April Fools

[Bram Turismo]

One of my friends said she was pregnant...

An hour later, my girlfriend told she was pregnant, of course it didn't work, but if she'd said it earlier, oh man now that wouldn't be no funny joke!

10 stories that you would think were fake but are actually true! (and one very fake!)

I hope they can still call barmaids 'love', otherwise British TV is dead

Remake of FFVII for PS3

I like the all-download-no-Blu-Ray-PS3 option. I think there are plenty of people that would go for it.

I do not, however, like being teased about Final Fantasy.

 

[Loon]

I didn't have any played on me today, but quite a few girls today played pretty awful jokes on their boyfriends. At least 2 girls did tell their boyfriend that they were pregnant, and one more plans on doing it later today.

Lol, didn't realize there was a second page.

At school we put tape on the bottom of laser mice.
I always find Google's April fools jokes to be pretty funny.

Clicky

In case anyone needs a Betamax to HD-DVD converter.

That is absolutely brilliant!

I would not like it. In Australia, more like 25% have a high speed connection. Downloading a 2gig game for me would take about 30 hours.

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.

True. My little brother nearly hid all the toiletries on me today...

Not much of a gag, but still in the right spirit.

Edit: Actually, someone put a stinkbomb in the radiators and the janitors are still dismantling them to see the problem.

There were a couple things here. The math department put out a newsletter saying my Calc prof's phd was getting revoked and that all credits taken under him would be taken away.

And then I came back to my room and found a roll of paper towels from the bathroom strung around everything.

This year although I wasn't fooled, I think Google's Autopilot was pretty clever and funny.

[Der Alta]

I visit a webcomic www.the-whiteboard.com and that had me going for a few minutes this morning.

Other than that, and the smilies here, I haven't seen much of anything.

 

[WallRunner]

I redesigned the NASCAR 09 paint site I'm an admin on, instead of offering paint schemes for N09, we now offer paint schemes for Barbie Horse Adventures (link is in my sig.)

From,

This is good

Brand New has fooled me both this and last year.

Here you go:

Obama orders Car and Driver to cease operations EDIT: They pulled that one too.

http://www.thinkgeek.com has some nice new products.

Hyundai i10 gets Popemobile makeover and other auto stories

Rockband.com forums added Rock and Band to the swear filter.

Umbrella Corporation asks for bailout

And Car and Driver had another about Obama forcing GM and Chrysler to quit NASCAR, but apparently it was too plausible and people over-reacted, so it was taken down and an apology put up in its place.


There are plenty others, but those are the only ones I have seen in my news reader.

 

[Barracuda]

This morning my friend texted me and said he had just bought a 74 Camaro with a 440 in it. I almost had a heart attack until I realized it was April fools day, and what would a Mopar engine be doing in a Camaro anyhow, lol.

 

[tupacrulez]

I went around to all 30+ computers at my school library and flipped the screens.

I think they still have a few down.

 

[Patrik]

Haven't been fooled I think. But YouTube is upside down.

No it's not.

I got a few girls today with the old "Your shoelace is undone" trick, even though they were wearing velcro shoes.

Nothing got me except this little one which had me until I read the comments, so I didn't bother downloading.

 

[TsukubaTrueno]

The only thing that got me today at school was my English Literature teacher, Mrs. Chinaris..

On the overhead projector it said "Please take out pen or pencil and a sheet of paper, take everything off desk." I immediately thought it was obviously an April fools prank. She had such a serious look on her face, and even flipped out when a girl had a jacket on her desk. She started revealing the questions and I thought "It's a real pop quiz, I guess.." I was scared, I hadn't studied. She reveals "question" #6 and it says "Happy April Fools Day."

My expression = wat

 

[Omnis]

And Car and Driver had another about Obama forcing GM and Chrysler to quit NASCAR, but apparently it was too plausible and people over-reacted, so it was taken down and an apology put up in its place.

Yeah, and there were other complementary stories of Hyundai joining nascar in GM and Chrysler's wake with the Genesis sedan. Too funny.

 

[Keef]

YouTube didn't provide a link to videos that aren't actually upside down? Really? Now, what if I actually had work to do. You gotta be kidding me.

 

[Solid Lifters]

For 2009, YouTube and this one... https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=115398 were pretty good.

 

[Tornado]

Court Records had another good one this year, though I wasn't fooled by it like I was their previous one.

 

[wfooshee]

Obama orders Car and Driver to cease operations EDIT: They pulled that one too.

Um, obviously they've ceased operations and taken their site down. Duh!!
