28. File Not Found (404) - The most famous error is the most boring. Nothing is interesting about not finding something.
27. Proxy Authentication Required (407) - The only cool term involving the word "proxy" is "Proxy War." Talking about proxy authentication just makes me want to go to sleep.
26. Requested Range Not Satisfiable (416) - What? "Satisfiable" isn't even a real word.
25. URI Too Long (414) - A "Uniform Resource Identifier" sounds like a low-level job in military logistics that focuses on choosing the sources of cloth for new BDUs.
24. Unsupported Media Type (415) - Your server requires that media files use a different file type? Whatever. It's like nobody is accepting my Windows 98 RealPlayer files anymore!
23. Upgrade Required (426) - I'm not even sure what this means. It sounds boring though and I don't want to upgrade anything. Just let me be!
22. Request Header Fields Too Large (431) - I don't care.
21. I'm a Teapot (418) - This one isn't even real, and was introduced as an April's Fool joke. It's a lame one, and there are much funnier things that the Internet Engineering Task Force could have come up with if they really wanted to try for a classic joke about Client Errors.
20. Payment Required (402) - I don't even think this error code is used. And there is nothing epic about telling me I have to pay you.
19. Unprocessable Entity (422) - Sort of like the meat in Vienna sausages.
18. Request Timeout (408) - The only way this one sounds at all interesting is if you think of it as a parent requesting the Internet to sit in a corner because it's been naughty. Probably from hosting all that German midget S&M porn.
17. Unauthorized (401) - This has a slight hint of intrigue to it, because you wonder why you're not authorized. But other than that, it doesn't really sound that epic, does it?
16. Precondition Required (428) - So, like, the opposite of American insurance companies then, huh?
15. Precondition Failed (412) - The same as precondition required, but the word "failed" is cooler.
14. Failed Dependency (424) - Just like a drug addiction.
13. Misdirected Request (421) - Like if you accidentally sexted your mom on the phone when you think you're talking to someone else.
12. Expectation Failed (417) - The story of your life, loser.
11. Method Not Allowed (405) - What your girlfriend tells you when you try anal?
10. Locked (423) - What the hell? Someone LOCKED the damn internet! Does anyone have an extra set of keys?
9. Too Many Requests (429) - It's sort of epic that so many people are trying to go to some website that it simply stops working and explodes, right?
8. Bad Request (400) - Sounds naughty!
7. Not Acceptable (406) - Also very naughty! You type something and the Internet, being your mom, tells you that it's not acceptable. Probably because you were searching for that German midget S&M porn yet again.
6. Unavailable For Legal Reasons (451) - It sounds like whatever you typed into the Internet to get this message was so damn naughty that it's illegal. The FBI are probably driving to your house right now. RUN! (***Update June 27, 2017 - Just saw this referenced on Jeopardy! as the Final Jeopardy question. It's a reference to Fahrenheit 451. I'm sort of embarrassed that I didn't get it***).
5. Payload Too Large (413) - The same title as the NASA-themed erotica I wrote.
4. Conflict (409) - Wow, conflict is pretty epic. Why not just name this error "war" or "death?"
3. Forbidden (403) - Yikes. This is forbidden! Very foreboding. Like getting cursed after breaking into a mummy's tomb.
2. Length Required (411) - That's what she said.
1. Gone (410) - This website isn't "not found," nor "unavailable," nor "unauthorized," nor "unprocessable." It's just GONE. Gone forever. Like the dark blackness of the infinite void of the nevermore. Brutal. I wonder what the hell happened to it?
