The definitive what you did while MacRumors forums were down thread

[1020]

Watched a really bad Canadian movie filmed in BC.

Let's see... Slept for about 2 hours with my headphones blaring, woke up, talk to a friend that was online at 2:15AM, then went back to sleep.

on the boat snorkling around cozumel

 

[rockthecasbah]

worked, then took a nap

 

[SuperCompu2]

...went about my daily life

 

[szark]

Had Stargate:SG-1 and Stargate:Atlantis marathons. I hadn't yet found the time to watch any of the episodes from the last half of the last seasons, so I finally sat down and watched them all.

I only noticed the forums were down when I briefly surfed the web before going to sleep.

A little part of me died inside.

I bought a lottery ticket and won $100K. I guess it's a good thing the site went down.

 

[iBlue]

I didn't even know it was down. I'm a traitor to MR on the weekends. Someone else gets all my attention at those times.

Seriously?

 

[Markleshark]

I didn't even know they went down... I dunno, I was prolly working, or having sex with a girl, you know, something like that...

 

[bartelby]

or having sex with a girl, you know, something like that...

Lies!!

 

[Queso]

Went down Hatton Garden with my partner and bought two rings for our upcoming wedding

 

[Markleshark]

Lies!!

So true...

 

[devman]

changed hands

Watched some Metroid Retrospective videos on GameTrailers.com, then some StarCraft II videos on IGN, and became inspired to play StarCraft: Brood War.

 

[Abstract]

Meh, probably something productive. :shrugs:

 

[mad jew]

Come on Abstract. You're not fooling anyone.

 

[Wayfarer]

I was trying to learn how to paint like Picasso.

YAY ME!

 

[Abstract]

Come on Abstract. You're not fooling anyone.

Um, if you must know, I almost became a moderator at Dell Rumours in a span of 27 minutes.

 

[Wayfarer]

Dell Rumors... eh?

I think I threw up in mouth a little.

 

[JudgeDanny]

This Hard Boiled? Awesome movie...I need to watch that again. I was watching Seven Swords just before Macrumors went down. I love HK movies.

Yep, that's the exact movie i was watching. I enjoyed the action and the comedy that was in it... particularly... the baby pissing to put the fire out

seven swords... sounds like an interesting movie. I'll have to find it and watch it sometime

Surely not that little.

I love tat site, it has potential. Too bad it's never updated.

I was repairing the databases, reading up on mysql and crossing my fingers...
