Years ago, Mad Magazine had something like this, the George Washington Ad Agency (we cannot tell a lie). They seemed to lose accounts quickly. Reading many web sites these days, you gotta separate the wheat from the turds.
They left out the unbelievably cool “photo” that isn’t really in the linked article: 50 worst planes ever with a PhotoShopped 747 with top removed (open air passenger seating). Spoiler: there is neither such a plane nor any reference to that picture when you go to the link.
I run across some of these clickbait stories from time to time. If it looks truly interesting, I’ll google the story to bypass the seemingly endless screens leading to an anticlimactic finish.
Ruben was going to put one where the photo was a girl with huge boobs, but he knew we would just click furiously on it and forget all the other panels.

I read this comic every day, but I almost scrolled past it this time, thinking it was an advertisement. Well done, Ruben.

Well, at least there isn’t one of those useless celebrity nonsense stories!

Ads like these are why I use an adblocker.

I clicked on one that is about the diamond on tape measures and after clicking thru 2 dozen ads, they never explain why it’s there. I just googled it.

Gut doctor says to avoid this food at all cost…
The link expects you to pay to find out what the heck they are talking about.
Avoid their ads at all costs.
“Gut Doctor” is that an official title?

I really hate those things. Even the relatively innocuous “ten best cities to retire in” kind of thing (which by definition have only ten screens).
