Strangetown Extras: April Fish!

[strangetomato]

Did you know that the practical joking element of April Fools Day was most likely started in France? In France (or French cultures, like in French Canada) the person being fooled is referred to as a poisson d'avril, or April fish. This originally had something to do with the zodiac, and the French traditionally celebrated April Fools Day by placing dead fish on the backs of their friends. (No, I'm not making this up!)

Fish fight!




Johnny: You're going down, Grunt!

Ripp: Ooooof!




Johnny: Oh, NICE! A direct hit!

Ripp: Owwww! Watch the face, Johnny!

Johnny: Fish in the face!




Ripp: I'll bet you'd fucking love that, huh, Johnny? A big face full of fish?

Johnny: Don't get it in my mouth! I'm a vegetarian!

Ripp: That doesn't count, John.




Johnny: Face your defeat, Ripp. You're no match for me.

Ripp: Yeah, you have all the fucking skills, Johnny. Nobody slings a fish around quite like you do.

Johnny: Good workout! Now I don't need to go for a jog.

Ripp: Why jog when you can play with giant fish?




Ripp: Another challenger, hey? You'll be sorry, Phi...

Ophelia: Oh, we'll see about that!

Ripp: *gets pummeled*




Ripp: You call that a fish slap?! You hit like a girl, Phi!

Ophelia: So do you!

Ripp: You'll pay for that remark!

Ophelia: Bring it on!




Ripp: It's easy to hit such a nice, round target!

Ophelia: Hey! Watch it!

Ripp: *thinking* Such a sweet, sweet target...




Ophelia: It's not THAT big!




Ripp: Nothing wrong with a little junk on the trunk, Phi. Nothing at all... *stares*

Ophelia: You're an April fool alright. Get your face out of there!

Ripp: This is my favourite day of the year. Fuckin' sweet...




Ophelia: You're in for it!

Ripp: Oh, that's right! Punish me.

Good Cod, this eels the deal! Ripp truly loves Ophelia with all his carp and sole.
*runs away really fast*

Why did you run? So I wouldn't laugh you to death? *snort* Too silly... but I love it! (And the "Good Cod" part reminds me of something I see all over the place in the homes of elderly Newfoundlanders - a little wall hanging that says, "In cod we trust".)

Ah, I always expect flung tomatoes when I bring out the truly bad puns. I love them, though. Part of it's because of my ESL status, but really I just can't resist a truly bad word pun. :D I mean. 'Orange you glad to see me' STILL cracks me up.

I'm just a sucker for puns too. :P No tomato slinging around here today, but I will send a fish your way!

*slings a salmon at you*

Oh, I see what kind of a scampi you are! :D
Haddock at you!
*happily smokes salmon meanwhile*

*snicker* Sort of like taking your lemons and making lemonade? That's the sensible thing to do when offered salmon, in my humble opinion (unless you're a vegetarian, like Johnny). That stuff is tasty.
