When your sick, the last thing you wanna do is get out of bed and go chasing your tissue box, which is exactly what you might have to do if you’re unlucky enough to have a sibling or spouse cruel enough to use this Remote-Controlled Tissue Box to lure you around the house like a beggar following a dollar bill on a string.

Then again, you have to admit, it would be fun to be in the drivers seat in that situation. And your brother thought it was funny always stealing your Halloween candy. No trick or treating for you this year, sicko.

This has to be one of the best street pranks ever. Spotted on the streets of Manhattan, some urban prankster had the ingenious idea of altering the “stop” hand of a traditional crosswalk light to resemble a hand flipping the bird instead.

Want to cross the street? Fuck off! No really, just go away. Viva las vandalism! This is so New York City.

I’m not sure how legal this mouse is, but it’s a pretty neat way to screw with your buddies. There is no mention of the actual voltage sent through the body of your unsuspecting victims and there’s probably a good reason why there isn’t, as this product is not recommended “for children under 14 years old, adults over 50 years old, or persons with any medical conditions.”

Yikes! Better read the disclaimer before planning grandpa’s April Fool’s Day joke. The best part? It’s only $5.99.

We already know we are the greatest human beings in the universe, but it would be nice to hear it from other people too. The problem is that we don’t hear anything even close to that claim from our friends or even our own mothers.  So why not get a little help at proving what we already know to be a scientific fact?

Cell Stickies are made to not only glorify your existence as the greatest living human being, but also to assure everyone else around you that you aren’t just fucking around when you say that you are insanely awesome. With positive reinforcement text messages such as “You’re right. As usual!” being sent to your phone, how could people not realize your greatness?

I’m sure you and your friends think your ex is a real cunt, but is that any way to talk to a lady? Absolutely not. Alternatively, you could get her this thong. Aside from the fact that a thong just screams class, this one says “YOU ARE VISITOR: 002637″ on the front part. She’ll not only hate you getting it for her, but she’ll also use it to get revenge when your best friend goes to fuck her during your grad party.

Blizzard went all out this year for their April Fool’s day festivities, and I am loving it! Blizzard has released four April Fools’ themed pranks on their official website. Have you heard about the new face-melting Bard hero class in World of Warcraft which integrates Guitar Hero-like gameplay to the MMO? Or how about that Blizzard will be giving WoW the console treatment?

Be sure not to miss the newly announced Tauren marine units for Starcraft II and a new expansion for Diablo II called Loot Pinata! You know there is some fanboy sitting around and believing everyone of these is true. Poor old chap. — Andrew Dobrow

Google never ceases to amaze with their annual April Fool’s antics, and this year, the search giant brings the joke right to their main search page on their Australian domain. Launching a new “service” called gDay, which shows you tommorows search results, before they happen.

We’re sure this will come in handy for those who play the lottery or gamble their savings away at the tracks. It’ll also be fun to use as a spoiler the evening before election day. — Andrew Dobrow

The death of Dungeons And Dragons’ creator Gary Gygax left a void in the nerd community which might never be filled. His death has not only led to the newest edition of the game guide to be a pre-ordered hit, among the top selling books on Amazon, but has led some to conduct their own memorials.

A group of students at MIT have put together a giant sized D20 die, rolling it through the notoriously prank-filled Killian Court of the school’s campus. If you happen to be the type of nerd who struts around with the coolest new devices, you can get a Dungeons And Dragons dice app for your iPhone. — Andrew Dobrow

If you’re one of those trendy little shits that camps out at Starbucks to steal their WiFi, you know that the cafes are crowded with others just like you. Notebooks in hand, ready for some free Internet access. A few pranksters from the comedy troupe Improv Everywhere set up house at a Starbucks, fully equipped with full desktop computers and monitors in hand.

To our surprise, the pranksters weren’t thrown out of the coffee lounge. Probably due to the audience which the Improv crew drew, audience equaling customers for Starbucks. Meaning more lattes being sold. — Andrew Dobrow
