Morning GZ,

 

Well, April Fool's is here, so feel free to share any amusing treasures you come across today.

 

 

 

 

 


So far I've seen that Watties is making baked beans with weet-bix.

 





Also, Hanmer Springs pools are declaring that from now on, speedos/budgie smugglers are only to be worn in order to save excess water from being dragged out from the pools via board shorts pockets!

May be an image of dessert and text that says "New Ketchup Sundae BBQ Sundae Mustard Sundae"

You laugh but my wife eats her McDonald's chips by dipping them in a sundae. 🤮

Mrs Code meets her morning walking mates at 8.55 am most mornings. I moved the kitchen wall-clock forward 10 mins this morning. She came down from the bedroom to go out at 8.50, saw 9.00  - panicked and said “Sh*t, I’m late!”

 

I had to tell her then - if I had let her go on out so that it escalated, later she may not have seen the obviously hilarious side of it. 😀

 

Old, tired, pathetic AFJ - but still surprisingly effective.





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

I assume today's Heardle must be an April Fool's too.

Home Assistant updated peoples dashboards where custom cards had been used to make them all crooked, some people arent very happy with the gag.

 

Requires an update to the card-mod to get them aligned again
