That reads wrong.
It's still March 31st at 11:00 UTC for all those who live within UTC. :p

As the beginning of a day - seen from a global perspective - is relative, you have to correct your post.
It's totally inaccurate. :p

Youtube buffer speed has been so terrible for so long they may as well take it down. Hangs up regardless of quality. At first I thought Verizon Fios was throttling youtube but it seems people on other services are also experiencing this.

Let us focus on the things that matter. Clearly, April fools' joke is not for everyone (i.e. intelligent people). To the people for whom YouTube is everything and whose world view has narrowed so far that they will believe it to be true will it be the right kind of April fool's joke. I am sure of it.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

My guy on the Inside

Confirms;

It is In Deed April 1st.

On the existence of an "1st April Joke"

He has no comment.

There's nothing worse than an EVE player, generally considered to be top of the food chain in the MMO world, that cannot smacktalk with wit and coherency.
