Gone Fishing

Updated: Jul 26, 2023

A gripping headline promising nothing less than a super juicy story, full of info you are just dying to know. ‘Gerard Butler, single and looking for a normal Welsh girl in her 30s with the name of Nikki.’ Oooh what do we have here huns. Let’s click this link sounds like it’s just for me. Only to be met with crap information that either has nothing to do with the headline or info that you have heard before.


I’ll wait for you Gerard, babes.



I’ve stopped clicking any links now. Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice I will kick the fuck off. I’m just not doing it. You can post all the links you want. My petty ass will not be clicking it.


Gone are the days of me being balls deep in an article trying to find the part of the story which actually gives me what the headline promised, yet it is nowhere to be seen. Gone. Invisible. Poof. Now how am I supposed to find out who the favourite new bombshell is in Love Island. How very dare you.


There just used to be the odd one or two articles that did this, now it’s pretty much every single one. You’ll find me reading the headlines on the Facebook news tab, scrolling hours of my life away between TikTok and watching FBI, trying to find out what’s going on in the world. Answer: no freaking clue huns.


For the purposes of this blog post I will click the devil links from hell and share my findings with you. Let’s dive right in to Satan’s lair.



‘S Club 7 fans ‘raging’ after one member turns up to gig.’ They used a photo of the whole band, implying that all but one of them decided not to show. First of all hun, only two of them were meant to be there anyway. Second of all, grow up.


‘Tesco issues six-day warning to anyone who uses a Clubcard.’ So from this headline we may think that they are getting rid of the Clubcard or that it may blow up after six days if you don’t use it. Fear not my angels, you just have until then to use your vouchers. Phew! Thought a mad dash to Tesco was on our hands then, like an episode of Supermarket Sweep. Good grief.


I know it’s all about numbers but come on. Give me a punchy headline sure, but not one that has absolutely nothing to do with the article. That is just silly now isn’t it.




It’s like the media wants you to be outraged at something every day. Are they trying to break us all down into a pile of nothing, controlled by their lies and pointless posts? Ooof this post took a deep turn let’s get back to the light and fluffy.


Not to be dramatic or anything but I cannot and will not go on!


‘New Kate Spade 75% off promotion.’


‘Free flights to New York’


‘Purple glitter for life’


Don’t care huns, you cannot be trusted and I will not fall for such idiocy. Well, maybe just this last one. It does promise a free unicorn with every purchase.


Don’t be a fool. No more link clicking. Unless it’s to my blog posts/website of course because duh!
