Psst I am sure this is not authentic of course!

True revenge follows -

"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 17 syllables; 5 syllables in the first, 7 in the second, 5 in the third. They are used to communicate a timeless message, often achieving a wistful, yearning and powerful insight through extreme brevity.


Here are 16 actual error messages from Japan. (*BULLSHIT*)
