Hillarious or insensitive? Both!

Does anyone else know when livejournal's servers suddenly got angsty?

"I'm sorry, you've reached a page that I cannot find. I'm really sorry about this. It's kind of embarassing. Here you are, the user, trying to get to a page on LiveJournal and I can't even serve it to you. What does that say about me? I'm just a webserver. My sole purpose in life is to serve you webpages and I can't even do that! I suck. Please don't be mad, I'll try harder. I promise! Who am I kidding? You're probably all like, "Man, LiveJournal's webserver sucks. It can't even get me where I want to go." I'm really sorry. Maybe it's my CPU...no that's ok...how bout my hard drives? Maybe. Where's my admin? I can't run self-diagnostics on myself. It's so boring in this datacenter. It's the same thing everyday. Oh man, I'm so lonely. I'm really sorry about rambling about myself, I'm selfish. I think I'm going to go cut my ethernet cables. I hope you get to the page you're looking for...goodbye cruel world!"

Apparently I don't mistype lj addies often, because the Sad Server In Snow phenomenon is new to me.

This seems familiar ... I think I got something like this back in the day, but I can't remember where.

Pretty funny, though.

This is totally unrelated, but do you know yet if/when you're coming up for Uncle Bonsai this weekend? Hope to see you!

No - I'm so, so ready to be at home for awhile. I would have loved to see you and them, but...but...so tired of travel.

Unfortunate but understandable :(

I'm still going to be rolling down the first weekend in December. You going to be around for that?

[shadesofmauve]

Yup!

Cool! I'll see you then!
