HAHA!! Late April Fools!!
Edit: Sorry, I didn't mean to offend anyone

Thumbs down

I actually had a serious reply in mind... This has actually happened to me before.

You got me.

Yeah, how is this a joke? It does happen, you know. Practically all of us have experienced temporary loss of speech, and occasionally it's permanent.

I do not hate all jokes.
I just hate jokes at expense of others.
Like these.
They are like white lies except they are more egotistical than white lies.
Although white lies are almost the definition of egotistical, telling a lie so one can feel good is never better than the truth, this has no benefit to anyone except the joker.

I seriously don't understand why this be offensive. Yeah he posted a false thread but why does that upset people?

No one got upset what I did with my joke but I did upset one of my friends because she thought it was serious. Then she called me a brat and bad girl in her PM and calling me Munchhausen when she saw it was a joke.

You had me fooled. I was concerned for you and I go silent sometimes. I am not annoyed by it though. It was just a joke and you sir, got me. Well done.

Oh my...... You have got me there.

Ehh. I think it was just kind of a flopped joke, not a huge deal.

A good april fool's joke convinces someone (momentarily) of something that, had they thought about it more thoroughly, they would have known it was false. If you make it too realistic, you're not including the "fool" part of it (in the sense of "not thinking hard enough" rather than "I've fooled you"). After all, I could fool you into thinking I was wearing a red shirt today when I was actually wearing a green one; but it wouldn't be particularly funny because it's entirely possible, and not at all out of the ordinary, for me to wear red shirts. Now, if I were to claim I was wearing a gorilla suit to class today, that might be a good prank if I convinced you of it, because such a thing would be entirely out of character for me (I am much more likely to wear Renaissance garb).

Neither offended nor amused.

I thought the whole point of April Fools is to make something up and have someone fall for it and then you reveal to them it was a April Fools joke. Same as when the pianoist pretended she broke her finger by slamming a drawer on it and she was holding her finger and was non verbal when my choir teacher kept asking her if she is okay. Then she went "April Fools"and we all laughed. My teacher was happy it was a joke because she had her scared for a moment because she was wondering who was going to be playing the piano for her as she works with us. Then we all are handed a piece of music to read and we open it and see all the music notes are rests. Our teacher goes "April Fools." I was 17 when this happened.

I told my husband when he got home this morning I heard he has been cheating on me and I want a divorce. He went "what?" and then he saw I was laughing. I sucked at the act and couldn't make it real.

u got me

You got me too. I was going to say that for some time when I was depressed I also didn´t talk with anyone.
