Bite me.

I can tell you from experience, in the US, after elementary school,  
it's not that bad. But we don't celebrate April Fools Day like Europe  
does, or India (it's a different holiday there - where people wear  
white clothes and other people toss paint onto them).

Now I can tell you that as the end of the Roman New Year celebration,  
it is the Veneralia (festival of Venus). This of course was stolen  
from the Greek festival, Aphrodite Callipygous.
