Subject: FW: Microsloth Error Message Haikus
In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft Error
messages with Haiku poetry messages.
Haiku poetry has strict construction rules. Each poem has only three lines,
17 syllables: five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, five in
the third.
Haikus are used to communicate a timeless message often achieving a wistful,
yearning and powerful insight through extreme brevity - the essence of Zen:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
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.
First snow, then silence.
This thousand-dollar screen dies
So beautifully.
The Tao that is seen
Is not the true Tao-until
You bring fresh toner.
