The Website Is Down was a web series of videos from the late 2000s that were popular on 4cuck /g/^{[they just were, ok?]} that feature a sysadmin, Derrick, and a sales associate, Chip working for a company named Plastroltech.^[1] The videos portray a systems administrator's nightmare, where Derrick has to deal with normies, help them with computers, deal with Windows constantly brapping and try to avoid getting fired in the laziest way possible, with squirrel voices for some reason.^[Marge...]

The first episode, made in 2008, was actually a mashup of several real-life IT horror stories rolled up into one, with actors recreating the circumstances of those stories. There are 4 episodes total along with one half-episode.^[2]
