Creepypasta was honestly so goated until fanboys and fangirls started to simp over the characters, now I do know that every character gets simped for but the way you guys treat Jeff the killer likes hes some misunderstood "I can fix him" guy is insane.

Like no hes not misunderstood hes a serial killer who kills because hes mental, same guys for ticci toby or eyeless jack

CP was such a good concept with the slendermansion being a crossover and stuff but now it feels like CP is just for teenagers to write "Y/N and Slenderman having a baby"

His avatar is literally stolen from other things because he can’t make anything original himself, he’s a gargantuan prick irl, his entire personality is being an annoying show-off gooner, and (most damning of all), he harassed JaidenAnimations. God, I hate this asshole. He literally stole someone’s art without crediting them! The amount of second-hand cringe I have when seeing this mf is palpable, I feel SO bad for whatever fandoms he’s in. I hate his fucking smarmy face in the first image, I wanna shove his head into a waffle iron. I am irrationally pissed off whenever I see this smarmy bastard. The fact that he’s even successful at ALL makes me want to lobotomize myself with an ice pick and forsake the entire human race. His entire existence proves that humans are naturally born with sin.

Look at this shit & tell me it's scary. It's not. It's just the typical guy with big eyes & smile who's gonna get you. It's really obvious that it's made for kids too, what with the bright colors & wacky flailing arms. The only scary on-model art of him is the last image, & it's not even really that bad, just uncomfortable. He falls into ALL the analog "horror" tropes I thought we were done with by now & I honestly just don't have anything to say. Horror in general nowadays, at least from my experience, just feels watered-down with cheap jumpscares as the scariest moments, & nothing that actually puts you on edge or sticks with you afterwards, with the only exception I've seen recently being that new Local58 video. Watch it if you haven't because it's actually really good. [As is all of Local58 but never mind that.]

No hate to the real people behind the models, I (mostly) respect them for taking such a long time out of their days and lives as a whole to play the role of the character they are.

idk if I can say “I hate vtubers” because they’re still real people, just playing a character so thats why I chose the title.

Tbh I really hate most vtubers and the culture that surrounds it except for like, Giwi, Rubberross (if you can consider him a vtuber) and buffpup mostly cause she’s hot

ANYWAYS

You’re telling me that in the infinite expanse of vtubing, where you can literally be ANYONE and play ANY kind of character, all of the popular ones are just hot anime women? Why? Like trying to sit through most vtuber‘s streams are fucking insufferable because of how steeped in the stank of weeb culture it is, unfunny sex jokes, constant remarks about how hot they are, and the weird parasocial relationships that people make with them is really, really weird.

I ESPECIALLY HATE the fucking LOLI VTUBERS.

Who in their right mind would pretend to be a little loli girl and pander to such a gross fucking audience? ESPECIALLY Sameko Saiba, like who the fuck plays the character of a little girl and then starts sexualizing it like that cum jar joke, or the one where she opens up her shirt to show he belly and chest? WHAT THE FUCK.

and because a lot of vtuber fans are fucking CHUDS they’ll defend this shit with the “ohh it’s not real it’s just a vtuber” “ohh just admit you hate women with different body types” “oh you dont understand it”

SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Just try looking up a vtuber on twitter, because all you’ll get is a shit ton of porn.

It’s just sad man, like why cant there be a popular vtuber that’s a cool ass dinosaur or something? Or like a cute alien or something? Why do all of them have to be the same copy pasted anime girl with the overdesigning of a genshin impact character, and all their humor comes from how hot and fuckable they are like oohhhh mmmmyyyy goooodddd

vtuber humor is the worst shit ever, it’s so fucking degenerate and I HATE IT.

I HATE IT BECAUSE I THINK VTUBING IS A COOL CONCEPT, BUT MOST OF IT IS SQUANDERED ON HENTAI ADDICT SLOP.

like there is so much potential that’s just fucking wasted bro.

