stormdogWhile going through Livejournal looking for dates for my permanent residency application, I found this from October 2010. It made me laugh again.

Windows just crashed (in the middle of writing something of course) with a "Bad Pool Caller" error. My mind went to a smirking bare-chested man with a cruel grin sitting atop a lifeguard chair. "Alright you brats, out of the pool! Adult swim time!"
"No!" chorus the fresh-faced youngsters as their game of beach-ball catch splashes to an abrupt stop. "Please sir; we've only been in for ten minutes!"
"Watch me not care!" shouts the guard, an evil glint in his eye. "Out now or you'll be down to *five* minutes like *last* time!"
With a tear gathering at the corner of his eye, the young boy with the ball sniffles, "You're a bad pool caller."

Or maybe it's just a couple of 1s and 0s out of place somewhere in the guts of this infernal thing. But I like the former explanation better.
