The "April Fools Everyone!" OR "Dave is an asshole" thread

[Flake]

Poor Noise. Judging by that picture he had to take time out from work to get fooled.

I think I was the last to fall for it, but I was actually worried, I didn't want dshe to have to sell his collection, not to say I am not above profitting too I was even thinking we should have an charity auction to help him out.

That ran through my head too - although I was hoping I could score some sweet deals first.

That's a nice tie. Very classy.


That hand gesture on the other hand...

you can't tell from the picture but my tie is made out of broken GB carts.

Wow...this thread is still hopping?!

Well then. Get ready for another installment of "Luke says shame on you".

Dave, shame on you. You worried the worm. Shame on you.

Haters gonna hate.

Lol, I had thought of doing a prank VERY much like this one. I was at work all day so I didn't bother.

Well done, Dave.

Thanks, Flake. I have my sights squarely set on your "funniest member" title for 2011. Consider this the first serious missive.

Noise almost immediately sent me a text message (instead of a PM) suggesting his concern for my well being (very thoughtful!). When I texted back "April Fools!" he sent me the picture message via cell phone as well (is "texted a picture" the proper lingo?). Somehow the fact that it took place outside the board made it even funnier to me...

See, stuff like this makes me almost feel bad for the little joke, as I know people here genuinely are good-hearted and I was abusing that for the sake of a joke. So thanks to all those people who offered more than I was asking, thought about doing a fundraiser/offering me a loan/etc. It really was appreciated as a sincere gesture.

Still, I had plenty of folks wanting Radiant Silvergun for $20...and no one wanted the $100 GBA SP!

I feel like if you give me Ibara for $25 now then everyone can just move on from this thread.

Is that a double windsor knot there Sir? If so, very nice.

Man, I hope I'm never in serious trouble on April Fool's day.

it's like mega man is pissed that no one bought 9 & 10 and he had to get a real job.

does anyone else feel like this should be my new avatar?
