Oh no you di'n't!

This are all the messages you get when you try to do something you really can't do.

Messages

• Trying to buy something from yourself:
  • You can't buy stuff from yourself. What a preposterous hypothesis! Did Steve tell you you could do that?

• Trying to over drink:
  • Drinking that would be a bad idea. Your bladder might go pop!

• Trying to over eat:
  • You can't fit that into your stomach.

• Trying to use a device when your out of Technology Points (TP):
  • You don't have enough Technology Points to use this device!

• Not selecting an item to buy:
  • You need to select an item to buy first!

• Buying something you can't afford:
  • You can't afford that.

• Buying zero or nothing of something in a NPC store:
  • You need to tell me how many you'd like to buy!

• Buying negative zero of something in a NPC store:
  • Don't be silly. You can't buy zero of something. Well, you can, but what's the point?

• Buying negative one or lower of something in a NPC store:
  • How can you possibly buy a negative number of something?

• Trying to generate more than three random jokes per day:
  • Despite much fiddling on your behalf, the device stubbornly refuses to do anything. Perhaps it's had enough for one day?

• Trying to watch a movie with less than 2 turns:
  • It takes 2 turns to watch a movie. You're going to need to come back another time.

• Trying to use a holographic pair o' dice when you've gotten snake eyes:
  • You open up the device, but instead of the usual pair o' dice showing, say, a seven or eleven, you see a pair o' evil looking red snake eyes watching you. Looks like you need to wait until later before you can use this again.

Did Steve tell you could do that is a possible reference to Steve Sawyer who told every one about hope and everything was possible.
