Best April Fools gag you've seen today?

[ffl]

I've seen two. Although one was just "fail" in so many ways.

The first one was from the episode of One Piece that just aired in Japan today, Sunday. The opening starts off like it usually does, but there's something different in it...

Screen in question:

I chalk it up to the raw provider just adding in a litle something extra. Then... I notice something else...

What is in there this time:

But wasn't last time:
http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/5862/ndvd021uh2.th.jpg (http://img251.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ndvd021uh2.jpg)

there are now two random guys in the opening with the rest of the crew.=S I'm thinking it's some sort of joke by the raw provider until I realized... "Oh... it's April Fool's day, this must've been a joke by the animators. Very slick... first time I've seen an April Fool's joke in an anime series."

Here are other comparison screens of the opening for those who are curious:

This next one is just a total failure on their part though. Link... in more ways than one (http://www.wii.tv/2007/03/31/wiitv-exclusive-new-title-announcement/). It was just too pathetic... mainly because it makes me sad that it's only a joke.=(

Nah, the only April fools jokes I've seen are the ones posted here on AN.

Mexico celebrates the equivalent of April Fools on December 28. Obviously everyone is so damn drunk from the holidays, nobody even celebrates it.

As if we didn't celebrate enough stupid holidays. Day of the taco anyone?

[ffl]

Hm, what kind of taco?

[akpookie]

Over on the DATS forum, which is the fansubbing group that is doing Digimon Savers, they announced they had received a cease&desist order and that they weren't going to be releasing the final episode of Savers.

People FREAKED OUT. Luckily for me, I didn't get on until after all the fuss was over and they had admitted to the joke so I wasn't fooled. The thread is pretty funny though. Don't mess with Digimon fans man, they're crazy. :lol:

That's the only one I've seen so far today though.

[Soluzar]

The fansub group which Narutards love and which I may not name here had a pretty amusing April Fool. They put up a front page saying that they had been taken down by the US DoJ for copyright violations. I was lullin' thinking of all those nubs and lamers soiling themselves at the thought of no more Naruto.

I haven't really seen any but one. I entered Lion's Arch in Guild Wars and my gender was changed. :/

[Evil_Koala]

I wore my clothes BACKWARDS today...Mwahahahaha...People were all "Hey douche-bag! Put your clothes on the right way! It's not funny!" And I went into a Sears and was like "May I try on a coat?" And I came out of the dressing room with the coat on backwards...I didn't buy it though. April Fools Day...the one day I can be a *******...well I do that everyday anyway...The one day I can be an ******* pulling half *** pranks :)

[VidelCoolGirl]

I asked the mods to change my name to VIDEO but it didn't happen.

[Videl'sCoolMom]

None of these are as great as the joke I pulled on my daughter today. I told her I was adopted.

Correction: Nobody has topped EGM´s Sonic and Tails in SSBM.

[ffl]

I thought the Futuristic Legend of Zelda thing was pretty good, especially since the video I saw had it dated before April 1st, but after checking their site and seeing the date that they had for that bit of info, it was just lame once I saw that they had tried to pull their joke early.

[Sendo Takeshi]

Correction: Nobody has topped EGM´s Sonic and Tails in SSBM.


Well, considering that everyone was begging for MvC3, this was the bigger joke. It REALLY got everyone pissed off to find out it wasn't real. Must be a fighting game thing for us. =/

ADV buting out Tokoshan and DB buying shut down by the FBI was awesome, but expected.

/b/ turned off wordfilters. Gay. It´ll probably be something huge tomorrow...

VGcats and YTMND both became Myspace... ugh...

None are as good as this;

Showing my lack of knowledge in video games these days, is the guy in the red coat the half-demon Devil May Cry dude? I haven't played any console games since the N64, so I'm a little sketchy on new(ish) games.

People in Medford, NJ are boring, so I didn't see a single decent April Fool's joke. Hell, the most response I saw was when I told my brother and sister that one of our cats had been run over on Route 70. They started screaming hysterically, and I felt like a douche-bag. This is why I generally don't participate in this rather dubious day.

Best April Fool's prank I've ever heard was before NHL started up again. Jackson (93.3 FM WMMR) called in to the Preston and Steve morning show (same) to report that Flyers tickets were going on sale. People waited for hours to buy tickets that didn't exist. Beautiful.

[GreatNekoKoneko]

...whoa. Videl's mom? here? NICE. now i can pull a "yo mama" joke.


man. that's lame.

this reminds me of that Hoax about Van bombs in football stadioums, started be Ed Baulmen, lol I think he missed April 1st by a long shot, but if he did it on April first what a hell of a prank that would be.

Hm? That's the same link I posted earlier. It was about a futuristic Link. I don't think it had anything to do with a remake of Wind Waker.

ya i saw that that was perrty funny

She makes me get off my laptop to post. Its not fair having the only computer in the house. Whatever she says, SHE IS NOT funny on AF day. I'm not getting off any time soon, that might the only post by her.

[Old Ape Face]

Damn i haven seen anything done to wow yet, my computer crashed, and I can't get on WoW. :(

[GreatNekoKoneko]

...Videl, all i can say is...

YOU wa SHOCK!

[Old Ape Face]

Seriously that was your mom :O I thought that was Prons pulling a cheep prank on us.

[VidelCoolGirl]

...Videl, all i can say is...

YOU wa SHOCK!

Darn right!

My mom shocks a little more though.

