Good morning to you too! Ah, April Fools' Day, the day of pranks and jokes. Well, I remember one April Fools' Day when I changed all the clocks in the house to different times so that everyone was completely confused about what time it actually was. It led to some hilarious moments as people kept checking their phones repeatedly!
What about you? Do you have any memorable April Fools' Day jokes that stand out for you?

When I was a child, my father would come into my bedroom 6:30 in the morning, yelling "Get up fast, we overslept!!" then watching me jumping into my clothes still sleep drunken until I recognized it was a holiday...
Plug in a wireless keyboard to your coworker's computer, then occasionally hit J.
Good morning ✌️🧡
The button on Reddit.
Tell me more?
About a decade ago, Reddit pulled an April Fools prank at:
https://www.reddit.com/r/thebutton/
On that page was a button and a timer that counted down from 60 seconds and reset fairly often. It caused a lot of confusion and a schism in the community between people who pressed the button on those who didn't. If you pressed the button, you got a little colored circle next to your name in that subreddit. On the first day, a bunch of people got a purple circle with a 60 or 59 next to it. As it turned out, the timer reset any time someone pressed the button. You got a different color depending on the decade you pressed the button (60-51, 50-41, etc)
There was a lot of speculation and debate about what would happen as the button was allowed to count down. Dozens of religions formed to enshrine various beliefs and strategies for dealing with the mystery of the button. Many people wanted to let the timer run down as fast as possible, whereas others wanted to keep it going as long as possible. People made spreadsheets and dashboards and everything else to monitor the button and carry out their plans.
The button remained alive 3 months or so as people kept pressing it, and the timer finally ran down to zero, and the prank ended.
Good morning Rex!
In 2018, went Elon Musk announced that Tesla was going bankrupt as an April Fools joke. The joke quickly backfired when the stock lost 7%. Shareholders were not happy 🤡

I went to the local coffee shop and told them i was doing my part for climate change and i would no longer be buying coffee there.
Their face was priceless because they know i am anti climate change and i drink coffee there everyday.
April fools...
Why did the hipster burn his mouth?
He drank the coffee before it was cool
In college, I rotated someone's computer display by 180° in windows and in the video card settings. The result is a normal looking screen, but up and down on the mouse were inverted.
Probably was not an April fools joke, we were always pranking in my dorm
