Is there something wrong with me if I find that really funny?

(I convinced myself yesterday that the message that my program had 'stopped running' was a Watership Down reference.)

I really hope that next time you're feeling really low, somebody comes and laughs at you as well.

I constantly invite people to laugh at me, which is why I assumed you were doing the same. Different folks, different uses of LiveJournal. Sincerely sorry.

Apology accepted, & sometimes that kind of thing does seem funny to me, and sometimes I do invite people to laugh at me. But as a general rule of thumb if I'm sufficiently shaky to be crying over nothing, I'm unlikely to find it funny.

OTOH maybe I shouldn't have posted it at all if I wasn't happy for people to say what they wanted in response. <shrug>

Some while ago, around the turn of the year, when things were very bad, some application refused to do something and suggested I check the help file. This latter returned the message 'no help is presently available'. Which was about right.

gcc occasionally produces warnings about classes that "have no friends". Not first the place I expected to find poignancy...
