Apr 1 2024 - April Fool's All Year

 

It makes me wonder why April Fool's is only one day.  It could be a surprise all year long with some special trigger.  Because big brands and companies would love to have such great publicity all year long.  I am surprised they haven't figured out a way to do this.  Or maybe once a year is expensive enough for the tricks that they invent.

Here are the examples from USA Today: 

7-Eleven has hinted at a possible prank product: In addition to new Lemon Lime, Green Apple and Sweet Orange flavored 7-Select sparkling waters, out now with partner Miracle Seltzer, there's a fourth flavor coming April 1: Big Bite Hot Dog. Will Big Bite Hot Dog sparkling water be sold? Its availability will be announced April 1. However, some reporters were sent a can of the drink. USA TODAY can confirm that it definitely smells like hot dog water and has a smoky aftertaste.

Krispy Kreme:A special doughnut deal for April Fools' Day - you have to click on the link so we'll leave this one for another time.

Da da decoder - Infant equipment site BabyQuip has its own language-bridging lark: the “Baby Translator” app, to decode your baby's secret language.

An AI-powered plush doll - Custom stuffed animal maker Budsies already makes selfie plush dolls with a built-in voice recorder. It's April Fools' spoof: Artificial intelligence-enabled dolls that "come programmed to learn everything about you and to become your new best friend."

There's a lot of these at the site HERE.  

I  enjoyed today's picture ion the day n the Globe and Mail.  It showed reporters who joked Jack Layton and his white moustache by all wearing white paper moustaches. 

These little species tulips were at the Royal Botanical Gardens rock garden back when it was primarily a tulip festival, and then dormant all summer.  Now it is an all-year garden of delight.  I do miss the tulip festival.
