Seriously though I’m not sure how helpful this screen is. It only is going to happen if there is some serious problem. The first thing a user will do is look up what the screen means.
Putting a funny joke on the screen might make people laugh even though they are likely having a bad time.
It should say the following in big easy to read letters:
Don’t Panic
So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad it had to come to this
(but you can panic a little bit, as a treat)
“Don’t tell me, tell the damn kernel!”

I can’t read those messages anyway thanks to my Joo Janta 200 Super-Chromatic Peril Sensitive Sunglasses
