How April Fool Killed His Dad. by Rhymez(m): 11:36am On Apr 04, 2011
April fool is fun, YES! But it is brings evil also. My friend lost his dad because he was trying to catch the fun in April. He told his dad who was in office that his mum is at home dying. The dad who was shocked left his office hurriedly and started coming home. After hours of waiting for him to come home so he(my friend) can laugh at him, he didnt show up. It was later that evening that the news came to him that his father had a motor accident and died at the spot. Do u think April fool is really fun?

April fool is only fun when it is being played right. There are so many ways to make a fool of someone without causing disaster. That was an expensive one. I love April fool and I play it without hurting anyone.

That (emboldened) is a very careless, insensitive, eediotic, foolish, poorly thought out joke to play all in name of one useless April fool day,

If I were that father and had made it home alive, that boy would have received the beating of his life. angry angry angry angry angry

Of course I did, and was made to face the consequences, the same which I'll mete out to the lad.

But come on, the death of a person how much more my wife/mother (GOD FORBID) is not something to joke about. shouldn't there be a line somewhere? heck, there must be a million other things to joke about FCOL!!

mr suya,
impromptu jokes are not planned or rehearsed, so the joke might have come straight to the guy without any after tot,
he had no intention of killing his dad, is it?
how many pranks played out in my secondary school days that would have killed @ the instant.
was it a shotput that was replaced as a ball and unsuspecting student asked to kick it for a laugh or hanging hot water above the room door that could instantly cause 2nd degree burn ?
all these were daily pranks then that had no malice attached.
so what separate those with what the guy did , a life was lost unfortunately but wasn't planned that way.
and that is the joke.

Get me right: I do not begrudge kids doing some silly pranks every now and then, they after all just kids. I certainly don't believe the guy wanted his dad dead. . .but he died.

If I as an adult find a particular joke distasteful, are you saying it should be overlooked simply because ''we all use to do it''? for instance, the hot water incident could you listed above could have turned out very badly indeed, so what do we do to the young lads, laugh it off, because they are kids?

Whether or not the joke had a malicious intent, or was planned/rehearsed is, in my view, beside the point. The fact is there will always be consequences: good, if the joke goes as planned and they all laugh about it, or bad as in the tragic case above. In each case, they must face the consequences whether or not it was intended..

for the case of the dead, we let this rest.
