I had a lot more respect for this before I realized it was an April Fools joke. Why limit such creativity to one day in April that's just awash in the inane?


I don't think anyone here truly thinks that there's a time restriction on creativity. April Fool's day just gives us all an excuse to be a little silly, and collectively indulge in some light humour.

If anything, the day acts as a sort of prompt for this kind of creative work. It doesn't limit creativity, stuffing it into a once-a-year box. Instead, it encourages more creative projects that otherwise wouldn't occur.
