      After however times they've done this, the only way they could pull an april fools joke is by tricking people by not putting up any fake stories. Instead, post stories that sound fake but really aren't.

      Or... post serious stories, but have all the links go to the wrong articles. Maybe have them all go to the same site, so that it gets slashdotted extra severely.

  9. What I really like about slashdot by marcelk · · Score: 5, Insightful

    What I really like about slashdot is that every year they manage to sneak in one subtle, carefully crafted April's Fool joke amid all of the reagular stories. Their prank blends in very well almost unnoticable, unless for the the prepared or critical reader. If you're not alert, you're made to believe something totally outrageous. Subtlety, careful avoidance to reference the actual date, and not ruining the joke by overdoing it: that is the real April Fool's spirit! I thank slashdot for honoring this tradation.

    I mean... gah! I know it's April fools (actually, it's been and gone in Australia), but my god how many piss poor jokes can one website take?

    I come to Slashdot to enjoy some geeky news and stories of interest, not be bombarded with poor joke after poor joke, all of which are retreads of the same poor jokes we've had year after damn year.

    You had Cobble Stones???

    Shoot, we had to make do with Fortran on Feet. And we had to hand carry our Holloriths, too. Seventeen flights of stairs from the punchcard stations to the cardreader, through waist deep snow, and uphill both ways.

    Hee, hee... I remember when Crazy Dave started saving all the chad from the bitbuckets of the cardpunch machines. After about a month he had this huge bag of microconfetti, and one afternoon when the Admin had his back to us (rethreading the backup highspeed tape machine, he was), Crazy Dave dumped all that chad into the input buffer of that old woodburning computer. Sparks went flying out every which-way from the grating, and the fluepipe turned cherry red from the heat, but that's got to have been the first ever attempt at overclocking! w00t!

    That afternoon Crazy Dave prolly would of solved that puzzle Fermat left behind if the a/c had been able to keep up with the overclocking. But core overheated and the itty-bitty little wires of the outer 16K frame melted, and there were suddenly 147,456 tiny little ferrous donuts rolling around the floor (those frames used 8 bit bytes with a parity bit: pretty good stuff in the day). That's when Crazy Dave and I decided that physically removing ourselves from the presence of the Admin would be a prudent alteration in our plan.
