You know, I think some April Fool's pranks are okay! Like the silly ones they do on websites or the really good natured kind. But I am LESS okay with someone changing the ENTIRE layout of our entire building and giving us treasure maps to go around it which for the record my brother-in-law did and it's a pain!! There's some weird effects coming in from outside this planet at the moment, although they'll mostly miss the city itself. There'll be a localized temporal storm, but it shouldn't be more than a mild irritation. It looks like it's just going to yank some things around and send them on through. I think Maurice is going to call out sick that day, or if I were him I definitely would. Hey, I kind of want a four-leaf clover. I know that's more last month than this month, but still. If you find one, pass it along. Also, I want to do a cutesy April Fools thing, so don't get too mad!

It's pretty harmless as far as pranks go, and it will change back either at midnight or after trying to change the picture twice, prompting an "Are you sure?" message but no further ill effects.

hey so while i think joanne has a point about april fools i am about to do something unprecedented
i mean not in the pranking sense
this is 100% not a prank
but i am about to make this really obvious by using capital letters
i know i know a i really ready for this
are you
can we all handle the unbridled enthusiasm that is indicated by capslock
does it really speak from my heart

but anyway

SAVE THE DATE FOR APRIL 13TH
IF YOU KNOW JOHN EGBERT

there i think thats catchy enough consider this your invite
to johns bday party
which is friday the 13th bc of course it is
it will be a house with unfortunate clowns which maybe we will fix but maybe not who can say
anyway i guess you could technically also consider it to be a housewarming party
but mostly it is a birthday party
hell be 19
round of applause he hasnt fallen down a staircase and broken his record of being alive
im so proud
anyway
see you all there unless i dont know you and he doesnt know you in which case i guess we wont although
tbh
i think wed be chill with you showing up anyway bc john is a goober who likes new people

anyway thats it
wait fuck no its not

NO PEANUTS ALLOWED
ALSO HEADS UP JOHN EGBERT HAS A FUCKING NUT ALLERGY HE FORGETS ABOUT
SO DON'T GIVE HIM NUTS

there maybe thatll keep him like breathing
did you know he took me to dinner the other day and it was to a place where all the desserts p much had nuts and he forgot to ask
its not going to be anything weird that kills him
its going to be a peanut
so do your part and remember he has an allergy and also that hes dumb

anyway THATS it
oh nah its not it if were asking people for random items you know what i want
that burger badge thing
everyone get on that post haste

[ also included is like, an address an a time on the 13th, so there you go. ]

[deathboss]

Wait are there really gonna be clowns.

[At this point, he takes everything as something that is entirely possible.]

[parodeity]

just some paintings
were working on it

[deathboss]

I have...so many questions right now. Is this related to your webcomic?

Sorry I've played too many horror games lately and clowns are just...you know. Clowns.

[naught_again]

Congratulations on writing what I think should be the dictionary definition of tl;dr.
Why not just stick to the capslock bits?
You want a cookie for not pulling a prank on April Fool's?
Such restraint.

[parodeity]

did you comment to this for a reason
later ig??

[naught_again]

I'm trying to figure out if this kind of thing is going to be common
Announcing birthdays on an app in a convoluted "come if you want, idc" fashion
Instead of mailing out invitations directly - even online.
Or if it's just your personal style along with the eye-piercing red.

[notyourutopian]

How allergic are we talking?
If I threaten him with a bottle of peanuts will he run away?

[parodeity]

deathly will die allergic

[invocate]

I had no idea John was allergic to nuts!

[and now she's trying to remember if John ate any of the snacks she made back in February... several of which absolutely had nuts... but considering John is still alive... probably not... but omg what a thing to learn after the fact]

[parodeity]

yeah hes not good at like telling people so ive decided its my new job

[fiddlestick]

[oh no this is adorable. No wonder John/Dave is his OTP]

Haha, thanks for letting us know! I'll be there!
And I'll make sure there's no nuts in anything I bring.

[parodeity]

thanks elliot that helps
since like
he kind of just picks up snacks at parties?
w/out checking
like a boss

[grimdeity]

I have never, in the 18 years that I have been your sister, seen you use so many capital letters at once.
Honestly, I feel faint.

[parodeity]

will you ever be able to accept the new me rose

[blessmefather]

Did he eat one of those desserts? I hope he's feeling alright.

[parodeity]

nah he didnt
i remembered before he did

[glaciers]

How does anybody forget an allergy like that?

[parodeity]

he gets caught up in things

[windeity]

ah. so this is why i've had people congratulate me on not dying and warn me about my allergies.

[parodeity]

[robitussin]
