Tired of April Fools'

Well, with any luck it will be less overdone than last year.

But I'm tired of a whole day where I can't take a damned thing seriously. Everyone will go posting three, four impossibilities, implausibilities, or even plausibilities that just happen to be fake. Every anime in existence will be announced to have been licensed to someone or other. A million game sequels that won't ever exist will get previews. Most obnoxiously, one or two of the reports will actually pan out.

I can live with Blizzard, mostly because they do their April Fools' so over the top that I don't have to mentally filter (last year was, if I'm not mistaken, 8-Bit Molten Core, complete with Atari-era graphics, heh.)

More questionable is Mirror Moon and their "Tsukihime 2" release, which is a continuation of last year's joke (i.e. that it existed in the first place). Ironically, I'd probably be a lot more likely to look at it if they just said "hey, we're doing something funny" and left the trolling aspect out of it.

Ah well. Maybe tomorrow will be really busy at the office and I'll just spend the whole day working. ;p
