There were a million ways this could have gone horribly, horribly wrong but I still think it’s hilarious.

That is hilarious and pretty harmless.

This is not an April Fool’s story but my brother and I are Irish twins (a prank unto itself) and one summer night when we were both 7 for a few weeks we had a very nice teenage girl babysitter. Her teen friends typically thought they were funny and were going to prank our sitter by coming over after dark and tapping…

That’s fucked up and I am picturing the kids on the editorial board laughing about it. In my head they are all wearing blazers and loafers and look like Paul Ryan.

And parents wonder why their kids don’t trust them. That is fucked up.

Cornell, my alma mater, is a private land-grant university meaning that generally, tuition is astronomical but they have big in-state tuition discounts for certain subsidized programs, which is how my family could afford to send me there. The school paper always prints a fake edition on April 1, but I was so stressed…

I...am so sorry. Holy shit. My mouth dropped open while reading that. That’s so fucking abusive.

My then husband had been in a severe industrial accident where both of his hands were crushed, one thumb was severed and he had several surgical pims and a plate put in. Needless to say he couldn’t care for himself for months and due to some worker comp schenangans he had no income either. It was an extremely…

Didn’t happen on April Fool’s day, but it should have. A few years ago, my daughter was flying home from college to visit for a few days. I bought her ticket, but it was cheaper to fly her into CT than NY, so I arranged to have my mother pick her up at the airport.

This will never show up. because I’m gray, but it is the shittiest prank anyone has ever pulled, IMO. Partly because it happened not on April Fool’s day, but on my birthday.

The “pranks” these days are far nicer than when I was in grade school. Worst prank? It was the same one every year. Kids would start running, pick up speed towards me and punch me in the stomach. Saying it was just a prank. Teachers thought it was hilarious. By 7th grade my mom (a teacher) decided to send me to a…

It’s my brother’s wedding anniversary. He married an anti-vaxxer. Does that count?

lately, every day is pretty much a shitty prank. Does that count?

Plus, you know, people realizing that they can say what they want but that doesn’t mean they aren’t going to face consequences.

Yes, sadistic, and possibly a control thing. If you aren’t into it, say it.

Run. fast.

Maybe the cheerleaders did something completely disgusting and amoral, like going to a restaurant with a married man.

I’m very curious as to what you define as “clean.” Visibly clean? Free of germs? Free of dirt?
