BSOD Humor
Had a great time yesterday, a friend of mine came over. After dinner he was looking at some t-shirts since an advertisement had distracted him from his initial IMDB search. Some how this made him decide he wanted to make my desktop background a BSOD. I’m a big fan of the BSOD screensaver, and think its funny, whats even funnier is he figured out how to change my background on KDE (although it’s not that hard)
I saw the BSOD with the horrible background just staring at me. It was the classic, “there was an error processing your error”. I never see such things on my Linux box, I’m more used to failed reboots from failing to compile a kernel feature, so jokingly I click on the message box while laughing:
“Why won’t this go away”
Some people find humor in other peoples agony, this is why the TV series (and movies) Jackass do so well. I find humor in BSOD’s and hope that other Linux admin’s do to. But having a BSOD on your Linux box that’s not a screen saver is quite annoying, its like “Gates strikes back”
Here’s a poster I found amusing the other day:
