BTW, if people want to read about the inspiration for the prank, here’s the April Fool thread Into the Sky with Diamonds posted.

I was going to say “I wanna play”, but then I read about Cynthia and now I’m not in the mood anymore. It was a nice prank, though!

Same here, I was going to make a joke thread but I just don’t feel like it now. 

Great idea parlance!

Similar thing here.  I was asked back in late February to be a part of this and I was planning to until about a week ago.  Then my dog died and I wasn’t in the mood anymore.

Still, I’m happy to see so many other people having fun with it.  I guess I didn’t quite realize how many people were in on it.

EDIT: Also, I’d like to thank the people behind this for being so understanding when I pulled out of it. apple01apple02

This was brilliant, Von Partee and Annadog, what a wonderful surprise! Thank you all for participating. 

I’d offer you all apples but I’m sure you’re sick of them by now.

Just an FYI. I’m archiving these pages with the Wayback Machine, and I discovered a nasty side effect of uploading avatars to another site and then linking them, rather than uploading them here. If you’re using a site like imgur, they might have robot blocking code in their pages, and your avatar right now is showing up in the archive as a broken link. :-( So if by any chance you want your avatar to be preserved, it’s best to use the first option of uploading it here on the BBF server, which I have now done because I have a couple more pages I want to preserve.

Hope that makes sense. If it doesn’t let me know.

Edit: Ugh, I forgot this doesn’t work so well with animated gifs. They won’t animate on the wordpress server for some reason.
