The Daily Mess Fooled By Click Bait Plus While Drinking Why Do We Shout Out Cheers

0:00Think of it as your flat screen. You know how you can go from Hulu to Netflix to Disney to Paramount Plus. Okay, well, that's exactly what arrow.net is. ARROE.net. It is the power of choice. In fact, one of the best podcasts we've got is that voice. I've spent the past 10 seasons with those on NBC's The Voice. Well, now that it's back for its next season, let's talk about that history as to how we got up to where we are right now. That voice only on arrow.net. ARROE.net. Enjoy your exploration. Hey, it's me. That question guy. You know the dude that's always asking questions because it's so much fun to do the research. Here's one for you. Why do we endlessly fall for this thing called clickbait? Plus, while sharing a glass of wine or champagne, why is it that people always say, cheers. What's going on here? My name is Arrow. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate.

1:02I call it the daily mess because it's a chronological walk through an everyday world. It is my daily writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw things to the side because we think we're going to deal with it later on. If you do not write it down, you're not going to remember to do it. Well, when a subject arrives inside of me, dude, it is time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but by doing the research, the picture is always going to become clearer. This is the daily mess. What is it about clickbait on the internet? And why is it that we keep jumping into it? Although it's fake, we still read it anyway. I was very much afraid to do any type of research on clickbait in fear that it was going to involve my Instagram, my Facebook, my CNN news page. I mean, clickbait always shows up in the absolutely most bizarre times and spaces. The top click getters are associated with money. Of course, it's about making money. Here's the winning line.

2:03People are losing blank amount of money every month. And here's why coming in at number two in the clickbait world is this one. Doctors are warning about this. What? What? What? What? What? Exactly. Mystery still carries inside this digital age. And no one can explain what we just found. Now, here's the thing. We also have celebrity clickbaits. And the reason why is because there will be something attached to it that says so and so has disappeared. Oh, who is it? The most effective clickbait is based on something that is actually plausible or partly true. But it's not a wild lie. A compelling headline can take a really vent and exaggerate the implication. A good example of how that has changed things is when scientists have discovered something under the ocean. How can we best explain this mystery? See, the critics are going to be loving the second one because we've gone a little bit further in that headline that fabricates the claim.

3:08Clickbait, it works because as the national inquirer once said, inquisitive minds want to know. Hey, coming up next, why when we share a glass of wine or champagne do people go cheers? Hey, thanks for coming back to the Daily Mass while sharing a glass of wine, champagne or even water. Why do people always shout out cheers? Well, it's called a spoken toast, a wish for good health, happiness and good fortune for those on the opposite side of the cheers. It was the ancient Greeks and Romans who raised their cups during celebrations or rituals. They were drinking to the health or success of someone. So why do we even clink our glasses? Well, the goal is to make drinking morally fun. It is said that everyone's wine is supposedly supposed to be mixed a little bit more during that impact. Really? Saying cheers ripens the atmosphere.

4:08It carries energy into your sipping. Cheers can be used at your biggest celebrations, but it's more effective when two people in dimly lit rooms clink their glasses and whisper. Cheers. See, it's not the glass. It's the celebration. It's the people who are standing with us. It's there in that moment of now that cheers that things pretty much say, yeah, yeah, this is very nice. This is so much better than a verbal argument. And whatever we do, the hidden away rule when it comes to saying cheers, don't just shout it out in a group. Have a reason and a purpose as to why we're saying cheers, wait for the right moment and then bring it in. I'm Aaron. That's the Daily Mass.
