Remember that a lot of you see today on the internet will be humorless lies.
Sounds like most BB posts…

Many Scottish radical leaders saw armed insurrection as the only way to achieve their ends. Conditions were right as the post-war depression and unemployment created great unrest in the industrial south of Scotland, particularly among weavers. Government agents, however, were at work among the Radical leadership. John King of Anderston, sometimes calling himself John Andrews, appeared to be their chief agent. The Glasgow police commander, James Mitchell, reported to home secretary Lord Sidmouth in March 1820 that the radicals were preparing a general rising in Scotland. A few days later, on King’s advice, Mitchell arrested the entire 28-man radical central committee in Gallowgate. He then wrote to Lord Sidmouth suggesting that the agents provocateurs take over and issue a call to the rank and file for the rising on, significantly, April Fool’s Day. The ‘Proclamation of the provisional government’ was duly issued and some armed Radicals answered the call, to be immediately arrested by the military.

I like that. It’s simple, silly, harmless, and just on the right side of believable without being obnoxious or annoying.
Old Bay has the right idea:
And of course Think Geek is always good for a laugh…

Fark.com is another one that insists on making itself completely useless every year.
Spit my coffee laughing. This tops the durian based perfume ad I saw a few years ago.

FYI all, Stack Overflow has mercifully provided a “Go to the Future” button for when you tire of the glitter cursor, which does not take long.

I’m reading the guardian’s news stream. This thing is hilarious. They’re saying there would be a severe shortage of avocados and no more avacado toast if Trump closes the Mexican border. Funny stuff guys. Wait…
