UPDATE: Confirmation of death... and possible rebirth?

Could this be the end? Could the king of kewt indie terminology and hipster naivete be moving out into the real world? Here's the message he left his adoring fans this evening:

Hey tweeple… Not sure if this blog is for me any more. Had a good run, but maybe this is it. Plenty of other alt sites out there to choose from. Dropped some sweet memes, made some cool new internet friends, but maybe my future is in ‘real life’ instead of the internet.

You did your best, Carles. You were a good blog.

Best,
Carles

Of course, like many weighty topics in Carles' innocent world, it is phrased as a question; the post is entitled "Should Carles Retire?"

Of late, posts on the site, while still hilarious and insightful, have admittedly felt a bit repetitive. Could the all-knowing Carles have sensed this through the power of self-awareness?

His Alt Report simply has the ominous message - "Smell ya later" "Bye".

Fans everywhere are up in arms, those who have worn the 'I am Carles' t-shirt are slowly piecing together their identity in the event that the site goes down thus making it impossible for them to be Carles. Or wonderfully retro.

All reasonable analysis seems to be pointing towards the fact that Carles is either very sick and dying or prepping to launch the greatest meme of all time.

It seems only appropriate that if Carles dies, that Carles would have to do an inappropriate meme about his own death. We aren't sure if/how/whether or not this is possible yet.

We'll keep you posted.

R.I.P. Carles
