The wife’s preordered copy is awaiting her return.

I'm easily confused.

What's the difference between ordering a copy and preordering?

Is it like prepreparing food or presale items? Which seem to basically mean preparing and sale.


Order it before it’s available to ship.

And they have to re-press it - basically, a First Edition

Not something anyone worried about in the past, but Discogs vinyl-philes are all about that shit, now

Spotify reported a record smashing 300 million streams of her new album in the first 24 hours.

Nah, MAGA doesn't have anything to worry about. :-)

Who'd've guessed Fox News would find a negative way to cover it.

Also, shouldn't professional copywriters know how to craft a sentence that doesn't confuse the reader? For clarity, the article was published anonymously because of a previous threat. The album wasn't given a harsh review because of it.

Clickbait technique, making its way more and more into mainstream outlets. So that IS professional copywriting these days.

The most maddening clickbait technique these days is having a clickbait headline, and then you start reading it, and it's just paragraph after paragraph of meaningless filler before you get to the who/why/what/when/where.

I assume this is to maximize some tracked metric, like how long an ad stays in the view of the reader.

But I'll get to the about the 3rd pargraph and then if I sense that tactic, it's a permanent personal ban hammer to the whole site that hosted it.

Any link that starts with "http://www.foxnews.com/" isn't gonna end well; ok, maybe a few laughs, but ....
