I love the ones where the teaser is never in the list of 500 “interesting facts”!!! I see this even being done in email ads from places I deal with. They show an item on sale when you click on it, you see several dozen other items, but never the one in the email that you are actually interested in.
Too true. One thing I’ve learned from sad experience is that a banner proclaiming something like “Hilarious put-down by [name of celebrity] utterly destroys [name of other celebrity]” is that after scrolling through screen after screen of guff and distractions one finally gets to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, which turns out to be an absolutely witless exchange and, at worst, mildly disapproving. (Who writes these headlines, anyway?)

Excuse me but there are some intrusive ads covering your comic.

This darn thing is broken! I’ve been clicking on all those and nothing happens! Especially the first one, seems very educational. Fix it!

Couldn’t get through this one. My click-bait avoidance habits are too strong. :)

The internet ads like that make the ads in Popular Mechanix and comic books look like the operational definition of honesty. “Sell Grit.”
