I hate to keep bringing this up, but I don't think it counts as a "shit post" if you're just posting an actual real thing that you found in the news

I'm pretty sure that's just a regular news post

[–] [email protected] 66 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I actually thought this was fake because it was posted here

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Same, I had to go look it up to make sure

I feel like we should put a rest to the term “breaking the internet.”

Am I the only one here completely out of the loop?

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 year ago (7 children)

Yeah nothing viral has really ever broken the internet.

Ellen Degenerate’s Oscar tweet sort of broke Twitter briefly, I can’t think of much else.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nowadays Twitter breaks itself spontaneously, no celeb needed

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does Elon musk not count as a celeb? Because he was definitely needed to break twitter.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Definitely doesn't count. There's famous, and then there's infamous.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ellen was also quite infamous among her crew.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There was that CDN that went down a couple years ago, that literally broke the internet briefly

...aaand hearty handshake!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You'd do it for Hedy Lamarr!

Facebook fucking up their BGP 2 years ago broke the internet for like 1/3 of the world

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Which is less impressive considering a gentle breeze can break Twitter now.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

On the same topic, the Will Smith/Chris Rock Oscar slap pretty much saturated the internet for a few days

The internet never breaks, it only splits

[–] [email protected] 90 points 1 year ago (6 children)

So black and blue, in the end, then.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago

With a little red too.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Orange is the new black and blue.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's blue and gold. I don't know why everyone else sees it wrong.

Is his wife's name Yanny or Laurel?

I'm putting my money on Gay Bowser.

Im just reading the article, and remembering the whole domestic abuse campaign the dress produced. Think this just really drove the point home for sure.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Domestic abuse campaign the dress produced? I barely pay attention, remember the dress but not that.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh! A campaign AGAINST domestic abuse! That's better!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hahaha what did you think?

Like a black and white infomercial,

"Have you come home without dinner being ready? Laundry piling up? Is your wife exposing too much skin?

Lucky for you, there's an easy solution!"

Fade to color...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I thought at first it might be some kind of "mens rights" group pro-abuse because it's traditional kind of bullshit..

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

Still couldn't agree on the colour of it, eh?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn, it still looks blue to me.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

That escalated quickly.
