Default Post all April Fool's Day jokes here...

Some people read this site at work and you wouldn't want them having a titty attack cause they just read

"SWEENY TODD coming to Blu in April"

or

"Star Wars Ultimate Edition announced"

or

"Spaced Invaders getting the Blu treatment"
By the way I have an inside source that claims this might actually be in the works.

I'm betting on Star Wars and/or Lord of the Rings

Of course,... the LotR one was done for the Italian April fools or something like that already...

Anyway,... I wish people would just forget the whole April 1 stuff. I don't remember being stung by it but... practical jokes can be very unpractical.

Not a joke but... Try looking for someone to sublet with the starting date of April 1st. It's HARD!

Last year after I left my friend's house late at night, I called him from a pay phone and told him I was in jail. He and his wife jumped out of their beds being shocked and actually believed my story. I later told him it was a April Fools joke.

Default not an april fools day joke this year but.

back in high school i played the following pranks for april 1st.

freshman year: i put a bunch of grape flavored carbonated capsules called "fizzies" in all the drinking fountains. took me about 2 hours but the water ran purple soda for about half the day.

sophmore year: took a cooler full of dry ice to school and dumped them in the boy's bathroom toilets. creepy foggy bathrooms and frozen pipes

junior year: expanding glue in the lock of some teachers i didn't like from previous years = classes locked out of their rooms until locks can be removed.

senior year: actually nothing. they caught onto me by then and were watching me all day april 1st. but they never could prove that the senior prank of Mr. bubble in the school pool was me

Flash news report:

People are now buying HD-DVD players as paperweights and cup holders and are now using HD-DVD's for coasters and frisbees.

Blu-Ray was all just a dream, there really is no such thing as a Blu-Ray. They're really just updated DVD players. The placebo effect wins!!! You all just thought they looked better.

Best Buy removes all HD DVD movies from their shelves. That's not a joke, I just went there and was actually surprised.

Um, ISTR last year's April Fool's joke was
"Disney bans 'Tron' to the Vault because of copyright issues"
and it was a little too scarily close to real life for anyone to be laughing.

I go with Bill Hunt's Digital Bits policy of not posting April 1 jokes, and providing "a safe Internet April-Free Zone".

How ridiculous is this guy. You talk about some of the worst most pathetic threads ever. He clearly has no life what so ever and merely feels better about himself trying to rile people up. The guy is a total boob. He likes turtles.
