But I think I have to share this anyways.
Just... look at this device. It needs to be seen to be believed.
Do not look away. The nozzle is calibrating.
It looks like a freaking weapon in some terrible shooter game, or maybe a bad 70s sci fi movie.
Edit: Oh, right. Welcome to: "Don't believe anything you read on the internet" Day. Wonder if the menstrual blood email is the same thing?
Edit2: I guess I should probably mention this link is NSFW, if you happen to be surfing the internet at your job.

It could be an april fool's thing... though it's not thaaat dissimilar from existing things that I won't link to or post pictures of since this is a family show, or something. Well, except for the cigarette dispenser, I assume.
Somewhat relatedly, google's 4/1 things tend to be cute:

It was cute, but I didn't find it funny at all. Maybe that's how it should be, it's supposed to be at least remotely believable so that people will be fooled.
I think Wizards of the Coast outdid themselves this year, but you have to be a fan of both Penny Arcade and D&D to be amused by it. Blizzard was pretty terrible. Didn't really see anything else noteworthy.

I remember a time in my childhood where people tried to prank each other on April 1st. Same point as any holiday, I suppose, but I don't know what the origin of it is. Wikipedia probably does.
