WordPress pranks – prank no. 1

Lately wordpress  is not on its best behaviour. I guess they are not quite having a ball at the moment. What really turns me off is when the home page won’t open. Instead they issue a big (and recurring) message:

Whoops

Something went wrong.

Drop us a note.

Dropping a note is no problem! You just have to follow the link they provided and then a page loads, where you do your writing, right?

Wrong!

Once you click the link they provide, you are very likely to be ambushed with another message “Support is temporarily closed. [...] – depending on your time zone.

Gee, is that the cool wordpress way of saying “April fool”! Or ‘Gotcha! How come you fell for that (chuckle)”!

You know, I wouldn’t mind April Fool pranks. I am usually not a spoilsport. Just make sure you do it on April 1.

And in case it’s the Gotcha version….well, you are right. You got me! Problem is, I don’t get you sometimes. And each time I fall, I feel grumpy.

Hmmmmmmmm, maybe that’s not a bad thing after all….I mean, it inspired me to write an entry, didn’t it?
