- That website is dead! + No it's not, it's just resting. - Resting? I know a " operation timed out" when I see one. + It's pining for the fjords. ... etc.

  Ah, so the script that automatically posts this skit to Reddit whenever the word "Parrot" is mentioned works with HN now. Very nice. Or should I say, this joke was funny about 5 years ago. After being used 150 times since then, it's really lost its charm.

    To be fair, the web server really was dead for quite a while (and I really hate that movie).

    "whenever the word "Parrot" is mentioned"? No, I posted it because the website as as dead as a parrot. And ended with "etc" quite quickly because, yeah, old gag.
