girlfriend and tell them that we're stuck with a dead battery across town (about 45 mins away). We beg and plead for help, saying "we're broke, in a bad part of town, about to get f-d up or robed".
The unsuspecting couple get dressed and drive across town, into a very bad neighborhood - looking for us on a corner of a street. Meanwhile, we're sipping margaritas in the privacy of our own house.
Around 4am I get a call -
Friend: "WHERE THE F*CK ARE YOU, A$$HOLES???"
Me: "What are you talking about?"
Friend: "You sh!thead, we can't find your g-d damn car!!!"
Me: "Umm... whada ya mean?"
F: "you said you had a bad battery and needed jumpstart!" 
Me: "Um... buddy, the only jumpstart I needed was to start an... APRIL FOOL'S DAY EARLY!!!!!!!!!!!! SUCKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!"
...click
Off I go to sleep.
Wake up around 10, still hung over from the night before. About to run out to get some groceries for breakfast. Come outside - my car is gone. WTF??? I call my buddy. I can't get him to talk to me for 10 or so agonizing minutes - He'd say "hello" and hang up as soon as I start saying something. Finaly...
friend: "WTF DO YOU WANT?"
me: "WTF? where is my car?"
friend: (After using every curse word known to man) What the F*CK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? ARE YOU PLAYING ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR APRIL FOOL'S JOKES, MOTHERF-R???!!!!"
me: "No, dipsh!t - I'm serious, where the hell is my car!!! I'll report it to police and if you took it - I SWEAR, I will have your azz in jail!"
friend: "I have no friggin idea dude. I didn't take it. YOU'RE PLAYING ME AGAIN, AREN'T YOU???"
me: "liar, I know you were paying me back"
friend: "Dude, I have no idea... srsly, that wasn't me. I'm pissed but not crazy enough to steal your car!!!"
Shouting, name calling, threats continue for some time.
at this point I'm pretty pissed but start to believe him, thinking "Karma IS a b!tch". As I'm about to call the cops, I see a towtruck pull up next to my house with my car in tow. Windshield has a nice big inscription - "APRIL FOOL'S DAY TO YOU TOO, B!TCH"
...I had no idea my friend's girlfriend's dad was a tow truck driver... He came out with them to jump start us.... and was just as pissed. His idea was actually to have my car taken to junk yard, scrapped and delivered in boxes to be left outside my door. Luckily, the sanity prevailed.
So, be careful who you pull "April Fool's day" on.
