Okay, I need to define the word 'oracle' in a funny and informative way first. Let me start by recalling what an oracle is. From what I remember, an oracle is someone or something that provides guidance, often through divination. Like the ancient Greek oracles who gave prophecies. Maybe I can use that as a base.
Hmm, to make it hilarious, I should add some humor. Perhaps play on words? Or include a funny analogy. Let me think... Oracle 3000 is a meme game mod, right? So maybe referencing that could be funny for certain audiences. But I need to keep it general enough so it's understandable.
So the definition part: An oracle (or someone) is like a mystical fortune-teller or a source of wisdom, but with a humorous twist. Maybe compare it to a psychic pet, but that's not quite right. Wait, maybe "like Yoda but with more existential dread and less 'do' quotes." That's funny and informative.
For the example sentence, it needs to be edgy or unsettling. Using an oracle in a way that creeps someone out. Maybe something like an oracle predicting personal details about you in public. But how to make it unsettling? Perhaps "When you Googled your horoscope, the internet's oracle predicted you'd unknowingly spill state secrets at the DMV." Wait, that's maybe not too bad. Oracles are often associated with big organizations... but I need to be edgy.
Alternatively, using an ancient Greek oracle as a metaphor for something modern and intrusive. Like government surveillance acting as an oracle. But the example should use the word 'oracle' directly. Let me think of a sentence where consulting an oracle leads to unsettling consequences. Maybe "He followed the oracle's advice to move there, only to discover his neighbors were doppelgangers sent by fateâor something more sinister." Hmm, not quite.
Wait, maybe combine humor with horror. Like, "The oracle said 'close your eyes,' and when we opened them again, we weren't in the same room anymore." That's a bit dark but could work. Alternatively, use tech-related humor: "Our AI oracle suggested investing in llamas, which skyrocketed after a celebrity tweeted about them."
Wait, the example needs to be edgy or unsettling. Maybe something like an oracle giving cryptic advice that leads to madness. Let's go with that. So putting it all together.
First draft of definition: An oracle is like a mystical fortune-teller from ancient times, but imagine Yoda combined with a psychics' convention and a hint of Breaking Bad's Anton LaVern. Always speaks in riddles wrapped in enigmas, right? And maybe add something about modern oracles being Clippy or Siri gone crazy.
Example sentence: "After consulting the oracle, she realized her friends were fictional creationsâuntil they texted her back three times." That plays on the idea that an oracle's advice might be unsettling and make you question reality. Yeah, that's edgy but still uses 'oracle' in a modern context.
Wait, maybe check if that's correct. The example sentence should use 'oracle' as a noun or adjective? Probably as a noun. So "After consulting the oracle..." makes sense. Then the revelation about friends being fictional is unsettling because it questions reality. Okay, that works.
I need to make sure the humor comes through in both definition and example. Maybe add some playful language in the definition. Let me rephrase: "An oracle is basically a mix between Nostradamus meets Dr. Phil but with less 'absolutey' (get it? Like Absolut vodka) and more cryptic mumbling." That's a play on words with Absolute and making jokes about different types of oracles.
Putting it all together, the final answer should have a funny definition followed by an example sentence that's slightly creepy. Need to ensure clarity so that even if someone doesn't get the references (like Yoda or Clippy), it's still understandable. Maybe keep some puns but not rely too much on obscure references. The key is humor and informativeness balanced with edginess.
Definition of 'Oracle':
An oracle is your inner Nostradamus-meets-TotEMetaphor⢠hybridâa mystical seer who spouts riddles wrapped in enigmas, courtesy of existential dread. Think Yoda on meth, but instead of "Do or do not," they say, "Youâll either thrive... OR DIE." Theyâre the ancient equivalent of a cryptic horoscope (if your zodiac happened to include constellations under alien sky). Modern-day oracles might be clingy AI like Siri
after
3 a.m. or paranoid conspiracy theorists with prophetic Twitter streaks.

Example Sentence:
"After following the oracleâs advice to âtrust no humans,â she started coding her friendsâ social media bios as 'creepy cat emojis.'"
(The humor lies in subverting the idea of an oracleâturning existential guidance into absurd self-harm, while the unsettling twist is realizing even trivial actions stem from paranoid reliance on cryptic predictions.)