Even more niche vtubers follow that sort of style, I like Giwi because she‘s funny and does fun drawings, I like robberross because his avatar is cute and I just like rubber Ross. I understand the appeal, yeah buffpup is hot but once again, IT’S ALL SEXY ANIME CHARACTERS

and if it’s not hot anime woman that does the “mommy voice” for her chat and has tits with the mass of meteorites, it’s weird jackasses like the faithful sheriff peanut guy or whatever

if joe Bart became a vtuber I’d lowkey watch it ngl

I wasn’t sure if I should censor the users so I did. I hate how people just throw around autism as if it’s some silly thing that doesn’t affect people’s day to lives. No, autism is not silly and none of these characters are autistic just because they act differently than the average guy. Is it weird that I think this, please tell me if it is. Also if this is the general opinion I can take this down, I don’t wanna karma farm.

EDIT: I’m not saying you can’t see yourself in certain characters, I’m saying I don’t like it how the term gets simplified and watered down.

Web Fiction All the "I love tummy" stuff on the internet makes me deeply uncomfortable

2.7k Upvotes

(Sorry if this breaks the explicit content rule in any way as that's not my intention)

Firstly, I mainly want to say that if you're a person who likes chubby tummies, I don't mind that too much? People are allowed to like whatever they like and I'll have virtually no issues unless it's taboo. I don't know if this post is shaming or not, but if it is I deeply apologize, I just want to get something off of my chest.

My BMI is just on the cusp of being unhealthy (5'11 AMAB, ranging around 185-190 pounds for those interested) and I have a stomach that hangs out about an inch or two from my pelvis and this part of my body is genuinely the bane of my fucking existence on this earth. I absolutely despise it. It's a near constant reminder in my everyday life. Laying down? Stomach. Relaxing? Hangs out. Undressing for a shower? Bright as the fucking sun. It's a disgusting slab of flesh that constantly weighs me down and makes every time I feel cute an impossibility. The only ways I can wear an outfit is if I have a top that's baggy enough to hide it or I pull up my pants to hide it so it's not as obvious. It restricts me so much from wearing feminine clothing that I constantly have to wear men's clothes and it's debilitating.

What doesn't help me with my problems is the amount of people I see that praise tummy as this sex symbol are astronomically high. It sounds weird but every time I see someone go "uwahh tummy~~" I feel like I'm being fetishised because I just so happen to have similar features to whatever drawing they're drooling after. It wouldn't be so much of a problem if I had a different type of body or if they drew attention to another part of the body like the thighs, because that'd make me more comfortable. But no, 9 times out of 10 when people thirst over a chubby character the attention is drawn to the stomach. It's always the fucking stomach, the part of my body I HATE THE MOST.

There was a friend of mine that would say some stuff about my body that would make me deeply upset. When I'd talk to them about body issues and not liking my tummy she'd go on to say things like "but your tummy's cute", "you're so pretty" and worst of all calling me "scrumptious". It just feels like they're bringing attention to a body part that disgusts me down to my core, and in general that's what it feels like to see these kinda of posts as someone who has this kind of body. I did see later that they posted a video of a guy getting dressed with the caption "These are the type of men I'd go FERAL over" and they had the same sort of stomach shape as I do... yay.... at least I'm not a dude. This is the one time it felt directed towards me and in some cases more than others, but the amount of people that like it make me feel awful. It feels like I'm an outlier for not liking this one part of the body and it feels even more terrible when people bring attention to it in a positive light.

My weight is a pretty sore spot for me if you couldn't already tell, and people have poked fun at me for my weight, with those people both being strangers and my own family members. If people just went all Wheatley from Portal 2 and called me a fatty fat fat, yeah it would hurt but it's not the worst. But if someone walked past me and started to talk about my stomach that would ruin my entire week. I'm more than glad that it seems like this is only an online person thing that I haven't encountered in my very limited social outings.

