These DJs are in hot water after telling their listeners on April 1st that 'dihydrogen monoxide' was coming out of their taps. Dihydrogen monoxide is water, but listeners who didn't know that grew very concerned

Florida schools strike again.

[Da Coyote]

So the DJs have to pay for the knowledge of our public school grads?

Had they perped the standard “climate change” bull-Obama, they’d have been honored.

[C210N]

Spelling! It’s “Floriduh”

[dfwgator]

I thought everyone knew the perils of DHMO.

[cripplecreek]

Yeah, the water is chock full o stupid.

[svcw]

WTH?
If people are that stupid, why should the DJs be punished.

The DJs got suspended! GD idiots are running the asylum.

[Steve0113]

You can’t do pranks like this when the majority are fools.

[Cyber Liberty]

The radio station has a poll on the page about reinstating the DJs, and 80% of the morons say “Never!” WTF is the matter with these retards?

[chris37]

OH NOES!

They scared the stupids by telling them that H2O is water!?!?!

If only someone had taught them what those complicated prefixes meant in grammar school science!

My favorite April Fools Day radio broadcast occurred back in the 1980’s. I tuned in to KRLA, the old rock blaster, not the present-day conservative chatterbox, and almost went into shock. They were playing songs, running ads, and even doing news broadcasts and weather reports from April 1, 1963. I remember what I was doing on April 1, 1963 and what the weather was like (it rained), and the broadcast was spot-on. I momentarily thought I had traveled through a time warp.

I prefer: hydroxylic acid. It sounds even scarier.

Some jokes you should never do an April 1st.

1. Tell your spouse you want a divorce.
2. Tell your mom you have terminal cancer.
3. Tel your kid he’s adopted
4. Tell someone with terminal cancer that the doctor called and said it’s cured.
5. Tell your kids that their grandpa just died of a heart attack

A talk radio station here in the Peoples Republic of Maryland were discussing legislation introduced to enact a tax on pets of 50 cents per pound every two years.

If was a gag, but I’m certain it will be introduced next year by the liberal morons in the General Asylum.

Back in the 70's, a rock station and a country station in my hometown switched formats for the morning, from 6:00 AM to noon. There was no explanation, no announcement. They just started broadcasting the other station's playlist.

Some listeners went ballistic.

Pretty funny. The announcers should be commended for their creativity. Apparently they have a significant number of low information listeners.
