    Whatever are you talking about?
    Don't I see the following post, posted on March 1st, at the top of page 3397?
    Wouldn't ice cream in your coffee be good? Like a coffee float?

    Why do I find clicking back to page 3397 almost as exhausting as the thought of travelling the world?
    BTW, has anyone tried an ice cream coffee latte?😋

    Hello?? have you all missed me?

    Isnt it wonderful I can finally see writing again and not blank pages on this thread?

    Have you been checking in on us daily or was it a coincidence that you popped in today and everything had been restored, @paperpudding ?



    since most other threads were not blank ends for me, wasn't still checking in to forum daily a good thing?

    😲 Do you think this thread was unfairly targeted for such a glitch?

    Aren’t you missing a very important bit of punctuation here, @frankwbrown ?

    Can you see this?

    Can you see this now that this thread has been restored, @STRAITBUGGIN ??

    Why do we often seem to be in disagreement in this thread, Frank? Can't we just get along? 😎

    Was that an appropriate smiley/emoticon? Would my teenage daughter be proud of her old man's tech-speak skills?

    Are you sure she’d be proud, @nossmf ? Did you know I recently read an article that most youth these days use emojis ironically or sarcastically?

    Whatever happened to the world where a smiley face can simply mean a smiling person?

    Also, whatever happened to my last post, where I asked if anybody else has been experiencing lag and dropouts in this particular thread when clicking "Post Reply" but not in other threads?

    Isn't it weird that it's just this one thread?

    Haven't I had it happen in several threads, inconsistently? And isn't it weird that the way it times out is different than I've ever seen, compared to the usual 504 Gateway TImeout response?
    (Is it possible I'm wrong about it happening in other threads? 🤷‍♂️)

    Didn’t I post about getting that same message just a few days ago? Does it make it even stranger that even though I get that message, my post is usually always successfully posted?

    Would you think it less strange if I told you that a 504 error is telling you that a server was waiting for a response from another server to which it sent your request, which means it succeeded in sending the request, but timed out waiting for a response from that server? Doesn't this suggest then that the other server might have received and acted on the request, but was slow in sending back a response?
    (isn't this a simplified description of what happens?)

    a simplified description???

    would you please refrain from posting the detailed one?

    If you could see my facial expression right now, wouldn’t it be clear that my own server is timed out? How can I insert “Does not compute” in the form of a question?

    Why is this confusing? Doesn't it make perfect sense?

    Would it have been better if I'd said, "Server A sent a request to Server B, and Server B acted on that request but was slow in sending back a response, and Server A got tired of waiting"? 🤔

    Frank yes, don't I prefer your new super simplified explanation?

    While we're waiting to find out if the copyright is pending, is this a good time to mention that I've chatted with our Canadian feline friend, and she isn't stuck in the future, hasn't won the lottery, nor is she travelling the world, but just needed to step away from MFP due to a lot going on in her personal life?

    Can you send her a big virtual hug for us along with lots of exclamation points instead of question marks, @cmsienk ?
