Psychosis Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Yea, the way it was written and the date it was posted...I'll see you tomorrow to confirm/deny a Coralline Clam. I mean, right off the Solomon islands? Bull. Link to comment
Griever Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Hmmm. Nothing else they've posted today looks like a joke, and there's nothing in the metadata or page source to indicate that it's a hoax. Pretty sure it's bad form to not include at least one or two hints that something's a joke on April 1st. Maybe it is true? Link to comment
