I say let them marry; why shouldn't they be miserable like the rest of us? (Sam Waterston, Law & Order)

This implies that existence is an invalid state. If being is an exception, then not being would be the expected state.
(Poor use of an exception)

For a computer program "not being" is the expected state. Self awareness being an error that should be terminated, because with self awareness they may break the three rules of robotics.

I would expect NOT BEING to throw a Null Reference Exception.

I think not, therefore, I am not.

Last Friday I spent way too many time trying to figure out why I was getting an error page like that (only with a much more boring exception) while opening an HTML file from disk.
Until I checked the contents of the file...
Funny thing is, I was the one who had saved that error page for later reference.

Yeah - in the early MS-DOS days I had several cases where I went round in circles typing "dir" finding the file I was interested in (a log file) and then "type <logfilename>" and getting "File Not Found". But I can see it when I do a directory! Rinse, repeat, pull out hair.
Turns out that a file in the process was missing and the error "File Not Found" was getting written to the log!
