Final item from TF2's Sniper Vs Spy update revealed

PC News | Jars of pee for everyone.
With yesterday revealing the final unlockable item for the Spy class - 'The Ambassador' pistol, today Valve has released the final tease for the next Team Fortress 2 update.

The Sniper's third unlockable will prove pretty hard to top in the comedy stakes, with Valve confirming that Jarate is more than an April Fools prank. For those of you that missed out on that gag, Jarate is essentially a jar of pee that the Sniper can throw, which Valve notes "when [Jarate is] splashed on enemies, they take 35% more damage for a period of time."

Those valve crazies also explained that Jarate has anumber of other uses such as being "able to short out Spies' cloaking devices" and "extinguish[ing] any fire effects" when it is splashed onto a teammate.

To celebrate the Sniper vs Spy update, Team Fortress 2 will have a free weekend beginning tomorrow, so if you haven't already played the game, get preloading!

Dear god, the response on the Valve forums to this is simply nauseating.
I advise anyone who values their sanity not to check it out...
