You so clever, Google.
Every year, Google puts out a strong showing for April Fool’s Day. This year, one of their YouTube April Fool’s Day jokes is actually pretty darn well put together, even from a pseudo-artistic perspective.
Watch the video first, then look below to see the modern-day references to 4 of the 5 video memes. I’m still not sure what “Swing Flummox” refers to but I’m sure someone will let me know in the comments:
#5 – “The Irksome Citrus” – “The Annoying Orange”
#4 – “Buggy Intruder” = “Bed Intruder Song”
#3 – “Swing Flummox”= JD is flummoxed
#2 – “Horse & Buggy Crash” (aka “Ruth Roll’d) = Rickroll (which I cannot link to as it would break the site and a vow we made long ago)
#1 – “Flugelhorn Feline” = “Keyboard Cat”
Well played, YouTube and Google.
