When I saw the UI gag/style for April 1st, the only thing that came to my mind are the UI degradations over the recent year-or-two:
Gratuitous line spacing
Uglifying the navbar with garish contrast
Switch to tiny, low-readability notification bubbles for messages and reputation change
and of course - messing up the vote and view count layout

We explained and explained why this was wrong, but to no avail. And now we're supposed to laugh at jokes and gags? I just feel sad.
