I propose we make 1st of April into April's Sincerity Day. No scams, falsehoods, fake news, pranks or irony the whole day. The rest of the year is already filled with it and we already don't believe most of what we hear. On 1st of April this year, we celebrate speaking with frankness and truthfulness, being sincere and direct, and practice the antidote to the widespread misbelief and apathy towards what we say. We'll try treating each other like something else than fools.

#AprilsSincerityDay could need a better name perhaps

@malte I like this idea. I've never liked practical jokes or pranks -- even more so now that we get very unpleasant surprises every freakin' day.

@malte @digitalsnow You know how pranks aren't supposed to be made after noon? At the very least the afternoon could be a time of rest and reconciliation. Maybe it'd set a trend of half-Days.
