This is an old favorite of mine as well. Maybe all 'error' messages could be reworked to be a bit more lighthearted? They don't have any mechanics behind them and are clearly directed at the player rather than the character. Maybe we should just get this topic rolling and do some suggestions?
I'm trying here but can't think of anything. If we have a list of the 'error messages' (the ones in red that tell you you can't do something) maybe people will get some inspiration while looking at them
