    There was a discussion on the Oregon trail thread (not labeled as such) about the click bait title. Some people actually defended it. No harm in an object lesson.

    Actually, the title is completed in the first post and promises you a free picture. There it is!

    Not at all. I intentionally did it as click bait to prove the anti- click bait point. I would think that would be obvious. No one should be using click bait titles as it makes it hard on everyone else.

    Not what i said.

    My second post labeled it as click bait.

    And everyone who was in the Oregon trail thread knows exactly what this is about. Given how much you are struggling with the concept of satire, clearly in going to have to redouble my educational efforts. I may need to focus my efforts on you to get you up to speed with everyone else who seems to have already grasped the point.
