So I was on stickam yesterday and safari started to bog down , then I couldnt scroll or click on anything at all. So I proceeded to go to force quit menu and the cursor froze. I'm new to mac so i'm upset. Do macs freeze often?

If its safaris fault doesnt that mean that the OS shouldnt crash anyway
 
The myth that macs never crash is false. Mac's do crash, just less often then the Windows counterparts.

Furthermore, Stickam is a flash based site. I'm guessing the flash plugin caused Safari to boggle down, which would overload the CPU and bring down the OS.