As an aside, I don't condone body shaming nor do I hate chubby people, I'm just a person with body issues that hates it when my worst flaws (in my eyes) are the center of attention. Simple as. Also please tell me I'm not the only one like this...

i get that these are indie creators funding their own show, and im glad that we're in a era where they can have their vision seen by thousands of people and their stories can be enjoyed by many, but sometimes its just so fucking hard to criticize anything about them without you being called a hater or being told that you complain too much

they are not perfect shows, and constructive criticism is important so creators improve their skills, and the fact that they're independent shouldn't be used as a shield whenever the shortcomings of their art are pointed out, wether it be pacing, dialogue, animation, character designs or anything at all, these shows should be enjoyed and discussed without any bias, just like how people do with shows made by big companies

at the end of the day, even if they are made by passionate creators, they're still funded by the people watching them, and its fair for the audience to be able to help them get better each day since they are having a part in making the show happen

You can enjoy media without being in the fandom, stop getting into spaces for more nerdy people and say they should change it just because u don't like it or don't feel identified with that. That kind of thing was created by queer people.

Yes, it can be toxic and you are allowed to disagree with the fandom in some things, but stop saying it should dissapear just because it's something u don't like.

I keep seeing people saying they are tired of most all ships being gay, then don't interact with the fandom, queer people we're and still are tired of getting straight representation everywhere, but when it comes to us, suddenly something niche that it's not even a problem/canon, starts being "annoying , forced and toxic".

They're so frustrating. Whether it's in a show or in a game, they just make it feel like whatever the protagonist does is useless, and it usually lasts until the final showoff against them.

Like, why bother doing anything if the opposing mastermind has already predicted a billion possibilities and has a plan for every single fucking situation? The protagonist can take out a huge asset of theirs, and they're gonna be like "hm, this was a necessary loss, everything is going according to plan".

It just gives a "nothing ever happens" vibe. Isn't it just overall better when the enemy is affected by the protag's actions? Like, even if it leads to the same outcome as having predicted everything, isn't it just a lot more interesting to see them lose their composure and ADAPT instead of following a plan that's 4 parallel universes ahead of whoever you're rooting for? This adaptation can serve as character development or comic relief too, it adds so much more.

Examples are Sarah from ZZZ and La Signora from Genshin. I'm sure I've seen a lot more but these are the only ones I can think of atm.

Web Fiction I hate how the concept of Bowsette is actually used

Post image
937 Upvotes

If you think about it, the idea of Bowsette is actually pretty cool. Imagine explaining what Bowsette is to someone who never heard of it, basically a fan made version of Bowser who wears a power up that turns him into a Peach-like princess. If you think about it, and if you know that Peach is not just a princess who stands around, then you can get creative with her and her personality. Like how does this affect the Mario universe? Her relationships with other Mario characters? What would her personality be like? And you can even come up with your own design. However my issue is how Bowsette is just used as an "uwu cute princess female Bowser", and that's it, nothing else, like she has actual potential most people don't even use, and why is almost every appearance of her just a Peach with a black dress and a few Bowser traits? Make her more koopaling-like, make her bad ass, make her an actual character, don't just use her as a goddamn fan service only character

Web Fiction God Shaggy is not, and never was, funny

Post image
528 Upvotes

It’s probably one of the unfunniest things to have come out of the internet; in fact, this lobotomized excuse for “humor” is the single most moronic, sister-kissing, unschooled joke I’ve ever had the misfortune of being exposed to. My brain cells are deteriorating at a rapid rate just by forcing myself to even temporarily tolerate this nauseating study on the death of joy and whimsy.

In a thousand years, when man unearths our primitive technology from the dust and debris, the remnants of the god shaggy trend will be displayed in a museum. Behind its glass prison, it will be displayed not as a testament to our achievements, but rather as something to recoil from. It will be placed beside medieval torture devices and accounts of the pinnacle of human cruelty, because God Shaggy has no place being regarded as something to flaunt. It is something to be ashamed of.

