I fell for one at work. It was ridiculous but just believable enough in the details to totally pull it past me. I didn't even make it to the end of the email (where there was a P.S. April fools!) before I ran out of my office, freaking out!
I wrote an article for our little internal newsletter that apparently some people fell for. It involved mimes so I am actually surprised it worked!
I'm pranking all my students My drama kids have their first speech of the quarter tomorrow and we were supposed to be doing rehearsals today. I told him that something came up and I didn't have a babysitter for my kids tomorrow so they would have to give their presentations today instead. They freaked!!
For my English students I told them they did absolutely terrible on their silent reading projects and the highest grade I gave out was a C-. I actually felt bad about that because I had some kids really believing it and they were the kids have never gotten lower than an A. I only strung them along for a few seconds because I thought some of them are going to start crying!

I can't tell a prank related lie without laughing, so I won't be playing any pranks today. I wish I could sneak in our bedroom and get H's phone, but he's sleeping.
I used to change my name in his contacts to the name of one of his coworkers or relatives and send really strange text messages. His looks of confusion were priceless.

I fell for one at the end of the day. A fellow teacher told a couple of us that he won the lottery and that tomorrow is his last day. He was incredibly believable. Apparently all his students fell for it, too.
I love April Fools even though I'm super gullible. A friend who graduated from Berklee School of Music and plays bagpipes posted that he's giving up the instrument since it's too loud and too hard to get in tune with other instruments. I was writing my comment (basically "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!") when he fessed up that it was a joke. Totally had, and before 9am.
