If you tried accessing the site for a while it was probably showing a 502 Gateway Error. Turns out Cloudflare (DNS provider) and DigitalOcean (servers) were both down. Not sure what percentage of the internet use them, but it's a pretty significant chunk. Lots of small to medium sized sites use them, they are very popular among developers.
Yeah, quite a few sites seemed to be down.

remember when you said that whenever you decide to shut this site down you were just going to do so, without warning? thought this was it...

LOL, I did say I was only kidding and would give at least a months warning.
When monster is loose, boards must be tight.
I thought the place was done,. I cracked a beer.
I knew something was up. ShareASale, Hubspot, Wickfire, and a bunch of other sites I frequent for work were also down.

You do you, I guess.

If you're cutting grass, I see no problem with this. In fact, I'll even suggest that it should be mandatory haha!
Love a good breakfast beer.

Agree. I don't have any issue with CC's breakfast beer. If I was a teacher I'd have them a lot in the summer especially after a nice morning run.

Yeah FB is irritating right now
Facebook is trash, but it's also happening on Instagram. How am I supposed to browse memes all day?

I know this is true, but it makes me cringe, because I still use it.

Instagram is trash as well, and thankfully it's not happening on Snapchat
myspace is just fine.

Oh I definitely browse, and my friends and I use it for event invites, etc. But I probably post a status or photo about 4-6 times/year these days.

I guess I still prefer to write things instead of putting up pictures. Plus, a lot of people I do business with are easier to reach on there than anywhere else. Otherwise, I'd probably be migrating to Instagram.

Huh. Not happening to me at all.
