Happy April Fools’ Day 2025
Google Introduces ‘Talk to Your Toaster’ Feature Tech giant Google announced the launch of a new AI-powered feature: “Google Toast GPT,” a voice-controlled assistant embedded in toasters. “Now, you can have deep conversations with your breakfast appliance,” said a company spokesperson. Users were encouraged to ask their toasters philosophical questions, such as, “What’s the meaning of bread?” and “Is burnt toast a sign of bad luck?” As expected, thousands tried talking to their toasters, only to receive nothing but silence and perfectly crisped bread.
McDonald’s Unveils ‘Mc Pickle’ Burger Fast-food lovers were in for a surprise when McDonald’s announced its latest menu item: the Mc Pickle, a burger made entirely of pickles, with no meat, cheese, or bun. The viral advertisement showed delighted customers taking giant bites of a stack of pickles, leading to an internet frenzy. Some die-hard pickle fans demanded that the Mc Pickle be made real, while others vowed never to trust McDonald’s marketing team again.
NASA Discovers ‘Moon Moose’In an out-of-this-world prank, NASA revealed that a mysterious creature had been spotted on the Moon—nicknamed the “Moon Moose.” The space agency released a blurry image of what appeared to be an antlered creature floating above the lunar surface. “This changes everything,” said one (obviously fake) NASA scientist. Social media exploded with speculation, with some users claiming the Moon Moose was proof of extraterrestrial life, while others insisted it was just a clever AI-generated joke.
Elon Musk Sells ‘Tesla Air’—A Car That Runs on Oxygen Elon Musk, never one to miss a good prank, took to Twitter to announce Tesla’s latest revolutionary product: Tesla Air, a vehicle that runs entirely on the air you breathe. “No charging required—just inhale and drive!” Musk wrote. Many fans were intrigued, while sceptics quickly pointed out the absurdity. The billionaire later followed up with, “Gotcha! But hey, give me a few years, and who knows?”
The UK Bans Tea in Favour of Coffee British citizens woke up to shocking news: the UK government had decided to replace tea with coffee as the national drink. A ‘government-issued statement’ claimed that research had proven coffee to be superior, leading to the nationwide ban on tea. Outraged Brits took to social media to express their horror, with one Twitter user saying, “You can take our taxes, but you will NEVER take our tea!” Fortunately, the news turned out to be nothing more than an elaborate prank by a British tabloid.
Pet Cats to Be Taught to Bark Animal lovers were both amused and bewildered when a viral news article claimed that scientists had developed a way to teach cats to bark like dogs. “By using a new soundwave technology, we can help felines communicate in a whole new way,” the report stated. While some people excitedly imagined a world where their cats could finally scare off burglars, others suspected their sneaky tabby was behind this joke all along.
The World Falls for the Oldest Trick in the Book Of course, April Fools’ Day 2025 wouldn’t be complete without the classic pranks—plastic-wrapped toilet seats, fake lottery wins, and office workers returning to find their desks covered in aluminium foil. One unfortunate boss in New York fell for the infamous “glue-on-the-chair” trick, leading to an emergency (and hilarious) extraction process that made headlines in the company’s internal newsletter.
As the day comes to an end, the world can breathe a sigh of relief—until next year, when we all inevitably fall for the next batch of ridiculous pranks. Until then, stay sceptical and don’t believe everything you read! Click here for more info.
