The Psychic Website

I think Dictionary.com may be psychic. Not fake-psychic as in those web sites that pretend to figure out which card you were looking at on an earlier page (If you pay close attention, you’ll discover that they’ve substituted all the cards for others with the same colors). In the case of Dictionary.com, I mean genuine clairvoyance.
Just a few minutes ago I finished writing a short story for my creative writing class. The story was difficult to write because it’s supposed to be character-driven and when I found out what “character driven” means, I realized that most of my non-technical writing tends to be more plot-driven. (If you were wondering, my technical writing tends to be more paycheck-driven.) Wanting to do a good job on this one, I went back to do another round of proofreading.
Wanting to make sure I was using the word reverie correctly, I skipped over to Dictionary.com to look it up. At the top of the results page, right before the first definition, there was a pair of sponsored links. One of them said, in large bold letters:

Don’t Blow it Now

Well, I’ll certainly try not to.

  1. It said “10 rules of fat burning” for me, and I’m trying to lose weight…so you might be right!
    And it might be just the “Reverie” page, too.
