This. Is. Hilarious.

Microsoft wants you to remember that you’re not alone when you’re having problems with your computer. That’s true. If you have a Windows machine, chances are you’ve had it crash, stop responding or had it boot into Safe Mode. Actually, chances are you’ve probably had all three happen … quarterly, at least.

But again, you’re not alone. There are tons of people running Windows who have the same thing happen. Really, you should think of it like a membership to a community. You’re part of the group when you see those things happen. Just like the guy in Spain who’s cursing in Spanish at his Windows computer for doing the same thing. Or the guy in France who’s flicking his cigarette on his computer as Windows boots into Safe Mode.

To commemorate these events, Microsoft wants you to remember that it really is a small world after all. — That’s why a known “feature” of Safe Mode is that it will randomly plat “It’s a Small World” while its in safe mode.

Seriously.

This applies to NT4, 98SE, 95, 2000pro and 2000 server. You can check out the KB article for yourself here.

How nice of them. — At least they didn’t use the theme song to the Twilight Zone, which probably would have been more appropriate.
