The definition of irony?

Setting one's xscreensaver to BSOD, and then hours later the Linux box 
has a kernel panic... with the Windows blue screen of death on the screen.

I dont know.  A guy I used to work with at a Major insurance company in
Denver Colorado saw the BSOD one day.  From about 30 feet away he
stopped, looked at it and then me.  "You know, I thought you were
running windows for a second but then realized the font was wrong..."
He was very serious.
