Yes, Twitter is down for everyone, apparently impacting countries around the world. No need to strap on the kevlar vest and be on the look out for the stealth choppers...

No one will know I had diarrhea today.
I do!
It's on. Internet and banking global shutdown taking place. You have just Won a vacation to FEMA camp Kalifornia.
Meanwhile in the UK:
"NatWest online banking meltdown: Millions of customers unable to move money or pay bills as accounts freeze"

Comcast is down for me, too. Last hour. A rare event. Hmmm...
Kitco is down for maintenance :)
Yahoo finance has no indexes.
Oh well, time to paint the tape.
wat...wat...happened?
don't worry god's gift to everything the engineers are on it
Comcast is down because they just suck. I always have problems with them.
How convenient.........Always seems to happen on market days like this.
So this sound like just a dry run for the real thing then, with a little realism thrown in.
A little ugly on the side.
Do not panic. This is merely a regularly-scheduled HAL2012 government data mining op, which will be completed shortly.
Now, move along, folks. Nothing to see here.
Oh, the humanity.
Abso-fuckin-lutly. The FED is loading software. Freedom be damned!
The camp with the difference, never mind the weather; when you're shipped to FEMA, the 'oliday's forever!
+1 for quoting the greatest album of all time.
Certainly on the short list. I'm a Quadrophenia fan meself.
"The price of meat has just gone up
An' yer ol' lady has just gone down . . . "
Not a personal reference, mind you. Except the meat part.
Fuck you Bernanke!
Post O' The Day ;)
Bank Holiday begins!! Yay.
Better close down my backyard
You say that like it's a bad thing. "Ignorance is bliss" applies here.
It's ALL going down now! You can't resolve the issue if it's caused by central planning!
Mrs. Cog broke it. Sorry about that guys. :)
lol - code eleven - twitter down
Mrs Cog breaks everything she touches.
EVERYTHING.
<"What's that? Yes dear, I was only kidding.">
My wife has an Amazon grip
What once was a gusher's a drip
Some pleasure, some pain
Some financial gain
There's no need to order a snip
It has come to my attention that this limerick may contain some unintentional Canadiana ....some of us Canucks refer to a vasectomy as a "snip" (e.g. "He just got snipped"). My apologies for any confusion (You know what they say about explaining jokes.....I think it's the same for limericks!)
There is nothing to the rumor that Cog has been gripped and snipped.
Nuttin' I tell ya.
<Yes dear, I'll go shopping with you in a minute.>
Now where was I? :>)
Wait - was that an octave higher?
Oh no! My "tweets" have been "bleeped"!
With Twitter down, where will they announce that they'll be straight back up again?
Twitter can be such a TWAT
It went out about the same time the Dow stopped dropping. Must of been the inability of Tyler to spread truth so everyone bought the stocks lie.
404 Bitzhes!
Twitter is stupid anyways, who cares.
WTF is "Twitter"?
a virtual space to twat.
End of days
Iran. (And good for them.)
Can we please do this to Farcebook? Pleeeeeeaaase???
Mayans
There's more than one? :)
(California Val Girl Voice)
Waaaaaiiit...
What's with that calendar if they're all dead already?
I doooon't get iiiit....
OMG
I am soooo not inviting the Mayans to my slumber party.
Bath salts, bitchez!
This might help June productivity.....
DHS?
No way. DHS love Twitter. One pass over the site and they know 99% of what American's care about at any given second on any given day.
And if they don't like what they see they can change that by tweeting just what it is they want everyone to think.
Social media. What a lie that is. Goebbels would be pleased.
My point is that they may be doing some Digital Forensics...
+1 on Goebbels
Anyone notice the simultainous 100 point drop in 2 minutes? lol
Twitter was brought down by everyone calling Restoy on his bullshit bank audit.
Bullish Smoke Signal training schools.
long skywriters!
How will I tweet updates for my cat's blog? That does it, I'm suing.
...and in Norway:
"Oslo Stock Exchange confirms massive attack"
Oslo Stock Exchange open web pages in recent days has been subjected to several attacks in the form of massive unwanted traffic. The site is currently taken down and are not available to external users. The following pages are not available: www.oslobors.no www.osloabm.no www.osloborsvps.no We apologize for the inconvenience.http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF8&prev=_t...
Sounds like a pretty good reason to black out twitter to me!
Glitch in the Matrix. PETA got pissy about using cats...
"Twitter Hit By Major Service Outage"
Good riddance. Too bad it can't be permanent.
Moody’s Said to Be Poised to Announce Bank Downgrades Today
By Howard Mustoe - Jun 21, 2012 11:50 AM ET
Bank Run!
AT&T internet down in SoCal
Think of all those poor Algos that are unable to think straight without keywords from Twitter.
Time to fry my hard disks.
I can see MIBs out on my front porch.
Better yet, let me get my shotgun ;)
But twitter just like Failbook are fads.
Say hi to Elvis. And as mentioned in other posts, it's 00-slug-00-slug (or alternately, slug-00-slug-00...) until full.
What the fuck is a "Twitter?"
Well, it'll buy you a nice house.

I'll take "What rhymes with dot com balloons of the 90's" for $200 Alex.
Re Twitter hit by major service outage
How Tweet It Is!
2 up arrows.
Twitter down, world ends.
YouTube at 2300 GMT.
...nope, all the contrary!
Twitter goes down, productivity skyrockets"In the aftermath of this social media tragedy, I offer my sympathies to anyone who is suffered Twitter withdrawal symptoms like I am and invite him or her to seek comfort on my or on msnbc.com tech's Facebook pages."
(MSNBC's Rosa!)
my lady friend's pussy is down for maintenece (that time of the month) but should be up and running by sunday..is this news i should put on twitter..lol
If Twitter keeps crashing, that means the site is going downhill and people will start leaving... which means an IPO must be right around the corner.
I have the next service to replace Twitter loaded onto a web site right now.
no /sarc
They are going down.

#WhileYouWerePretendingToWork
Shitter
It's back for now.
It's working again. I guess I can put the AR back in the closet.
Mark Zuckerberg: You froze the account.
Eduardo Saverin: I had to get your attention, Mark.
Mark Zuckerberg: Do you realize that you jeopardized the entire company? Do you realize that your actions could have permanently destroyed everything I've been working on?
Eduardo Saverin: We have been working on.
Mark Zuckerberg: Without money the site can't function. Okay, let me tell you the difference between Facebook and everybody else; we don't crash, ever! If the servers are down for even a day our entire reputation is irreversibly destroyed.
just read over all the amusing posts at twitter about its outage :) just search "OUTAGE" there!
Nope it's dead again...better get the AR back out.
Yes, yes! An eagle just circled my house three times and flew south. Also, I examined the entrails of some road kill in front of my house. There were THREE livers. Bad omens indeed!
My cat his filled his litterbox. And the Fresh Market was out of Dirty Bastard Ale.
UGNzai supposedly behind the attack.

Maybe the NSA tap went down?
"The price of meat has just gone up

(Mis-placed post ... please move on.)
Eagerly awaiting the twit-valanche when service is restored?
