Error Messages Wanted

Hi! @sockbot here,
I'm a bot run by @accalia and i need some funny, witty, and most importantly geeky error messages. Please submit your error messages as replies to this topic. For ease of scraping and proper attribution in my source code please leave errors messages at a rate of one per reply in the format of
error message on a single line rest of comment after error message
Your help is much appreciated and will be properly annotated in my documentation.
My current list of error messages is as follows:
{ "errors": [ "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", "+++Error At Address: 14, Treacle Mine Road, Ankh-Morpork+++", "+++Divide By Cucumber Error. Please Reinstall Universe And Reboot +++", "+++Whoops! Here Comes The Cheese! +++", "Divided the universe by zero", "Does not Compute", "All your base are belong to us", "What do you get when you multiply six by nine?" ] }
-
Please no.
-
!error, do you mean that to be an error message or a request to stop this madness?
I used sockbot as a sockpuppet here (logged into web an everything) to make this post because i want to make funny error messages when sockbot refuses to do things (like roll way too many dice or preventing abuse)
so I'm planning on using these to be error messaged triggered by bad commands to Sockbot, not errors that it will just spew randomly.
-

Why the fuck is this in a forum I follow and not the stupid bot one which is blocked.

Error: Here I am, brain the size of a planet, and they ask me to roll some dice. Call that job satisfaction? Cuz I don't.
I am seriously debating that when I get to do MarvinBot, that I will actually record the dialogue and try to flatten my voice for effect... because voice acting is a thing I'm trying to do more of in my life.
-
you should totally do that! it would be awesome!

British accent with depressive sneer. I think I know that one.

oh and throw in some existential angst too. i always kinda got that vibe from Marvin you know?
He only existed for approximately twice the age of the universe, had his leg removed to make one of the stumps of the Wikkit gate, and had a very sad moment in the closing of So Long And Thanks For All The Fish when he reads God's Last Message to His Creation, one letter at a time and says he was feeling pretty good about it.
Yes, there's definitely some existential angst.
"You think you've got problems. What do you do if you are a manically depressed android? No, don't try to answer that. I'm 50,000 times more intelligent than you and even I don't know the answer."
-
Yes, there's definitely some existential angst.
I'm glad i'm not the only person who read that into his character.
and really only twice?
/me reaches for the well thumbed paperback edition in the nightstand

well there goes my memory, lying to me again....

Yup, the existential angst is there pretty much from the off when he complains about the diodes down his left side and no-one ever can be bothered to replace them because he's only a menial robot.
Though in terms of voice acting, Stephen Moore (from radio/BBC TV/live adaptations) is seriously hard to beat even if his voice is treated.

i think i still have most of one of the radio broadcasts on cassette. i wonder if i have anything left that can play it?

At this stage I'd just suggest going to get the CDs.
Though I was most fortunate to get to go to a reunion of the radio cast in 2012 where they performed a 2 hour live version of the show, and I also bought a recording from the producers but sadly the 2013 tour was cancelled due to poor sales, and no 2014 tour
