Ways to irk a Lyssie, #1

You know something that really drives me nuts? Any time there's a promo for any given fantasy movie or game and it is described as "beyond imagination".

Because you know what? No. No it isn't. It is not beyond imagination because it exists, and therefore someone has imagined it. If it's supposed to be beyond the viewer's imagination, "beyond anything you've ever imagined", well, you're selling your audience awfully short. How do you know I haven't imagined something like this, or something grander? It also almost sounds like you're saying it's beyond the viewer's CAPABILITY for imagination, in which case congrats on insulting your whole target audience!

Just. Augh. Quit saying it's "beyond imagination" because IT'S NOT. IT IS NEVER BEYOND IMAGINATION, I DON'T CARE HOW GOOD IT IS. STOP IT. Find a new superlative to describe how awesome this new fantasy is, so I can stop twitching.

... I feel better now. XD
