    Aside from the subject of the article, when are we going to just stop with the “torched!” and “slammed!” and “destroys!” titles?? I hate them so much. Especially when someone “slams!” someone else. Like who the fuck came up with saying that.

      I’d never heard the word torched used that way before. I thought someone literally set her on fire.

      It’s only a matter of time before we see the headline:

      I hate it too, along with saying something “just” happened in the headline.

      Those are better than “throws shade”

      It’s to grab the readers attention and bring activity to the article and subsequent post. Worked really well, didn’t it?
