Guy 1: hey, you ever hear about "Gaseous_assesous" getting really popular over night by posting minecraft videos?
Guy 2: yeah, seems like there was lot of Internet shrapnel. They're calling him racial slurs and saying that his content was an effortless fluke, that doesn't deserve the attention.
Guy 1: Happens all the time

"The 'speed' of the Internet --- i.e., how long web-pages take to 'load' and/or respond to you mouse-clicks --- will be in direct inverse proportion to how urgently you need to view the desired material; the connection will be even slower at times there's someone else waiting for you who's also in a hurry.
My buddy needed me to hastily Google engine-bolt-torquing specs during an emergency-repair task he was struggling to get done before a downpour, but the Web was "slower dan molasses runnin' uphill in da wintertime" --- it was a classic "Murphy's Law of Internet-Speed" scenario!
