Ah, April fools day, the one day of the year that you can scream "The house is on fire! The house is on fire" when it is thoroughly not on fire and (if you play your cards right) not be flogged for an hour straight. That hilarious not-actually-a-holiday holiday that doesn't make me want to cry in despair and envy (i.e. valentines day)
or tear my hair out in embarrassment at the U.S.'s outstanding shot at cultural misunderstanding (i.e. St. Patrick's Day). It is the only non-holiday holiday in which we do not continually misunderstand widely recognized cultures around the world, unless I'm missing something, and April Fools day is actually yet another distortion. In which case, I apologize for being an idiot. I'm sure the information is not entirely new. Anyhow, I would just like to point out that these "holidays" are perpetuated by rich companies in an attempt to convince you to spend your life savings on whatever they sell. Also, they break that desolate gap between Christmas/Hanukah/ New Years and next Thanksgiving. And who doesn't want to watch cute couples make out in the hallways as they exchange gifts, and laugh and talk and smile as if they're just sooooooo happy and there are flowers everywhere, and that weird boy over there is looking at you funny and Ahhhhhhhhhhh...
Yep that's it. Bet you thought this was gonna be about some funny prank well ha jokes on you. I am still a loser!!!
(battle cry) (I have no idea how to type it, use your imagination)
me thinks you would be great fun at a family party
