Way back a long time ago, when the Roman Catholic Church had their Holy Empire and pretty much ruled Western Europe. April 1st was the New Year's day. The pope decided to make a new calender in which New Year's would be January 1st. The reason we have April Fool's is, anybody who still celebrated New Year's on April 1st was the aim of all the practical jokes.

Celebrating holidays without even knowing the history of it is pretty lame.

Aprils fools day isn't a holiday. It's just some stupid day that is supposed to make kids happy.

I'm ignorant because I don't like to see kid's happy over a holiday? Screw this, I'm going Jewish.

I don't believe your story, I don't know why, and I don't think that April Fool's is a holiday, I'm not really sure though, I didn't do much today for April Fool's. I didn't even play a joke. I might play a joke on my friend later.

I really don't like you. You come in here, bashing Skuzzy for spelling like 3 things wrong, and now DB for spelling ignorant wrong? Who cares if you spell something wrong, as long as it readable, who gives a flying ****?
