This vid actually makes sense considering pewdiepie made it.

Ah, clickbaits everywhere. Do you often fall on them?

Hyperbolic video titles in youtube are often obvious and preposterous, I haven't seen any convincing clickbaits for a while...

It makes me physically ill that these people actually exist, and they make money, and that people are actually entertained by this to a profitable degree. Fortunately for me, YouTube knows I'm not a troglodyte so these shitty bottom tier youtube channels don't show up in my recommended feed. So it's an entirely new and morbidly interesting experience seeing this garbage.

clickbait is good for youtube and life in general if you disagree then you're irrelevant

I dislike clickbait, and there are some times when I fall for it on YouTube because of misleading titles and thumbnails. But I've learned never to click on of those ads at the end of articles and blogs that say shit like "This 90 year old grandma got rid of her sag bags in less than five minutes using this cream. Try it today"... shit like that is just cancer to the internet.

That's not click bait and neither is this.

That's probably the most obvious clickbait... I say that all ads in the internet are generally a clickbait, or otherwise unhealthy

Yeah, so bring yourself a stake and a golden wafer in case of emergency

I'd rather be irrelevant than to be relevant with a bunch of cretins

Makes sense, as a casual youtube watcher these clickbaits seldom show up.

Leafy's titles are relevant, though.

Pyrocynical's clickbait makes sense due to the fact that the UK separated from Europe. xDD

blah blah blah, we get it, you have superior taste and must express your sense of superiority at every noticed oppurtunity

Am I by the ocean, or how else am I smelling this salt in the breeeze..?

OT: Quality video, but not much will change.

The fact he clicked on his on click bait must mean something.

Is the video supposed to be clickbait? The thumbnail just isn't strong enough bait (looks really boring). Maybe if there were ecchi pics instead, it might be more baitworthy.
Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you.
