HA! APRIL FOOLS TO YOU PEOPLE IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE! IT'S ALREADY APRIL 2 HERE! HA-HAHA-HAHA! :D


Anyways, I found this article I found in drac's link to be rather amusing. SEX HARMS PEOPLE! WE MUST PROTECT THEM FROM THE REALITY OF REPRODUCTION AND SEXUAL INTERCOURSE! DEATH, GORE, AND VIOLENCE ARE FINE SINCE THEIR A NORMAL AND CLEAN PART OF LIFE, BUT IF YOU SHOW A PENIS GOING INTO A VAGINA, YOU'RE GOING TO HELL! HELL!!

Aww, man, they took the link to Virgle off of the main Google.com page. Fortunately, the actual joke content is still there, so you can still follow the link I gave above.

I was thinking of doing some sort of terrible foolery, but it turns out I have a job. Also, today someone new started who's in my office all the time, so my slacking potential is reduced.

She's a real person. I've read (glanced through) her WP article before. Unless they've done some crazy memory hypnotism on me.

FUN TIP: Read the featured article as presented on the main page.

ALSO:
The D&D site

ALSO:

Curse, a website dedicated to addons for the MMORPG World of Warcraft had an addon uploaded that claims to increase the average of the /roll feature for any one who downloads it. Instead it plays Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up when the /roll command is entered.

Genius.

World of Warcraft announces the Bard Hero Class

Mum humour makes me sad.

Pythons involved in stupid things makes me semi-sad.

The daily "tips for living green" newsletter I get had one today: Good Things Come in Threes. For a few paragraphs I was wondering WTF, then I remembered what day it is, then I promptly forgot & got myself Rickroll'd shortly afterward.

Also, based on the comments, a lot of my fellow greenies are pretty humorless, which isn't too surprising really.

Also read the "Did you know..." and "On this day...". The best part about it is that those look silly but are all technically true.
