Power branch
Today's blooper is the site of a german-based Internet company. They offer all kind of services and added some hotlinks and jokes to make their site more enjoyable. The problem is that humor is seldom easily translated into a different language, and on no account using a piece of dumb software.
Let's begin with the super-DaU story (a stupid dummy user who cannot find the famous "Any key"):
... a daily to strip with King Snake soft occurred,
which had to occur once: a super DaU
(stupidest user who can be assumed).
King Snake soft: King Snake soft, good day.
DaU: Good day, my name is Daumeier. I have there a problem with my computer.
King Snake soft: Which, Mr. Daumeier?
DaU: On my keyboard a key is missing.
King Snake soft: Which?
DaU: The Enikei key.
King Snake soft: For what do you need this key, Mr. Daumeier?
DaU: The program requires this key.
King Snake soft: What is for a program?
DaU: I do not know that at all, but it wants that I press the Enikei key.
I have already the Strg, which tries alto out and great power branch, but also nothing
does there.
Great power branch ? I suspected that it denoted a key, but I had to cheat and call the original german text to find out the incredible truth: it is the name of the Shift key :-)
King Snake soft: Mr. Daumeier, which is even on your monitor?
DaU: A blumenvase.
King Snake soft: No, I mean, read out you times, which is on your monitor.
DaU: Ai bi em.
King Snake soft: No Mr. Daumeier, which is on your screen, I mean.
DaU: Moment, hangs on clothes.
King Snake soft: Mr. Daumeier!........Herr Daumeier!
DaU: Thus, now I have him stretched, there am however to nothing drauf.
King Snake soft: Mr. Daumeier, you look once on your display and you read out to
me once exactly, which is on it written.
DaU: Oh so, you meant... - oh apology! There is: " Please press any key to of continue! "
King Snake soft: Oh, you mean the Any key key. Their computer announces itself thus in English.
DaU: No, if which says, then it beeps only.
King Snake soft: Press times the RETURN key.
DaU: Now geht's!!! That is thus the Enikei key; that could in addition, drauf write!
Thank you again and on wiederhoeren.
King Snake soft: Please, ask, no cause.
Then the webmaster reproduced the famous joke Wife 1.0, but this english version is just haarstrauebend:
Hello man, there you with installation and Deinstallationsprogrammen confronted is simple
constantly must I you over a few dangers refer to-has you similar empirical values?
..Letztes year managed a friend of me a Upgrade of FRIEND 5,0 on WIFE 1,0. Its experiences
thereby were haarstraeubend!
(...) That can be done so far that other applications must with your inquiring and if
necessary no resources assigned gotten. Thus some applications are no longer
executable after the installation of WIFE 1,0. In addition belong above all SKAT 7,0,
EXTREMBESAUFEN 3,4 and TAVERN ROUTE 5.0. To all abundance the system seems to suffer from
day to day more from these circumstances.
(...) On provided university stable - routines should rely one in no case.
Any remainders in the system almost always remain. A further problem, which most versions of
FRIEND have, is the annoying request, nevertheless a Upgrade on WIFE 1,0 zubesorgen itself.
Finally, let's have a quick look at their many lefts (links):
