April Fools

[Blake]

Well I just got Rick Rolled by YouTube.

What has fooled you today?

Well I would like to say Happy Birthday to my "favorite" cousin (despite not being a member here and he hate me going to this site when he's around and being a pain in the arse, but I still could put up with him ) and wish he would get pranked by all his friends. As for me, nothing has happened to me yet (well, not yet anyways) but one of my friends got pranked today

The "Cannine Repellant Alloy Protection" advert from BMW is awesome.

The little bro actually got his hopes up when he saw the flying penguins article in the Telegraph, and I actually felt guilty when I had to tell him it was an April Fools

Fifteen hour work day yesterday, 4 hours of sleep and back at work for at least another 12 today. Not cool. The paycheck, however, will be.

Well, it's in dutch, but basicly it says that Sony found a fault in the SPE of the 90nm PS3s and over a period of time it will fail, but the backup SPE will not engage automatically.
It also says that Sony will look further into the matter and if it's a structural fault they will allow you to send in your PS3 and with €150 extra you'll get a new 65nm model.

I fooled my friend into thinking I sold my Ute, I was driving different car and everything when I did.

Nothing happened so far. Although I am watching my boss struggling with the printer, wondering what I could do to him.

It is kind of a sad day for University of Kentucky fans, as Mr. Wildcat, Bill Kightly died last night. He was the basketball team's equipment manager for 48 years and had not yet retired.



In other news a book I want to buy comes out today that was written by a podcast novelist, and he is trying to get on the NYT bestseller list. It is his first major publisher released title. I enjoy his stories and want to see these podcast novels take off and some of the authors get signed to deals so I intend to go buy a copy. Plus I like the story in his podcast, so I imagine the print version should be enjoyable as well.

Then well some fan linked me to a certain something.



But yeah I have a feeling that RickRoll will go up in view counts a little today...

 

[ExigeEvan]

It seems this April fool's will pass without any dying gran threads, members getting banned or GTP getting hacked.

What a shame.

The day is still young in the US and kids are still in school for another 3-5 hours, based on time zones.

Just give it some time.

 

[Muzaffar]

Damn, I got Rick Rolled twice already!
Once on Isohunt and once by adood84 in the Oh Max! thread.
This is gonna get worse by tomorrow.....

 

[ExigeEvan]

Ah yeah I forgot that. Here's a funny...

 

[Prosthetic]

[ExigeEvan]

No!

It's Danny's, aka, Danachronism, he's actually a member here and posted that a little while ago.
