I hate April Fool's Day.
Edited on Sat Apr-01-06 07:08 PM by Sparkly
I've always hated it. I hate practical jokes. I hate people scaring other people and then saying "April Fools!" I hate anything that precedes the words "April Fools!" It's like a big excuse for lying and freaking people out and I hate the whole thing.

I just felt a need to say that.

Thank you.

3. Today is my younger sister's bd, so we love it in our family.
we don't really associate this day with all the trickery, but as you can imagine, she's been teased a lot, throughout the years, having been born on this day.
so I can certainly understand where you're comin' from...

:hug:

4. Since you preceded "April Fools" with "I hate", does that mean....

5. I don't much care for it myself
Especially when the day is used as an excuse to humiliate or hurt someone.
