Facebook is down -- Oh, the humanity!

[nichomachus]

Facebook is down -- and has been for about 30 minutes (12:40 PT). So, maybe the Blood Moon was the sign of the end times.

Does this mean I have to call my friends and describe my tunafish sandwich over the phone?

OMG

[villager]

1. No Scrabble moves for me for awhile then

Not sure I "like" that....

[gratuitous]

2. You're having tuna?

I had a can of Progresso soup. Sadly, you can only imagine it. When, oh when, will our national nightmare end? How will I know whether I love Jesus enough to share a picture? Or if my friends really, truly love their daughters or sons or hamsters? I am prostrate with grief. I can't go on. There is only the negativeness of the universe. The hideous lonely emptiness of existence. Nothingness. The predicament of Man forced to live in a barren, Godless eternity like a tiny flame flickering in an immense void with nothing but waste, horror and degradation, forming a useless bleak straitjacket in a black absurd cosmos.

13. LOL!

15. Luckily imdb is still up

Otherwise I might never be able to post.

16. There's always Twitter.

[wheniwasincongress]

34. Youtube still works

so if you're interested, you can leave random racist comments on videos that aren't even relevant to race or humans (such as cat videos, math tutorials, videos of trees being struck by lightning.) It's the thing to do on the Youtube comments!

[no_hypocrisy]

3. Maybe they're installing that "dislike" button.

[nichomachus]

4. Looks like it's back up now.

This is the second time in a week.

[elleng]

5. Sorry, back up!

[KamaAina]

6. No, but you do have to describe what your cats are playing with.

28. Latest I read was two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar daily...LOL...n/t

[merrily]

10. Did Kim Kardashian break facebook, too? Or was it those vile supporrters of Sanders?

I'm guessing it's one of those two.

I think google is the most used website and facebook is the second.

[katmondoo]

11. I posted something bad about the Republicans

and everybody got mad, had to shut Facebook down

[Brickbat]

12. Yeah, people never flip their shit when DU hiccups.

[CTyankee]

14. No, you must post your cute puppies doing cute things in the DU Lounge...

[louis-t]

17. Nah, you can text them.

[pokerfan]

18. i guess Eduardo froze the accounts again

EDUARDO
I had to get your attention, mark.

MARK
Do you realize that you jeopardized the
entire company? Do you realize that your
actions could have easily destroyed
everything I've been working on?

EDUARDO
We've been working on.

MARK
Without money, the company can't
function. If the servers are down for
even a day, our reputation is damaged
irreversibly,. Users are fickle. Friendster
has proven that fact.

[KamaAina]

19. It's doing it again! (1:35 PDT)

Now I can't even get to the login page!

[Warren DeMontague]

20. Is this the place on the internet where we come to complain about the existence of the internet?

Yeah, the internet, man. Fuck that thing.

[lumberjack_jeff]

21. Facebook is down! No time to waste! To DU to discuss it! n/t

[marions ghost]

22. Mercury Retrograde...

communications break down. Til Oct 9, when Mercury goes direct.

The other day my computer suddenly would not boot up. I tried to call somebody for tech support but my cell phone was out (a cable had been severed). Neither had ever occurred before.

So, believe it or not, there are these coincidences

[monmouth4]

29. DU is really slow. Going to HuffPo for a while....n/t

[Duval]

27. Ohhh mannnnn, I thought

[tavernier]

30. No, no can't be!!
