4. Wait. What?

Edited on Tue May-31-11 07:41 AM by Orrex

Leave out the noun after the verb, for instance Crystal interferometry will allow you to link interconnectedly and experience cosmic order. "Link" here is followed by an adverb, which usually modifies a noun.

Adverb usually modifies a noun, eh? I must've missed that lesson. Or else the author doesn't understand what adverbs are supposed to do, or maybe what nouns are.

Funny stuff, but I also think it would have been better if they'd shown an example of each rule. Rules 4, 8, and 9 have no listed examples, for instance.
