My wife just called and told me she's pregnant!

She's been sick the past few days and called me to tell me she's pregnant.. I believed it until she said, "April Fools!".

We have 2 kids, but I want a boy.... she keeps saying she's done.

My girlfriend just called and told me she's pregnant!

I believed it until she said, "April Fools!". But then she said her husband fell for it too, so I don't feel as bad.

"I just got two tickets to Radiohead by being the 'first' to respond to a co-worker's 'first-come, first-serve' email. Someone else had already won them, but I told everyone to check their inboxes again. Everyone sort of knows I used Custom Time on this one, but I'm denying it."

My girlfriend told me she was pregnant too. She didn't get the "April Fools!" out until her head hit the 8th step.

edit: I heard this joke somewhere a couple years ago (and probably worded better). Not trying to take credit for it.

I got into work early with a few co-workers and covered another co-worker's desk with paper cups. We filled them all with water then stapled them all together. He still hasn't gotten all the cups off of his desk.

I agree--to the extent that the "jokes" remind me of this guy:

Zing! I Just Got You With Another One Of My Trademark 'Complete Lies'

Fooled you, didn't I? You actually thought I'd picked up the cake for Steve's going-away party on my way to work and put it in the breakroom fridge? You know, like I said I did? Zing! Looks like you're just the latest victim of one of my trademark "complete lies."

Here's a good gaming one, starring the main character from Assassin's Creed on a battlefield from a level in the upcoming game Metal Gear Solid 4. The new gameplay footage from MGS4 makes it work viewing even if you aren't big on April Fools Day.

M GO BLUE!!! · 04-01-2008, 07:26 PM

any men whose wives/girlfriends laid the "i'm pregnant" thing on them for april fools day as a prank should remember next year to tell them that "i love you, but i've been seeing (her friend, a neighbor, etc) and we can't keep it private anymore"

i don't think they'll find april fools day quite so funny...

Of course, if your reply to "i'm pregnant" on april fools day is "well, this whole relationship just isn't working for me," she'll actually be pregnant and you will never live your joke down.

Yeah, I think a better response is simply "Wow, you're the second person that's told me I'm going to be a father today."

My wife told my she was pregnant on April fools day, 7 years ago. I responded "Yeah. right. April fools." Turns out she was pregnant.

MJ4H, I just want you to share the joke that makes you hate this day so much

jeff061 · 04-01-2011, 09:40 AM

Well....to be honest old people falling down stairs is pretty funny.

But not quite funny enough to justify this day. Almost though.

There isn't a joke. It's the whole stupid idea. A day where people try way too hard to be funny is just painful all day long. The worst thing though is that you can't trust anything you read all day long. Heck, a couple of years ago I was reading a preview of a game I really wanted to play. I read all the way through the article. At the end, I found out that the game preview article was just an April Fools joke. The guy hadn't actually gotten to play it. And I read this article in JUNE. The website just didn't take the article down. I found the article through a web search.

I really don't know how stuff like that isn't infuriating to more people.

I walked my son to his classroom this morning and heard, 'APRIL FOOLS,' no less than fifty times. His teacher looked very unenthusiastic about the barrage of jokes.
