Dear Ms Takken [The first k is silent.]

Regarding your new job title, over there in the right column, I'm just wondering—what is general click bait?

-Weirdly Attracted

Dear Weirdly,

Not what, who. The General's original surname was Bate, but he changed it to Bait in order to conceal his identity while on loan (briefly) to the CIA. When he later tried to change it back he found somebody else had claimed it (just like that!) and the closest match available was Bate9876. This looked pretty dorky on that little nameplate generals wear on their pockets, so he just kept Bait. In spite of it all, he requires our special care.
