We're all in need of a good laugh these days, and April Fools' Day was here for us. April 1 is always devoted to jokes and pranks, and plenty of companies tried their hand at generating giggles this year. Here are some of the funniest, goofiest entries for 2022, so get ready for a little comic relief.

Twitter edit button

— Twitter (@Twitter)




















Twitter: where you need to triple-check your missives before you unleash them on the internet. Twitter dropped a simple seven-word statement on April Fools' Day and it's the kind of thing calculated to throw users into a frenzy. "We are working on an edit button," the company tweeted from its official account. Sure, Twitter. But we know what day it is.

— Synology Inc. (@Synology)





















If you like your April Fools' Day with a side of computing nostalgia, you'll enjoy Synology's concept for a FloppyStation said to offer speed, power and efficiency. Forget all this newfangled technology. It's time to go back to the past.

Moosejaw VoxDoc






















Protect the forest. Pee in a can.

Busch Light



Beer brand Busch Light combined April Fools' with upcoming Earth Day for a real product called the [url=]Pee in a Busch Kit. The idea is to convince beer drinkers to pee into empty cans that can then be disposed of, rather than urinate on trees. When lots of campers pee on trees, it can have a negative impact on the environment. Available in black or blue for $20, the kit includes a pee funnel, a carrying case and can lids to keep you from accidentally drinking the used containers. Proceeds go to , an organization focused on reforestation.

National Trust live action paintings





Curators at Upton House in Warwickshire have found a novel solution to a unique conservation challenge.

— National Trust (@nationaltrust)





















The UK's National Trust introduced a new way to connect historic-home visitors to art. When artworks are taken off display for conservation, the Live Action program replaces them with people dressed and posed as the paintings. A delightful video details the program and shows examples of some reenactments. 

Dordle gets obscure



Thanks a lot, Dordle.

[url=]Dordle, a five-letter guess-the-word game times two, is a popular second stop after completing the daily Wordle. Dordle went rogue for April Fools'. Sorry about the spoilers, but one word was "prank" and the other "hapax." Yes, hapax. Look it up to find out why it was such an appropriate choice.

The Meat Sweats: a well-marbled roll-on perspirant with powerful 24-hour non-protection. Available in 3 scents: Original Beef; Lighter Fluid; and Mesquite.
— Omaha Steaks (@OmahaSteaks) [url=]April 1, 2022





















This is exactly what it sounds like. Meat company (that's not a typo) that will give you the meat sweats in scents of original beef, lighter fluid and mesquite. It's not about stopping the sweat, it's about embracing it with your armpits.

Traeger Grills Weed Pellets

There's no reason you should have to leave your passion for making fresh baked bread behind in the kitchen when you go out. King Arthur, famous for its flours, created cozy-looking [url=]Multigrain Mittens, saying they can be "gently toasted for extra warmth or frozen for long-term storage."

Budweiser Budbnb

— Budweiser (@budweiserusa) [url=]April 1, 2022





















If you like Bud's famous Clydesdale horses, then you'll love spending a night in their hay-filled stables. Budweiser joked about offering a $1,876-per-night stay in with access to a fully stocked bar. Actually, I think I would be down to try it.

Dion's pizza raw carrot topping





You asked, we answered! Carrots, now available as a topping at all NM locations. [url=]pic.twitter.com/1hSJaE0WgG
— Dion's (@DionsPizza)





















New Mexico, represent. Regional pizza chain Dion's sliced up some carrots and put them on a piece of pizza to create an unholy salad-pie hybrid for April Fools'. It's a simple but effective joke. It also sneakily references a [url=]viral map image that circulated earlier in the year claiming New Mexico's favorite pizza topping is carrots. It's actually green chile, silly map people.

Canadian Space Agency merch





What if we launch a new line of products available today only?

