Can't resist a good clickbait title then am always disappointed

Today I was sucked in my "Kate and Wills' unusual bedroom arrangement". Even as I was clicking on the title I knew it wasn't going to be that unusual. But I clicked anyway. Guess what- their bedroom is on the ground floor.

Our "Famous celebrity's unique baby name" and it turns out to be Jon rather than John. And it's generally a celebrity I've never even heard of but I click anyway.

I'm sensible, level-headed, rational, and a total sucker. I am exactly the sort of person all these shitty articles are written for.

I am ashamed of myself.

I should be clicking on sensible articles about the state of the planet and the economy. Instead I'm clicking on "Mum of 11 is pregnant again and one of her kids sleeps in the kitchen cupboard".

😂 snap.
But I console myself that at least I don’t fall for the crap for sale on the adds on these articles.

And the "Such and such celeb now looks so slim and gorgeous " and "Such and such celeb is unrecognisable now" then when you click on , you have to scroll through loads if other so-called celebs first, and sometimes the one they name isn't even there!
