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!

For the remainder of the day all users will have their userpic replaced with a picture of them dressed as their favorite animal. 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.

Per the mod plotting post, you may use this post to obtain one of this month's freebies! This month's freebie can be earned by turning in a thread on this post that has 5 or more consecutive comments from you with someone new. We define someone new as someone new to the game, or simply someone your character has never tagged before.

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given.

Mostly miss is better than being fully hit, I'd say.

As far as April Fool's pranks, yes, yes it could be much worse.


[He's got his birthday today. Guess whose had to field a lot of pranks from friends/family.]

You haven't had this app for long have you? Do you particularly enjoy your reality being ripped apart and things not making sense?

Admittedly, no. But at this point in the evening, I'm just going to have to ride this. Please excuse the fact that I am, in fact, to new to all this.

Well then...

WELCOME TO THE LAST APP YOU'LL EVER NEED OR WANT!

Like seriously, after this app, you will question ever downloading an app on your phone ever again.

...sure.

[Can you read the sarcasm. Because it's there. Although, you did make him laugh a little, so there's that.]

I'm already beginning to question this. So I suppose that's something.

If you weren't questioning this, I'd think you'd be insane.

I'd be more surprised if there wasn't such an individual who is just rolling with all this. There's always someone.

Oh, I'm sure there are plenty. To be honest, if you keep trying to fighting this you'll be burnt out and stressed really fast. So, choose the things you want to resist and let other things slide. I know that sound horrible, but cracking can me worse.
