Reply to LPT: After a good haircut, take a photo of your hair to show to the barber next time you go, it makes life much easier for them and for you. This especially helps if you're going to a new barber for the first time. by bongingnaut
It's fine, whatever I ask for ends up with me getting a buzz cut anyway

I agree.
Evil people can't be reasoned with.
If a person inflicts harm for fun, you can't change their mind. Adults are stubborn.

Everyone including the person being pranked should be laughing at the end.

I did that one at work a few years ago.
I got the head of IT to fall for it. "Hey, look at the new feature on the printer. I think [name of other IT guy] made it happen."

PTSD person here. If you don't already have "tools" you can use to help feel in control, "the 5-4-3-2-1 exercise" will calm you down quickly. You can also go for a walk for around 10 minutes in the sun within a couple of hours first thing in the morning -- in addition to telling your melatonin clock exactly when to start its countdown, it proves to your limbic system that you are completely safe as there is no perceivable danger impeding you from an outdoor stroll.

Reply to comment by PM_ME_MAS_ORO in LPT: when ordering on Amazon, if given the option, always select "subscription" for sizable discount. by SerenityNowWow
The standard subscription discount is 5-15% (depending on total subscriptions), but there are quite a few of promos recently for 15-35% off your FIRST subscription. It might not be as prevalent as OP is implying, but they aren’t uncommon.

Epic. Taking notes for my six yo. This is his favorite holiday, but he thinks wonderful surprises count, too.

My birthday is also on April fools and this is so common it is unbelievable. People think they can call it a joke and assume you are naive enough to believe them.
