The origins of April Fools’ Day go back as far as the Roman Festival of Hilaria. Now, it’s celebrated by normally well-behaved people pulling horrible pranks on their friends, expecting all to be forgiven when they yell, “April Fools!”
But wouldn’t it be great if some things actually were April Fools’ jokes? Here are my top five picks:
#5
Commercials for new medicines that recite long lists of gross side effects.
#4
Selfie Sticks.
#3
The Kardashians.
#2
Kardashians with Selfie Sticks.
And the Number One thing I wish actually was an April Fools’ joke:
#1
Presidential Candidate Debates.
Of course, that wish will never come true. So just brace yourself for another April Fools’ Day!
