+# Background
+
+In Chrome, when you're using a self signed SSL certificate
+you'll sometimes see a warning message that you have to click through before
+being allowed on to your page.
+
+Newer versions of Chrome take this further, where if your self signed certificate
+is super out of date, you don't even get the option to click through and ignore
+the message.
+
+# The Workaround
+
+First of all, please note that you should only ever use this on servers you
+control and are absolutely sure are not compromised. These warnings are there
+for a reason.
+
+Having said that, if you're reading this you're probably a web developer and know
+what you're doing.
+
+The simple workaround here is just to type `badidea` anywhere into the page. The
+page will load as normal, and it will continue to do so as long as your session
+continues.
