O/T: More Windows Haiku...

by Steve Smit » Sat, 01 Jun 2002 00:38:29

...unfortunately not nearly as funny as the first round:

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Seeing my great fault
Through darkening blue windows
I begin again

- - - - - - - - - - - -

The code was willing,
It considered your request,
But the chips were weak.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Errors have occurred.
We won't tell you where or why.
Lazy programmers.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

wind catches lily
scatt'ring petals to the wind
segmentation fault

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Everything is gone;
Your life's work has been destroyed.
Squeeze trigger (yes/no)?

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Server's poor response
Not quick enough for browser.
Timed out, plum blossom.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Login incorrect.
Only perfect spellers may
enter this system.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Printer not ready.
Could be a fatal error.
Have a pen handy?

- - - - - - - - - - - -

This site has been moved.
We'd tell you where, but then we'd
have to delete you.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

First snow, then silence.
This thousand dollar screen dies
so beautifully.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

The Web site you seek
cannot be located but
endless others exist

- - - - - - - - - - - -

A crash reduces
your expensive computer
to a simple stone.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

No keyboard present
Hit F1 to continue
Zen engineering?

- - - - - - - - - - - -

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

- - - - - - - - - - - -

To have no errors
Would be life without meaning
No struggle, no joy.

I tried, honest.  Google returned abt. 20,000 instances of Windows+haiku,
but they all seemed to be cc's of the first batch.

Yep, same here Steve.......do we have any Japanese among our regulars
who could guide us in our search for wisdom and truth ?

Or are they too busy getting ready for the World Cup.....

Windows is quite bad
But not as bad as football
Common sense is dead.

<snip>

Some others - feeble, but original :-)

Unmountable Boot
Use recovery console
No Boot CD? Oh dear.

Activation Code
See label on the casing,
Or Bill will hunt you down.

WSC
Please don't ask us for the dates.
But meditate still.

GP4 will come
When cherry tree falls in storm
But GP2 same.

404 not found
What is the use of anger
When May blossoms bloom?

Flat screen LCD
Shows beautiful fixed pixels
Until you scroll them.

Searching for your file
Perhaps it is in heaven
Or Recycle Bin.

Error - disk is full.
Confucius he say "Be wise
and don't reformat".

Semicolon found
When end of file expected
Press F1 for help.

AMD chip found.
They are Ferrari sponsors
So must be destroyed.

Cannot delete file
Because it is still in use
The waving ash grows.

Not bad really :-), don't think they totally comply with the "rules" of
Haiku though....?
