I don't know about you but, as a systems admin, I do get weary of people constantly badgering me as to what may or may not be wrong with their systems. This little app is guaranteed (Kind of) to put their curiosity to rest as they walk away from you wondering just what exactly a Localized Backplane Anomaly Reference really is. Watch your boss enter a fugue state while they try to churn through what an Intermittent Swapfile Stack-dump Problem may do to the grand scheme of things. All you do is spin the wheels and display the results. Or maybe you just want something down and dirty. If that's the case, just hit the random button. But wait! There's more! Just in case you want to quickly email that newly named problem to your superiors, Every time you generate an excuse, it is copied to the clipboard, ready for fast pasting.
