404: Page Not Found

 

It has once been said that many numbers are far better than 404. 2, for example. Or 11, a prime number. But none of it's true. In fact,404 is the best number in the universe (other than 42)!

The reason why 404 is so cool is that it's always just a typing error, wrong address, or moved page away. All you have to do is type in any old random filename, try and access it on a site you know exists, and there's your 404. That easy. All of the time.

Also, consider how efficient the world could be if we all used 404 instead of "not found." My keys were 404! His brain is 404! Dog 404! Help, croc' 404 at Taronga Zoo! You see, it saves keystrokes and time, and in turn money. It's the new wave in efficiency. I'm sure you're impressed!

While we're talking about numbers, do you know what 6 didn't like 7? Because 7-8-9. I suppose they were brothers.
