So, we got a bit off topic over in the TV Tropes Meta Thread (shocker) and started imagining what a video about TV Tropes in the style of those slander videos (you know the ones) would be like. Anyways, FernandoLemon suggested we make a Yack Fest thread for it so here we are.
Keep it civil; try not to get into any Flame Bait-y territory, per the forum rules (in particular, drama importation and popcorn posting are not allowed).

Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessTropers adding works to indexes without bothering to check if the works even have pages.
Tropers adding examples without cross-wicking them
"What does freedom really mean when demanded of you by a god?"Tropers not making proper YMMV tropes about heroes (aside from Designated Hero, but that's a whole can of worms), yet making plenty of them about villains because they think Evil Is Cool and Good Is Boring.
And I find myself guilty of this mindset sometimes.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.
PhantomDusclops92 having sudden flashbacks to when the page for Ben 10: Alien Force was overflowing with gushing towards Rath as soon as he debuted.
The best character is always the one-shot disguise.pink getting ready to entry pimp now that they've finished with the media they've been meaning to edit its pages for (again)
i can't believe nor even fathom that he visited his friend! the audacity!Half of a wick check being dedicated to the same characters potholed and referenced ad nauseum
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessThis was Super OCD and Twilight Sparkle for me.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.Tropers ignoring Wiki Words when making pages in other namespaces for unrelated works with the same name and/or making Wiki Words for new pages that clash with the older work pages.
Tropes thinking that bratty kids in children cartoons are sociopaths and worse than Old Scratch himself.
"Stand proud, Sukuna, you are strong." | He/Him- Voltes V being the most recent case of one peculiar show getting Entry Pimped a lot.
J wondering whether to dump news in the Hangout Thread or Post Your Random Thoughts.

"What does freedom really mean when demanded of you by a god?"MkayRose using the term "realms" for the Tama Toons to describe other universes which makes them sound more like Mortal Kombat characters from their lines sometimes.
Meet the Tamas!◊ Can't let any of those suckers live!jlvs200s spending some time writing a decently long forum post or trope entry, only to notice a type of grammar error shortly after he's done, forcing him to go back and edit things again (and he probably creates more typos and errors in his writing).

Kinkajou having the site live rent-free in his mind for 15 years and counting.
INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.
