april fools day

Ah, April Fool's. That one day of the year the when some the world's least funny people unite over a love of bad jokes and ridiculous fibs. 

Sure, we loved the chaos it cause when we were children – after all, what seven-year-old doesn't get a kick out of telling their mother they put bleach in the washing machine – but as we grow up, the mischievous air around the first day of April is replaced by copious amounts of eye-rolling and sighing. 

At the end of the day, it's all a bit of fun, and perhaps we're just too old and cynical to see the pint in any of it, but after a quick scroll through Twitter, it's safe to say we're not the only ones who feel this way. 

Here's some of our favourite anti-April Fool's tweets so far. 

1.  … yay! 

2. It's the best way.

3. Ruining it for everyone. 

4. Just the tip of the iceberg tbh. 

5. We'll all get caught out sooner or later.

6. He's got a point. 

7. It's honestly not even worth it.

8. Let's just do away with the old tradition altogether

Nearly every brand, network and company played April Fool's pranks yesterday, but we have to say that Snapchat was one of our faves.

It was a subtle one, but a gas one nonetheless.

Snapchat played a joke on the photo-sharing site by adding an Instagram filter to its options.

And the funniest thing about it is at the end of the filter, it's liked by 'my_mom and 2 others'.

Slagging Instagram because mams only use it?! Harsh.

Even though April Fool's Day is over, we're hoping Instagram has a comeback.

Happy April Fools Day everyone. And by 'happy,' we of course mean 'a bit stressful,' as you try to wade through all the potentially false stories on your Twitter feed today.

Here are a few of the ones that nearly got us (we said nearly, people)…

1. Professor Green is changing his name

2. Woman's Way is getting a sister (brother?) publication

3. As is Loose Women

4. Tom Fletcher's toddler son Buzz is set to be a rock n' roll superstar

5. Lyons' Tea and HB are teaming up

*vomits*

6. Four Star Pizza are training in new "semi-feral" pizza delivery horses

7. The Aran Islands are getting a new addition

8. H&M's new collaboration is a change from Balmain

And it only includes Mark's signature grey t-shits and jeans:

9. 'Starting tonight, nightclubbers will be able to tuck into a Smokey Bacon Burger without ever leaving the dance floor…'

And a special mention has to go to #10, Google's Mic Drop feature, which caused something of a catastrophe on Gmail this morning.

The best way to anger Gmal users? Add a second "send" button that automatically sends a Mic Drop GIF to whoever you're emailing, and then MUTES the conversation so you don't receive any replies.

Honestly Google, what were you thinking?

Hopefully we're done with all of this madness until next year.

Lululemon promoted a new product yesterday called ‘spray on yoga pants’ joining in on the April Fool Day’s stunts! In what was clearly a joke, it was a more serious nod to an actual product they released where the pants were see-through and resulted in the CEO’s exit from the company.
