Topic: April Foolishness 2012

[sgore]

Everyone! It is that time of year! The time of jokes and such and stuff and things.

Let us collect what merriment we see around the internet this year into this thread for analytical purposes.
Let us do this because we can.

To get us started, it appears Google Maps is offering an NES quest view: http://maps.google.com/
and Google itself is offering really advanced search: http://www.google.com/js/reallyadvanced.html

And...these things seem less like jokes and more like things I just want to be real.

In any case, if you see anything else the internet is offering up for this year's funfest of joke-itude, please place it here for our viewing pleasure.

Strange, I don't remember you being made of pork at any point in our mutual knowledge of one another.

Although I cant find a proper article on it, Cartoon Network brought back toonami for one night only and at the end Tom said "Next Saturday we'll be showing new".

I hope everybody has put their order in for discs of all the videos on YouTube.

I got mine in Laserdisc, and shipped by freight.

Only $3,000,000!

Unusually no April foolishness from the forums it seems.
