Over the weekend, Instagram (and Pinterest and Netflix) crashed due to a storm causing power outages in North Virginia where all three platforms shared a server. The outage occurred Friday night at 11:21 p.m. EST and caused mass hysteria among the Twitter masses (considering it was one of the only platforms left to express their disdain). See below for the ten best tweets while Instagram was down.
One little tweet:
Had the power to spark all these tweets:
This is too funny! Love it!
These tweets are hilarious! Thank you, this post made my day [:
The day really did feel a bit strange – you didn’t have to create insta-worthy scenes and just live through it. Very old school 😛
OMG hahaha these are TOO funny <3

At least Twitter was still up.
On another note — this looks just like my Facebook feed when it rains or snows. “OMG RAIN!” “Eeeep it’s raining!” Awe, desert life.
The instagram crash of 2012. Can’t believe I lived to tell the tale 🙂 so funny
Hahha. These are the greatest.
This is hilarious because it’s true. It really does bring to the light all the pointless oversharing of photos of waffle brunches and extreme closeups of Fido.
I’m so glad I don’t live my life on social media,
Haha- This is so sad, yet so true
Jack Black is hilarious! kkkkkk
