Thanks again for everything.
APRIL FOOLS

APRIL FOOLS
Come on now…you think I could really give up GMMR? Nah.
One thing is true. I have been having MAJOR internet issues and they haven’t ended. If you live in the North East and are considering Comcast - don’t!! Actually run in the opposite direction.
I’m going to be online this week, but PLEASE be patient with me until I can get things back to normal. With my lack of online time late lst week I really have to concentrate on catching up with my real job - please understand. I’ll be back posting tomorrow, and I really hope that you guys will be here with your witty comments - they keep me going during the day - you have no idea how much!!
So thank again for your patience and support. Sorry for the April Fool’s Day joke.
P.S. Someone posted over at TWOP that Rashida Jones’s new pilot was nixed and that she was just signed on to The Office as a series regular. Talk about a sick April Fool’s Day joke…I’m still shaking.
Did you play any April Fool’s Day pranks…or were any pulled on you? Share, share, share!!
April 1st, 2007 at 1:43 pm
Whew! You juuuuust about had me, then I remembered what day it was.
Didn’t play or get played today (except by you). Of course, the day isn’t over yet. 
April 1st, 2007 at 1:50 pm
ah, you totally got me. and i was REALLY sad for a sec there. : )
April 1st, 2007 at 1:57 pm
DUDE that was NOT funny. April Fools Day is all fun and games until someone loses their favorite website. I’m mad at you.
April 1st, 2007 at 1:58 pm
Don’t do that!!!
that was a good joke though! You almost had me!
April 1st, 2007 at 1:59 pm
I saw this on my RSS reader and completely freaked out. What would I do without GMMR?
Thanks
April 1st, 2007 at 2:15 pm
OMG i just freaked out. I think I would rather have Rashida back as a series regular than GMMR go away forever.
April 1st, 2007 at 2:19 pm
Really glad I clicked the “More…”.
I about freaked out there.
April 1st, 2007 at 2:23 pm
omg omg omg omg omg omg omg.
you totally totally got me.
wow.
i freaked out i freaked out.
im still freaking outt!
can you tell?
April 1st, 2007 at 2:28 pm
I hate this holiday. You got me so good.
April 1st, 2007 at 2:32 pm
Aww, you freaked my freak! I totally fell for it! When I read the little blurp on the home page I literally screamed “WHAT??” and my fiancee looked at me like I was crazy…Thank God it was a joke…a cruel cruel joke…
April 1st, 2007 at 2:32 pm
Heather B - I’m glad that you enjoy GMMR so much, but let’s not be crazy. If Greg Daniels called me today and said that Karen Fillipelli would be gone for good if i agreed to shut down GMMR I must just do it (I’m a giver). of course I would make him promise that (a) Jim and Pam would live happily ever after (b) the show would move to HBO so we got to see first hand just how happy Jim could make Pam…ha ha ha
April 1st, 2007 at 2:35 pm
Wow………for a few seconds I was absolutely horrified that I would never be able to turn to GMMR for my Office fix………..take as long as you need to catch up with work, just as long as you don’t leave us forever!
April 1st, 2007 at 2:36 pm
I believed you! *shakes fist at Kath*
I live in the Boston area and I don’t think we have very many other choices besides Comcast. I mean, they have a freakin’ monopoly. Anyway, g’luck with your Internet!
April 1st, 2007 at 3:42 pm
Whew, that was a close one. Don’t do that.
April 1st, 2007 at 4:10 pm
I completely forgot what day it is! You got me. The fiance and I decided to not do any jokes…I hate it…I believe EVERYTHING!
April 1st, 2007 at 4:32 pm
I forgot about the date, but I didn’t think the internet issue thing made too much sense, since you said you also need it for you work. But your delivery, thanking everyone and such, was perfect.
April 1st, 2007 at 4:54 pm
You had me for a minute. I was surprised.
April 1st, 2007 at 4:59 pm
So. Not. Funny. I totally bought it-and was about to be all ferclempt. Like my favorite hangout was closing. So sad.
April 1st, 2007 at 5:22 pm
I was SO fished in! Damn tricksy RSS reader! I’m glad to hear that GMMR will keep on truckin’. It’s one of my favorite daily reads.
This Greater Boston area reader uses Verizon DSL and knock wood, the service has been great. Just sayin’.
April 1st, 2007 at 5:33 pm
Haha, I was just like “uhhh, where will I get all my office related news from?” then I did a serious re-evaluation of my office obsession and wondered if it was healthy or not, and then i read after the jump and went “YES! the obsession will live on!”
thanks gmmr!
April 1st, 2007 at 5:35 pm
WOW. I’ve never posted a comment here before, but I absolutely love this site, and you nearly broke my little Office/Grey’s obsessed heart thinking I would never be able to get a good chuckle from GMMR again. So, I think that merits a ‘Performance Review’ Jim salute to Pam.
You got me good…and yes, that’s what she said.
April 1st, 2007 at 5:37 pm
sick sick joke!! i was DEVASTATED. thank god its april fools. i love love love this site.
April 1st, 2007 at 6:02 pm
comcast works great for me. maybe because i am in the southeast :). hehe. so far, only a few jokes have been attempted, but i have caught all of them (before i got too embarrassed)
April 1st, 2007 at 6:24 pm
This is the second TV related prank I fell for. On thetvaddict.com, there is a fake gilmore girls script and I fell for that. You scared me too much. I love this site so much so never ever shut it down!
April 1st, 2007 at 6:32 pm
Haha. Office fans are the best pranksters. Jokes are being played on all the Office messageboards. Gotta love it!
April 1st, 2007 at 6:35 pm
HOLY CRAP! Don’t do that!
Glad to hear that GMMR isn’t really going away, and good luck with all the internet issues kath
April 1st, 2007 at 6:43 pm
I totally knew it. I thought it was serious, and then I remembered the date.

