HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY!

You guys,
This is my favorite holiday! I have compiled some pretty awesome April Fool's Day pranks over the years! I'll let you in on my secret tricks, if that's the sort of thing that you like to do:

QUICKSAND TRICK
1. Figure out who you're going to play the prank on.
2. Get a shovel, a shitload of quicksand*, some sod, and $500 in gold bricks.
3. Go to the person's house when they're not home, or possibly fast asleep. I usually go there at like 3am, just to be safe.
4. Dig an 8 foot by 6 foot trench in their backyard.
5. Fill the trench with quicksand and then cover it with sod.
6. Put the gold bricks on the other side of the sod.
7. Hide in the bushes for a while and wait for them to discover that gold.
8. They see it now! Then they let their greed get the best of them and trust that their lawn is safe and that there's no way that they could possibly get tricked into falling into a trench full of quicksand!
9. They fall into the quicksand. If no one is around to see them struggle, they probably fight it and try to escape for a while, and then slowly but surely they sink to the bottom of the trench!
10. Break into their house, steal all of the valuables (jewelry, flat-screen television, important documents that you can use to steal their identity and abscond funds from their bank accounts after doing some major computer hacking into databases and whatnot, plus then find their most expensive clothes, their fancy microwave, etc.) Hey, you can steal whatever you want because that bitch is forehead-deep in quicksand and probably suffocating! Like they'll notice that you're looting their house?
11. Celebrate your victory by raiding their liquor cabinet of the finest scotch that you can find, dispose of the shovel, wipe off your fingerprints from when you broke into the house, and proceed to the pawn shop or "fence" so that you can sell all of their shit!

See, now THAT is a funny trick! I have several others, like the MICE IN THE TUPPERWARE trick and the SWEATPANTS THUNDER trick and, my personal favorite, the STEAL UNDERGRAD TRANSCRIPTS TO MAKE THEM A MORTUARY SCIENCE MAJOR trick!
