MetaFilter? Down? Holy smokes, MeFi is giving me a JRun error! What's going on? Has this ever happened before? What's the protocol? Who do I email? Bloomsday!
Jrun, run, run, run, run

*to the tune of De Do Ron Ron*

We really need somebody to cook up an MP3 of that song -- kariokeized with the new lyrics

warbaby, I was just singing that in my head!

[11213] --But wait till I tell you, he said. Delahunt of Camden street had the
[11214] catering and yours truly was chief bottlewasher. Bloom and the wife were
[11215] there. Lashings of stuff we put up: port wine and sherry and curacao to
[11216] which we did ample justice. Fast and furious it was. After liquids came
[11217] solids. Cold joints galore and mince pies ...

Ah, welcome back, net crack.

Just a slight case of the hiccups, is all...

Thank god. We were on the cusp of becoming trivial here, without MF's stumbling.

You're not suggesting that vanity/ego/testicle threads about AlexReynolds are trivial, are you papercake?

I've been out all afternoon (your morning, if you're in the Americas), but how long was it down? Because the site is up now, and my recent experience (the last couple of weeks) has been that when it goes down, it's only been for a few minutes instead of a few hours.

Oh, wait. It's back now.

Great.

on preview: What taz said. (Except for being out all afternoon/morning)

A few minutes. It's the classic story: I was in the middle of wanting to post something, encountered a slight hiccup, rushed to MetaChat, etc.

But it is Bloomsday.

gramschmidt -- no no no! On the cusp! On the cusp! (On the cups, too.) AlexReynold testical threads are the bread and butter of this site.

testicle=noun
testical=adjective?

Testically Yours,

Hugh Janus? Of the Hampshire Januses?
posted by gramschmidt 16 June | 12:53
No, extra large.

Confession of the humor impaired:
I thought your name was a reference to the Roman god, Janus and that Hugh was probably your first name and you were making a very clever reference to the fact that your name on mefi is probably different, thus the two faced god of doors. Not until just now did I say it out loud & realize. . . sigh.

testical=typo

"testicular threads"?

testicular

I can hardly tell you how happy you make me, mygothlaundry.

"Testicular threads" sounds like high-fashion codpieces.

Another server error.
posted by gramschmidt 16 June | 14:55
I just got a JRun error, but it came back up upon retrying. I've been posting on MeFi all day.

Happy Bloomsday, everyone! I lift a pint of the foamy ebon ale to all of you!
posted by scody 16 June | 20:54
Oh, God! What could it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing?! Oh right. That's would be me. Back to work.
