I'm interested to know if you still think the title is great after you get the article to load. Of course it caught my attention, but after reading it I was left with a, "wait this is a horror story?" feeling. I suppose to many this seems like a huge vulnerability, but if we treat everything with these extreme sentiments, then nothing will actually be treated with special attention. Conversely, if no articles are given these sorts of titles, maybe no one will click them.
