For those situations when the software on twitter doesn’t work as it’s supposed to be, those guys from made up the fail whale, that showed up then. And as the amount of twitter users increased the fail whale appeared quite often.

The twitter users began to like that fail whale and they said they missed him when other sites without the whale were used to excuse mistakes on twitter.

And as twitter used “fail” for its overloaded system, people on twitter took “fail” for any situation that was supposed to be different.

And do you know what’s so fail about the fail whale? It never shows up at the right time to hinder you from reading things that you never wanted to know.
