A hypertext is any text that prompts the reader to access the text below the text, its subtext, through clicking. The reader's click is generally motivated by a skepticism toward the voracity or linguistic integrity of the hyperlink because of its appearance or context. In other words, while the reader is reading a text, the reader comes across a portion of text that appears to function differently than its surrounding text. Therefor a hypertext is a text that situates within a larger text that smuggles additional texts in precisely through its materio-linguistic instability. A hypertext is a phantom haunting a text, transparentizing at a moment's notice. A hypertext is a radicalized, suicide bomber text, annihilating itself for the sake of opening up new meanings.
All hypertexts are clickable but there are different methods for clicking a hypertext, depending on the type of hypertext and how that hypertext is coded. Many hypertexts are clicked by focusing one's cursor on the hypertext in order to access a weblink smuggled within the larger text. Its called a click because of the auditory click of the computer mouse.
Acronyms are clicked in an entirely different way: they are clicked with one's skepticism toward the linguistic integrity of the acronym's primary text. This click gives the reader access to the language smuggled into the larger text through its arrangement of first letters. Rather than an auditory click, clicking an acronym is a click in your mind. It clicks. YOLO, SCUBA, NASA, CAPTCHA, ICHTHYS...click.
