Who here’s a fool?

Tag: Random silliness — Kerry Allen @ 3:09 am

Some of you were apparently anticipating an April Fools!!!1!1! prank from me. ‘Cause I’m a rascally little scamp or something.

Sorry to disappoint, but the only day that exeeds my distaste for Halloween (I’m all over wearing a costume, but going door to door begging for food if you don’t have to is too crass even for me) is April Fool’s Day.

a. It’s all about exploiting the gullible, which doesn’t magically become cool to me on the first day of the fourth month.

b. A lot of people get angry (often disproportionately so) upon being fooled, and Little Miss Hacks-With-Sword’s better half is Little Miss Can’t-We-All-Just-Get-Along.

c. A lot of people get injured because of some moron’s idea of a joke. (I don’t like America’s Funniest Laughing While the Dog Jumps on the Toddler Home Videos either. Crazy, I know, but I think they ought to show the emergency room visits and interviews with DSS that must follow most of those clips to discourage other morons from orchestrating similar situations to get on national television.)

Seriously, no April Fool’s Day “frivolity” from me.

To assuage your sorrow, I did, however, add additional smiley goodness to the comments section.

    I wouldn’t do that to you.
    I’d do THIS:

    Courtesy of my former favorite radio station, which used to play real music but switched format to “the best mix of the previous century” and serves up such cohesive runs as Captain and Tenille, followed by Wang Chung, followed by The Doors, followed by Wham!, followed by Tom Jones… When they played this, a little piece of my soul died.
    Consider yourself nelsonrolled.
