April Fools' Day is April Fools' Day. Families, neighbors and businesses often use the day for fun and mischief. At AG, we have collected four funny stories from the day.
Call this number
– How have you fooled people on April Fools' Day?
– Peter fooled his many older sisters. He asked them to call a number and wrote to all of them to call it. They ended up calling the same person, who was very confused, Paninnguaq Miunge tells AG.
How did his older sisters react?
– Some laughed, while others called him Piitaaq and were a little annoyed, says Paninnguaq Miunge.
Pilersuisoq in Qaanaaq “closed” for Easter
– When I was looking at my photos, I got the idea to edit one of them with ChatGPT (artificial intelligence, ed.). I chose a photo of Pilersuisoq in Qaanaaq’s opening hours for Easter and changed it to say it was closed, Aqattannguaq Qaerngaaq, a resident of Qaanaaq, told AG.
It said the store would be closed for five days in a row. I posted the photo on my Facebook page so that only my followers could see it. But people started sharing it on the Facebook page “Qaanaaq’s bulletin board”.
People reacted differently, and some believed it so much that they thought the employees at Pilersuisoq were off all Easter – yes, even on weekdays.
It was also related to the fact that Pilersuisoq had just ended their status.
When the reactions became stronger, and some even started talking about firing the grocer, I chose to say that the picture was edited with ChatGPT and that it was all an April Fool's joke. I had otherwise intended to reveal the truth only the next day, says Aqattannguaq Qaerngaaq with a laugh.

In addition, they write that there will be entertainment in the store every Friday.
