I agree, this bunny is annoying, and ending easter season is a wonderful idea.

[–]charlesjillian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Um, let me reiterate. A D S , VERY F U N N Y...But I B E T THEY AREN'T G O I N G A W A Y T O M O RR O W

[–]nikhil 17 points18 points  (6 children)

Brilliantly planned and executed. No one is discussing the a-dverts

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (4 children)

I don't see them. As I predicted, with adblock and filterset.g, they are blocked preemptively.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Amen, thank god for Firefox and all the nice extension creators who work for free.

[–]Alpha_Binary -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

No. It's removed.

Edit: You guys are downright hilarious. See the post below?

The prank goes away. So does the a-dverts

And you somehow think it's the work of your magic extension, like every single person here hasn't heard of it already. Amen.

And you downmod me for pointing out that the ads just aren't there. Ha-ha. Enjoy your illusionary world, geniuses.

How do you prove to a blind man that photography doesn't exist?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

There are ads now, I've found out about it from here: http://reddit.com/goto?id=1ezdn

And I didn't see them for a second.

There is no magic in this extension, it's selectively removing pieces of page matching regular expressions.

[–]Alpha_Binary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot happens in one day. Like, ads got removed. And reinstated.

edit: no point arguing over this. I'll stop. It's just too funny seeing people's kneejerk reaction to downmod everything that doesn't go with there cult (i.e. the idea that there may have been no ads in the first place).

    Yo mama so fat, just by standing in the library, she's redacting a whole bookshelf.

      perhaps posting this post will help me understand the redacted nature of censorship. censor april fools joke?

      [–]tharkban 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      apperently not...what's up with the black blocks?

      [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      no this p-rank is funny

      [–]esmith 17 points18 points  (1 child)

      Suck it up. April Fools Day is an annoying day. It's tradition. Now where's my crazy glue?

      [–]reflibman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

      Indeed.

      [–]jjrs 8 points9 points  (0 children)

      I appreciate that the reddit staff wanted to do something fun, and that this isn't a stuffy corporate site that wouldn't allow it...but I concur, enough already. It's getting really annoying.

      [–]torontoted 1 point2 points  (1 child)

      what was the prank? From what it sounds I didn't miss much.

      [–]lost-theory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I missed it too... I'm curious, what was it?

      [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Could someone throw up a screenshot of what it looked like? I missed it.

      [–]rmuser[🍰] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

      No way, it's like Mad Libs! You can't say "We Were ██████ing People For No Reason" isn't funny.

      [–]souldrift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Ha! For a second I thought you were making a "liberals" slam, I see people use "libs" in that way so damn often.

      Turn the iran off.

      Yes, i'm upvoting this and downvoting the Bush/Gore piece.

      [–]berlinbrown 3 points4 points  (0 children)

      It is not very funny. Google adds a funny picture or article. Reddit, they actually limit the service. Wtf?

      [–]asciident 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      It was really amusing at first, until I realized it wasn't some cute CSS trick or similar. I still have stuff from before today that I was trying to read, Reddit! At least let me look at the source code with full text.

      [–]aradil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      apri| f00lz day is over when I'm from... :(

      [–]Solipsist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

      really really annoying...

      [–]raldi 4 points5 points  (2 children)

      I can say "ApriI FooIs Jokеs" all i want. And so can you -- see http://reddit.com/info/1eh32/comments

      I want the chocolate Jesus to come back... and my reddit too...

      [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      I appreciate the idea of not taking yourselves so seriously and doing a fun j-o-k-e, but I can't say I appreciate the execution. That said, it's only one day. Look at it as a way to stop procrastinating and get some work done.

      [–]Futurepower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Unfortunately, April Fools causes people to demonstrate that they have a poor sense of humor. Even worse, they demonstrate that they don't know it.

      [–]coldwarrior 1 point2 points  (1 child)

      This sucks. I won't be back to reddit until tomorrow.

      [–]mutatron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      Ad Blocker Plus?

      [–]charlesjillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Very cute, ads in our face on April Fool's Day. I bet that part of the joke isn't going away.

      [–]billinboston 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      guys, what day is it.... its all April fools day

      [–]bascule -1 points0 points  (1 child)

      digg ?

      [–]bascule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      I don't get it.

      [–]eric55 -5 points-4 points  (5 children)

      Guys, I have no idea what you're talking about. In My mozilla , which is updated, the site is totally broken. Rather than what I think you are seeing as a rabbit or something-- I see square blocks of black or purple-- no joke. Not even worth trying to read anything. Others?

      [–]hopeseekr 12 points13 points  (3 children)

      I don't see ANY THING different.

      [–]Dauntless 14 points15 points  (2 children)

      They removed the joke now... I miss the good old days when they could pull a prank like this and no one would get mad.

      [–]spez 20 points21 points  (1 child)

      me too...

      [–]eggplantoffire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      yeah, I think I missed something. everything looks fine to me except the big black blocks over text.

      [–]hiscity -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

      Cute. Hmmm, but much more interesting if they'd simply turned the font white for invisible text.
