Some Baylor account with a large following posted Covid positive tests by Baylor and Gonzaga.

My idiot kids ran in screaming that there was something wrong with my car. I went into the garage and my son said it looked like someone slashed my tires. I took a look, and there was a printed picture of Slash on the tire. Hilarious. I'm just impressed they know who Slash is. At least my son, there is no way my daughter knows.

But will it make my lady friend look like a captive when she is about to use it?

You can only be young for awhile, but you can be immature forever.

Got my daughter today with the old “Saran wrap across the toilet” gag.

Well, but, see... Who is that joke on when she makes you clean up a #2?

We had an actual funny aprils fool joke in my neighborhood this morning.

A little back story: About 3 years ago, the local grocery store closed, and the space has been vacant ever since. There's been lots of rumors over that time about what would be going in there, with most people hoping for a Trader Joes. About 2 weeks ago, a public notice went out for a plan to replace the entire block with 8 stories of condos/townhouses, with some commercial space and underground parking.

Anyways, someone put this out in front of the vacant store overnight.

Gimme a break. Her bum feels the cling wrap right away. No poop or pee.

Do you then re-use it for the version where you put saran wrap between two door jams?

I liked this one a couple of years ago.

Clearly only a gibbering idiot would have been fooled, but still fun.

Where I draw the line with April Fool's is when people say something that is completely plausible and then when you engage they do the AF thing and it's like.. That's only kind of funny, maybe, to one party in that exchange. You're not fooling by saying, I dunno, some old celebrity just died.

Stupid.

Everyone knows NY drivers are the real scourge when it comes to that.

The worst I've ever experienced with that was in Washington (the state), but my sample size is kind of ridiculously small, so...

Throttling traffic by crawling in the left lane is a sport in Florida

But, overall, I’ll go to my grave believing the very worst drivers are in New Mexico. Take your life in your hands every time you get in a car.

Co-sign. In all my years of traveling, I never encountered worse drivers than I did in Albuquerque. Not really sure why that's the case.

I was really just responding to Uncle Phil and talking about NJ highways. I'm sure everyone but me can't drive for shit.

The road "test" to get your license is circling the entry road and three alley ways around the DMV. At least that what it was for me when I took my driver's test in ABQ (had let my license lapse as I had no car.) My buddy said he took the same "test" when he first took his test at 17.

I was able to memorize your license plate while driving.

Exactly. Courteous and safe.
