April Fools Pranks

Walyou has a great list of 100 April Fools Gags and Pranks.  This currently sold out mug from a UK company, Thumbs Up, is one of my favorites.

    I wonder how long the average recipient takes to figure out why people are laughing at them when they have a drink?? 🙂

      They need to throw them off more and have the side say “Worlds Greatest Employee”

      Maybe it should be a new way to advertise a webcomic.

    Exxxxxcellent cups

    They did an April Fools Joke on our local radio station here in Launceston & said that the council was going to replace the bells in the Post office clock tower with a digital talking clock, amplifier & loudspeakers & invited people to call in & audition to be the “Voice of the clock”. The city’s Mayor was even there to judge whose voice would be chosen.
    Amazing how many people rang in for it…
    Suckers!!!

    I like those mugs. Maybe next year I’ll ask UK friends to see what they’re selling.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      If available, I am sure the company would be happy to mail some to you.

    Oh, that’s funny as hell! I wish I hadda thought of something liek that when I was working at this pottery place making coffee mugs. 😀

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Where haven’t you worked??

      1. George Avatar

        Well, actually, I’ve never “worked” anywhere. I just try to look real busy and run around with paperwork in my hands, looking serious. 😀

    awe man… that cup is great! rip works with an evil boss that he’s constantly sparring with. wouldnt it be something if the “office b!tch” cup suddenly showed up on the supervisor’s desk? great find!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I could see you doing that and Rip getting blamed.

    So that’s why I get strange looks while I drink coffee in the office.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Your’s say “I am drinking liquid shit”

  12. danineteen Avatar

    Haha! That’s awesome! I want a witty one, just ’cause it’s different. 😀

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Just be careful who you use it in front of.

    I like the one that came with a set of batteries that said, “Toy not included.”

    1. Bearman Avatar

      They sell those constantly at the grocery store.

  14. Friggin Loon Avatar

    Imagine one of those mugs at a board meeting, especially for clients you hate blahahaha

    1. Bearman Avatar

      haha. This could be a whole new line of selling ad space.

      1. Friggin Loon Avatar

        cad space 🙂

  15. notapeopleperson Avatar

    Nice!!

    I have got to get one of those!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I think it would work good in your strip.

  16. Corve DaCosta Avatar

    Interesting.

    They all done to poke some fun. I was not fooled yesterday. I answered no calls and kept to myself. Maybe that is the reason why.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      haha. I picture you locked in a room with the blinds closed avoiding everyone.

  17. MJ Avatar

    Ha! These mugs are awesome. The previous two cartoons are a riot. Especially like the commentary!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      The commentary is why I do it.

    I think you’ve just found our future business, Bearman…

    1. Bearman Avatar

      You just work on the greeting card line started and try not to get ahead of yourself. Hallmark started with just cards and so can we.

  19. WriterDood Avatar

    I want one that says, “If you can read this, I need more coffee” or “Tag, you’re it” or how about “Urine Sample.”

    1. Bearman Avatar

      How about Urine Topeka.

      1. FJ Avatar

        Or, “Urine the Money.”

        1. Bearman Avatar

          even better

  20. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

    Now I will have to check the bottom of my cup every time before I put coffee in it.
    Maybe resturaunts and coffee shops could sell advertising on the bottom of their cups.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Just make sure not to check it after the cup is full.

    this is brilliant!
    I’ll try this sometime. Next year, perhaps!
