April fools is almost upon us again…
Damn time flies. I love april fools. Its the one time a year you get permission to show how creative you are and if it doesn’t work out you can throw April fools under the bus.
Its like when you were in high school and you have your best friend ask some girl on a date for you and when she says no you say, “Oh just joking”. Or maybe that was just me… anyway…
Last year my April fools day joke post was a spoof of LOST saying I was moving to portland. Its one of the most visited posts on all of ShoeMoney.com and also one of the biggest influx of RSS subscribers to the ShoeMoney Newsletter.
What are we going to do this year? Well you will have to wait 30 days to see

God last year was so ridiculous. I remember seeing that post and being like ‘People can’t honestly believe this…’ and it had like 50+ replies of people being like ‘OMG goodbye!’ haha. It was even funnier when you announced all the responses by people trying to call you out ‘HE IS PLAYING A JOKE’ and how you just disapproved all of them lol.
Oh, here is a better April Fools joke for you, post another bogus photo shopped pic of you holding up a big pay day check. It might give you another several yaers of mileage out of it on your blog knowing all these morons who read your crap. LMAO
god if you are going to be an anonymous weasel at least spell your fake persona name right.
Why do you even spend/waste your time to come here and read stuff when you think its fake?
A teacher somewhere gave you the ability to read JasonManchrian. It’s a shame you didn’t put that ability to greater use before posting that ridiculous comment. Take a look in the mirror, slap yourself round the kisser several times, then read everything on this site, and anything else connected to Shoemoney, then when you realise how wrong you are, have the balls to come back and apologise then do something positive with your life, and sign up for the Shoemoney system!
Last year was EASY to figure out. The odd thing about last year was the number of comments that you were able to filter out. I know one of mine got through because I didn’t use one of your keywords.
Can’t wait to see what you have planned.
Ya … Im going to do a post in the next couple days about the keys to a successful april fools day blog post.
This year he’s going to tell us the whole Shoemoney System was an elaborate hoax to get my eBay information…
I must have missed you last April fools joke, so I’m checking it out now. Can’t wait to see what you got lined up for this year!
Plenty of time to come up with something good.
Your last one is such a classic. Damn Hanso Foundation. Really can’t wait to see if you can top it.
Hop in a fat suit and just say you’ve been photo shopping the pictures this whole time making yourself skinny…
I remember that, that was the first time I read your blog, actually. (someone talked about it on a Lost forum)
Now that you told us, we will be careful.
LOLs. I would definitely wait for that man. I have my own planned since last year for my blog readers as well.
I think I actually have an idea for this year. Be my first blog April fool joke if I do it. Just have to see if I can put it together.
Should 301 your site for the day to freak everyone out. Since you’re not too worried about SEO for this site it would be pretty funny!
Looking forward to seeing what you’ve got in store this year……and feverishly doing my own scheming…..
Hhhhmmm good old April’s Fool day. I think I’ll learn How To Treat Anxiety
I’ve just started reading your blog, so it’s too bad I missed out on your April fool’s joke. Just being practical though, wouldn’t an April fool’s joke this year be a little obvious? You had gotten a lot of hits and RSS subscribers because of last year’s joke, but this time maybe not a lot of people will buy the joke. Just my thought.
I wish the April Fool’s joke would come on any day in April so everyone would be surprised.
Looks like April fools is a profitable “holiday”. That’s funny that that post was the most popular one. Don’t move to Portland! If you are moving to the pacific northwest, I’d say move to Seattle.
