  april fools fools
Frankly, I'm sick of all this April Fools Day crap. The way I see it, April Fools Day is the one day of the year that people with no sense of humor try to be funny. And the results ain't pretty. For those of us who act like fools on the other 364 days a year, it just seems pretty sad for these poor suckers who can't be funny to save their lives.

The April Fools Day people are basically like the "C & E Christians." You know these people, the ones who go to church twice a year, on Christmas and Easter. For them, this is all the spirituality they feel is necessary in their lives. The rest of the year, they are just like all the non-Christians, but on Christmas and Easter, look out, they's church-going, Godly folks. Amen!

Well, it's just the same for the April Fools People. They have no humor in their lives throughout the year, then all of a sudden, they think they can just be funny for one day. People, it just doesn't work that way. Humor, like Christianity, is something you need to work at, practice, nurture. You can't just decide that one day out of the year you can be funny. Just like you can't just be a Christian for one day of the year. You just end up looking pathetic and sad. You report another team's performance numbers inaccurately and think it's the most hilarious thing to happen since you saw that monkey who plays the cymbals.

Here's the bottom line: you need to practice humor in your daily lives. Study it, live it, read it, be it. Get it here or get it somewhere else. Just get humor. Your colleagues will thank you for it.
