Yeah. Really funny people. I just my first obvious April Fool’s Day “joke” on Facebook.
These people should be charged with public mischief.
This one told residents of a certain city to ensure everyone was inside at 11:40 PM and that all windows and doors were closed because helicopters would be spraying disinfectants to eradicate the coronavirus.
Hilarious.
Maybe I lack a sense of humour, but April Fool’s Day jokes irritate me at the best of times.
These are not “the best of times”.
I hope the “funny” stuff is a bit more muted and thoughtful this year. I’m not holding my breath, though.
One more reason to be glad I’m not on FB.

Doesn’t FB have a “report this post” feature? Sounds like a good time for you to jokingly use that function.

Google announced that they weren’t going to do their annual April 1st stupidity. A think a lot of sites are following their lead. But users are another matter.

I posted this in the April mini-rants thread in the BBQ Pit.
Some idiot running a site here called “InternsinBeijing” decided it would be funny to send out a news announcement saying that foreigners are no longer permitted to work in China until the corona virus pandemic is over. Of course he linked to the actual offfical government announcement that China is not pernitting foreigners to enter China at the time, not that foreigners are out of a job. The idiot did this as an April Fool’s Day joke. He’s probably going to find out how humorous the government finds his stunt. It’s probably safe to say that for one person, his “joke” might come true.
So, it’s not just on feeb. Idiots abound.
All in all, April Foo’s Day needs to go away.
