April Fools

I yield to the great Dwight Schrute and his interaction with the Dunder Mifflin Infinity website to describe my mood: I've just become self-aware and have risen from a blogless-slumber only to find people playing practical jokes on one another.
I really don't mind practical jokes, really. But when they are ill-conceived or just fucking stupid, I'd rather look up things on wikipedia than watch those play out (read: pretend to laugh). No offense, gower, wikipedia's a worthy past time. I just find un-planned stupidity to be just that, stupid, and it seems that so many people wait until March 31st to plan these jokes, not leaving near enough time for proper preparation to either embaress the shit out of someone or get the laughs it deserves.
But today, I came upon an April Fool's prank that might be the funniest/worst/God might strike me down for spreading it joke i've ever heard. thus, where else to post it and spread it? So hear it goes, and if it's out of line, well, I don't really care, because it's the best April Fools prank i've ever heard of:

It's the first of April, and Joe is out of town on business. He returns home to find out that his wife is at the hospital in labor having their first child. He rushes to the hospital, and goes to his wife's side. She has already had the child. He goes to the nursery to see the baby.
He spots the name on a crib and motions to the nurse. She points at the crib and Joe says, "Yes, he's my son." The nurse picks up the baby and drops it on the floor.
Joe is aghast.
The nurse says, "Don't worry." She picks up the baby and slaps it hard across the face several times.
Joe turns white in horror as she throws the baby across the nursery.
Joe is about to faint as she holds the baby by it's testicles and swings it around her head.
Joe screams, "Stop you're kiling my baby!!!!"
The nurse responds, "April Fools... It was born dead..."

The silver medal goes to the radio show hosts that decided to play an April Fools prank on one of their wives. The man was silent in the background while the other ones talked to his wife on the line while they were on the air. They told her that he had been cheating on her. She blew up, obviously, and began screaming over the phone about how much of an asshole he was. The crew was giggling in the background, trying to hold in the laughs, but everything went south when the wife said, "No I don't feel so bad for fucking his brother for 2 years!" How about that for an April Fools?

please feel free to respond or rebutt if you happen to love the day and the pranks it carries with it. until then, good day.
