Most people don't like April Fool's Day because they get a joke played on them that makes them look silly or makes them angry. This April Fools joke is a positive one, and a happy one. This waitress loves to help people, she also overcame an eating disorder and teaches Yoga.

Okay - so it's an April Fool's Day joke.  But - it's a good one and, it's a superb time waster!

Did you fall for it?  The day before April Fool's Day - social media was abuzz with stories and talk about a new coffee variety that Caribou Coffee was getting ready to debut on April 1.

It is a long-standing joke that free food never lasts very long at the radio station. The sad thing is, even if it isn't very good food, it vanishes fast. Today, Jeanne from our sister station pranked the staff in the building with mayonnaise-filled donuts. Here are the shocking results.

Every year on April 1st, office water coolers are spiked with white wine and computer mouses are glued to desks. Every year on college campuses, half empty buckets of water are placed on the top of dorm room doors and passed out bros are covered with marker ink. And throughout the world, the sound of chuckling and cackling can be heard echoing across its borders.
