The problem isn't that it's clickbait (in the sense of enticing or deceiving you with sensationalistic headlines). They deliver precisely what they promise, e.g., mashup of Jetsons theme and Game of Thrones theme. The problem is that the items are usually really, really lame.

Honestly, it's hard for me to hate on the prequels too much, because I saw them once each 10-15 years ago. I haven't revisited them, because they're shitty films. I barely remember them, except for the most egregious bits, though I remember how they made me feel generally (angry, confused, depressed).

With bright red asses, like baboons?

I remember getting so excited about this when it came out (Star Wars on TV, in my living room!), and then being crushed by its shittiness. Even as a little kid who was crazy about the Star Wars, and had very low standards, I thought: what the fuck?

Mine was a cheap piece of crap, but still had advantages: (a) as you said, so cheap that it's no big deal when it breaks; (b) much smaller than my smartphone; (c) with a touchscreen, it's easy to hit the wrong button and lose your place, which is really annoying if you're listening to a long podcast; (d) doesn't need

I got lost the other day, and my phone showed me the way. For an old man who had never used that feature before, it was like witchcraft.

Or…try Target.

I don't know what I'm doing. I'll stop now.

I just don't care about offending you losers (banter!).

I'm preemptively furious about the thought that even if every single one of us fucking hates it, it won't matter: we'll be stuck with it.

I've seen all the porn on Google…maybe I'll give this Bing a try.

My super-econo MP3 player just died on me, and the people at Best Buy laughed at me when I tried to replace it. I need a separate MP3 player: I have a system!

I have a bad feeling about this…

It's seriously obnoxious…brought to you by Duracell! Took me forever to find the comments, and figure out how to respond. Well, five minutes, but still, one wonders who thought, "this way is so much better!"

I don't think people want more facile mash-ups and less actual content. They just want less Cameron Esposito.

I barely know what Red Letter Media is, so my hatred of the prequels can't be derived from it. We don't need that website to tell us that certain things are objectively annoying (like Hayden Christensen). It's very probably true that I wouldn't have gone as bananas over Star Wars if I had been 30 years old in 1977.

He doesn't like you…I don't like you either!

Also last week: Elvis Costello (!!!). Lately WTF seems to be drawing its guests from my list of favorite people ever.
