** In "Job Insecurity," Lincoln was allowed to attend the "Take Your Kids To Work Day." The holiday has been unisex since 2003.



* NightmareFuel: If you thought "April Fools Rules" was bad, "Fool's Paradise" is practically a G-rated '''''horror movie'''''. Indeed, let's take a look at each prank Luan does in that episode:
** After Luan is dropped off at a camp during April Fools Day weekend, Vanzilla mysteriously breaks down, forcing the Louds to stay at a roadside hotel - that is, a roadside hotel Luan boobytrapped with pranks that pick off the family one by one.
** Lisa is taken out by [[MurphysBed a bed that shuts upward]]. Although PlayedForLaughs (she survives the encounter), Murphy beds have been known to ''kill'' adults; Lisa is '''''4!'''''
** The first prank outside the motel has Luna fall in a giant vat of gelatin. If Luna hadn’t gotten out of the gelatin in time, she definitely would have suffocated.
** Leni gets launched over a dozen feet in the air and many yards over before getting stuck to the motel sign. If Luan's calculations had been even slightly off, then at the very best, Leni would have several shattered bones, and at worst, she'd be [[{{Gorn}} a red and seafoam smear on the parking lot]]. Hell, slamming into the sign could've done a number on her, since it's NotTheFallThatKillsYou... Good thing this is a cartoon, so her spine didn't even crack.
** [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Also, Lola gets sprayed by a]] SmellySkunk.
** The next prank involves an attempt at OpenSaysMe landing Lana in a pit of rhubarb pies; if this just sounds annoying and mildly disabling, '''[[PlotAllergy Lana is allergic to rhubarb!]]''' And it's fairly unlikely that the family has epi-pens handy. Lana could easily have ended up in critical condition, but given that she isn't even scared, just annoyed, it's most likely that her allergic reaction isn't all that severe.
** Lori tries to pull a ScrewThisImOuttaHere by hightailing it to Vanzilla, only to get hit by its airbag, causing her to lose her eyebrows!
** [[FromBadToWorse Worse yet,]] her prank on Lucy is dumping a bucket of bleach on the poor girl. Bleach is a very caustic chemical, which can cause severe burns, and damage to the eyes, lungs and even the entire ''nervous system''. She's lucky she just got turned all white instead.
** Rita's trap actively involved using an at-risk Lily as bait, requiring her to save her infant daughter from a scenario that would very likely kill the baby with scant seconds worth of leeway. In other words, Luan deliberately [[AdultFear put Lily in mortal peril]] just to force her family members to fall prey to the trap instead.
** After that, Lynn Jr. gets attacked by a [[ManiacMonkeys maniac monkey]] which Luan used to switch out Lily.
** Before he and Lincoln hide in the closet, Mr. Loud says "the roof is next". [[NothingIsScarier Think about that for a minute]].
** And the kicker? Mr. Loud was (reluctantly) in on it, because Luan wanted an inside man ''and'' promised him a prank-free decade in exchange.
** And then you get the ending: Luan threatens an even ''worse'' April Fools Day next year... '''especially''' for Mr. Loud.

** The next prank involves an attempt at OpenSaysMe landing Lana in a pit of rhubarb pies; if this just sounds annoying and mildly disabling, '''[[PlotAllergy Lana is allergic to rhubarb!]]''' And with Vanzilla broken down, it's entirely possible that had she had a full-blown attack, she could have ''died'' since it's fairly unlikely that the family had epi-pens handy. Of course, given that Lana wasn't even scared, just annoyed, she's just lucky her allergy isn't all that severe.
