There are people who like April Fools’ pranks, and then there’s your significant other, who’s more likely to shoot you death stares than be a good sport.
People online are talking about “fun April Fools’ Day pranks to pull on your significant other, that DON’T involve making them sad.” Here are the highlights:
1. “I once changed my wife’s birthday on Facebook to be April 1st. She spent all day confused as to why she was getting ‘happy birthday’ messages.”
2. “I once painted my husband’s soap bar with clear nail polish, let it dry, and put it back in the shower. It would not lather no matter how hard he tried.”
3. “I had our five-year-old son pretend he found a big bug in the house. We put a raisin in a napkin . . . and he excitedly ran up to my wife and said, ‘Look at the bug I found, mommy!’ And before she could see it, he ATE IT in front of her.”
