https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day_Request_for_Comments had some fun stuff relative to today, but then I saw this...
http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/
"11 years ago, April 1st 1990, rfc 1149 was written. This rfc specifies a protocol for IP over avian carriers, CPIP (carrier pigeon internet protocol). In 11 years, noone has bothered to implement this important protocol stack. But happily, we don't need to wait any longer! BLUG in cooperation with Vesta Brevdueforening has given you rfc 1149 support for Linux."

RFC 1149 was implemented later on: http://www.stuff.co.nz/oddstuff/2851526/Pigeon-post-faster-than-internet
This is one reason why most networking/computer humor is better seen than stated. Such as:
Knock knock.
Who's there?

I like the UDP one.
Knock knock
Who dare?
UDP
UDP who?
I never said it was funny. I just like it.
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY ARP JOKES? PLEASE TELL 67.76.32.131.
OP does the traffic actually go through an actual pidgeon or what? Just wondering why it takes over 70 days for an ICMP RTT.
BTW, the "threshold" for VOIP is 300ms RTT maximum, so this wouldn't be suitable for VOIP, FYI.
:partay:
HEY EVERYONE I HAVE A GRATUITOUS ARP JOKE!
what does the network seal say??

May I see your machine certificate?
Ummm... no, you're supposed to say "Banana who?"

Hey, why am I in a tiny padded cell with a note that I need to download the latest antivirus patch before I log on to the guest network?
You lot are crazy.

The worst thing about UDP jokes... you never know if someone "gets" them.

As the sender of the UDP joke I don't care if anyone gets them either.

That's as old as RFC #1

I'd be more impressed if it was all animated GIFs.
That's a good idea.
Can I get an estimation of the time required? Then I'll consider it.
:problem?:
We should probably crowdsource this project.
..and I had the mandatory .gif image to use, but it was too big to upload :(
