yeah i know it's broken. i saw his tweet about that earlier before i saw why it was getting slammed. i can't even begin to imagine how many hits they're getting to break servers that are designed to handle millions of hits a day already.



Reddit, 4chan and Twitter.

The combined power of those three places slamming your site would bring down about anybody hehe

The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.
