Can you send me the link to the page you're trying to see? It seems fine to me.

Go to Twitter. It keeps replying to itself, saying "you're not studying that language," about three or four times every five minutes. It still works though and replies to tweets sent to it.

I know it's not funny but :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Also, it began with this tweet. Basically please ensure you don't put @langchallenge inside the quotation marks.
A quick fix for rdearman would be to remove all pending tweets before the bot can reply to itself.

It reminds me of the science fiction trope where you tell the computer/android/robot, "What I'm telling you right now is a lie," and it has a meltdown and explodes.
