Added DiffLines:

'''Basic Trope''': An inanimate object comes off as [[DeadpanSnarker snide]] even though it isn't sentient.
* '''Straight''': Alice is trying to access a certain website, but keeps getting an error message which reads: "Nice try, loser!"
* '''Exaggerated''': The error message [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech is a very long lecture insulting Alice]].
* '''Downplayed''': The error message just says, "Try again" which isn't particularly snarky but begins to sound snarky when she tries again multiple times.
* '''Justified''': Bob, who designed either Alice's computer or the website she's trying to access, thought it would be funny to have rude error messages.
* '''Inverted''':
** The error message reads, "Sorry, but I'm afraid you cannot access this site. It's not personal, though."
** Alice insults her computer.
* '''Subverted''':
** It turns out that Alice's computer ''is'' sentient.
** Then, a second message reads, "Just joking."
* '''Double Subverted''':

** A ''third'' message reads, "That wasn't a nice try at all!"
* '''Parodied''':
* '''Zigzagged''': Some error messages are rude, some are polite, and some are neutral.

** Alice gets no error message.
** The error message just reads "Page not found".

* '''Lampshaded''': "My computer and I can't reach an agreement."
* '''Invoked''': Bob designs the computer or the website to have that snarky error message.
* '''Exploited''':
* '''Defied''': Bob considers designing the snarky error message but worries that someone would get offended and sue, so he doesn't.
* '''Discussed''': "My computer keeps playing rude error messages."
* '''Conversed''': "Why are error messages in that show always so snide?"
* '''Implied''': Alice is seen saying, "There's no need to be rude" to her computer.
