Over the years, April Fool's Day seems to be becoming less of an excuse for kids to play cruel practical jokes on each other, and more of a chance for news sources to publish transparently sarcastic hoax articles. Here's a good one; it cuts a current fad down to size.

Brilliant, especially the juxtaposition of earth-shattering news with the banal!

Really enjoyed that.

Especially since one of my LJ friends has enabled an app that dumps his day's tweets onto his LJ (in one cumulative daily post). Somehow, I just don't think they have the same snap when so removed from the flow of communication. (ie, not really interesting to read all by their lonesome)
