^Twitter really kept itself together during the outage, huh?
Everyone will remember where they were when the two procrastination giants, Twitter and Gchat went down today. Sitting at our fucking desks, crunching fucking numbers, that's where.
Today made me realize how dependent I am on bothering all of my friends and telling 140 character jokes. Just sitting at my desk itching like a crack addict refreshing my browser. A significant part of my work day is not working, so this put a severe cramp in my style.
I took it all for granted. Hearing that familiar Gchat sound alert, checking what Justin Timberlake and random pornstars are up to, and purposely chatting people with the "I'm busy" red dot because you know they aren't busy. Nothing like it. You think I'm going to go on Facebook? Pfft, shit was like the Superdome after Katrina. A bunch of displaced souls looking for shelter until they can get their life back together.
I hope at least 40,000 people lost their jobs/lives because of this.

Add CommentWhere did the "funny" button go? Typing a comment is too much work for me - it was better when my emotional reaction only boiled down to a few options.
the "funny" button has left us. clearly a poor attempt to get people to comment
