Stool sample
A hexadecimal stool sample historically associated with core-dump state. When a process shits the bed at kernel level, it leaves 0xDEFEC8ED behind for the next poor bastard.
Bowel status
Process evacuated. Heap soiled. Stack smeared. Buffers flushed. Garbage collector saw the mess and declined responsibility.
Fecal telemetry
Bristol type 7. Dignity at zero percent. Unexpected bowel movement detected in privileged mode. Toilet state unknown.
Recovery protocol
Drop core. Flush twice. Reboot from a clean image. Do not restore from the contaminated heap under any circumstances.
