These are getting too obvious because they're actual clickbait article titles.

I find they work best for sharing with people who aren't familiar with the joke. I just shared the pit bull one with a friend who owns a pit and it went over well.

I just had a thought. If Donald Trump becomes President, I think the Onion should announce that it's closing up shop because the satirical has fully become reality.

Either that, or they pretend that he's this intelligent, kind, enlightened philosopher king, who is humble in all things, and guides the country with a velvet glove.

Usage Note: The first recorded use of harebrained dates to 1548. The spelling hairbrained also has a long history, going back to the 1500s when hair was a variant spelling of hare. The hair variant was preserved in Scotland into the 1700s, and as a result it is impossible to tell exactly when people began writing hairbrained in the belief that the word means "having a hair-sized brain" rather than "with no more sense than a hare." While hairbrained continues to be used, the standard spelling of the word is harebrained.

I thought the original post was talking about a show where the season two character goes back in time and tries to change the course of season 1 events and it is some super complicated predestined time travel show where all these hints in season 1 now suddenly take on a whole new meaning
