It's around that time of the year where everyone starts playing pranks on each other, big or small. Some get their co-workers, some get their friends, some get their family members, and some are even bold enough to get random strangers. Some pranks are lowkey while some are so over the top it takes more than a second's thought to plan. Some people even get annoying with it, kind of like the April Fools episode of Spongebob Squarepants. There is definitely a list of cliché, go-to April Fools Day jokes that everyone knows, like the "Your shoe's untied" or the toothpaste in an Oreo. Perhaps this year, though, you could steal from this list of Jim's pranks on Dwight.

1. Imitate a Co-Worker or Friend 

2. Put Small Items in Jell-O

3. Have someone pretend to be you

4. Send a fax or e-mail to them from their future self

5. Move all of their stuff into another room

6. Replace their desk with wrapped cardboard

7. Stage a crime scene

8. Convince someone you have telekinetic powers

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
