Damn you Amazon!!!!

I opened reddit today and, it was odd... there were thumbnails. I have my preferences set to not show thumbnails, because it often ruins jokes in which the punchline is a photo. Also, there can be spoilers in the images.


So, I went to log in... and couldn't find the log in fields.

"Odd..," I though. I upvoted the top link. Attempting to upvote/downvote/comment will prompt you to log in. Today, it did nothing.

I started actually looking at the website and found the following ... which, you know, wasn't hidden at all, but I wasn't paying attention. There are often ads at the top of reddit. I have my preferences set not to show these ads.



Noooo! Reddit, how could you do this to me? :( AMAZON! This is ALL YOUR FAULT.

This poor sucker... It's his reddit birthday, the day in which, if you have a good enough photo or title, you can rake in the karma.



Everyone is going to be so sick of seeing the thumbnail of that dog that as soon as we can log in, he will be downvoted into oblivion.

Amazon's servers were the cause of a large shutdown a week ago.

Not sure if this one is their fault but I'm blaming them anyway. It's over btw, only lasted a couple hours. Last one lasted a couple days.

Gosh, sometimes I just don't know what I'm doing anymore. Sometimes I feel like I'm falling apart. Sometimes, I wonder if I did the right thing. I think I did. I'm sure I did. Right?

Dear Frog-- What can I say but: I told you so? I don't mean to sound so harsh, but from the beginning, I figured I was destined to "fuck up," as I so put it. And, well, I fucked it all up. I am sorry. I never meant to hurt you, but so it goes. It is in my nature. Did I not tell you this before? Perhaps, someday there will be one whom I will not sting. I will change my very nature to help this person cross the stream. Oh, but dear Frog, I feel now that I cannot say that I wish I hadn't messed everything up. As wonderful as our times were together, I feel I would have stung you eventually. As you nurse your wounds, know I will always remember you. I hope that one day you can forgive me. Scorpion _______________________________________ The Scorpion and the Frog A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream and the scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back.

LONGAVILLE: You swore to that Berowne, and the rest! BEROWNE. By yea and nay, sir, then I swore in jest. What is the end of study, let me know. KING. Why, that to know which else we should not know. BEROWNE. Things hid and barr'd, you mean, from common sense? KING. Ay, that is study's god-like recompense. BEROWNE. As thus: to study where I well may dine, When I to feast expressly am forbid; Or study where to meet some mistress fine, When mistresses from common sense are hid; KING. These be the stops that hinder study quite, And train our intellects to vain delight. BEROWNE. Why, all delights are vain; KING: I've seen for days that you've got The ways that must be checked In you I never can detect The slightest signs of intellect Your mad on dances, think of the chances you neglect You never seem inclined to use your mind You're just a fella who Has got his brains in his dancing shoes Take a lesson from me BEROWNE: I'd rather Charleston LONGAVILLE and DUMAINE: Do...
