Basically, I was browsing Reddit of hilarious stories. Then this generally "kind of funny" story from the 7th grade in which I experienced (IMO I thought was funny) came to my mind. so I just wanted to share it to you all.
In 7th grade, I was a pretty shy, but also a very smart guy. My behavior says otherwise. Never got into trouble or anything. It wasn't until when CPS eventually opened a GMAIL service, but for school purposes. Nevertheless, many just used it to chat with their friends at school. On April 1st, I wanted to send this big joke to everyone. I got on the computer and snagged a picture of sanic -->

I sent it to my friends and they thought it was awesome. I then proceeded to send it to the entire school system: teachers, officers, departments, and staff. It wasn't until specials later that day in which I was called down to the office to speak to the principle. She was female, late 20s. Went to her office and she was PISSED. She shut the door and I knew I was done for. I sat in the chair across the table and she proceeded to grab about 20 copies of papers with names. It wasn't just any names of people; it was names of EVERY single person I sent the email to (departments included). I couldn't tell if I was in CSI being interrogated, but I was legit terrified of my stupid antics that caused me this.
She then started to put the papers on the table, after she was finished, she sat down and looked me in the eye. She asked for why I did this and I started to sweat badly (I sweat and itch when I'm nervous). I murmured words and she must've gotten sick of it and gave me a sheet of paper to write it down on. I got lucky and I managed to pull the lies onto that paper and said it was an accident. She believed me fortunately and I got away with no consequences. Well, yeah, I did get punished. I couldn't access my email for a week. Yeah, I did feel guilty, but I was not going to get suspended over a lighthearted email joke. Once I went back to class, told my friends about it.
EDIT: BLF hates memes which is understandable.
Tl;dr: Not so smart, nice guy me wanted to make an April Fools joke, sent picture of sanic in email to entire CPS district, got in trouble, lied and dodged a suspension.
