The thing I absolutely hate the most.
This method is set up by what looks like a cool or innocent article, video, etc, but once the viewer clicks on it, the creator gets profit.
On YouTube, there are many of these YouTubers. They often use overused thumbnails such as boobs, or annoying things IN the thumbnails, such as circles or arrows. These are usually attractive to many viewers, and once they get their hands on that video, the creator gains money just from people clicking.
Some may also use misleading titles. Again, this is another way to lure viewers into a video that just has a misleading title put there on purpose. And again, this is another way the creator can get money.
There are some YouTubers I've come across, and as a very underrated YouTuber, I find this act selfish and a lazy way to get money. If there's a day I get popular, I would never use this stupid method to gain money; I'd be out of my house, earning money at a REAL job.

Clickbait is just the worst thing I've seen. And I hate how some people get away with it, like YouTubers do not get terminated for spam content.

Someone who is new to something, usually a video game, and have no idea what's going on. Most will not listen to advice from people who are not noobs. Some people find noobs annoying.
I'm considered a noob myself to a video game I recently started playing, but you can call me the good version of a noob; I'm willing to listen to others and thank them for the advice.

I'm serious. I'm one of the rare types of noobs--the less annoying, mature one that's willing to receive advice.
