Periodically I get confused about which of the four machines I regularly work with is the one I'm currently using, and enter a wrong command. When I use ^t instead of ^v in an attempt to get to a new page, Emacs thoughtfully expresses its confusion with the cheerful message "There is no other window, twit." I like a machine that gets cheerfully abusive, occasionally. It keeps one awake.
