Never mind Azure: They BROKE Twitter!

Oh no oh no

God replies,
'Get a life you twat!'

Twitter is currently down for <%= reason %>.
They even broke their error messages! I went to check and am currently getting:

We expect to be back in <%= deadline %>
This outage is also affecting my joke telling abilities....
<%= joke beginning %>
<%= joke punchline %>
<%= reason for Paris %>
B-Boom!
I think they're trying to say...
Twitter is down due to excessive use of ASP.
I think outage can no longer the appropriate term when a social networking site goes down, such is the fury generated. Perhaps outrage is a better term?
It's OK, it's just the Feds installing their backdoor monitoring equipment. Normal service will returned soon.
I blame the Daily Mail
Happened just as I was going to follow @UnSteveDorkland
What's this twitter thing your all on about ?
Is it something those BBS sites I use ?
Paris as its a dumb blond thing.....
Twitter's down?
Awesome! Maybe the addicts will get some actual work done for a change!

BBC
This was #3 on the BBC New website a few minutes ago, after (1) Olympics (2) Natwest snafu.
Rare to have two-out-of-three top headlines about tech glitches. Especially when there's no shortage of othe stuff happening in the world today.
Re: BBC
It's part of the testing for world war 3.0 - they are just seeing how the public cope with the idea of social networking rationing!
I cant wait for the government propaganda slogans...
Loose tweets, sink fleets
A stray like will down a flight
Skype a stranger, put your country in danger
And my personal fave - Check-in your location - and kill your whole family!
No problem
I'm fine with anything that breaks Twitter or Facebook.
Re: No problem
Any way to make it PERMANENT...for them both?
Shooting Google+ in a barrel
Actually I prefer Google+ to Twitter or even Facebook. I rather like its microblogging feature, even if it's a step down from Buzz.
Besides, what do they say about dead horses?
Re: Shooting Google+ in a barrel
One of the thngs they say about dead horses is that if you're bored or alone, you can open them up and climb inside for whatever gratification it gives you.
Was that what you meant?

She wasn't alone -- who do you think was taking the pictures?
Re: Shooting Google+ in a barrel
So how is working for Google, xperroni?
Re: Shooting Google+ in a barrel
So how is working [sic] for Google, xperroni?
Why, I didn't know How is working for Google. Perhaps I should ask for a recommendation?
By the way, what about your English classes? Not going very well, I gather?
Bloody Typical
I got an email from OneLouder saying they'd fixed a Facebook connectivity issue I'd reported to them and the whole sodding Twitter service fell on its arse as soon as I fired up TweetCaster. Maybe it was me wot caused it????
@Graham Marsden
Only the mindless numpties that spend most of their workday on it or facebook while the rest of us are actually working, the demographic makes up approximately 75% of the human race that has Internet access
AC flameproof vest and helmet donned.
I dunno why they called it Twitter - everyone knows that is the sensitive area between a womans twat and her shitter!!
Paris, because....you know..
