Do You Want to Report Your Non-Problem to Microsoft?

This cracked me up! For a few moments this morning, I couldn't connect to the Internet so I asked Windows (Vista... need I say more?) to "diagnose" the problem.


This is what came back:

"Windows did not find any problem with your Internet connection. (OK, cool! Thanks.) Do you want to report the problem to Microsoft? (But I thought you said there WAS no problem?!) Additional details about what went wrong can help create a solution. (But wait! You told me there's no problem, so why would I need a solution?) The report will be sent next time you go online. (But see, I AM online because... well, because, according to you, there's no problem!)"

    Microspeak is always fun to analyze!

    It's not saying there wasn't a problem with anything, just not one with your Internet connection.

    I really, really, really don't want Vista. At least not for a really, really, really long time. Ya know what I think is a hoot? The anonymous "It's not saying there wasn't a problem with anything, just not one with your internet connection." I detect just a hint of peevish-ness in that comment. Do you suppose it is Vista himself, commenting? And you KNOW Vista is a him. BWAHAHAHAHA. How many ways was I politically incorrect in this comment? I am sorry. I'm just in a really good, carefree mood, and I was missing you so I thought I'd drop by and sprinkle a little pixie dust in your comments. :)
