The way I look at it, any holiday seems to be a reason for people to act like they have no sense. It isn't just this day. Halloween's really just as bad (I have no love for that holiday after someone threw rotten(?) eggs at my dad's car). Look at the pre-Christmas shopping madness. (Adults fighting over toys, and short tempers all around). New Years practically encourages drunkeness. Whatever meaning that should be applied to a holiday is lost in rampant childishness. (...is there any meaning behind April Fool's Day? :/)
