Today feels like a good day for violent Mario parodies. First there was Pete Holmes' silly "realistic Mario" sketch, and now here's Dorkly crossing the Mushroom Kingdom with Telltale's The Walking Dead. The results are kind of amazing.

Wonderful prank turns waitress' shift into the best day of her life
by Jesus Diaz on Sploid, shared by Jesus Diaz to Gizmodo
Instead of coming up with idiotic ideas, perhaps all the dumb companies trying to push their stupid April Fools' Day "jokes" down our throats should start making some actually awesome pranks. Like this one, played on young waitress Chelsea Roff, who basically got her shift turned into the best day of her life.

Even More Reasons To Be Glad Google Isn't a Real Guy
by Ashley Feinberg
Let's face it: There's no one in the world who knows you quite as well as Google does. It's the only place we'll get truly, uncomfortably intimate, revealing every bodily function, personal secret, bizarre question, and government-watch-list-worthy keyword. Now imagine if, instead of an inanimate website, we were dishing all that out to some dude in a cubicle.

Life in Grand Theft Auto Sure Is Hell for NPCs
by Evan Narcisse
You live in a big, crazy metropolis. You're going down the street for groceries or to meet some friends for a drink. Then a dude runs down the street, yanks an old lady out of her car and starts shooting stuff up. This keeps happening. All the time. What the hell?!

What Searches Look Like With the Top Million Sites Removed
by Andrew Liszewski
At this point it's ludicrous to think of using any other search engine than Google. But while it's very effective, you'll find your search results coming from many of the web's top sites again and again. What if you wanted to find something a little more eclectic? Well, a new search engine called Million Short offers just that by letting you ignore the top million websites on the internet.
