Earlier today I was out at Chuck E. Cheese the mechanical rat child casino for a kid’s birthday party. While I was there I noticed 2 of the machines were throwing error messages. One minute some kids are playing a game, and the next minute the game stops and Windows shows an error about a hard drive problem. Then another game was throwing an error about a jam, and the coin hopper potentially being empty.

Out of curiosity I did test the controllers on the game with the hard drive issue to see if they would move the mouse, but they didn’t. Oh well.

I see enough error messages at work…must they follow me around in public, too?
