Outrage-click

The act of clicking on an internet article because it's headline has provoked a sense of outrage within the reader.

The articles are typically clickbait designed to generate a sense of outrage, leading to more page views and advertising revenue. They are rarely enlightening or teach the reader anything new, and could be construed as an intellectual waste of time.

I foolishly outrage-clicked on an article about flat earthers, even though they are ultimately inconsequential and not worth anybody's time thinking about.

Click Hit

When a song goes into the top 10s (sometimes #1) for a few days or weeks and drops more than 20 points due to it only being streamed by people who are online or their fan base that the general public never picked up.

Barb: Did you see that Trollz went #1?
Lamb: But it dropped over 30 points, it was just a click hit

"I was on Reddit last week just lurking around r/sluttysingles. Not being a creepy prevert and definitely not "abusing the primate" (yea right... Prevert!)... I "accidently" clicked a link in one of the posts and I got the Click Crabs! Now My email and phone never stop. My computer keeps crashing and I have 238 friend requests from gorgeous young women on FB that need help flying home cuz grandma is sick.

Click war

A fierce online competition where numerous people rapidly attempt to secure limited items, such as event tickets, exclusive merchandise, or online deals, often resulting in website crashes and frustration.

I tried to get tickets for the concert, but the click war was insane—everything sold out in seconds!
