Yellowstone Supervolcano Bigger Than Thought
Really? Bigger than thought? Is thought quantitative? How big is thought exactly? What qualifies as a "Supervolcano"? Wouldn't the addition of the precursor "super" indicate that said volcano is, in fact, big?
It's journalists like these - yes, I'm talking about today's Yahoo! News article - that make me ashamed to be a writer. Come on guys, I understand you have limited space in which to enthrall the housewives that check their spam filter 12 times a day because that's the only thing their children have taught them to do on the computer. But lets be real here.
Here are some suitable alternatives (all within the five word allotment)
1. HUGE Volcano In Yellowstone Park
2. Yellowstone Volcano Not Normal: Super
3. Thoughts Are Small, Volcano Not
4. Vacations Cancelled Due To Supervolcano (I even used their stupid word in that one)
5. Firegods Rejoice: Supervolcano in Yellowstone
P.S. This version of the word "winning" is brought to you by Charlie Sheen.
