Very funny, Haiku Error Messages

Posted by Gabbix2 on March 10, 2003, at 15:25:31

In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft

error messages with Haiku poetry messages.
Here are 16 actual error messages from Japan.

The Web site you seek

Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist.
- ------------------------------------------
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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Isn't that better than "your computer has performed an illegal
operation"?

you have posted words
unseen readers feel the sting
you must be civil

Title stands alone
Amazon waits unsummoned
Explain on Admin

You speak of sorrow
This board speaks of chemistry
