No one is quite sure how the April Fools tradition started. And I’m sure no one knows who came up with these pranks.

RIP Jackie Chan

I don’t keep tabs with how many times Jackie Chan and Keanu Reeves have died in the past few years. The story is always the same: he died while performing a dangerous stunt for his new film. I wasn’t aware that they still have active careers.

“I’m Pregnant” Joke

We all know at least one desperate person who tried this joke. One of my colleagues actually tried it today, and failed.This prank is as tired as Kim Kardashian’s bra strap. If you’re really expecting a baby, please hold your excitement until two days after 1 April.

Filling someone’s drink with a substance

There are so many ways to do this prank. The most common is Viagra or soy sauce. If someone were to hand me a bottle of soy sauce, disguised as Coke, joke’s on them because I love drinking soy sauce.

The whoopee cushion

Also known as a farting bag and poo-poo cushion , is a practical joke device, used to produce human flatulence. I often laugh at fart jokes, but the whoopee cushion isn’t very creative.

Anything to do with fake poo

This is just disgusting. Imagine seeing fake poo on your toilet seat. Or worse; real poo.
