You know, I think some April Fool's pranks are okay! Like the silly ones they do on websites or the really good natured kind. But I am LESS okay with someone changing the ENTIRE layout of our entire building and giving us treasure maps to go around it which for the record my brother-in-law did and it's a pain!! There's some weird effects coming in from outside this planet at the moment, although they'll mostly miss the city itself. There'll be a localized temporal storm, but it shouldn't be more than a mild irritation. It looks like it's just going to yank some things around and send them on through. I think Maurice is going to call out sick that day, or if I were him I definitely would. Hey, I kind of want a four-leaf clover. I know that's more last month than this month, but still. If you find one, pass it along. Also, I want to do a cutesy April Fools thing, so don't get too mad! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated For the remainder of the day all users will have their userpic replaced with a picture of them dressed as their favorite animal. It's pretty harmless as far as pranks go, and it will change back either at midnight or after trying to change the picture twice, prompting an "Are you sure?" message but no further ill effects.

It takes too long? How's your signal strength?

[thexiv]

Signal very strong

Signal change loading?

[floret]

Of course! I mean, Retrospec is pretty image-heavy... if the wifi kept going out or something, then it'd be hard to load it, right?
But I guess that's not the problem if you have good connectivity...

People say my phone is old.

Would that be a reason?

[floret]

Oh, I guess it could be. There was that thing recently where they said they slow down iPhones after a couple years or whatever...
How old is your phone?

[thexiv]

5 years with me.

But made in 2000.

[floret]

Your phone's old enough to vote!!

[thexiv]

Yes

Good phone though. Calls are good. Snake is fun.

How did you even get it?
Were you like walking down the street one day, and a guy in a trench coat beckoned to you from an alley? And when you went over to see what he wanted, he showed you that the entire inside of his coat was lined with Y2K cell phones?

[thexiv]

No

Goodwill. At bottom of bargain bin. 50cent for it. Very happy

Respect ...
I'm really surprised it can access this app at all.
I mean, you don't have a data plan, right?
