zomg, an entry relating to Magic!
Magicthegathering.com's question of the day, for july 11:

Q: I noticed that on the spoiler text for Call the Skybreaker it says "every orison". Is that a typo or is it really supposed to be orison...whatever that means?
–Dan, Windsor, ON, Canada

Call the SkybreakerA: From Doug Beyer, Magic Creative Writer:

Thanks for your question, Dan. An orison is a word that means "petition to a deity or higher spirit." It's essentially a prayer, but with a slightly less traditionally religious connotation. The Skybreaker hears the pleas of victims of dark beings all across the plane of Shadowmoor, and as you cast the spell again and again, it comes to the aid of every one of them.




Gosh, maybe you ought to learn what a DICTIONARY is for, Dan the Dumbass. In fact, maybe you should quit living in Canada, and cross the river and live in Detroit, so you can claim to be as stupid as most AMURRIKINS are today.

WTF.

I mean, I know my vocabulary is not average, but for realz. I knew what orison meant, and even if I hadn't, the intarwebz will teach you many things you don't know.

SRSLY.

Well apparently they thought it was a good enough question to pick it, Mister Opinionated. Besides, "orison" does sound a bit like it could be a fictional peoples or place; and after all, when someone doesn't think that something has real world connotation they're very unlikely to go looking for more about it in the real world. Better to simply go to the source, which his man thought he was doing.

But ironically, the interwebs will not teach you how to get intellegent off of the interwebs. It's true.
