at least not comic sans, because we are a fortune 500 website and don't do comic sans

Your names, and mine while we're at it, have a new meaning now in Croatian.
We are all females and some of us have names only very old and probably butch woman would have here in Croatia. 
I am laughing my ass off  ;D

There are a couple of Simpsons quotes that run through my head every now and then. This is certainly one of them.

The last time I remember was when I was driving to southern california and I passed by a large cow-processing facility, also known as a "ranch." It smelled... awful, and quickly I rolled up the windows.

Unfortunately, the smell was so thick and awful, that after I rolled up the windows it just stayed with me in the car, and it was like I hadn't rolled down the windows at all.

And of course, Radioactive Man's voice chirped up in my head, "The windows! They do nothing!"

Glad that some of you could get a chuckle out of it. Apologies to those who were confused and annoyed. But I was told the other day that we can't "please absolutely everyone", so... happy Non-April Fools day everyone - it's over, you made it!

Haha! This rings a bell. My eyes can relax now. Mind you, in the post where I was writing about ticket prices in the UK Tour thread, it still says "The Maths", it hasn't reverted to The Chems. Perhaps because I was posting/editing at the same time you inflicted(!) that theme on us. Maybe it permanently confused the forum?

I did like some of the changes to the lyric banner on the front page. "Hey Boy" became "Hey XY" (ah, Chromosomes, very clever). There was another good one but I can't remember what it was now...(no don't bother switching that theme back on Csar, thank you.)

Perhaps this could be a reason. I used the built-in "censor" option to change the words. Apparently, it would also affect link names. Maybe some would not revert back to its original form when they're edited like I did with rynostar's link yesterday. I'll go and check.

Thanks for noticing, took a bit to come up with mathy terms. You can still go back and switch it on yourself if you'd like to treat yourself to some fancy pink and handwritten fonts  :D . It's selectable.
My personal favourite was Pi Is Sweet and Just Get Yourself Pi.

I am so sorry to have missed this. Moving forward, this will be a mandatory stop for me on the first of April.
