    • 2020 October 1, Àlex Gutiérrez, “Les amebes menjacervells contra els pescaclics honestos”, in Ara Balears‎:
      El pescaclics banal, doncs, és com la pega dolça negra: millor prendre'l només de tant en tant.
      Banal clickbait, then, is like black licorice: it's best to have a piece of it only once in a while.
