Heads-Up: Planned LJ Maintenance Tonight

[overlord-zordon.livejournal.com]

It's a good thing I actually read my RL flist, as I was alerted to this. LJ is scheduled to be down for maintenance between 10PM and midnight PST tonight. lj_maintenance has this to say:

In an effort to reduce the instance of database errors on the site, on Friday March 10th we will be taking a 2 hour maintenance window starting at 10pm PST (GMT -8). During this window we will be upgrading some components of our database architecture, and whole or parts of the site may be unavailable to you. Though the intent is to keep the total downtime as minimal as possible (under 20 minutes), we reserve the entire window to work on any unexpected kinks. We'll be posting ahead of time and following to update you on our progress.

So, just a heads-up so none of you are as traumatized as we were the last time LJ got brokenated.

But so help me, if LJlogin gets brokenated by the upgrades again, I'm gonna . . .

ETA: Seriously, I should turn off comment notifications on this post. But y'all are cracking me up.

Your plots kill LJ.

We need to hide it somewhere safe! *flails*

I don't mean to! My fingers just get all slippy and then I hit this big red button that says "Do not touch" and...

Ooops?

[demonbelthazor]

There, there, let Bel make it allllll better.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

Take your shirts off and it'll be allllll better. For the spectators that is.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

I refuse to give in to that kind of gratuitous pandering.

[demonbelthazor]

As do I.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

I'll give you both cookies.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

It's cheap and demeans us all. I want to be valued for my mind.

[demonbelthazor]

*nods* I'm tired of just being a sex object.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Is a little eye contact too much to ask?

[sensethevisions]

Yes.

[demonbelthazor]

You...you...sex-crazed animal!

[sensethevisions]

You wouldn't have me any other way.

[nadiathesaint]

Is it a jolly, candy-like button?

Because then all is forgiven.

and if no one else gets that reference, I will cry.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

When will girls learn that we're more than just sex objects?

[sensethevisions]

When you stop looking lickable?

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

It's not my fault I dropped that bottle of syrup all over myself when I'd just gotten out of the shower.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Shiny, candy-colored button! YES!

[nadiathesaint]

and really, who could resist one of those?
