Urgh. So despite last night being the mildest of the year, apparently "two icebergs have been spotted in the Solent." /Express FM.

Earthquake in Blackpool /BBC.

What other **** ones have you come across?

Although I did LOL this morning when I read the local paper's website. One bloke is commenting "April's Fool!" on every news item, even the serious ones. Brilliant! http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/
 
April fools day is f*cking tedious. It's the Internet's fault.

Google always do something, and they put a bit of effort in and it's very clever, but it's just obvious.


Blackpool really could do with a quake and a tsunami though.
 
^ That'll be the Gmail Motion one then.
 
Yeah. YouTube's "1911 mode" too.

YouTube's are always kinda weird anyway, they're just more interesting, amusing features rather than trying to make you believe something.

Last year's (I think) text mode for videos was pretty mega, just from a how-the-f*ck point of view!
 
I'm a really good prankster. I don't really celebrate it like that, but when I do... I get em good :--D
 
Do we not think "Earthquake in Blackpool" is a little poor taste to be a April Fool by the BBC?

My money is rather on "Electric Rolls-Royce"

LinkedIn has "people you may know" all as famous fictional characters this morning.
 
It's snowing here. This better be a

This went out to the winners of Force India's VJM05 test driver competition...

Made me smile, but was kind of obvious.
Better than this ****ing colour scheme though!!
 
I hate April Fools day, however, I swiped my mates phone earlier and changed my name in his contact list to "God". I'm just about to ring him so his caller display will read "God is calling" and I hope he picks up :p

Google's this year is to type "Helvetica" into Google...

V That's the one :p
 
Sam found one on the BBC Sport website this morning, something about Portugal selling Christiano Ronaldo to Spain even though they can't technically do that. He got very angry and annoyed and then I pointed out the date, and yet he still went 'it might be true though'. No Sam.
 
There was one I saw earlier about something changing colour and make my eyes hurt for a little while. Pretty crap tbh!

;)
