Tropes
Tropes that Apply to Me
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: I kind of have some arachnophobia. Don't pop up a picture of a wolf spider up on me without warning.
My Opinions on Tropes
Favorite Tropes
- Adaptational Karma: If a villain (especially a Complete Monster) was a Karma Houdini in the source material, then them being punished in the adaptation is a very good inducer of Catharsis Factor.
- Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Villains who are psychological egoists get proven wrong. This especially is a good trope if the villain is a Complete Monster.
- Heel–Face Turn: It's heartwarming when a villain who isn't a Complete Monster becomes a good guy.
- Karma Houdini Warranty: It's a very good inducer of Catharsis Factor when a villain who previously avoided karma finally gets punished, especially if said villain is a Complete Monster.
- Shown Their Work: It really impresses me to see fiction writers show their knowledge.
- Silly Rabbit, Cynicism Is for Losers!: Being excessively cynical (especially if it's at the very cynical end of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism) is genuinely unhealthy.
- Viewers Are Geniuses: While it may be confusing, I may still like the work for calling me smart.
Pet-Peeve Tropes
- Aesop Amnesia: If a character learns something, they better actually permanently have learned it.
- Hollywood Autism: I have autism myself. It really offends me to see it stereotyped.
- Karma Houdini: It annoys me when a villain (especially a Complete Monster) gets away scot-free.
- Viewers Are Morons: No, they're not. I feel annoyed (and a bit offended) when a work tries to overexplain or even repeat things as if it's being viewed by morons when, in actuality, it's not.
