A-47 Widowmaker

Not to be confused with a bazooka. A "current technology" portable shoulder mounted rocket launcher. It provides a multi-visual display of the target to identify range, height, size of target, etc. Max load is 1 rocket. Which is more than enough.
This A-47 Widowmaker is the new version of the cannon.

A Bunch of Widows

Boring, Uninteresting. Comes from the speculation that the Mars Volta's fifth album would be "a bunch of widows", "The Widow" being one of their hit singles.
I thought the party would be a blast, but no one brought booze so it was just a bunch of widows.

The most common, if not the only message you will see when linking to Microsoft's "solution pages" after using the error reportingfeature

Example: When my PC couldn't play music due to a "missing audio device error" I linked to this message screen.
So I went looking on message boards for similar issue and found one. The person posted about how Microsoft had nothing.
That forum entry was posted two YEARS before.
Me: Oh cool! I can just link to Microsoft's solution page! How convenient....

This problem was caused by Windows. This program was created by Microsoft Corporation. Microsoft Corporation does not currently have a solution for the problem that you reported.

Me: You've got to be kidding. Oh Cool! Windows has a built-in help program....

Windows F'ed in the A

On newer computers with Windows 2000 and XP, there is a keyboard shortcut "Windows + F". This shortcut will bring up a search window when pressed once. When held, however, multiple (into the hundreds and even thousands) of search windows will appear. The time held directly correlates with the number of search windows to appear. When held long enough, the computer may crash and may even need a restart. This is something done in many schools to screw around and pull a prank on a fellow, and later on, pissed off, classmate. It also adds an extra shock when one turns off the monitor making an unsuspecting victim.

Teachers are always stumped when they see this dilemma, and usually suggest restarting, thinking the computer just freaking out.

Uneducated users also don't know "Ctrl + W" and "Alt + F4" can be held to very quickly get rid of this problem. However, these shortcuts will not solve the problem if it is held long enough to crash.
Teacher: Why don't you come up to the board and show us this model.
Student 1: *Walks up to board*
Student 2: (Whilst student 1 is at board) *Presses and holds "Windows + F" for an extended period of time, then turns off monitor*
Student 1: *Walks back and turns on monitor, seeing the hundreds of search windows* "Son of a biiiitch, I got Windows F'ed in the A"

Student: Here's my assignment. I know it looks like a blank page, but I wrote it in invisible ink.
Teacher: Damn! It's more invisible than a black man in a car with tinted windows at 3AM! I wish I could give you an A+, but I can't mark it. You fail.