Hook. Line. And Sinker.
I hate 4/1.
April 1st, 2007 at 7:47 pm
omg. you got me. my stomach dropped and i was reaching for the phone when rob said - maybe it’s an april fools! b*^(*ch!
April 1st, 2007 at 8:07 pm
You had me. You totally and utterly had me.
Phew.
April 1st, 2007 at 8:55 pm
OMG i almost DIED.
nice one. happy april fools!
April 1st, 2007 at 9:13 pm
i called my boyfriend almost in tears because i was so upset…oddly enough he was very sweet because he understands that GMMR is the first website i go to after i check my email…..so naturally when i went to leave you and comment to tell you how much i love you and will miss the site i called him back and he and i had a nice laugh. I was a little misty-eyed there for a second.
Luckily for us readers it’s the first day of April…
So happy, love you Kath!!!

My first thought was — “What am I going to do without The Office Thursdays on GMMR?!?” Thank God this was a joke…
April 1st, 2007 at 9:29 pm
Ok - I totally bought it!! You are an evil hobbit Kath!
April 1st, 2007 at 9:34 pm
NOT FUNNY!!
(OK, maybe in hindsight it was a fantastic prank but still… not cool, Kath, not cool.)
April 1st, 2007 at 10:12 pm
This is the first website I go to when I come home from work. The first one when waking up on the weekend. You had me going. I’m glad I get to stay.
April 1st, 2007 at 10:51 pm
I totally believed you and was sooo sad!!! Yay for staying around!
April 1st, 2007 at 11:14 pm
Nicely played GMMR. Totally got me.
April 1st, 2007 at 11:24 pm
lol I was like.. Is she serious? It’s not that bad
Then i was like, it has to be a joke. Nice one
April 2nd, 2007 at 12:27 am
You totally got me! I just found your site a couple of weeks ago and was bummed! But not as bummed as I was to read the Rashida Jones news. Hey, I love Rashida, but I hate Karen. I’ll try to sleep tonight
April 2nd, 2007 at 12:31 am
I’M AN IDIOT. I just realized the whole Rashida Jones thing was a prank. I was reading so fast and furious I missed that part. How embarassing.
April 2nd, 2007 at 1:12 am
You got me. I was so sad as I was about to leave a comment, then I read the first post. I totally forgot it was April 1st.
I love GMMR!!!!
April 2nd, 2007 at 1:14 am
You got me. I was so sad as I was about to leave a comment, then I read the first post. (I also didn’t see all of your post.) I totally forgot it was April 1st.
I love GMMR!!!!
April 2nd, 2007 at 1:22 am
you got me good! thanks for all the good work!
April 2nd, 2007 at 6:38 am
You had me for about half a second and then I remembered.
No one played any pranks on me and I’m not the prankster sort so I didn’t trick anyone else either.
April 2nd, 2007 at 7:48 am
If you are disappointed with Comcast, try RCN, I live in Boston and they do a nice job. You can get cable, phone and internet for a decent rate. Plus I get a 100 bucks for the referal.
April 2nd, 2007 at 9:58 am
You got me - I was about to cry! (not really, but you did get me) I’m glad you’re not going anywhere!
April 2nd, 2007 at 10:11 am
Holy crap! You had me going! After losing Life In The Office’s website, I don’t think i could deal if you went, too.
April 2nd, 2007 at 11:11 am
You are a bad bad girl!! …. evil like a hobbit.
April 2nd, 2007 at 12:08 pm
I was so sad when I read this. I came on here to leave a comment only to realized what day it is. So glad your sticking around!

as sanjaya would say “you really got me!!”
i literally said “noooooooooooooo”
April 2nd, 2007 at 9:26 pm
I just about had kittens there, for a moment! You totally got me, especially as I am a few days behind on my computer addictions.
