I wanted to pull a prank. I wanted to deck out a bunch of picks for a new Battling Dragons creature called Celphie, a five-legged cow with human arms from the joints down.
'Course, that would have been just a big joke, but I could not find the time to make a fake creature much less real ones. It woulda scared people something awful tho'
I am missing all the big days -- no St. Patrick's day, no Ides of March, and now no April Fools. I am far behind the times

Just make an alternative theme that can be switched in at the press of a button in the CGI entitled "happy whatever day" and put it in whenever soemthing of intrest pops upTheres a long gap between staring at the sun, and creating a hydrogen bomb; In the duration between them you'll just go blind.

Well our science teacher sez has anyone done the homework, and I never do class work even, so I waked me hand up and said oooh I did it, so she goes Well Cameron, explain the.... Then I jumped outta my chair and screamed April fools! Twas pretty funny considering the head teacher was at the door and loughed instead of being a grumpy cunt. Thats bout it.This is Frenzal Rhomb Link, cause they are the besterest band ever.

My teachers really got into it. In Social Studies (history) our teacher said that we were going to have a cummulative test of all 11 chapters that we've done this year. We caught onto that one pretty quickly.
In math our teacher handed out a quiz that wasn't beyond our capability of doing, but it looked a mess and would have taken us ages. Example: -32xy to the -third over 15x to the 5th y to the -17 times (-3)to the -3rd x to the -2nd y to the -2 over -3 to the -3rd x to the 3rd y to the 2nd X.x What a mess?
Here's my favorite of all. In science we were having a test and the teacher was about to leave the room when she comes running towards me saying "I saw that!". As everyone in the room turns and looks at her she continues to yell, now at the person sitting right next to me, "I saw that Melanie!" "huh?" "You were looking at Nikki's paper! Don't think that I didn't see you copying from the doorway!" Poor Melanie just sat there in total confussion. It was priceless ^____________^ That was my April fools day I wish every April first could be so fun!~*SailorSassyStar*~

call me crazy, but I like long algebra problems...
The right is just X
Hmm, the left doesn't simplify much, only to this:
-32*Y^14
--------
15*X^4
That would mean it is (-32*Y^14)/(15*X^3)
Is that the actual problem? I know if I was pulling such a prank, I'd have it result in 0, meaning all the work would be for nothing!
Oh, I managed to avoid getting pranked!
As for me pranking anyone, I was too lazy to.
Lol, if you thought the algebra was a little too complicated, why not integrate the answer from 1 to 5 with respect to X? ^^ That'd really freak out an algebra class...
For me, things were too sleepy to mess with anyone. I could have, just by turning around and pretending to make idle conversation (something I NEVER do) then say something like "[the preceding pointless BS has been brought to you by April Fools' Day] ^_^ "
Anyway, none of that, I spent the day sleeping and playing Pocket Monsters. On the bright side, my Saanaito won the Intelligence contest, and Bashaamo won the Coolnes Contest. If only I knew what ribbons are good for...Anta ga otosh'ta no wa Kin no Ono ka na?

The mathematical definition of the square root of -1 is "i" ... *cough* I'm ashamed to know that.
Oy, 'twas a boring day for me as well. No pranking done by or at me, but I did manage, however, to get an April Fools' Day comic up for NQH. Course, it's only funny to like, two people. Sign...

Lugiatrainer, I never said that I didn't know how to do it, but it'd take forever and there are way to many possible ways to screw up. Nice try though. Also, I don't have anything against algebra, but that was a bit much.
Oh, don't feel too bad MadGoblin, I knew about the squared root of -1 too. Evil math teacher tells us all sorts of junk that we don't need to know about. I'm only in 8th grade! I don't give a crap about that junk...wait a second...I just did... I'm sorry I even brought up the subject of math.~*SailorSassyStar*~

I know, I just had to solve that problem.
As for i, I've been using it a bunch since I'm in pre calculus.

Man Sobriety last night was so f***en awesome, I dont think I have ever moshed so hard, plus I got 2 shirts I bought there signed by everyone but the drumer, and when another band was on, I stayed outta the mosh pit cause it wasn't my style of music, and I met Lindsay the lead guitarist of the Rhomb, what a f***en champion he is!
and being the genius I am, I went and bought the most expensive batteries for the camera I could find, only to realise the batteries where the wrong size :S

*cough* I just thought I'd check back for a little while... I've been... uh... busy.
And I think that "i" is common knowledge amongst people who have at least taken Algebra II. It ain't really that hard of a concept to understand. (I felt like sayin' ain't.)
As for April Fool's Jokes, I usually don't have to plan... the jokes will come to me. Just hang around some people who don't think too fast and it'll just happen eventually. It's really funny when you turn their own joke against them.
Other Person: "Hey, your shoe's untied!"
Me: "Yeah, it is."
*Other person looks at my shoe*
That was pretty sad when someone fell for their own joke. I guess that was really all I did... I'm just not heartless enough to pull a big joke on anybody. Heartless probably isn't the right word there, but it'll have to work, since I'm too lazy to fix it.

It's about time you got back! I challenged you about 2 weeks ago and you never resonded. Anyway, about the i thing I just started square roots and junk this week and she told us about that over 2 months ago. I'm only in algebra one, so...yah.
Some people will fall for just about anything, like you said. They try using the oldest jokes that everyone knows too. One year when somebody pulled the same thing on me and I told them the same thing, that I knew it was untied. Then they looked down and told me that I didn't even have shoe laces, so I said that I knew that. I got them all confussed. It was actually true though. My shoe actually was untied, but it wasn't on my foot. It was my shoe keychain. That just makes me think of you signature. Sadly, it's quite true.~*SailorSassyStar*~
