Declaration of Extended Galactic Antics

"Whereas, April Fools Day is a joyous occasion and a glorious holiday, and,

"Whereas, the British custom of concluding all pranks before noon is repressive in the extreme and desecrates the holiday, and,

"Whereas, the Brits generally need to lighten up,

"Therefore, be it resolved that perpetually hereafter April Fools Day shall be celebrated for a 24 hour period throughout the entire galaxy."

So there. Don't say I didn't warn you.
