Fandom Lounge's Journal - Day

Most people have probably seen it, hell, it may have been posted here, but this clip of John Barrowman singing the Dr. Who theme (with Tennant providing the background) on The Weakest Link still makes me nearly crack a rib laughing.

I love collecting the joke sites that go up on April 1st.

So far the only one I've seen is Girl Wonder went pink. And girly. There's a poll about boys. It hurts my poor head!

Especially fun - someone asked if the site got hacked. *grin*

So, where else has gone nutty for April the oneth?

Sorry for the double post, but some things you just don't ETA.

Student punished for spaghetti beliefs.

A student has been suspended from school in America for coming to class dressed as a pirate.

But the disciplinary action has provoked controversy – because the student says that the ban violates his rights, as the pirate costume is part of his religion.

Bryan Killian says that he follows the Pastafarian religion, and that as a crucial part of his faith, he must wear 'full pirate regalia' as prescribed in the holy texts of Pastafarianism.

Go read the whole thing, if only for the ending.

(Did I tell you I was fired over Talk like a Pirate Day? I refused to take off my pirate hat, they said "take it off or go home" I said "If I go home, I'm not coming back" they said "Okay!" Man, that job sucked. Lawyers have no sense of humour.)
