Some time back I made a post here (I think) about the trend of links after news stories, links that seemed to have a common theme, like "You wont believe what happens next..."

I cannot find that thread anywhere, I wonder if it got purged in the spam wave we had...?

Anyway, they have a name for that, click bait, and I got a laugh out of this Simpson clip
