Before I go on, everyone saw that title right? It wasn't just me who thought "ARGHH, how did I not think of that first!!!"
But yeah, Dungeons: The Dragoning (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DungeonsTheDragoning) was apparently a game that was shown off at the tabletop boards on 4chan ( known as/tg/) on April Fool's Day, and it seems like this wasn't just a one-off joke somebody made in about 10 Minutes with Word and MSPaint. It seems to be a real game that mixes Dungeons and Dragons (mostly showing signs of 4E), World of Darkness, Warhammer (that's Fantasy Roleplaying AND 40K) and Exalted, with small sprinklings of Mutants and Masterminds, into a full-color, 300 page book with a layout similar to Changeling (I think) and 3rd edition.
I've only just opened it (and here's a spot where you can, too (http://lawfulnice.blogspot.com/2011/04/dungeons-dragoning-11.html)), but it looks fantastic and I just wanted to share it here.
(It also appears to be pretty SFW since I haven't seen any nudity and about only one instance of foul language, but like I said, I've only cracked this thing open).
EDIT: BTW, here's the blog of the creator. (http://lawfulnice.blogspot.com/2011/04/dungeons-dragoning-11.html)
