This morning the composer of the new musical I've been working on came in and told us that the finale (which we had spent roughly the last 2 days learning and blocking) was being cut. There was about 5 seconds of stunned silence before we all realized what day it was. It woke us up pretty well at least.

Not sure about this one, but I just saw a story that claimed that Ashton Kutcher was going to play Steve Jobs in a biopic. I really hope that was a prank.

I cried... and cried and cried and cried.

Its like you're about to have sex with a hot woman and right before she takes it all off she kicks you in the nuts and runs.

Got to work at 6 am and my manager said 'What are you doing here, you don't work today' Put my coat back on and left to go home, an hour later my manager's manager calls and asks where I am -.-
Haha, ouch, how'd that go?

(Hope you're still employed)
My manager got in trouble, not me.

Criterion Collection announced the DVD and Blu ray release of Kindergarten Cop, complete with fake bonus features, cover art, and promo video.

I believed it for a good 20 seconds or so. Hey, they released Armageddon on DVD, so why not? Knowing it was fake made me wish it was real.

Someone buttered or waxed the floors in the showers in my dorm. Almost killed myself. They also put shaving cream on the door to the floor. I avoided the last one but damn did the shower floor piss me off.

Also World of Tanks did a great one

I was fooled for a few seconds with this one:


Then just went along for the ride, and I laughed hysterically towards the end.
HAHA oh god, that was good. Best one I've seen yet besides the Toonami prank.
Right?

I think I watched it three times already, hilarious. The Toonami one was pretty good, but very very cruel. :(

I was just getting off my xbox when I decided to flip the channel on a whim. I was tired enough that I didn't really question it, but I wouldn't say fooled, more rolling with the moment. A nice treat to have after so long.

https://twitter.com/#!/ZeRootOfAllEvil/status/186387131608993792 This tweet. It shouldn't have worked. I should have looked at the calendar but NOOOOOOOOOOO. It woke me up though, meaning I was totally prepared when everyone started screaming "TOONAMI IS BACK! TOONAMI IS BACK!"

Not that I don't wish it was, nor do I not wish that I could've watched it. It sucks being here in the UK sometimes.

Calumon: None, 'cos I'm not silly. :p
i hope they had the highest ratings theyve ever had that night so we can get the dam thing back........... btw most dick move april fools joke ever.

Well, Steve Blum kind of told us [https://twitter.com/#!/blumspew/status/186502461329113090] to give CN feedback that we'd like Toonami to come back. So, if they saw a big spike in views yesterday and get a lot of feedback from people who want more Toonami, maybe there's still a chance but I wouldn't count on it.

HCBailly uploaded a video claiming to be Let's Play "The World Ends With You". Granted, it was an actual video of him playing the beginning of the game, but he made it seem like he would be playing through the whole thing. That is, until he ended with "find out never!"

I knew it would be a prank from the start. I forced myself to fall for it because I want it to happen soooooo much. I don't care what anyone says; I loved TWEWY. Despite all of the bad things that HCBailly has to say about it, I'd love to see him play through it.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to cry in the corner about what could have been.


As a side note, I despise April Fool's day. I really friggin' hate it. Even though the people around here don't really do anything for it, I still don't like the idea of it. Maybe I have no sense of humour, but I think that there is no day where it is acceptable to pull mean pranks on others, April Fool's or not.
