April Fools Jokes!!!!!!

carole · 01 Apr 2010, 05:40

I don't know if it's normal to play pranks on this site on April Fools day or not, but my Avatar and signature have been changed. I don't know if it's that or something else. Has this happened to anyone eelse today? I tell you it freaked me out to see some strange guy as my Avatar instead of my picture with Meat!!!!!!

Carole,

Yes, it is an April Fools joke. I had a good laugh because it's not quite April Fools day for us in the states so I was off guard. But I read a thread before all others stating this fun little joke that had me rolling. It got me!

Thanks for that Suzie. It took me aback as well.

The best part of the joke is that you're the only one who sees the different avatar and signature

When I look at your avatar Carole, I still see the picture of you and Meat together, just like you probably
see my regular avatar. But when I see my posts, I see the picture of the guy with the signature

It's a classic

Gotta love April Fools Day on mlukfc.com !!

All I want to know is - does Meat also see the bald guy, and have his status shown as a "Playa" - Lol

I just now had to post just to see what you all are talking about. So here goes.

That is so funny. That is so cool. Good idea whoever did it. Good job.

This April Fools joke definitely saved my day. Thanks!

Definitely one of the better online April Fools I've seen today! Although my favourite here so far has to be the year that Swedish Chef took over the forums

One of the guys at my work called one of the other office girls and pretended he worked at a radio station, told her she had won a comp she had entered and asked for details and then said they'd call her back, lol, she was a little upset he he

I had most of my family going. I told them that it had just been announced on radio that because of the unseasonably bad weather the clocks were going forward another hour on Saturday night.

My mum was severely unimpressed she had used up the credit on her PAYG phone calling to tell her workmates

I was wondering exactly the same thing

Vickip · 01 Apr 2010, 16:51

I told the guys installing my new carpet that it was the wrong color

They laughed, but said I should have waited until they had the entire house done

**Monstro** · 01 Apr 2010, 17:58

R will run out of ideas one day lol

K1ttycat · 01 Apr 2010, 18:01

Right - going try this myself now! :)

K1ttycat · 01 Apr 2010, 18:03

lol.....fantastic.

I haven't seen too many april fool's jokes online this year - the google.co.uk is funny but not as detailed as the past few years....and the virgin media one was okay.....about them using ferrets to install more broadband wires!

Don't think that'll happen any day soon though

Anyone fall for any in the real world?

My dad just showed me a news article where the Liver Building is being moved piece by piece to New York.

Righteous indignation turned to a rather sheepish feeling when he said "April Fool"

Hook, line, sinker

**allrevvedup** · 01 Apr 2010, 18:07

Couple of football related ones

Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce has backed plans for referees to use a motorised two-wheeled personal transporter to help them keep up with speedy players.

West Ham will brave ridicule next season by wearing pink on their home shirts as part of a new sponsorship deal with adult retailers Ann Summers.
