The final whistle blew. The mighty Brazil fell to a Dutch team that was less than easy on the eyes. Good thing Dunga’s a tough guy, for he is about to take an epic beating. But let’s go on to the aftermath.
Twitter was already buzzing. As I went to post my latest brilliant thought in 140 characters or less, Twitter told me that it was over capacity. It’s happened before. So I hit the refresh button. Then I’m told that the website that I was looking for — Twitter — might have moved its website. In 140 words or less, I believe that Brazil’s loss destroyed Twitter’s server.
I’ve seen soccer in Brazil shut down cities. But this latest feat, defeating the king of short messaging, is a feat that rivals the US winning the Cold War. Brazilian soccer is just as powerful as Twitter. It’s certainly more powerful than the U.S.S.R. of the Cold War era. That, my friends, is impressive.
So be careful next time you consider defeating Brazil in soccer. This time they just broke Twitter. Next time, they might ruin our oceans. Oh, wait. BP already did that.
Or maybe my computer just sucks.
not your computer. as soon as the game ended twitter went down and hasn’t come back up. crazy.
And that’s why no one should root for Brazil, Sam.
Nobody messes with our soccer !
Yes, Carlos. No argument here. Just leave the oceans alone and step back slowly. No one else needs to get hurt.
