April Fool's Jokes
On April Fool's Day 2008, Dinosaur Comics was part of a three-webcomic prank involving Questionable Content and xkcd, wherein each comic's URL displayed another comic's web page. Questionablecontent.net displayed the Dinosaur Comics website, qwantz.com displayed xkcd, and xkcd.com displayed Questionable Content.
On April Fool's Day 2010, the usual characters were replaced with those from the Nedroid webcomic series. The same 6 new panels were applied to every single comic on the website. Afterwards, North kept this feature available and added other webcomics, such as Penny Arcade and xkcd, all of which can be accessed by adding "&butiwouldratherbereading=" and the specific name to the end of the URL.

“I always put these pert jackanapeses out of countenance by looking extremely grave when they expect that I should laugh at their pleasantries; and by saying Well, and so?—as if they had not done, and that the sting were still to come. This disconcerts them, as they have no resources in themselves, and have but one set of jokes to live upon.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
