A Reminder on April Fools Day To Avoid Trouble
APRIL FOOLS DAY – Here is a list of the jokes and pranks that you must avoid on April 1, 2024 to prevent huge trouble.
The month of April ios fast approaching. Before you get drowned on your excitement for the April 2024 holidays, it is best to be reminded to be extra cautious in believing certain things on the first day of the upcoming month.
April 1 is regarded as the “April Fools Day”. Everytime it hits the calendar, countless jokes and pranks are taking place. However, there are important matters that must not be the subject of your jokes and pranks if you want to avoid big problems.
Don’t fake an Emergency
Emergencies should never be faked even on April Fools Day. Do not call 9-1-1 to prank them with a fake emergency or any other emergency hotline in your country. There are a lot of things that can go wrong and create real emergencies.
Also, there might be other emergencies out there that really need the help that may be provided on the fake emergency. Such move can hinder the capability of some emergency personnel to respond to actual emergencies.
I’m pregnant
Joking that you are pregnant may just be a funny way of joining the April Fools Day celebration but it can elicit many different kinds of reactions from countless people most especially if the announcement is done online. It can trigger an emotional strain for nothing and may be an insensitive move for those who are unable to get pregnant.
I’m sick or dying
This is another thing that you should not joke about on the first day of April 2024. It can cause confusion, sadness, stress, and even great emotional distress on the part of the people who truly care for you. It may also be insensitive for those who are facing serious medical conditions to just joke around death.
I’m engaged
Joking about engagement is also not recommended on April Fools Day. It can trigger high emotions and would put you and your partner on a huge deal of pressure or stress. It may also bring your partner into an uncomfortable situation.
We’ve broken up
While it is not adviceable to make a joke telling everyone that you are engaged, breaking up with your partner should not also be a subject of entry for the day meant for jokes and pranks. It can lead some family members and friends to finally release the negative opinions they hold about your partner and these can leave you in a state of confusion and your family and friends in an uncomfortable situation afterwards when the joke is revealed. This move can stain relationships.
Don’t point your pranks/jokes on traumas
Do not do something that trigger intense fear towards another person. You might be aware that your sister is afraid of cockroaches and throwing a plastic one while she’s sleeping will really make her get out of bed. However, this can lead to an emergency or can trigger her trust issues when sleeping.
