Scotchy Scotch Scotch!
we are all dead its true
Also, the only April Fools hijinkery around here is someone figured out how to get into the automatic paper towel dispensers and has reset each "wave" to give 1 inch of towel and wait ten seconds for the next.
People are drying their hands (unsuccessfully) with toilet paper.
My wife and I have been house-hunting and found the house of our dreams. We were planning on submitting an offer this afternoon. So this morning I faked a call from our agent saying it had been sold, and under asking price at that!
"April Fool's, hon! That wasn't our agent at all! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
Then we called our agent to set up a meeting and make an offer and found out the house had sold.
I drove to my buddy's house today, jimmied open his car door, rolled down his window (old style manual crank), and stole the change out of his ashtray. Then I dumped the box of broken glass I brought all over his front seat.
He is currently driving around with his window rolled down, covered in plastic and tape.

Boston Pizza announced this today.
must say, i will be a tad pissed off if it is just a joke.
one does not simply joke about pizza, nor burgers, nor the combination thereof

A Pizza Burger does not sound great to me but then looking at the picture it looks delicious.
Really sorry to hear that man, but to tell the truth, I laughed my ass of reading your story. Thanks for sharing.
UPDATE:
We're getting the house after all. I had left out some key elements of the story because they didn't seem relevant but here's how it actually went down:
- We made an offer, expecting a lengthy negotiation
- I made April Fool's joke
- Got a call from agent, who said someone made a better offer, and assumed our offer had been rejected
- Found out late yesterday that before the better offer came along, the seller had already given us a counter-offer, which means we have dibs on the house until 8pm tonight
So we're off the to finalize the deal! Woohoo! It's a little bit pricier than we'd hoped, as we had planned to negotiate it down another 10k or so. But if we don't take the current offer, we'll be stuck in a bidding war, which would drive the price up. I imagine the seller is currently kicking themselves and hoping we don't accept.
Meeting in 10 minutes, so I'm off! Homeownership, here I come!
