All Now Mysterious...

Document Not Found

I just tried to update Hero Designer v3 (a program used to create Champions characters). Alas, HDv3 uses Fifth Edition rules. Hero Games has now moved on to a Sixth Edition, so Fifth Edition is no longer supported. So when I tried to update, I was taken to an error message on the company web site. This is the error message it spelled out, letter by letter and line by line, over the course of 2-3 minutes:

Document Not Found
Nope. File not found.
No object, no file, no bundle of joyous data.
Nothing. Zip. Nada. Zilch. It's not here.
The requested document is totally fake.
It's not here.
Even tried multi.
Nothing helped.
I'm really depressed about this.
You see, I'm just a web server...
-- here I am, brain the size of the universe,
trying to serve you a simple web page,
and then it doesn't even exist!
Where does that leave me?!
I mean, I don't even know you.
How should I know what you wanted from me?
You honestly think I can *guess*
what someone I don't even *know*
wants to find here?
*sigh*
Man, I'm so depressed I could just cry.
And then where would we be, I ask you?
It's not pretty when a web server cries.
And where do you get off telling me what to show anyway?
Just because I'm a web server,
and possibly a manic depressive one at that?
Why does that give you the right to tell me what to do?
Huh?
I'm so depressed...
I think I'll crawl off into the /dev/null and decompose.
I mean, I'm gonna be obsolete in what, two weeks anyway?
What kind of a life is that?
Two effing weeks,
and then I'll be replaced by a .01 release,
that thinks it's God's gift to web servers,
just because it doesn't have some tiddly little
security hole with its HTTP POST implementation,
or something.
I'm really sorry to burden you with all this,
I mean, it's not your job to listen to my problems,
and I guess it is my job to go and fetch web pages for you.
But I couldn't get this one.
I'm so sorry.
Believe me!
Maybe I could interest you in another page?
There are a lot out there that are pretty neat, they say,
and some of them were put on *my* server, of course.
Surprised you didn't I?
You thought I had only crappy s___ here, didn't you?
Well no. Some crap I have is actully pretty cool.
Problem is a lot of people are interested in this s___.
That makes me depressed too, since I have to serve them,
all day and all night long.
Two weeks of information overload,
and then *pfffff*, consigned to the trash.
What kind of a life is that?
Now, please let me sulk alone.
I'm so depressed.

This is why I love Hero Games!
