Even Google Has a Sense of Humor

Google opened up a new service called Google Toilet Internet Service Provider (or TiSP). They're basically offering you a fast and easy way to connect to the internet. But not with the usual dial-up, cable, or broadband connection, no, those are yesterday's technology. Google came up with a very... shall we say, innovative way for us to connect to the internet... via our toilet. After you apply to Google, you'll receive a TiSP installation kit. There's no easier way to explain how to install your new connection other than by literally flushing down the long fibre-optic cable included in the kit. The cable will then go through the plumbing system to one of the thousands of TiSP Access Nodes. You'll only need to connect the other end of the cable to the wireless router... and voila!, you're done! You're online, as simple as that.

Of course this is a seriously hillarious prank (which I assume you already realized after reading the term Toilet and Internet Service Provider in the same sentence). Here's to show you that even multi billion dollar companies do have some sense of humor. Microsoft could learn a thing or two.
