Re: Let the pranks begin...
Actually, I thought about it harder. Since most of us on the board are native English speakers seemingly, it would excluded the non-native speakers on the board from being understood by the majority. Your mom want that, Mobius? Then your mom's posts would not be understood by most of us for a day at least.

I'm sorry, what's the difference?  :P

Agreed. Wouldn't be that much worse than what we got this year, and it's definitely a cool idea.

I'm interested on the several hundred German and Polish members, actually. I don't really count because I'd be the only one posting in Italian.

Also, as you aware that the Pirate Day is extremely unfriendly to non native English speakers? Adding a Return to Babel day would be a metter of balance.

Re: Let the pranks begin...
Would that do any good? It may still appear in that form even if your mom are quoting.

Edit: I just noticed that it changed into mom in this post, so I went to the quote link and my quote is also in that form and says mom. So maybe it wouldn't do any good.

*Shrugs* It worked on each and every post affected by the pregnancy message, so I don't see why it shouldn't work there.
Oh, and Mobius is right. There needs to be something to balance out the extreme annoyance that is TLP-day

Ban Mobius day? There are many who would find that quite relaxing. :p

I know the link won't work, and most people here dislike NASCAR (I totally do) but I thought this was funny

http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/sports_nascar/2009/04/did-obama-tell-chevy-dodge-to-ditch-its-nascar-funding-.html

Car and Driver pulled off the biggest April Fools' Day joke of the day on its Web site, caranddriver.com. It posted a story headlined "Obama Orders Chevrolet and Dodge Out Of NASCAR - Car News"

Granted, right below the headline, you saw the words "HAPPY APRIL FOOLS' DAY! THIS IS A JOKE. LIGHTEN UP, PEOPLE". Still, it became one of the hottest items on Twitter during the noon hour and has sparked a lot of conversation about the auto industry's involvement in NASCAR.

In Singapore there was an 'Electronic Baby Pricing' where if you went to this shopping mall and you didn't have a baby with you, you'd be fined 200 bucks. Which was quite lol because the mall was built for teens and the like.

No it's not, I'm not a native English speaker and yet find always TLAPD entertaining.

On a related note: Yes we know you're Italian... there's no need to remind us in every second-or-so post of that fact... because frankly my dear... we don't care.