Any recommendations for more items? We know how creative you are! _
— Canadian Space Agency (@csa_asc) [url=]April 1, 2022





















CSA might not have quite the same high profile as NASA, but it's got the power of Canadian humor on its side. The space agency , including a hat that says, "The cold and darkness of space doesn't scare us. We have winter." and a T-shirt reading "Just like NASA. But in Canada. And smaller."

Big changes to our forecast pages! To avoid any confusion between °F and °C, we've converted all of our temperatures to Kelvin. Enjoy! [url=]pic.twitter.com/m1qCmjXVZ2
— National Weather Service (@NWS)





















The US National Weather Service has had to walk the line with temperatures, giving people options for both Fahrenheit and Celsius. On April Fools' Day, the NWS finally had enough and [url=]joked it would convert all temperatures to Kelvin to avoid confusion. That means the forecast for Friday in Indianapolis is for a high of 281 Kelvin. Enjoy your day.

Little Tikes My First Cubicle



Your first cubicle, but not your last. Sob/laugh.

Little Tikes



Toy brand Little Tikes figured youngsters should go ahead and start preparing for future office jobs with the play set. Complete with water cooler, a donut, a computer and a "hang in there" cat poster, the joke is hilarious with an edge of darkness. 

7-Eleven Tiny Gulp





Meet Tiny Gulp. At just 0.7 ounces, it's the perfect little sip for only 7 cents. Visit any 7-ELEVEn to meet the newest member of the Gulp Family today. [url=]pic.twitter.com/sVsVw0gi9O
— 7-ELEVEn (@7eleven)





















Convenience store chain 7-Eleven has long catered to the American thirst for oversized portions with the Big Gulp, an obscenely large serving of soda. For Friday, the company went to the other extreme with the [url=]Tiny Gulp, a mere 0.7 ounces of fizzy, sugary beverage. It's better for your health.

Formlabs Form 2D printer















































Emirates airline decided to one-up local food delivery services like DoorDash and UberEats with [url=]EmirEats, a global food delivery option via aircraft. It's a beautiful dream.

Sun-Maid grape jerky






















Ugh.

Hellmann's



Food jokes are always popular on April Fools' Day. Mayonnaise brand Hellmann's decided it would create an evil thought experiment by offering up the idea of Butterfinger Mayo, an unholy concoction that combines the egg and oil-based condiment with Butterfinger chocolate-and-peanut-butter candy bars. "a new crispety crunchety twist to your favorite mayo."

In case this combination makes you think "yum," Hellmann's has released a [url=]real recipe for Butterfinger cake that uses mayo (which is a legitimate secret ingredient for making moist cakes). 

Reddit r/place



Reddit's original r/place experiment delivered a unique, collaborative piece of art.

isn't really an April Fools' joke. It's a collaborative art project that happens to take place on April Fools' Day. Reddit first ran the experiment in 2017. Over a million Reddit users placed about 16 million tiles onto a digital canvas. "The original [url=]r/place was created to explore a piece of humanity -- to examine what happens when a person doing something affects a collective," . "Specifically, what happens if you only let an individual place one tile at a time, so that they must work with others to build together on a massive [url=https://soundcloud.com/lanayadose?]kumpulan situs judi qq online terpercaya 2020 cooperative canvas." So get ready to art for April Fools'. 

Tushy It Takes #2






















Really really really really regency retro hard seltzer.

Bud Light



Bud Light's image is usually one of kicking back with friends and watching sports, but the brand went in a more historic direction for April Fools'. The is aimed at Bridgerton fans who enjoy some regency romance. The fake flavors include afternoon tea, courtship cocktail, queen cake and duke delight.

Let Lessons.com.au help you explain this whole confusing NFT thing.

Online learning provider Lessons.com.au came out with a free, timely guide for [url=]how to explain NFTs to your elderly relatives. The units of study actually sound pretty handy with names like "Imagine if you could right-click the Mona Lisa" and "It's like Facebook, but also not." I think I might actually understand NFTs now.

We'll update this post as April Fools' Day jokes appear, so check back for the latest developments.
