Actually, you'll find if you read the whole page, that it's September 19 - my birthday. ;)

[q]As any guy can tell you, June 6 is the anniversary of World War II's D-Day. Guys hold dates like that in reverence and awe so there was no way we could use June 6.

Mark came up with September 19.

Just wondering - how do you guys set this up? Some sort of filter or something?

I read some of the threads here and I initially though it was just Grug and the nuts in TAP that were finally losing it.

But no... :p

It's done using the word filter. Normally that's just used to censor swearing but every April 1st they do something like this with it.

Well, this is stupid and annoying. It's like having someone tell you the exact same lame joke over and over and over and over and over...

I don't see how it even qualifies as an April Fool's joke, since everybody knows exactly what's going on.
