愚人节到来 整盅大战揭幕

　　The day that gullible people dread and pranksters adore is on its way。

　　April Fools' Day begins in only a matter of hours and enthusiasts are already getting ready with some sneaky plans。

　　"I'm texting my mum after college & telling her I’m runningaway to marry some guy & watch her have a heart attackLOOL," oneTwitter user tweeted。

　　Another user tweeted that she wasn't going to be pulling any pranksthis year after one turned out to be a little too close to home lastyear。

　　"Last year my April fools joke was I was pregnant," one usertweeted. "The next day I found out I really was. NOT doing that thisyear!!"

　　While some of the pranks have become predictable like peopletelling their friends and families that they're pregnant or moving or injail, it's tradition for big companies like Google and Starbucks to tryto trick their users on the day with some of the more memorable pranksof the year。

　　In 2000, Google began the tradition by telling everyone to sit infront of their computer so that Google could scan their brainwaveactivity, among other things. And last year, Google convinced users thatthey had a plug-in that would provide audio feedback depending on whatusers do and what they browse。

　　Starbucks, meanwhile, jokingly introduced new sizes like including the 2-ounce Micra and 128-ounce Plenta。

　　And as pranksters are getting their ideas set, many are just planning on staying out of the fooling battle。

　　"I am dreading April fools day tomorrow! Last year the crew got mebad, cream and bustard in hair doesn't go well ." one Twitter userlamented。

　　让容易上当的人担心、让爱恶搞的人开心的愚人节又来到了。

　　愚人节即将来到，恶作剧狂热者已经准备好拿别人开涮了。

　　一位大学生推特用户写道：“我下课后给我妈妈发短信，告诉她我要和别人私奔结婚了，她吓得肯定快要心脏病发作了。哈哈。”

　　另一位用户则写道，自己今年不会再开玩笑了，因为去年自己把玩笑开成真的了。

　　她写道：“去年愚人节，我骗别人说自己怀孕了，结果第二天发现自己真的怀孕了。今年再也不能这么干了！”

　　有些愚人节玩笑是可以猜到的，比如骗亲友自己怀孕了、搬家了、甚至进监狱了。谷歌和星巴克等大公司也有愚人节恶作剧的传统，而且经常开些当年令人难忘的玩笑。

　　自2000年开始，谷歌公司在愚人节拿用户“开涮”，那一年，谷歌告诉每位用户只要坐在电脑前，公司就可以扫描到他们的脑电波活动，以及其它的活动。去年，谷歌公司又表示通过一款插件提供的音频反馈，就可以弄清楚用户正在用电脑做些什么，以及正在浏览的内容。

　　星巴克公司则假称推出“新杯型”，包括容量仅有2盎司的“迷你杯”和容量高达128盎司的“超大杯”。

　　有些人已经想好了要开什么玩笑，而另一些人则不打算加入愚人节整盅大战。

　　一位推特用户失望地写道：“我对明天的愚人节感到担心，去年我被他们整疯了，他们在我头上涂了奶油，还扔上来一只鸨鸟，糟糕透了。”