[Videl'sCoolMom]

See, as soon as she said that, I made her get off, because I'm her mother, and she can't tell me what to do.

You kids all need to get ready for school tomorrow instead of sitting here and talking on a computer all day. Your moma ain't paying for college to let you all sit around.

[Old Ape Face]

Actually, she is, but I'm already in college, :D doing fine at it too.

[blackknight]

My momma ain't paying for college, so it's all good.

[VidelCoolGirl]

See...Man, good thing she doesn't have a computer. She'd take my place as Alpha Female...

And i'd jump shark, Cuase Dominatrix will see to it I leave, and I don't want no fighting.

What the hell are tackey and tsubasa doing in one piece XD

I guess the crazy rainbow single must be the op or ed for one piece, I don’t usually catch up with one piece but I am sort of a T&T fan VV;;

( more info for those who don’t know what I’m talking about. http://wiki.theppn.org/Tackey_%26_Tsubasa )

[Nano]

Why did I expect Videls mom to be as cool as Kiyomi?
I like to take this day to NOT play tricks on people. But
"You look really nice today."
"Really?"
"Aprils fool!!" is fun and easy.

Lol.:lol: Yeah, I didn't know that they were the singers of Crazy Rainbow until someone in a One Piece forum told me.:P It makes perfect sense now though.XD Hehe, next week's opening theme is going to seem lonely without them hanging out with the crew.:P

[Haro!]

Ah didn't reply to this thread earlier. Some girl called me up and told me she was pregnant and it was mine on April Fool's. I fell for it too.

So... was it yours or was she just trying to hook up with you again?:P

[Alice Catherine]

I did one to my dad Sunday and my friends did one for me today.

Sunday:

Told my dad there was a deer out back. I waited three hours before calling him back in. While my mother laughed her *** off, his face was ****ing purple.

Today:

My friends told me that the one friend was seriously hurt in a car accident because he was nowhere to be found. They made a fake newspaper article, his girlfriend fake cried, and they waited until I started crying before Kelton jumped up behind me, covered my eyes, and said "Guess who?" Then they all screamed APRIL FOOLS!
I am SO getting them next year.

[ffl]

Those sort of tricks are SO not funny...

Just dump a bucket of cold water on them while they're sleeping. Not very thoughtful, but neither was the other one.:P

[Alice Catherine]

I kicked Kelton in the balls because he fell asleep at the assembly. He must of thought he was getting something because we were sitting down and all of a sudden my leg falls on his lap to take aim. Alex has this look on his face like "Just what in the hell do you think you are doing?" until I brought my foot down HARD.

What about google's 'broadband through your toilet' thing?

[ZeroRyoko1974]

Google paper was kind of funny, along with Google Toilet ISP. Funniest gag was a few years ago when a local morning show said that some yuppy suburb's water supply had been infected with Dyhydrogeon Monoxide (h2O). They were saying stuff like a small amount can kill you (like you drown in a few inches) and some other stuff. The local City got pissed off because the water dept was inudated with calls, and they had to give out like from PSA time to the City.

Dear Diary,
Today I kissed a boy. It started out a bit awkward, but after our lips met, I knew it was meant to be. I wonder if I should tell mom.

[superplough]

^Some bastard published an article in the local paper saying the Christchurch Catherdral was to be demolished. >_<

@Alice: psychopath much?

[Soluzar]

I kicked Kelton in the balls because he fell asleep at the assembly.
That's no kind of a reason to kick someone in the balls! Kicking someone in the balls is Serious Business.

[Alice Catherine]

^Nah, that was retaliation for the prank. I just used the fact that he was asleep as an excuse.

NO, I am NOT a psychopath.

[Soluzar]

I missed the part where you mentioned the prank. I guess that's slightly better of a reason. Still, I'm not sure you really understand how painful it's going to be. If you're going to get your own back on someone, do it within reasonable limits.

That was the prank, Soluzar. They made me CRY. They're fairly good actors in that way. So I decided to get him back before Spring Break started.

[The Million Dollar Prons]

This thread fails becuase no one has mentioned Maddox.

[Nano]

Fake cried? with fake tears? AC you still crazy. You'll never know the pain you caused that guy.
*Stabs* "April fools!"
"I'm bleeding!"
"I know isn't it funny!?"
"I'm dying!!! AC YOU CRAZY *****!"

I wouldn't stab someone unless they were raping me. I'm not that crazy.

THEY MADE ME CRY! I thought Kelton was like, dying or something...

You do know even your average Joe could write a 1000 page essay on the pain of being kicked in the manhood...right?

[Soluzar]

Preferably in the written in the blood, guts and entrails of the person who did the kicking. I don't think there's anything at all that can justify kicking a guy in the balls unless he's attacking you. By attacking, I mean physically, of course. I think that to do so unless you feel physically threatened is cowardly and more than a little evil.

[Haro!]

I for one think its hot

[Mazinkaiser]

Remind me to kick you in the nuts, the next time you are feeling aroused :P

I guess someone enjoyed the torture scene in Casino Royal.

[KyouryokuSenshi]

I work in a grocery store and one of my co-workers put raw meat in the gloves of one of the guys the produce department so when he put on his gloves he's like 'why are they so wet?' and then took em off and the meat fell out. Turns out the same person smeared the meat all over the produce cart.-_-;

The administrators of another forum I participate to told the members the forum would disappear soon (lack of funds). They did it so seriously I believed it.
