Same.

I can't be bothered with teaser headings, that includes on news articles.

@Seagoon_ @CEOofmyhouse56 And more often than not, the answer is lame.

"You'll never believe what this '90s heartthrob looks like now!"

It looks like him, but 30 years older.

And I would believe it, because he was famous 30 years ago.

"You'll never believe what the kids of this celebrity are doing now!"

Going to uni.

Because they're in their early 20s.

Celebrities with lookalike kids. Yep. That's usually how it works.
