April fools...

[*Bob*]

Question mark after 'he'?

[bigbadwolf]

That's all I need. Thanks *Bob*. You've really made Mikes day.

[Moos]

This is too much like taking candy from a baby, so I'll let Mockers get the next one in.

[citizenED]

Post something on hear that brakes all the rools of spelling, and grammar: just to be ironic because you no them all really. Then post it again, all present and correct to prove you're a grammatical whizz. April fool!

[Mikecg]

People in glass houses BBW glass houses......

[mockney piers]

Too easy moos, too easy.

Though I'll point out to *Bob* that BBW's post could easily be a statement and therefore quite correct, though I will also note that *Bob*'s post does contain a question mark and is therefore questioning the possibility rather than correcting BBW per se, so I'll shut up, which may or may not be hyphenated.

I'll also get my coat.

Back on topic

Has anybody spotted any good ones yet?

Candidates so far, Royal Horticultural Society to play tomato plants Day of the Triffids, to encourage them to grow (and wipe out the human race?), and Alan Shearer made Manager at Newcastle.

Guardian's is far too obvious. Poor effort

Guardian to be published on twitter

APRIL FOOLS' DAY FUN

Somehow, the Daily Mail has got its mitts on an astonishing picture of the home secretary Jacqui Smith emerging from an Ann Summers shop with a bag full of goodies...hold on, that picture doesn't look right. Oh, you guys! It's April Fools' day again. Many of the other papers join in the annual try-to-trick-the-reader session.

The Sun says the Ukraine football team have been given permission to play the full six-and-a-half minute long version of their national anthem at tonight's match against England. "Any fan who sits back down or jeers during the performance may face ejection," readers are warned. The Express tells the story of Alberto, his surname withheld to protect him from prosecution, who has rendered his Westfield sports car invisible to speed cameras using a specially formulated clear plastic film. The Telegraph tries to convince its readers that moves are afoot to harness the power generated by salmon to boil kettles And the Guardian's jape? You'd have to be a twit(ter) not to spot the anagram on page five.

The Sun - Ukraine's big game refrain is 6min pain

The Express - Now you see it...now you don't

The Daily Mail - Oh Jacqui

Telegraph - The salmon current

Guardian - Twitter switch for Guardian, after 188 years of ink

Years ago I worked a 12 month contract in Glasgow for an engineering form and after constant tit for tat wind ups between me and the IT Operators, I finally had my comeuppance on my last day when someone stole my car keys, opened the sun roof on my car and filled it up with polystyrene packing balls and shredded paper before return my keys to my desk.

Funny thing is that the WHOLE firm (including the managing director) were in the car park to wave me off that night and I didn't realise why until I got to my car...

Almost the same as filling a room, but much more frustrating as you can't just 'dump' the waste on the side of the road now.

Anyone get taken in by Stephen Fry?s discovery of a shark-whale on the BBC?

[Huguenot]

Ermmmm. I hate being daft, but what was the anagram, did I miss it? :(

[Tony.London Suburbs]

He's referring to the Shark Whale anagram.

Kittens Got Talent?

Best I can do is... Got ten tit-anklets. Referring to some sort of East End jewellery perhaps.
