One of Google's April Fools' jokes has already failed spectacularly



April Fools' Day is barely underway, and Google has already had a joke backfire: A "mic drop" button in Gmail that inserted a GIF from the Minions movies into an email reply, and then hid all subsequent replies, ended up infuriating people who use their Gmail for professional reasons.

I would vote for any party that promised to outlaw this tradition.

I am always on the receiving end of April Fools jokes every year. Most of them are of the unimaginative juvenile variety, loosening all the screws on my desk chair, pepper mixed in with the coffee can in the office kitchen, clicking on links to gay porn and that kind of Beavis and Buttheadish stuff.



Has anyone been on the receiving or planning end of  a creative April Fools joke.?

No, nothing creative.



I always got the old kitchen sink hand sprayer wrapped with a rubber band trick. Like the dummy that I am I fell for it all the time. It's such a treat to be dressed for work and go to get some water from the kitchen sink and get blasted in the chest with cold water. :nea:

The pranks are always at work and thankfully no sprayer on the work kitchen sink.
