It's not because WaP lacks a sense of humor or because we don't like a good prank.
We hate it because the "jokes" end up making us sad or disappointed that they are not, in fact, actually true.
For example, the famous spaghetti tree incident of 1957. Yeah, of course there can be no such thing as a spaghetti tree. But think about how COOL it would be if there were!
We mean seriously, look at it. Spaghetti! That grows on a tree!
And this year's google mail prank: Gmail Custom Time
Think about how rad it would be. Yes professor, I totally emailed that paper in on time! LOOK AT THE TIME STAMP! Oh, Mr. WaP I totally did not forget your birthday but sent that email greeting card at midnight on the dot. LOOK AT THE TIME STAMP!
WaP dislike April Fool's jokes because they prey on people's hopes and dreams that magic has finally turned into reality. They're a little bit mean.
Most importantly, we don't like them because we are gullible and fall them every. damn. time.
It's getting embarrassing, really.
