Everybody hates click bait. It's like coming downstairs on Christmas morning to find a hundred awesomely wrapped presents waiting for you, but when you start to open them you realize there's nothing but cat poop inside. No, you won't believe it, and yes, your jaw will drop, but it'll be for all the wrong reasons, and it certainly won't be epic.

I'm giessing 'Intellectual Takeout' doesn't have many intellectual readers if they think the answer will surprise them
Thank you for your service, #stopclickbait although I would still watch this as it sounds really adorable.
That moment when boredpanda features its own clickbait article getting a comment from an anti-clickbait article guy on an article about stopping clickbait.
It literally circles his hand like: "HES TOUCHING HER SHOULDER!!!!! PROOF HE ABUSED HER!!!!!!" XD
My FB app is at 4% - so I guess some people are simply on social media a bit too much. It's definitely NOT true for everyone.
Funny, they post the picture snapped at the moment his wave looks like he's hailing Hitler...
Poor kid. And many people his age(and older or younger) think they are the most unfortunate people in the world just because they don't get a certain toy or whatever. This boy should be our role model. I wish I could help him!
We hide away what's dear to us so future generations will remember and honor us.
I live in WV, there is a huge drug problem, especially with heroin. Definitely a lot of unhappy people here.
Grown ups: When will she be old enough to use her as an excuse for a trip to Disney?
This will be more important when and if LiFi routers hit the market since they use infrared light instead of radio waves.
I think it's a reference from mystic messenger, a game. There's a line "Does Jumin Han is gay" my friend plays it
Load More Replies...Based on the spelling of the clickbait article, The next rumor is gonna be that they have young children that can't write very well writing the article.
And it is DELICIOUS!! It is why I eat all my steaks rare. No need to add any kind of flavoring!
The worlds richest man takes the same stupid photos at Grand Canyon as I do :-)
Misuse of their, they're, and there IS one of my biggest grammatical pet peeves. :)
And the castles aren't being given away, they're being leased for free and have to be returned in 50 years or something. So Italy is basically trying to get people to renovate their c**p and give it back.
If a nuclear bomb explodes nearby there won't be any cars, roads or you left so it's a mute point!
and knives will have warning stickers "Take care, this knife is sharp and may hurt you"
I had to re-read this several times to make sure I understood the concept. I still think I don't fully understand. More things that don't look alike: dogs and elephants, snakes and kangaroos, Revolutionary War pistols and air filters...

The shocking truth is that anyone with a cheap 3D printer and some old skateboards (or a gearhead dad, in my case) could have made these damn things and been a millionaire.
Lol, I'm not affected badly by it because I only follow reptile lovers
That would suck to park there and have a car above yours leaking oil...

Haha, I love the p**s-taking title! The only clickbait I'm willing to forgive
Free content like on this app is possible due to advertising. The sort is questionable. However those clickbait articles lets the user click through sometimes dozens of pages to find the answer to the title. Many of those #stopclickbait articles tell you even how many clicks they saved you. Love to follow them :) hilarious
I get so frustrated when teen students cite click bait as a SOURCE! It's not an article! It's a long teaser ad for a crappy product/scam!
I pretty sure there are more important things in the world to worry about
If you can't figure out from the title that an article is clickbait without someone having to tell you, maybe you should just avoid the internet. :-)
