Now that the televisions have been rounded up and “TV Santa Claus,” as the neighbors so cleverly dubbed the prankster, has been deemed harmless, we have a few questions — ten, actually.

1. Let’s start broad. Why’d you do it?
2. Do you work alone? Police believe there are at least two of you.
3. Why the old clunkers? The cost of flat-screens has come down.
4. Is this a statement against cord cutting and streaming?
5. Can you tell us about your inspiration? As one homeowner said, “It was very Twilight Zone.”
6. How do you feel about the nickname you’ve been given: TV Santa Claus?
7. Were you involved in the similar shenanigans last year, when TVs appeared on doorsteps in Glen Allen, Virginia?
8. Is this a senior prank or a way to impress your new college friends?
9. Did you intend to bring a flicker of joy to news typically dominated by doom?
10. Will we see you again?

Okay, I know we said ten questions, but on behalf of a Twitter user, we have to ask: are those your eggs?

There’s certainly evidence to back up those claims. Google had to apologize after its Mic Drop gag created very real havoc in Gmail, for example. And strictly speaking, it’s difficult for these stunts to elicit much more than a chuckle. Companies can’t afford to create genuine confusion for customers, so they frequently play it safe lest a gag blow up in their faces.

Microsoft wouldn’t be the only tech firm refusing to participate in April Fools. Apple was born on April 1st and it doesn’t do anything. However, it might start a trend that sees more companies backing away from the tradition in favor of business as usual.
