The BSoD would be hilarious for me, except for the scare that it might not work on restart. Also, losing tons of work. :-(

I like the Firefox "Well, this is embarrassing" message.

I've seen the blue screen in XP for sure.

Another hilarious one is when an individual tab crashes in Chrome and "He's dead, Jim!" pops up. Too bad the whole thing freezes more often than that, and we all know how much I hate it when things simply freeze up.

This should be a death message in Tile World 2. Tongue Or is it already?

LOL

I'm surprised no one has mentioned StickyKeys when you press the Shift key 5+ times. It annoys me like no other.

Thumbs up My reaction exactly. Hooray for condescending messages...

This. Particularly when it comes to games (Klick and Play, anyone) that prominently feature the Shift key.

Didn't DOOM feature the Shift key for firing or jumping or something?

Probably. Dang DOS-based games.
