Terrible potential Buzzfeed articles

Post Reply New Topic

I've been brainstorming for some clickbait-y articles that you might potentially see on Buzzfeed. (I prefer Clickhole.) A couple of them came from a friend.

Thank you for poking fun at this annoying Interweb trend.
Some idiot comes up with the most ridiculous headline they can conjure, just to get people to click on it.
