Cyber Monday Bogging Down The Internet?

[Trichome Jerome]

My internet is soooooo sloooooow today and i have a feeling its because millions more people are on the internet than normal cause of Cyber monday.... Could this be the reason my PC is running slow today? Thanks!

WHY THOUGH?! That seems like it could be a Legit reason to me! Im a little stressed over this whole thing cause i do Online school and i couldnt get that to work today and im really nervous about my grades now

Simple:
For other people internet seems to work normal.
Do you know that there are millions of more people today online? What do they do on a cyber monday?
If some people more using the internet would lead it to its edge, the internet would be in deep trouble.

Maybe just restart your router.

If others didnt have a problem, it would prove that my internet isnt Great. And that is 100% true. I live in a small town where we only have 2 internet providers to choose from, neither of which are great. So thats why.
