Perfect pranks for celebrating Easter since it's on April Fools' Day
What do you get when pagan new year and a major Christian holiday land on the same calendar day? A weird-ass opportunity for pranks.
This year of our Lord 2018, we have been blessed cursed given the chance to knock out two holidays at once. April Fools' Day is hardly a holiday. It's grown into an obnoxious internet free-for-all, where brands and businesses try to prove they're fellow kids with hijinks and tomfoolery that tries way too hard. Easter is fine, but it does have terrible candy.
But if you're the sort of jerk who wants to antagonize people on the day meant to reaffirm their faith, then you'll need some seriously good pranks. They need to feel the full force of whatever joke you're going to pull on them.
So, here are a few Easter-related prank ideas to get you started and help you bum out your Christian friends on their special day.
The ol' grape as chocolate egg gag
This has made the rounds on the internet for years, but it still stands as a solid joke. Plus, you get to eat all the chocolate before you make the treats worse.
Fill a hollow chocolate bunny up with mustard
Just like it says. You take a hollow bunny, make a discrete little hole in the bottom under the foil, and fill it up with mustard.
Dye an uncooked egg
When you're dyeing all of your hard-boiled eggs, dye an uncooked one and put it among all the others. Woe to the person who wants to celebrate with a raw egg.
Soooo many Easter egg hunt pranks
Hold an egg hunt, promising treats, but just hide a bunch of empty plastic eggs
Fill plastic eggs with inappropriate things like condoms, dirt, or used Q-tips. (Please only do this with adults.)
Hide eggs in inappropriate places like the toilet tank, a pocket in someone's cargo shorts (to get back at them for wearing cargo shorts), among someone's forgotten collection of plastic grocery bags.
Just don't hide any eggs and send people out on a hunt for nothing
Cover an uncooked egg in chocolate
Hide Peeps. Just Peeps.
No one will expect to find peeps in their closet, their shoes, coffee jars, jewelry boxes, etc. This is one April Fools' Day that you can make last as long as you want, with the help of some stale, well-hidden marshmallow treats.
Tell your kids the truth
If you are truly a ruthless individual, this could also be the perfect chance to tell your kids the truth about Easter Bunny, revealing that you've been pranking them for years.
I have done neat stuff all over these United States from sailing lessons on the Puget Sound to motorcycle maintenance on the backroads of upstate New York. My professional experience extends from newspaper reporting in the mountains of Eastern Oregon to fixing espresso machines throughout Kentucky. I also have kept a cat alive for 10 years.
