Hi. Today is April 1st, 2021 which is April Fools' Day. Happy April Fool's Day 2021!

Doing anything special for the holiday? Pulling any pranks on anyone?

I don't participate, celebrate and/or observe April Fools' Day and I don't know anyone who does. I have never pulled any pranks on anyone.

I am just curious. Please help. Thank you.

@JGoldman10,

How long has it been a holiday over there?

It’s not a holiday over here.

Is this your April Fool, calling a day a holiday when it’s not?

I plan on breathing for the holiday.

The day is a big deal here in the Boston area. Not only do schools and many businesses close, today is the one day that public nudity is allowed.

It is a little weird with the pandemic; seeing people walking around in nothing but tennis shoes... and face masks.

@JGoldman10,

I didn't know it was a holiday either.

And it was yesterday.

We go and visit the shrine of St Hedwig of Drusbek.
He was a martyr bcause he would not accept the golden calf as a god.

It used to be a holiday for a2k users. Not in recent years though.

Almost every year, a2k [the admins or programmers] does something weird with the formatting of the site. I'm assuming they didn't do anything this year (like last year as well).

I am assuming it wasn't a big deal this year and last because it was overshadowed by the Covid-19 pandemic and crisis. Am I correct?

Public nudity. Seriously? Are minors allowed out in public when people are walking around nude?

Kids and teens do not need to be subject to that.

Who decided public nudity was acceptable?

@izzythepush,

I asked if people did anything special for the holiday, and if they pulled any pranks on anyone.

This was a polling question.

@tsarstepan,

Yes, probably because the holiday was overshadowed this year and last because by the Covid-19 pandemic and crisis.

Dealing with the pandemic and crisis is/was FAR MORE IMPORTANT than celebrating, observing and/or participating in a silly holiday.

No it’s not. There’s no poll.

When there’s a poll, say on watching a tv show there’s something to click on, and the results are posted there and then.

Eg. 85 responses, 50% watched the show regularly, 30% occasionally and 20% have never seen it.

That’s what a poll looks like, and there isn’t one here. Instead there is a request for anecdotes.

For April Fool’s Day you have decided to show you don’t know the meaning of the words poll and holiday and you have fallen for the most obvious April Fool joke of all from Max.

All in all quite a day.

People go naked in public for Mardi Gras. I thought Max was serious.

In Boston?

Balmy, tropical Boston?

It was the most obvious April Fool I have ever seen. I didn’t think anyone would fall for it.

They have Mardi Gras every year in New Orleans. What does that have to do with Boston?

@JGoldman10,

Max was talking about Boston.

You were the one to bring up New Orleans and Mardi Gras.

Max was joking about going naked in Boston.

You’ve got the memory of a goldfish.
