Ask HN: The Best April Fools’ Day jokes

AF has gotten annoying as hell. The only time it's actually cool is when it ends up into cool tech but that is rare enough - Google's pokemon game is neat I guess.

Like many people in tech, I dread Aprl 1st. I have to stay away from my news and social sources because they turn to utter crap.

I'm glad HN is quiet regarding AF this year. Let's hope this tradition dies down as more and more people find it lame every year.

I let my co-founder call a person called Mr. de Leeuw (very common name in The Netherlands, translated Mr Lion)and gave him the number of the zoo. Was very funny, because he didn't noticed the date and really asked for Mr. de Leeuw. (Mr. Lion). I'll expect some payback from him now. Old Joke.. but still very funny!
