Spongebob's "Fools in April", an amazing April Fools episode, but does it explain why people don't like Luan's April Fools Episodes? Let's talk about that.

[Insert Good Mythical Morning intro here]

Fools in April is about Spongebob pranking the Bikini Bottom citizens on April Fools Day, much to Squidwards annoyance, so Squidward decides to prank SpongeBob in hopes it will get SpongeBob to quit pranking once and for all.

However, while all of SpongeBob's pranls were well received by everyone but Squidward, nobody but Squidward finds his prank funny.

What was Squidward's prank you may ask, it was a rope trap that when someone was caught in it would send them flying aroung the krusty krab hitting every thing in it's path, ending with the victim landing in the garbage can. After SpongeBob is caught in the trap, he is on the verge of tears, and you know what Squidward does? HE CALLS SPONGEBOB A LITTLE SAUSAGE, he roasts SpongeBob after humilatiing him!

Meanwhile SpongeBob kept his pranks (for the most part) simple, one example is only putting one ice cube on a drink when the man asked for a couple.

So what you can take from this episode, simple pranks are funny, don't take it too far.

Yeah, apparently Luan never watched SpongeBob like Lola and Lana did. Let's look at one of her pranks.

Lincoln enters the kitchen and slips in grease. See that on it's own might have been funny, but the joke goes on, there just had to be a boxing glove, and raccons, and the raccons had to attack. (What's the joke there anyway? Ha ha, Racoons?)

See, Luan fell victim to the Squidwards, the joke wasn't simple, it went too far and ruined any chance it had at being funny.

On the other side of the argument, Squidward's joke failed because it was trying to be malicious, not funny, and Luan was just trying to get a good laugh. (At least until the end of Fools Paradise, where she says that next year will be way worse, going out of her way to be cruel), but I'll leave it up to you people to decide.

Does Fools in April explain people not enjoying AFR and Fools Paradise? Yes No
