Hello,
This is the story of the time I pulled an April Fools joke that was so cruel, my family hasn’t April Fools pranked me SINCE THEN.
In 2015, I was living in my first homeshare (I was forced to leave later that year and found my second homeshare, I’m in my third now, but I have a second story I will post shortly. It’s from a few days ago that ties me and another person in my current homeshare to my last one), and on April Fools day that year, I was still pissed about my parent’s joke from the year before. So I called my stepdad, we had a small conversation, and then, right as it was about to end, I pulled the WORST joke on them. I told them I got “kicked out”. Now, this wasn’t true, and it was in a sense, a WORST case scenario regarding my family. My stepdad said “”WhAAAAAT!?!?!” and told someone he was on another call with he would call them back. He then said to me “So WHAT did you say? You got KICKED OUT?” I then said “You do know that was an April Fools Day joke, right?” He, was PISSED. But that wasn’t the end of it. He then called my mom and said “You know Ken told me he got kicked out, right?” She nearly burst into a towering rage. Then my stepdad laughed, and my mom realized it was an April Fools joke. This, could have ACTUALLY got me kicked out that day, they were about ready to call my homeshare and unleash FURY on her. Thankfully they didn’t.
And THAT is the story, of the single worst April Fools joke on my parents.
Don’t do this joke. It’s not worth it.
