The internet doesn't forget. Any press is good press but memes are whole new world.
April Fool's Day prank? I guess Volkswagen is ahead of their time...
Duh.
Now everyone who suspected it and commented out loud about it can smugly say "i told you so". Those who fell for it have egg on their face. Those commentors who were already providing marketing analysis about the benefits of an April fools' joke will now become intolerable. I'm glad i refrained from commenting earlier:)
