    Urgent Announcement:

    Have you committed a crime? Are you currently unlawfully at large? Read this:

    From today, any offenders who hand themselves in to Police, will not face conviction due to a new Government initiative to reduce crime levels.

    "The Adults Potential Rehabilitation Initiative for Long-term Forfeiture Of Offences for Life Scheme is running for a very limited time trial and we encourage offenders to take advantage of it today," a Home Office spokesman said.

    If you report to your local station, quote the offence you're wanted for and "UKCH status 12."

    Please SHARE this status as far and wide as you possibly can as the results of this pilot are eagerly anticipated.

    Thank you!

    Youtube is already owned by Google. There is absolutely no way this would be possible. For April Fools jokes to be funny, they have to be somewhat believable :p

    Google got hated by many people, because of bad design and Google+
    So they sayd they where searching for one who ones to own Youtube.

    Facebook responsed to that quickly and the bought it today for a special,
    exlusive low price. (Thats what Facbook owner Mark Zuckerberg said today in an exclusive interview)

    BeamNG devs are planning to replace all cars and maps with the Race Update ones. They said that the current ones are "too unstable".
    Cars that will be removed: Ibishu Covet, Civetta Bolide, Gavril D15, Gavril Grand Marshall, Gavril H-Series, Bruckell Moonhawk.
    Maps that will be removed: Cliff, Derby Arenas, Dry Rock Island, Grid Pure, Grid Map, Industrial Site, Small Island USA.
    Cars that will be in the game after the Race Update: Gavril T75, Ibishu Pigeon.
    Maps that will be in the game after the Race Update: East Coast USA.
    Devs are also cancelling development of all WIP cars and they will put a lot of effort into removing all BeamNG mods from the Internet.
    Edit:
    It was a condition of a purchase of their company by Google for 1 billion $.

    Today in band at school, the first flute (a girl) swapped places and instruments with the second saxophone (on the other side of the room, and a guy with red hair). Our teacher didn't notice until the last 5 minutes of class. Unfortunately, it was right before the song with a flute solo. Somehow, the flute player managed to play the sax pretty well except one note. What was really hilarious is that our teacher walked within feet of the sax player multiple times, and looked at the flute player. And didn't notice.

    I haven't seen any pranks, besides when I got hit in the nuts in homeroom as a "prank".

    Anyone who goes to Imgur (Better than Reddit in my opinion) knows about the Viralizer which basically generates a comment for you. Sometimes it makes no sense, sometimes it's perfect.
