Yes, I do look forward to April Fools\u2019 Day. I remember having been fooled by my friends in my childhood. I can recall one instance when I called all my friends over for a \u2018party\u2019. I sent them an invite with photographs of the arrangements only to have them come and find my door locked.<\/p>\n

Even though we are rational beings, we fool and get fooled all through the year. Thus, it\u2019s interesting to have a day set apart just to fool someone. Right from my school days, this day has always fascinated me and it brings a grim to my face every time I think of it. During school days, fooling a friend by saying \u2018teacher is calling\u2019 was a great achievement. Now as we grow older it\u2019s not just about fooling but also recollecting the silly things we did and laughing at ourselves.<\/p>\n Infancio Pires<\/strong>, teacher, Carambolim<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.8″ src=”http:\/\/www.navhindtimes.in\/kuriocity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Infancio-Pires-2.jpg” \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.8″ src=”http:\/\/www.navhindtimes.in\/kuriocity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Hari-Budke-2.jpg” \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″]<\/p>\n No, because for me it doesn\u2019t make a difference which day of the month it is. I think it shouldn\u2019t matter to others too because I do not understand the importance of fools day. Is one classifying people based on if they are fooled or not by pranks? As a fun activity it is okay but sometimes I\u2019ve seen people jeopardise others\u2019 lives for a prank so that they can prove that they\u2019re capable of fooling you. If April 1 is really a fool\u2019s day then I would love to celebrate it by spreading knowledge so fewer people are fooled every day.<\/p>\n Hari Budke<\/strong>, Vasco<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″]<\/p>\n I love April Fools\u2019 Day. It can be really good fun. I love playing tricks on people and I don\u2019t mind if people play tricks on me. It is one day in the entire year where one can be really silly and have a laugh, and it is okay. You have to be quite sensible for the other 364 days of the year, so I look forward to April 1. It\u2019s also the day when you can do weird stuff and get away with it. Though April Fools\u2019 Day is quite popular among youngsters, the older generation are no exception.<\/p>\n Siddhant Subhash Khandeparkar<\/strong>, Goa Engineering College, Ponda<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.8″ src=”http:\/\/www.navhindtimes.in\/kuriocity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Siddhant-Subhash-Khandeparkar-2.jpg” \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.8″ src=”http:\/\/www.navhindtimes.in\/kuriocity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Gayatri-Joshi-2.jpg” \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″]<\/p>\n Being the prankster that I am, I definitely look forward to April Fools\u2019 Day. It\u2019s always fun to prank a person, but it\u2019s a bigger achievement when he\/she has been fooled on April Fools\u2019 Day. Everyone is extra careful so as to not become the \u2018April Fool\u2019. You can either fool or get fooled. Though at the end of the day it\u2019s just fun and laughter and the pranks often make for hilarious stories which will be told over and over again.<\/p>\n Gayatri Joshi<\/strong>, Agnel Institute of Technology and Design, Assagao<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″]<\/p>\n I don\u2019t always look forward to the day unless I am in the mood to fool someone. And while doing do so I ensure I know the person very well so that my prank doesn\u2019t hurt the person. Finally, it\u2019s very important to take jokes positively and those who do so make the day wonderful.<\/p>\n Devesh Naik<\/strong>, Agnel Institute of Technology and Design, Assagao<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.8″ src=”http:\/\/www.navhindtimes.in\/kuriocity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Devesh-Naik-2.jpg” \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.8″ src=”http:\/\/www.navhindtimes.in\/kuriocity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Ninad-Tengse-2.jpg” \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″]<\/p>\n I do. I find it hilarious when I tell my friends a truth which I otherwise wouldn\u2019t have, and they pass it off as a lie or a prank. Hence, I take the opportunity to shoot my many confessions and let them be brushed away in plain sight. That won\u2019t work anymore after this though!<\/p>\n Ninad Tengse<\/strong>, National Institute of Technology Goa<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″]<\/p>\n I am for April Fools\u2019 Day if it is kept within limits. Having been pranked and made fun of is often rude and insulting to some people. However, it is also exciting and fun to use the innovative ideas and methods to prank people these days.

On a lighter note it\u2019s very enjoyable but on a serious note it can turn risky because emergencies could arise and one may think it is a prank which later leads to regret.
