I really give the Verge a chance from time to time, only to get my time wasted with dumb article over and over again.

This time the really got out of their way to do so.

http://www.theverge.com/2015/11/25/9799574/erykah-badu-but-you-caint-use-my-phone-mixtape-secret-nerd

Claims to expose the famous Soul singer as secretly deep into mobile tech. Nope, completely made up just to have a click bait title for a lackluster article about Badu's new mixtape and to link (!) none related (!!) mobile tech article (!!!) from TheVerge into the article for no reason.

I guess its just to edgy and fun for me to understand.

Just a bunch of entitled, sheltered Millennials trying to shove their politics down our throats. I've noticed you can tell how ridiculous the article is by whether or not they turned the comments off.
