* {{Moral Myopia}}: I hate this trope unless you're actively using it to establish a character as a villain or otherwise dislikable.

* {{Moral Myopia}}: I hate {{Kafka Comedy}}: This typically doesn't make me laugh. All it does is make me view the victim of this trope unless you're actively using it to establish a character as a villain TheWoobie and make me hate the characters who hate the victim through no fault of his or otherwise dislikable.her own.



* {{Overprotective Dad}}: I don't hate this one in principle so much as I hate the {{Double Standard}}. When was the last time the woman in the relationship had to contend with the loathing of the in-laws? Why is it always [[{{Bewitched}} Darrin]] or [[TheFlintstones Fred Flintstone]] that has to put up with the hatred of the mother-in-law?

When was only ones to actually get hit in a fight or be the last time the victims of physical comedy pisses me off. Not to mention that if I were a woman in I'd probably be insulted at the relationship had to contend with the loathing of the in-laws?

* {{Butt Monkey}}: Specifically related to ''{{Family Guy}}''. By serving as the Butt Monkey, Meg Griffin not only gets what she deserves, but it goes a long way towards rectifying the {{Double Standard}} that makes 90% of all Butt Monkeys male.



* {{Sadist Show}}: What can I say? I love seeing [[FamilyGuy Meg Griffin]] suffer.

* {{Small Name Big Ego}}: John Kricfalusi is an overrated hack. There, I said it. Granted, what really pisses me off about him is his snooty elitist view on what animation "should" be, and his tendency to look down his nose at anyone who doesn't agree with him. Okay, I'm not a cartoonist and I'll never know as much about the medium as Kricfalusi does, but I always thought that the main intent of cartoons was to entertain the audience. I get more entertainment of a single episode of {{He-Man And the Masters of the Universe}} than I will out of an entire season of {{Ren And Stimpy}}. Your cartoons don't entertain me, John. I don't care if they're "fun to watch", I'm entertained by the writing, not the cartooning.
