Just to get this out of the way...

I wanted to let everyone know that I refuse to participate in the stupidity that is April Fool's Day on the Internet. 99.9% of the "jokes" that most sites perpetrate are unoriginal and unfunny, ranging from the "oh, ha ha, we totally changed the look of our site" to the "we're shutting down everything and changing our business model" to even weaker attempts at humor. This kind of crap generally renders the Internet useless for most of the day, and I refuse to insult my readers and fans with that garbage.

And now back to our regularly scheduled blogging and sticker-hunting...

  1. Hopefully GG does not pull some stunt getting us users all excited.

  2. If you have a look at the "Check-in Stickers" section you'll see that they have three April Fool's Day stickers teased there. I don't know if they'll go live at midnight or what the deal is with them, but I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

    The good(?) news is, we did get the stickers! By the time everyone reads this, you'll have found out but posting it anyway!

    Check into "Infomercial" topic and type a product name (i.e. Shake Weight, Ped Egg). You must do it twice for both stickers to pop! :)
