27 Reasons why 21 Reason Titles are better than 11 Reason Titles!

In the recent times, the platform for the stupid people to show off their stupidity or 'internet' as they call it, has taken up this weird way of getting users to click on their stories.
By the way, the title of this post was in no way planned to entice you to read it. Just don't pay attention to the title.

This trend of title shaming has been going for sometime. I believe it was buzzed or one of its sister websites who might have started it. Here are some example headlines:

• You will never believe what happened.......
• 11 reasons why you should click this.......
• What happened next will blow your.........
• This is how you make.........
• This big multi national company did something you will never believe......
• This will make your heart melt.....
• 10 things you didn't know.......
• ......this happened. What happened next will melt your........

The reason for my rant and hence this post is that, now the indian news media has picked up on this recently. Major news outlets like NDTV, CNN-IBN, Times, etc, have been running news article with this sort of titles. 

We all know that Indian media is only beaten in SH*T rankings by fox news and its sister news channels, but I guess this is another low for the so called 'news' media, completely sold out to the corporates and bollywood.
