Question, April 2: Would either of these have been good prank Questions for yesterday: “Do you agree with the Pope’s Decision to cancel Easter?” “Was the Easter Bunny justified in Excommunicating the Pope for banning April Fools Day?”

 

I like the second. It is more obviously satirical (to avoid the grumps of not-fun people). COMBO BREAKER!

Meh.  I probably wouldn't have bothered responding to either.

I don't believe either of these are good prank questions.  The first might have tripped people up if they're not familiar with the holiday, but the question runs the risk of being offensive or reinforcing negative sentiment.  The second is just silly.

 

I believe a prank question should really be mostly believable by the person hearing it, which tends to rule out most April Fools-related questions or antics.

I can't top @Crowley's answer so I'll just leave it at that.

Since we stayed in a lot aside from dinner in an Asian restaurant, no, not really.

We have a bunny visitor from a next door neighbor (there is a hole in the fence, that she comes through). So we get "Easter" decos all the time ::D:. Thou the bunny sometimes does strange things. She is a weird one...

Nope, although I didn't really go out much. 

 

Was kinda funny seeing the Easter bunny be escorted to the bathroom at Ikea though.

Nope.  TBH I was barely cognizant that Easter was this past weekend.  Went out for dinner to a newish restaraunt downtown on Friday night and they didn't have anything "Easterish" up.  Went to Taco Bell for dinner on Saturday night becuase I didn't feel like cooking, and well...it was a Taco Bell.  Sunday I went to Lowe's for gardening stuff, and I don't normally pay much attention to the decor there, so if they did I didn't notice it.  That was the extent of my ventures outside my home for the whole weekend.

A guy working at Trader Joe's was wearing bunny ears and a bowtie in the vegetable section.

 I'd completely forgotten it was Easter until I tried to go do some shopping late Sunday afternoon and the entire world was closed.

As I spent minimal time away from the house yesterday, I did not. Will be grocery shopping later, so I suppose it's still possible....

I can actually answer this one. No.

      The year is halfway over! What do you want to achieve this month?
       
      Here's my list:
       
      - Get blog going again.
      - Finish editing photos from last November >.<
      - Paint Bones Sphinx (by August 4).
      - Figure out how many other projects I have to do (that aren't already on the table) and give them time lines.
      - Figure out a giveaway for 1000 followers on IG.

      The obligatory rulze posting:
       
      1. Every day, or so (unless I am out or ill or something) I will post a question.
      1.5. Should I be unable to post a question for the day a crack team of deputy quisitors, former quisitors, and random forum members are all chomping at the bit to step in and take my place... 
      2. In theory there is a 24 hour span to answer that question before the next question is posted.
      2.5. (Rule 2 is the most frequently ignored rule.)
      3. Questions are going to be posted between 6AM and 8AM EST
      4. Everyone is encouraged to suggest future questions to be posted via PM to me. 
      5. You do not have to answer every question to play...
      6. If a question is TMI or N/A simply wait for the next question.. ..or post that you decline to answer (clues regarding why are always fun).
      7. Weekend questions may take the form of two or three day challenges, often starting on Fridays.
       
      I'm going to go walk the dogs, and then post the first question of the month...
