To say that today (or yesterday, depending on your perspective) has been an interesting day for our community would be something of an understatement. While we understand that some people do dislike that 4/1 does not mean business as usual on the site, I think it provides us an important opportunity to remind everyone we are a single community, and just once in awhile, it's all right for us to have a bit of fun together and perhaps enjoy being a little bit silly.

For what it's worth, we understood that you didn't want a bunch of fake stories, so we tried to do something a little different, and hopefully catch you off guard at the same time.

I'd love to hear your feedback on what you liked and didn't like this year, and for those who wish to continue using it, the VT100 theme shall remain available as it was before. And with that note, so long, and thanks for all the fish :)

    I just stay off of news sites on April 1, and don't pay attention to anyone. The mindset wanes and everything is back to normal about April 5, as some people try to take things way too far until April 3 to 4.
