Pranks are fun. I like pranking. I can't be pranked, though. At least not online.

People who 'figure out' online pranks and make a point to point that out are the lamest sort of people. However, people who take it upon themselves to shame those who point it out during the prank itself may even be worse. It's almost the difference between a stupid person being stupid and a smart person being stupid. I know who I'd be more disappointed in.

Here's the way you react to online April Fool's jokes. If you are fooled, you laugh and say 'good job chum' and move on. If you figure it out then you play along or at least ignore it if you are not interested in having fun.
