God dammit, David, I do not need more of that right now!

But seriously, stop taking advantage of my morbid curiosity.

I don't have anything against guys who like r34, but I don't like to think about it. I do not pretend to understand some people's attraction to the ponies.

Here's a nice pic to make up for those horrible crossover pairings I posted.

Aw, who would say Derpy is ugly? She is adorable!

I really hate seeing beautiful girls say "I'm Not Pretty." There are actually girls in the world who actually aren't pretty, you know.

Urg... Hollywood Homely is just one of those things that gets on my nerves.

Except now that I think about it, the page quote for that trope is kinda patronizing. I don't like that, either.

Worst trope: The Glasses Gotta Go.

Second worst trope: Reptiles Are Abhorrent.

Third Worst Trope: Disabled Means Helpless.

#277657 condottiera Sat, 1st Sep '12 1:31:13 PM from Chicago

I don't know about that. Everybody tells me I look better without my glasses.

I dunno, I guess I never met anybody who likes them.

But I love reptiles, too. Besides always wanting a pet dog, I always wanted a corn snake, but my mom sucks like that.

Sorry, I have no ideal what your talking about.

Idiot Hero should be worst trope.

@ATC: Those are all pretty bad tropes. But I especially hate one particular trope: Karma houdini. Seriously, whenever it's used for an antagonist in something that's not based on a true story, I keep getting Villain sue vibes from it.

Here's an old but neat pic.

Mars just posted some weird shipping pics to share some horribleness with us.

I could not repress the urge to see how truly horrible they were. I regret it.

World of Snark is worst trope.

I don't see what's so bad about Reptiles Are Abhorrent.

Idiot Hero

World of Snark

Villain Sue

Karma Houdini

Fourth through seventh worst tropes.

@Pink Dalek: What's wrong with you? You don't see how it's wrong.

#277663 Purple Dalek Sat, 1st Sep '12 1:39:37 PM from the Moon

Oh, yeah and add Hollywood Homely to my list too.

@ATC I doubt reptiles care about how they are portrayed in the media.

Hey, Purps. Did you catch that Mount Splashmore Rarity pic? Thought you'd like that.

Also, I like how Rarity is characterized as the most glamorous and beautiful and is not embarrassed to wear glasses.

@Purps: Here ya go.

I don't mind The Glasses Gotta Go, personally, because I think it's kinda true in my case. I wish I could use contacts, but they just hurt so much.

Probably-upcoming Fluttershy toy

with potential Season 3 info

FLUTTERSHY® has a tea party to make friends with the CRYSTAL EMPIRE ponies—they seem just as shy as her!

#277669 storyyeller Sat, 1st Sep '12 1:52:06 PM from Appleloosa

But I wouldn't want a permanent change of setting. I gotta admit, that sort of thing often leads to a Shark Jump.

Fortunately, that's unlikely to happen. Assuming the images correspond to real events, it will almost certain be confined to the season finale.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

#277670 condottiera Sat, 1st Sep '12 1:54:44 PM from Chicago

I do like them visiting other places, though.

Going back to Appaloosa would be awesome. They could have a kind of Wild West sort of adventure. I like Braeburn, too, there should be more of him.

I'm disapointed there's no The Pun Has Been Doubled reaction image yet.

As for worst tropes, why did noone mention Rape Is OK When It's Female on Male?

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

#277672 condottiera Sat, 1st Sep '12 1:57:27 PM from Chicago

That's cause it is now Double Standard Rape: Female on Male. It points out that it is not a good thing.

Plus, it is subverted sometimes.

In fact, one of The Punisher 's bad guys once had it as his Freudian Excuse played completely straight by Garth Ennis of all people.

Idiot Hero is alright as long as they're likable enough. Fry is a good example of this.

"You mean, you detect the dreaded hand of my nemesis' henchman, Viscount von Sausageroll?"

#277674 condottiera Sat, 1st Sep '12 2:00:59 PM from Chicago

Fry is funny enough. I kinda get annoyed when he still gets what he wants, though. If I was Leela, I would have no romantic interest in him.
