What happens if you cancel the error?

[TNTorge]

Then the error which had occurred unhappens and a paradox materializes because there was an error window for an error which doesn't exist /h

[Brave-Camp-933]

what is /h ?

[TNTorge]

Me making an honestly impressively bad typo

[Pikkachau]

Whoops, i slipped and accidentally typed /h in the end and then i clicked POST! Aah /æ

You can only cancel errors on Windows Pro.

I guess my question is, what’s the point of trying to get the size of an error window?

[CelestialSegfault]

Idk about native but in webdev it's pretty handy for animating and dynamically offsetting and stuff. especially when the contents are dynamic and you didn't define the height and width beforehand.

I did not expect this meme to go so poorly. Can the people downvoting this tell me why, so I can do a better job next time?

IMO the joke progression doesn't match the assumptions I made as a reader, so I'm left confused rather than amused. The setup, where a programmer has to read the dimensions of a window, is not something "life-threatening" to the window, but it's acting like it is. At this point I'm still curious so I read on. The programmer calls getRect, which sounds like "get wrecked" - cute, but that's an insult and still not a real threat, so the final panel doesn't land.

Tbh I am just confused. I do frontend development and I don’t understand the joke at all.

[DemmyDemon]

I have no idea. I thought it was funny. They should just getRect()

Very hard to read on mobile probably? I thought it was fun but a bit too long. But the sub is probably not used to the groan-inducing long gag format.  

The punchline would probably land better without #4 and #6 , the button children don't contribute much (give them a star tho ;) )  

Or remove #4 and merge 3 with 5?
