You've Lost that Surfing Feeling

Dear Advice Girl,
I feel like the internet is getting kind of stale. Do you have any idea how it could reinvent itself for our continued amusement?

Hugs and Kisses,
Your Laptop

Dear Laptop,

Sometimes Advice Girl will be sitting at her desk, diligently looking up per diem in Jerusalem or the most recent standardized exchange rate for Egypt, when she’ll have a perfectly normal question like “What college will my kids go to?” or “Will I have a cold this weekend?” And trustingly, she’ll turn to her good friend Google, only to discover…this information canNOT be found on the internet! Well. Some information age this is. All Advice Girl is saying is that, the internet knows everything. Is it too much to ask that it share its knowledge of the future?

  1. It's a good point. The internet runs on magic, so surely there's enough magic to be able to tell the future, right? Unless...unless there's a magic shortage! That's the only explanation! AAAGH!! Panic! We're all doomed!
