Blue Screen of Death heart

Here's a handsome Blue Screen of Death Valentine's heart. Kathrn Cramer calls it, "A stick-on icon for relationships with a blown motherboard: how to say its over on Valentine's Day."

Heart Sticker (Thanks, Kathryn!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

that’s no BSOD. it looks like a video card failure to me.

good idea but that doesn’t look like any bsod i’ve ever seen. if i saw that heart somewhere i’d say ‘hey, blue heart’ and never make the connection to bsod.

What BSOD is that?

Here are the Google Images for Blue Screen of Death. They all look like BSODs, and don’t look like this.

It’s a nice idea, though.

The BSOD is royal blue; this fail heart is closer to Twitter blue.
