Thank Christ for that!
Thank god...its over.
Well, that was a thing.
Aww, it seems like it just started:(
worst april fools ever. I'll miss you T.
DON'T GO. WE NEED YOU!
I don't understand. Who is leaving?
A joke that was played too long!
Next time get the hoff! and lets keep it to a couple of posts
I was hoping you would rename the site T-Modo.
Goodbye Mr. T! SIGH....hope to see you again sometime soon! (wipes a tear off the corner of the eye)
@Brian Sexton:
and have T-Mobile sue yet another tech blog? Don't tempt them!
By the way, the Mr. T thing was like an SLN sketch. I need not explain further.
@pradster: Next time, stop reading.
I woke up and saw that MR. T had moved on... It was like the opposite of Christmas.
*SIGH*
Good job Giz. 4.01.08 shall be remembered by all.
I loved International Talk Like Mr. T. Day.v1. It was a lot of fun, mixed in with the serious gadgets. Maybe next year use Hugh Hefner or William Shatner and they wont complain. We'll miss you B.A.
It could have been worse.. like Mr. T's complete heterosexual opposite (maybe) Richard Simmons.. thank christ. Maybe next year Gizmo?
I thought it was hilarious... and much better than fake news.
It was great Gizmodo.
Lots of fun, and watching the whiners whine in protest?
Priceless.
As we watch Mr. T ride off into the sunset in his black van with a red energy stripe, I can't help but wave good-bye in thanks, for the lessons learned, the respect respected, and the good times had.
And especially for taking the time out from being guest editor to get me out of that jam yesterday afternoon when the local sheriff was trying to frame me for murder. How they found the parts to build that pneumatic tunneling device I'll never know.
Stay in milk Mr. T....stay in milk.
*sob* I'll miss you.
@Jesus Diaz: Jesus is vengeful, don't think I've ever seen him tell so many people to piss off...
I can't stop laughing at that little T pic...If I had a kid, we'd be T and Little T for halloween. Maybe I can 'borrow' someone's kid.
Thanks fer makin' me burfday speshul! 'Twas fuN!
Thanks, Giz. I couldn't read any articles yesterday because of that shit.
I thought it was a great idea. And it made my day a little more enjoyable.
Rumor has it, Chuck is stepping in to replace T... hmmm
I think Mr. T needs to make a cameo on Giz throughout the year, just to keep us in-line. We sometimes forget to respect our Mamas, and a little reminder would be good for us fools.
Bye Mr. T! I'll miss you!
Man, today at work is going to suck without Mr. T.
Mr. T gave me a headache, but I respect the effort. No better 4/1 idea immediately comes to mind. Writing in piglatin or valley girl would have probably been more annoying. Maybe we should put it to a vote. T = good or T = heinous?
The best part about Mr. T day? All the people who complained about Mr. T.
For my April Fools, I emailed the whole family and told them we were having another baby. (I have an 11yo, 7yo, and 4yo already)
Well played, Gizmodo.
I still have a question: What was Mr. T?
God you people whine. This was actually pretty frickin' funny...and it was only 1 DAY OUT OF THE YEAR.
Unless...Hannibal or Murdock get THEIR own day too...
@faabshaam: lmao that's a great prank!
They had to write it all, we just had to read it. I think we got the better end of the deal. Is anyone on the staff going to take the credit (responsibility) for the idea?
Honestly the MR. T thing was the most annoying thing ive ever seen. Some of them were hilarious, but mostly just annoying. Im glad the Giz is back to its normal self. Never again gizmodo....never again.
Bravo, it was funny! Keeping the tech industry news funny is why I come back every day.
@strider_mt2k:
I'll pass you some Charmin for your nose.....
...I missed Mr. T day?
*cries*
