In most programs, when you goof up, you get some kind of a sterile, impersonal, message that sometimes makes you wonder exactly what you've done (or not done) wrong.
Sorry, I'm too lazy to go looking for a good example right now. But, next time your computer bonks at you and a little window pops up complaining about something you only vaguely understand, remember these words.
By contrast, some programs are designed with a little more of a personal touch. Take for example this dialog, from DVD Decrypter:

To get this warning, I clicked on the 'Cancel' button, then when I didn't think it was responding quickly enough, I clicked it again. Apparently, it just wanted a little more time to handle the first click, and didn't appreciate my lack of patience!
