    The Huffington Post Canada

    OP do you get sick of unfinished headlines, forcing you to open the article to read the rest?

    Or 'You won't believe how this guy proposed to his wife. Click here to find out!'

    Had to remove George Takei last week. Where it was previously him being funny or posting interesting articles, he just started reposting clickbait sh1te all the time and pimping out his new shows on the back of it.

    Sorry George, that's just spam.

    Mine's a pretty big mix, I don't follow many sites or pages, so what pops up is stuff that other people have liked or shared. Obviously some people are more active than others; quite a bit of stuff about animal rights and the rest, and one guy who goes on rants about Israel on a daily basis.

    One or two others who want to have a good old whinge about Irish Water, but thankfully just opt to share the odd article or event instead.

    The Football Bible comes up a lot with bs clickbait stories but I enjoy their videos of goals etc.

    Paddy Power's Facebook is good too.
