PC LOAD LETTER - in Popular Culture

In Popular Culture

The term was popularized by the comedy film Office Space. Michael Bolton (David Herman), one of the three main characters, reads the error message from the status display on a printer, after which he asks, "PC LOAD LETTER? The fuck does that mean?" This message appears on the display just after Bolton fills the printer's tray with blank paper. Frustrations such as this lead the main characters of the film to take revenge on the malfunctioning printer by stealing it, taking it to a field and destroying it with a baseball bat.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    Kings govern by popular assemblies only when they cannot do without them.
    Charles James Fox (1749–1806)

    The genius of American culture and its integrity comes from fidelity to the light. Plain as day, we say. Happy as the day is long. Early to bed, early to rise. American virtues are daylight virtues: honesty, integrity, plain speech. We say yes when we mean yes and no when we mean no, and all else comes from the evil one. America presumes innocence and even the right to happiness.
    Richard Rodriguez (b. 1944)
