I hate april fools day because every site I visit make some sort of joke or prank which isn't funny or endearing in the slightest. It's just freaking tedious.

On a side note, I do quite enjoy seeing the gamespot logo above the gbatemp banner.

I think that it was 2 or 3y ago now, as they didn't do anything last year either other than link some of teh funniez from other sites.

Did anyone find any remotely amusingly good April Fools Day sites this year? The shoutboxed links are fail...
