Its pretty much a false praise site though. Has anyone ever gotten either: "you suck!" or "Dr. Suess"?
edit: forgot a word
You suck and Dr Suess should never be used in the same sentence. Holy cow, whats wrong with you?!

)

Maybe the website is just a scam so the guy who set it up can plagiarize all your works

Darn it, that is what was missing from my edit.
I shouldn't have posted before I read it.

Didn't know what to type, so I pasted some of my dreams in there.
For the latest Cantr dream (the one in SH), I got Cory Doctorow.
For my most recent non-cantr dream (with the cliff and the bunk beds and 6:15 and whatnot), I got David Foster Wallace.
And for another non-Cantr dream I haven't told y'all about (it was about pirates and a gas station), I got Stephen King.

Cory Dildorow (suggestion post);
David Foster Wallace (autobiographic paragraph for school);
Arthur Conan Doyle (see below what I have written);
Gran wrote:The night was dark and the drums rolled; the anger of God was upon them, for He would not let their sins be forgotten. The sky fell black and heavy, joined the Earth and poisoned the air: it was the Dawn of War. None would survive that night, but their feats would be mighty, their tragedy even greater.
Either it's very good writting, or Mr. Doyle was not such a good writer or shit is broken.

For some reason, the 'it was a dark and stormy night' (paraphrase I know) reminded me of Snoopy.

I finally did this with the write up of my non-Cantr dream, and I got back David Foster Wallace.

Got back H. P. Lovecraft for this:
Snickie wrote:And the snow continued to fall from the grey clouds above, like feathers in the wind. It fell into my mouth onto my awaiting tongue, with a taste like frozen wine, sweet and savoury. It fell onto the ground, covering the stone around us with fine white powder. It fell upon his shoulders and into his hair, and soon was thick enough to make him appear ancient. His clear blue eyes reflected the skies above the clouds, the sky that fought with the clouds for dominion over the realm of the heavens above. Yet below, the ground was calm as it quietly accepted its dose of white crystalline powder. The air was cold, our visibly vaporised breaths constant proof of the frigidity on our bare skins. However, the serenity the scene offered provided an invisible barrier against the cold, enforced tenfold by his warm presence.
All was well, and would continue to be well until the very end of the age.
I wonder how many people actually know who I'm featuring in the scene.Not sure how that connects....
All it really is is imagery I just now came up with whereas Lovecraft was famous for his works of horror.

I pasted a bunch of different essay chunks, and got HP Lovecraft every time, so I guess it's consistent

I tried some Cantr & blog stuff and got Lewis Carrol & JK Rowling. Yay!
