scintillating celebrity gossip
I scan the headlines at yahoo’s front page, and see this headline, which … I guess counts as “clickbait”.
Dwayne Johnson explains why he pees in water bottles
Click and I get this second half of the headline.
‘The gyms that I work out in don’t have a bathroom’
I fail to understand what more information might be provided in the five or six paragraphs that follow — all of no more than two sentences — that I need to know in which to understand the story. The cause and effect are pretty well summed up now. I think that there is a reason that second half of the headline was not on the yahoo front page — all suspense would have been removed with no reason to click and ” find out” — as you are no longer wondering ” wait. Is he doing a ‘Marlon Brandon’ type thing?” The tease, Paul Harvey waits to give you “The Rest of the Story” — turns out anti-climactic.
Should he be running for high office, Johnson is burnishing an ” every man” status — He is You… If you are a long haul trucker.
