Ah, yes, the profound wisdom of error messages 🍋✨: "Just a moment...Enable #JavaScript and #cookies to continue." Because clearly, the best way to solve life's problems is by blaming the user for their tech settings 🤦‍♂️.

Embarrassing

I have a problem with cutesy copy, particularly when it comes to error messages. I understand that they are trying to be friendly and personable, but it’s usually not what the user wants or needs. Often, a friendly error message just leads to more confusion.

Take Firefox’s “well, this is embarrassing”.

I was once asked for advice about this error message.

“Should I be embarrassed?”, I was asked.
