      The boss was right - sarcasm in error messages is rarely helpful (thus contrary to their purpose) and suggests arrogance on the author's part, so is best avoided.

      In one place I worked, the error message "member not found" was display to one of the (male) PHBs. The story of the PHB's member having gone missing went around like wildfire.
