Happy April Two’s Day…
April Fool’s Day is no fun on a Sunday. No social chatter at all about all the fun things the interwebs is trying to trick you with. Heck, it was 4:00 pm when I finally looked at my watch yesterday and realized that it was the 1st. So here are three bacon (and nerd) related April Fool’s Day pranks that I found “amusing”.
First, this one was emailed to me in advance from Green Works. I have to admire the production value here. The rep who sent me the note said she’d send some product coupons, but I’ve never received a reply from my email…
Second, this from Lowe’s Home Improvement’s Facespace page…
ANNOUNCING: New bacon scented air filters for your HVAC. A Lowe’s exclusive!
Now you can enjoy the smell of sizzling bacon — morning, noon and night. Read a recent customer review of this innovative new product at http://social.lowes.com/6Eq.
Be warned: Excessive salivation may occur.
and (c), it wouldn’t be April Fool’s without our friends at ThinkGeek getting our hopes up with yet another inspired fake product…
Now, ThinkGeek has found a way to bring these wonderful fakes to market (Tauntaun Sleeping Bag, My First Bacon), but somehow I just don’t think LucasFilm is going to go for this one (but if they do – count me in!).
So Happy April Two’s Day everyone…hope you had a great day!
