Yeah, my reddit account is exclusively for the communities around a couple mangas I read. As soon as the SpyxFamily and Akane-banashi communities here reach comparable levels, I will gladly jump ship.

I'm pretty sure it's for the same reason that people love them, i.e. they're cheesy and self-indulgent - which, I mean, are pretty much prerequisites of the power metal genre.

Pantera. Maybe it was Dimebag's death that caused it, but holy shit Phil is fucking awful.

I could give a shit less about Hunter being indicted, I'm sure he broke the law and deserves jail. I'm merely pointing out that if the title of your report on that looks like it was written by fucking Ben Shapiro, then your organization clearly cares less about reporting the facts than it does pushing a narrative so I will turn to some place that doesn't feel the need to spray paint glitter and a neon sign around the words they want you to notice.

I wasn't critiquing grammar, I was critiquing the unprofessional practice of turning the headline into a clickbait title of a youtube video that would fit right in on a playlist titled "Triggered SJWs getting rekt vol. 630." No legitimate news source would do that (case in point, the AP article you yourself linked). It's obnoxious and is only good for outing the website as one with extremely poor journalistic standards and integrity.

My rule of thumb is that any youtube channel or news website that randomly capitalizes words in the headline isn't worth paying attention to.
