What does it mean when I weigh myself and the scales say "ERR"?

Asked by janbb (63200points) July 15th, 2010

I know what it means when I weigh myself and the scales say “Low” but what does “ERR” mean? Does it really know I ate a chocolate chip muffin for breakfast?

It means you don’t weigh enough, you need to eat another chocolate chip muffin. Geez @janbb, what are you, like 94 pounds? :-)

@chyna I was hoping that’s what it meant!

Scale is on unbalanced ground, or battery is low.

Maybe the scale is simply clearing its throat and stalling for time.

ERRor?
Or: “Err, are you sure you want to risk destroying me?”~

It’s saying “Err, one person at a time, please” ~

Yeah – I thought it might be something like all of the above, except for @dpworkin ‘s farfetched and fantastical suggestion. No lunch for me!

Oh mercy. I went to get one, but tripped over a big, homemade cinnamon roll, which I brought home, piled the butter on, warmed it up so the butter was melting and dripping….washed it down with a big glass of milk.

Get’s on @janbb‘s scales….Jumpin’ JehoseFAT woman!!!” (Your scales aren’t very nice!!)

Another useful trick is to hold your breath.
