    Being a bit of a "card" I have been plotting for a few years to go to work on April Fools wearing a syrup. You have to keep a straight face. When people snigger, pick them up on it, look hurt, make them apologise. Keep this up until the stroke of midday then visibly toss it in the bin and make out like nothing happened.

    Keep forgetting though

    I've worked with a few rug wearers and they've always looked absurd.
    I thought that was some kind of newsletter. Something professional looking, anyway. That whole article was really badly written actually.

    It's only funny if it is screamingly obvious it's a syrup.

    But yes, I have, and the wearer wasn't a bloke.

    Ouch. Why doesn't anything get edited anymore?

    Surely looking bald, or anything, would be preferable?

    my dad used to -- it was dead obvious but everyone pretend not to notice

    when he retired he took it off and everybody had to pretend to be suprised.


    a completely vain waste of time and money
