Error messages are annoying and disturbing. When they prompted, that means our work for the entire night is screwed. They are frequent visitors particularly if you are Windows users. In fact, sometimes they showed up so frequent that we’ve got no choice but to live with it.

However, scratching your head over these pop-up error messages will not help either. To reduce the level of stress, creative designers decided to do something about these error pop-up windows. They edited the error messages and the interfaces to bring out the humor side of it.

Here’s a collection of 40+ funny and edited error messages for a good laugh. We’ve also included one ultimate (and real) error message at the end of this article. The next time you see an error message, just smile :)
