The often overlooked thing about April Fool’s pranks is that they should be at least remotely believable.
Yes, but this is the first I’ve seen today that I’ve laughed at!
You mean to tell me that GooFoo is not believable?
So you’re telling me that you read through a lot of the April Fool’s jokes and actually believe them? Like Google going to Mars?
I am gunning for XPSP12 still
Come on XP!!!!
looool ..

Makes you wonder whether it will really be able to hold out that long.
The first April Fool’s that I’ve liked today.

Excellent - made me laugh - best I’ve seen.

First April Fools post I’ve actually laughed at today too. Great post!
Yeah, I decided to replace that with a moon.
Glad you enjoyed it! We were seeing some pretty, well, dumb ones so we tried to come up with something that would make people laugh.
