Title: Windows Error
Post by: @gentOrange on February 14, 2004, 01:52:19 AM

alternatives to "your computer has performed an illegal operation." In haiku...

__________________________________________

Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot,
Order shall return.
__________________________________________

Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.
__________________________________________

Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
_________________________________________

Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.
__________________________________________

Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
_________________________________________

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.
_________________________________________

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.
_________________________________________

Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
_________________________________________

You step in the stream,
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.
_________________________________________

Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.
_________________________________________

Having been erased.
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.
_________________________________________

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

Haha, I laughed at all those. I expecially liked this one:
A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.  :lol:

If these came up as error messages, I might actually laugh... Right before I shove my foot through the front of my computer case.
