I'm really disappointed there is no 418.

Also: Would I listen to a rap song called "Request Entity Too Large?" Yes.

Too much LaTeX. What's a tatu? And you're missing a $.

Sometimes I laugh at things as I pretend to understand them, just in case someone is watching me...

901 - The server of the post refuses to explain any of the jokes contained within the requested URI. The server is always (at least) a $ short.

Mad props for including Krispy Kreme at 400.

200 is, of course, perfect.

It is high time the technical community does something about this.

Tatu was a Russian band of possibly pretend school-aged lesbians created for the titillation of people who like that sort of thing.

How soon we forget.

Finally got the page to load.
I only understand half of the jokes, but they are most amusing where I do get them.

I don't get the 101 one at all, though.
I know what a Nicki Minaj is... but is it a reference to the fact that she's basically a female playing at drag queen, or something else?

Help me Metafilter, you are my only hope.

True, but it does exist in the wild in a major implementation - Twitter's API uses it to indicate you're being rate-limited.

Songs are embedded from Spotify, which doesn't work in my country :-(

Why not YouTube?
