The site became so popular so quickly that its founder, Mathew Carpenter, has suspended the service and basically asked everyone to chill out.

“Hi guys, I’m the founder of this website,” Carpenter wrote on Product Hunt. “Please stop buying this horrible glitter product — I’m sick of dealing with it. Sincerely, Mat.”

The Internet is a weird place.
