  • azpat, on 04/01/2008, -1/+11I know the date, but I still think it would be awesome if the pirate bay were to strap a server onto a satellite and launch it into orbit.
  • TitaniumLizzard, on 04/01/2008, -1/+11It was North Korea last year
  • inactive, on 04/01/2008, -3/+11I mean, my god! You are talking about stupidity, and your Digg picture is Eminem! Holy *****...do you not see the hilarity in that?

  • ralphthemagi, on 04/01/2008, -1/+8Oh crap, me too. I think I'm just going to turn off the internet for today.
  • BobbyMC, on 07/21/2008, -2/+9Aside from all that, the fact is if people have to go through a day of getting messed with it strengthens their defenses against gullibility, and the more April Fools that go by, the more they are trained to question what they hear, regardless of the source.

    It's probably the most productive of all US holidays.
