April fool's advice...

Pink stormtroopers! Roffles, I'd give the thumbs up for that one.

One problem I see with that idea is being able to deliver it with a serious face without totally cracking up before you tell him it's an april fool's...

*Edit:
Oh, and I probably don't have to say how bad an idea pretending to break up with someone for "fun" is, because you already seem to know it's a terribly terrible idea.

 

Tell him you found god and you wanna lead a heterosexual life.
better yet tell him you found a girl

 

"Old gray mare" still looks like girl-next-door hottie to me, pardnah. Count your blessings, you March fool. . .

 

April fools jokes with personal relationship issues aren't such a good idea, I think.

When I was younger and foolisher, I did two at work a couple years apart.

1st, on a really big multi-month development project with a very hard non-moveable deadline of May 1, after we'd been working on it for a few months already, I wrote a long memo to my boss explaining that the work directory had accidentally been deleted, since it was new for this project only we'd forgotten to add it to the backup scripts in the first place, so it was all gone. . . and no way to redo the work again to meet the deadline. I went on and on for, well, 10 paragraphs. The first, capitalized, letter of each para spelled out APRIL FOOLS. She read it with me sitting at her desk looking grim. She turned gray and started sweating. She asked me questions about how this could happen. After a bit I finally told her that maybe there was one way out. . .and suggested she look at the first letter of each para. . .

She yelled, threw things at me, then ran off with it to pull the same trick on other Vice Presidents. . . But then we had a really good relationship anyway, or I wouldn't have tried such a thing.

2nd, and worse one, still feel bad about. Changed the logon of an IT coworker/project team leader, to start an initial job at logon that said "Deleting all production files. Would you like to Continue (Y/N)?" Of course it didn't matter what you entered. . . it went off for 30 lines of "DELETE" "DELETE" "DELETE", etc. At the end of which, it looped back and asked the question again. . .she's freaking, I'm yelling "What did you do? What did you do? My god, answer 'N' this time!" Etc.

That one was mean. She wasn't too stable a person and I think I damn near gave her a nervous breakdown. The only good thing was she was so relieved to find out it was a joke that she didn't complain to management. . .

 

Sounds like a great joke. I'm sure your boyfriend will absolutely never have any doubt about you or your relationship with him in the future after making such a joke about your relationship with him. You know him enough, right?

 

You one crazy mofo

 

Heh, a much better pic. I bought her an Oreo ice cream cake, which is what she wanted. Hard to cut, but oh-so-fun to eat.

I played a really mean April Fool's on my wife about 10 years ago. She used to work 3rd shift at the hospital and I was awake in bed. when she got off that morning. I have large lungs (based on a college biology test we did in lab years ago for air capacity) and can hold my breath for a long time. So she walks into the bedroom and I'm laying there with my eyes open like I'm dead. She runs over in a panic and started crying, so I had to end it there. Man, I was in hot water for a few days.

 

Maybe she was crying because your life assurance hadn't been underwritten yet?

 

Now that was really quite heavy!

 

LOL I was a grad student at the time so that is a distinct possibility.

 

You rule

 

Well...?
