It was part of the whole quirkiness, but it got grabbed and turned into a meme and quoted in every time of context. I honestly don't understand that at all. It's like, I personally love Catburry's cream eggs, but I wouldn't eat them at every meal.

I guess your problem must be either that you don't like memes in general, or just 'overused' ones. I don't laugh every time I hear it, but I see it more as a quote, and quotes don't necessarily become worse if they're quoted very often. They become less original, that's for sure, and I guess they get annoying if you really see them ALL THE TIME, but I'm fine with them because they're usually quoted in context. So I totally understand that some people grow tired of them, but I hope I made enough sense to explain why not everyone is getting tired of them (namely, that quotes do not tire ME in this way... now if we were talking about a piece of music that would be a different thing.).

Gamers are generally more intelligent than the average person, I actually feel insulted at how bad and obvious most April Fools jokes coming out of gaming websites are.

I think we gamers have our fair share of stupidity too.

However, this is quite off topic now so any further discussion on the proliferation of stupidity should be done in a separate thread.
