something already went wrong (Use your teeth)

February 2022

“But like lots of people, I couldn’t even log in to Truth Social because when it launched, select users who tried to create accounts were repeatedly met with a red error warning, ‘Something went wrong. Please try again.’ Though by the time you find yourself signing up for Donald Trump’s social media site, something already went wrong.” —Seth Meyers

“But I’m guessing they’ll try again. If you were first in line to sign up for Truth Social, you probably got some free time on your hands.[imitating Trump supporter] ‘Well, I’m just sitting here waiting for J.F.K., Jr. to reappear at the Meadowlands with Elvis and the Loch Ness monster to prove the election was stolen. I guess I’ll try logging in again.’” —Seth Meyers

“I really enjoy how vague the error message is: ‘Something went wrong,’ like even they don’t know what the problem is. Usually you get an error code or something, but Trump’s site just gives you a shrug emoji that says, ‘What were you expecting? This thing’s a cluster [expletive].’” —Seth Meyers

“The snafu makes sense, because the site is run by former GOP congressman Devin Nunes, who told Fox News last week that the site would be ‘fully operational’ by the end of March. By the end of March? This is the digital age! Everything is measured in nano-seconds and you’re moving at the speed of civil war letters home.” —Seth Meyers

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic. 

A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
