So, I am perusing news headlines as I usually do when avoiding actual work. And this headline leaps out at me

Ostrich Shell Necklace: Paleolithic Must

And I of course click on it, beacuse I am interested in all jewelry: be it paleolithic or tiffany's.

So when I get to the article, do they have a picture of this famed ostrich shell necklace?

No.

They have this.


wtf?

I know what an ostrich looks like, I want to see the NECKLACE.

It would be like if I were like "Hey guys, I got the most gorgeous pearl necklace last night, wanna see it?




or

Hey guys! Check out my new diamond ring!! It's emerald cut




Heads up to journalists: If you are going to entice your readers with headlines, you better follow up with the goods. And by goods I mean pictures. Pictures of ostrich shell necklaces.
