The linked page is entirely empty for me. It keeps being so when I reload.
Also, it's the first time that I see something on /r/funny that lands on the Hacker News front page a few hours later.

Also, if you'd followed me on Twitter, you would have seen this 19 hours ago ;-) https://twitter.com/edent/status/393050827570421760
I use NoScript and RequestPolicy. I'm thinking the page is another one of those that depends so much on javascript that it can't do anything without it. That's bad for the security of your readers because practically every known browser exploit in the last decade has had javascript as a necessary component - so over-use of javascript forces your users to choose between exposing themselves to increased risk or not reading your content.
Also, javascript performance on mobile is terrible, frequently 10x slower than desktop, so even if you don't care about the security of your users, the user experience of your websites is probably going to suffer on mobile.
Thanks for the info.
Granted, it's not the most scintillating use of irony - but it fits the British definition quite adequately.
Of course, the ironic thing about Alanis Morrisette's song is that it contains no irony. Which makes it paradoxically ironic.
I have heard the "paradoxically ironic" bit from other people before and it never made any sense to me. A lack of irony is not the same thing as the opposite of irony. I have also never been able to understand the difference between "ironic" and "paradoxically ironic."
I have used the same theme in my personal blog, and I occasionally notice the main and posts page turning up blank when I myself visit it. Doesn't happen if I switch to another theme.
