April Fools, I'm not a fan of you and your sneakery ways. Hidden-camera shows, practical jokes, etc. make me super nervous. I can't watch anything where people are being purposefully tricked. It makes me so anxious for them. Wikipedia says that April Fool's purpose is to embarrass the gullible. That's so mean, huh?! However, here are some funny ones:

Left Handed Whoppers: In 1998, Burger King ran an ad in USA Today, saying that people could get a Whopper for left-handed people whose condiments were designed to drip out of the right side. Not only did customers order the new burgers, but some specifically requested the "old", right-handed burger.

Smell o Vision: In 1965, the BBC purported to conduct a trial of a new technology allowing the transmission of odor over the airwaves to all viewers. Many viewers reportedly contacted the BBC to report the trial's success. In 2007, the BBC website repeated an online version of the hoax.
