furtechHave I ever mentioned how much I hate April 1st?
I'm staying away from LJ today and pretty much ignoring posts made on this day. Anyone who makes a "OMD, I have CANCER! (just kidding!)" type post will be ignored forever...
Sorry to be such a poop. I love a good prank, but a good prank involveds good timing and situations. April Fools Day declares that any place or time is appropriate. Sort of like saying, "All jokes are officially funny today! So laugh-- NOW! Or be a poop!" Uh-uh. The one thing you can't do in comedy is declare that something be funny! Plus, I take my concern for others (especially my friends) seriously, and lying about serious badness is a betrayal of that trust.
But-- that said, have your fun! I'm just sitting this out.
