Lots of companies try to make fun and draw attention on April Fool's day. Lots of good ones over the years. Obviously my favorite was done right here on OSO in 2011.

Here is the thread announcing the changes at OSO.

This one was my favorite before 2011. Boy, some people were pissed off about this one before realizing he joke.

Not corporate but in my own house today.....

My teenage daughter put my phone in the Chinese language and put a piece of tape over my mouse "eye" so it didn't work...

Payback...

I thought of setting her bedroom set outside (but it is heavy, but if there were movers nearby it would be done!), taped the toilet paper to the roll, taped the toilet seat to the lid and my sister came up with the idea to put all large bras in her drawer and when she discovers.....ask "did your boobs shrink?"

May switch her box spring and mattress, do the water cup over the doorway trick but I have a few more hours before she gets out of school!

A number of years ago April 1 fell on a Thursday -

On Wednesday - Power Ball numbers are drawn.

I purchased a ticket on Thursday with Wednesday's winning numbers. Made a copy of the ticket and newspaper announcement faxed (remember fax???) all of it to my brother with the message -- See you on the beach!!

He fell for this - hook, line and sinker- he didn't bother looking at the dates

Important Message from the Minnesota Department of Lakes & Recreation Commissioner:

Due to our below average temperatures this winter in the state of Minnesota, the Department of Lakes & Recreation had to take steps to protect our fragile water systems and will be closing many of Minnesota’s most popular waterways. The thick ice caused by extreme cold has threatened fish populations due to oxygen starvation, and the fish will need extra time to recover. Due to this occurrence, watercraft use will be restricted on Minnesota lakes throughout the season.The impact damage and closing dates for each lake varies, please select FIND YOUR LAKE above to find out specifics for your body of water.

Last yr the Chronicle (our lake paper) said they were going to Drain the lake so they could clean all the beer cans on the bottom!
You would not believe how many people called to ask W T F are they doing that for.lol

This one is boating related, and had many people angry until they realized it was April fools !

A friend of mine is getting ready to buy a boat later this week and his girlfriend called him today to say no boat because I'm pregnant. He freaked out but she was just laughing her ass off because she was joking..

I just saw this one - thought it was kind of funny.
