Friday night marked the beginning of a tragedy for the American people — an electrical storm hit the East Coast and brought down Netflix, Pinterest and Instagram. You could practically hear the crazy stay-at-home cat people howling.

Come Saturday morning, old seasons of ’30 Rock’ went unwatched, people were forced to use real tack boards to pin everything they love, and breakfasts of scrambled eggs and toast couldn’t be photographed. Yes, we’re being a little dramatic here, but the whole situation was undoubtedly frustrating.

You have Mother Nature to blame for this mass inconvenience. A harsh electrical storm ripped through Ohio, Indiana, Washington, West Virginia and Virgina, leaving many without power to battle the accompanying heat, and six people were reportedly killed from the intense weather.
