Everyday Fool?

So today is April Fools Day. Everyone is pulling out their best tricks and jokes to try and fool their fellow friends, coworkers and loved ones. Some jokes are quite funny. Others, not so much. Nonetheless, I sit here and wonder why this day is needed anyway. Many of us are April Fools damn near every day. We fall for the same tricks and jokes everyday from the same people who try to deceive us. So, why on April Fool’s day do we put up a guard and look for someone to play a joke on us when we are getting tricked every other day of the year? If you ask me and even if you don’t, maybe we should keep that guard up for the rest of the year and maybe for the rest of your life. Stop falling for the same tom foolery and wise up. How is it every day this nword is going to break up with his girlfriend BUT today we don’t believe that lil wayne got out of jail for good behavior? Or how is it that girl is really interested but only calls when she wants to spend and not hers BUT today we don’t believe Oprah is engaged? All of these claims are equally bogus and we already know it. So, let’s let today be the last day for us to play the everyday fool since we actually have an excuse. Tomorrow we can start fresh.
