    It happens a lot to me, especially before I'm about to submit an answer. It gets annoying, I think it's another way for them to say that their servers aren't working too well.

    It seems like they always are doesn't it...

    I never got why they take breathers? Is it because they are working on something, then isn't that what coffee breaks are for? Haha, it makes no sense to me.

    I've come to a conclusion it must have an asthma problem, what with all the breathers it takes.

  • Because they have to take a breather right after they take their "coffee break". I think it's ridiculous.

    It's running around attempting to catch trolls, but they're too quick for Yahoo!, so Yahoo! is out of breath.

    That's what happens when you smoke for thirty years. Yahoo has bad smoker's cough and needs to breathe, a lot.

    It's called an attention getter. Take a break that is what it means.
