I would guess a DNS lookup issue, but weird nevertheless. Dunno what my bb10 (O2UK) dns settings are.

Perhaps there's a whole world of funny pics out there which you're oblivious to. :)

I remember having some dns issues the other day.
I do not seem to have a problem today.
Where can I find this picture?

This is like one of those social experiments, where everybody stares up at the sky and pretends they see something.  Or like "the emperor's new clothes".  I'll wait for a screenshot of this supposed picture, kthx!  ;)

Here ya go:

:-P

It appears that this thread has thrown our respective DNS servers into an ontological disagreement.
Let's not push it too far, or the Internet might have a full-blown existential crisis.

PS - the url is http://1.1.1.2/bmi/th00.deviantart.net/fs39/PRE/f/2008/320/6/8/Another_Zelda_Meme_ARGH_by_rueyeet.jpg

...could be some mobile-network-type url mashing.

Some additional info on the problem:

Something for the admins to look at (perhaps add these url prefixes/domains to a blacklist?) - can't see that it could be realistically solved at the client end either way (when posting, or when viewing).

Mobile phones: is there anything they can't break?
