No April Fools Day, Thank You Very Much
Apr. 1st, 2008 08:10 amYeah, I know it's an event some people live for and I know I'm going to be labelled a huge party-pooper --or worse-- but I can't stand April Fool's Day.
It's hard enough getting accurate information on anything. Deliberate misinformation is just annoying and wastes time & energy. I already have an extremely difficult time trusting other people; if I wanted to be regularly lied to, I'd tune into CSPAN. Throwing honesty, sincerity, accuracy and integrity out the window even one day per year diminishes their value, IMHO, and these are already too rare.
