April Fools Day Technique #1 - The Next Day
This is a little technique I call The Next Day. April Fools day is such a badass holiday, hell its right up there with Fourth of July when you get to spend all day blowing shit up and boobie trapping everything with flammable fireworks. The only problem with April Fools is that everyone is expecting it. So you got to pull all your good jokes the NEXT day when people are more likely to fall for them. Muhahaha. Com’n this is a thinking outside of the box site right? What did you expect?
So for those of you who called Charlie’s Gay Bar hoping to get in on me and Jon’s podcast, much appreciated! Bonus points if you followed through and made “heavy breathing noises.” Haha. Kudos.
For those of you who are now faced with the dilemma of having to face your wives after they find the phone bill and realize you made a long distance call to a gay bar. Don’t worry I got your back! I wrote this quick utility that will automatically write and print an apology letter for you to use in your defense. So when she’s yelling and screaming and trying to take legal custody of the kids just fill out this quick form, print it off and hand it to her. Everything will be “hunky dory”
I do it cus I luv ya,
-Eli
Eli,
How come you are now signing your posts “-aojon”?
Pete
Very nice. I would say that I didn’t fall for it because I didn’t call in, but I would have had it been convenient.
Dearest Wife,
I understand you are looking at the phone bill right now and may be upset by the fact that I made a long distance phone call to a gay bar recently. I would like to explain myself. There is this rough trick named Eli. He has been blatantly seducing me with lascivious banter over on his blog called “cock gobbler SEO”. I am in counseling and psychotherapy trying to break my addiction to rough, sweaty man love, but last night I regressed. I apologize. I hope you will continue to stand by me and support me as I try to ’straighten’ my life out. I can assure you that despite the fact that I fantasize about you having a penis, I still love the boobies and the Cha-Cha. Maybe tomorrow we can goto church together so I can pray the gay away.
Love,
Rob
PS. Eli, you are fucking bastard. LOL.
I acutally thought you were going to give us some tips. What was the point of this… to waste money, time and trust?
I would think the purpose would be to remind people to unplug and get some enjoyment out of life. Take a break have some fun and unwind. The last thing you want to do is overwork yourself and then suffer a long “burnout” period.
“I would think the purpose would be to remind people to unplug and get some enjoyment out of life.”
There is the point.
I called from a very loud pool hall, the person answering did not seem happy! Had I heard how he answered the phone I would have had a little more fun with the call.
rofl, pray the gay away. you’ve been watching too much south park
I referred someone to your blog via the podcast link. Needless to say they think little of you at this point and aren’t going to be reading your blog. Too bad for them mostly, realizing it doesn’t matter to you if no one reads .. no wait, why are you doing this again?
Some of you are taking this way too seriously.
And to think I was sitting here thinking you were going the way of all those gay ass gurus. Was a bit disappointed in you Nice one Eli. Better top it next year though.
wow, I gotta say I’m kind of shocked at how harsh some people are taking this April fools day joke. Was it really that over the top? My apologize go out to anyone who linked to the podcast post thinking it was real, but for everyone else, expect the worst next year.
It should be noted that me and Jon are actually considering doing the podcast for real. We just got to work out some of the technical details. I’ll keep you guys in the loop.
All in all I think this years April fools day joke was a smashing success. Thanks to those who called in and can laugh about it. Jon and I didn’t actually even consider the fact that it was a long distance phone call until after the prank was done. If you called in and it caused you any financial damage you weren’t prepared for email me and let me know. I couldn’t imagine it would be very much, but I’m here to help you make money not loose it over some joke.
So you will pay for the 38 calls I made today too? Cool.
Have a boring day and thanks for the grin,
Mark
Yeah, I think Charlie’s was a nice touch…hell of a lot cooler than HP support dontcha think?
Looks like your blog will be ranking number one for Charlie’s Gay Bar pretty soon, roflmao.
Edit: Lol, consider it a little SEO contest between me and Jon. Who can rank for Charlies Gay Bar first?

I am very happy that I 1) didn’t make that phone call and 2) that I am not married to someone who did.
