From USA Today, today!
"If you think an April Fool's joke would be funny today, you are wrong. This is not the time.
First off: April Fool’s jokes aren’t jokes. There is never a set up nor a payoff. They usually involve lying to people, and then making them feel stupid. They are not jokes, they are lies.
Which means they usually suck. And on this year, of all years: Do not do them.
It is the worst possible time. We are living in the second chapter of a post-apocalyptic novel right now. As a society we are collectively stressed, anxious, having weird nightmares, locked in our homes with an invisible enemy out there making our loved ones sick, or worse. That’s the healthy of us. Those suffering, well, their pain is significantly worse. We don’t need pranks right now. If ever there were a time NOT for pranks, this is it."
