Well it’s April 2nd, and once again I’m left questioning what’s real and what isn’t on the internet. Why do webmasters and webmistresses find it so funny to like, write everything backwards or remove vowels from their site on April Fools’ Day? Oh ho ho, I was expecting one thing, but I got something completely different<\/em>… I’ve been APRIL FOOL HORNSWAGGLED.<\/p>\n

Here are some stories and links that tripped me up yesterday.<\/p>\n

You guys win, I'm sufficiently fooled.<\/p><\/div>\n

Cypress Hill Debut “Rise Up” Video Online<\/strong><\/a>. \u00c2\u00a0This one nearly got me until I realized that Cypress Hill* hasn’t put out an album since 1993, and… oh wait, they did? \u00c2\u00a0They’ve released six<\/em> albums since then? \u00c2\u00a0And a new one is coming out this year? \u00c2\u00a0Well then this is an even more successful prank, because there’s no way this song is real. \u00c2\u00a0To really drive the prankiness home, they even hired Tom Morello to “Tom Morello it up” all over this fake track instead of just releasing a new video for “Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That,” which is all Cypress Hill should be doing until the end of time.

Boil water advisory remains in effect for Jersey City until tests prove water is safe to drink<\/strong><\/a>. \u00c2\u00a0Haha, the water is never safe to drink here. \u00c2\u00a0Nice try Jersey City!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

The A-Team Trailer #2<\/strong><\/a>. \u00c2\u00a0Again, I admire the production values that went into this prank. \u00c2\u00a0It’s got Qui Gon, shirtless Bradley Cooper and a bunch of other dudes blowing shit up, just like the real A-Team from the early 60’s television program. \u00c2\u00a0This appears to be a follow-up to the cinematic G.I. Joe prank that was released in theaters last year… and really, hats off to the masterminds behind that one. \u00c2\u00a0You guys are good. \u00c2\u00a0But yeah, sorry to get your hopes up A-Team fans, but this simply isn’t happening in 2010.<\/p>\n

(* Note for my younger readers: Cypress Hill was one of (if not the most) successful Latino rap groups in the early 90’s. \u00c2\u00a0With such hits as Insane in the Brain<\/em>, How I Could Just Kill a Man<\/em>, and I Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That<\/em>, the group was very popular among dudes in backwards baseball hats, weed smokers, and weed smoking dudes in backwards baseball hats. \u00c2\u00a0Tom Morello was the guitar player for Rage Against the Machine. \u00c2\u00a0“The Machine” is the American government.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
