Seeing that this is now happening as a standard form of journalism (thanks Upworthy and ViralNova) I figured it was time to post a master thread of all the ridiculous, sensationalized click-bait headlines that now pervade the internet. Of course, some will argue that this is just good copy and headline writing, but I disagree because it's no better than scam selling a crap product through a deceptive headline.

Yes, these headlines works and are effective. But NO, they never deliver the value they promise. Ever feel deceived by this shit? Fooled? Sad that one of these articles just stole 3 minutes of your life?

This shit type of journalism is no different than a two-buck informercial scammer selling some worthless diet product that doesn't work.

Anytime you find a ridiculous click-bait headline that sounds oh so good but delivers NOTHING, feel free to post it. This sorry excuse for "news" made it to the front page of Yahoo.

I feel sorry for anyone that waits 30 seconds for an ad to complete and then spends 30 seconds watching the video. Nice headline though.
