Reply to comment by Guttermouth11111 in LPT: Since April 1st is coming up. A good tip to live by is that everyone should be able to laugh at your prank at the end. If everyone ends up laughing at the person getting pranked, and they are just the punchline, chances are you're just being a jerk. Don't be a jerk. by moosepooo

That's on you tbh. You needed to say that you're aware of the fact that it's April Fools, but that it's true and then follow up the next day with another post. Or even better, just wait a day so that they don't think it's the long con.

I said “Happy April Fools Day. I’m pregnant.” I didn’t want any huge deal announcement thing so it was a fun gag when people commented on the original post that it was a weak joke. I enjoyed it a lot.
