What to Do When Twitter Goes Down

No, not go outside. Ew.

Twitter went down this morning AS I WAS USING IT. (Rude.) And after attempting to refresh it for 15 minutes I realized that clicking a button repeatedly wasn't going to solve anything. (Damn...)

I like using Twitter for quick information. It tells you what hashtags are trending, so maybe you can join in. There's the "Moments" bar that tells you whats going on in News, Sports, and Entertainment. It keeps me up to date on whats going on today.

I don't know that now.

I know nothing now.

Here is a timeline of Chynna slowly losing her mind after her Twitter went down this morning.

9:00AM

Oh crap, Twitter is down.

9:05AM

Is it back yet?

9:06AM

9:07AM

9:10AM

Is it back yet?

9:11AM

HOW DO I GET MY INFORMATION ONLINE NOW?

FACEBOOK?

That thing that just went to court for having privacy issues? That thing where everybody shares everything whether or not it's true? Because, if it's on Facebook, it HAS to be true, right?

Facebook, that site where almost no useful information is spread unless it's a movie trailer, or that friend you haven't seen since high school posting a bajillion pictures of their new baby.

THAT'S what I have to go through to attempt to find information???

9:12AM

*dives into Facebook*

9:20AM

1000 memes, 572 baby photos, and a million weather posts later, I now know 5 different ways to make garlic mozzarella cheese dippers....Whatever those are...

9:25AM

Spends 5 minutes praying and making bargains to the computer gods.

10AM

I realize that I have been staring blankly out the window for about 30 minutes.

10:05AM

I actually do my job.

11AM

A CHOIR OF ANGELS DESCENDS FROM THE HEAVENS SINGING A JOYFUL CHORUS.

TWITTER IS BACK ONLINE!!!

...Oh, hey #TwitterDown is trending...
