You see, the majority of Game of Thrones watchers try their best to watch the show live, or as soon as humanly possible, because the Internet cannot contain itself when it comes to spoilers, and no one wants to go into a rage spiral on a Sunday night. We’re all trying to relax. Shit.

But Sunday night, the streaming service HBO Now crashed in the middle of the episode. It wasn’t out for that long (according to @HBONowHelp, only about 30 minutes), but damn. Twitter users had some pretty hilarious reactions in the meantime, to which I think we all agree they were entitled.

Thoughts and prayers to the HBO Call Center staff right now. #HBOnow is down and it's Game of Thrones time! #GameofThrones

When HBO is down during the only hour it actually matters. Let's start a class action lawsuit #HBONow #gameofthrones pic.twitter.com/4TKsN1FxAN
