I've been seeing "It did not go well" a lot recently in clickbait headlines

Usually along the lines of: "(Powerful, Trump-related person) tried to talk about (issue). It did not go well." (i.e. a bunch of people impotently tweeted insults at them)

Something I've seen in like half a dozen headlines about the Wikileaks/CIA story: How Afraid Should I Be?

Most people don’t want to think about their own death. If they do, it’s not in any sort of real way. We imagine floating around and haunting the people who have wronged us, for a short while. But it’s hard to grasp the permanence of what happens when you no longer live inside the flesh cage that encases your soul (or whatever you believe in).
