Rejected petition Extend April Fool's Day hours past midday

Are you sick of pedants waving their hands on their nose at you telling you that you're the April Fool just because your prank was executed after midday?

More details

April Fool's Day comes just once a year, and if people want to celebrate it for the whole day, they should not be limited to the April Fool's Pranking Hours from 00:00 to 12:00, which are frankly insufficient in an age where people can and will sleep past 12 since not everyone needs to be up at dawn to tend their crops any more. Or who simply are working during the day doing actual work and can't get their prank on until after 5pm.
