why the fuck has DU been slow as hell the past few days?
Am I the only one? Because it's taking like minutes to load a page on DU, and I know it's not my network.

2. same problem here
I am assuming it is because the ads are communicating with my spyware filter and slowing things down. Just a guess.

Ouch...did I guilt you enough?:rofl:

10. Your connection to the internets is obviously all clogged up
Unplug the wire from your modem, shake it a couple times to loosen all those stray electrons, and then plug it back it. That should do it :+
