    God, how I hate those multi-page click-bait stories. They suck you in with an enticing headline (which frequently turns out to be b.s.) and it takes twenty minutes to click through twenty-seven pages of ads. I have taken to just noting the subject matter and doing an Internet search to bring up the story a different way.

    Very useful idea, thank you.

    I agree. I have gone to them because of an interesting image and after (like you said) 27 clicks you find nothing even remotely close to the image that drew you in. On top of that you have to scroll down on every page to click the proceed to next page button. As soon as I see that now I just back right out of there.

    I wish some programmer whizzes would create an "add on" to the browser that would send a protest "kneel down" or "you suck" to the people who do this.