And when even that museum crumbles, and its spoils are unearthed yet again, hopefully the new generation will finally cauterize the wound left by this ruptured plague boil of a joke.

It is not revolutionary or even mildly humorous. There are no nostril-flaring exhales or even the quirk of lips; there is only misery and despair that follows in the wake of this fetal alcohol syndrome of a trend. It is the mold in a container of strawberries, slowly eating away at everything around it until all that is left is the festering sludge of fur and the rank stench of decay.

God Shaggy is the epitome of the dead internet. It is a blight, festering in the recesses of internet archives and occasionally spawning equally unfunny creations. It spews rot in the infected gash left by its birth, unrelenting as it elevates another weak creature to godhood; yet this godhood is false, built on a throne of lies and soldered by the short-lived flame of irony.

Genuinely, the fact that this stupid fucking joke got so popular will never not baffle me, because it makes slop that is unanimously regarded as dogshit look like it was the utter pinnacle of human creation; because God Shaggy is the utter pinnacle of anti intellectualism. It makes annoying orange look like a deeply philosophical staple of high culture, that is how comparatively dogshit it is. You will find more cultural impact from a bad wattpad fanfic than you will from the God Shaggy trend, because at least the wattpad fanfic—as poorly as it may be written—has some effort put into it; God Shaggy is just completely and utterly braindead. There isn’t a single redeeming quality that this shit has, and the mere suggestion that it does is an insult to all sensibility.

I have seen the aftermath of a toddler spaghetti-o tantrum with more originality and merit than this mistake of a joke. Oh, Shaggy but he’s secretly godlike and blah blah blah? Wow, I’ve totally never seen that before; it’s almost like it’s one of the most exhausted jokes imaginable!

I hate God Shaggy. It was never funny.

Edit: so since I can’t HATE BLINDLY, here is a copy-paste of actual reasons for why I dislike this meme

It was an overused meme, one that was already a pretty bland joke from conception. The, “weak character is actually strong,” joke is already one I dislike, just because it’s uninspired and pretty much just powerscaling fodder; something I also vehemently dislike, because it tends to just be a, “which character I like more,” jerking fest.

And for Shaggy, it wasn’t JUST, “what if weak character strong?” no, it was basically, “how overpowered can we make this dude?”

And I HATE overpowered characters. I don’t like any of them, because they end up being reduced ENTIRELY to being strong. So when you try to talk about ANYONE, someone would come in regurgitating how strong Saitama or Goku or whoever is.

It’s exhausting.

It was also because I’ve never been fond of Scooby Doo. I didn’t grow up with it being considered a staple of my childhood, and so I have no nostalgia blinding my view on it. I don’t care for Shaggy; I think he’s just your run-of-the-mill foodie stoner guy.

Combine an already boring character with an even more boring trope, especially one as excessively pushed as the Ultra Instinct thing (I also don’t like DBZ), and it ends up being a mediocre joke that overstayed its welcome by a long shot.

Is that enough reasons why?

Oh, and no, this was not written with AI. Gotten a few accusations about that.

listen, i get that its all scripted, and you have to have the MC be a little oblivious for it to work, you can't just jump into the action right away, but come on man, sometimes its just so obviously poorly thrown together that you stop feeling intrigued by the story for just how idiotic the main character acts

like, these mfs will be walking in an empty forest, and see a random pig randomly snap his head right into his direction with glowing red eyes, and will just think its a bug and keep playing, and they're also just have the survival instincts of a paralyzed hare with rabies, they'll be in an open field, see a towering creature in the distance but will keep cooking their meat in the furnace instead of putting that shit out and digging down

it literally takes a 9ft tall monster to spawn in front of them for them to finally realise "ooooh, my game IS fucked up isn't it? D:", like bro, THIS SHIT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST 10 MINUTES, NO WAY YOU DON'T REALISE THIS ISN'T VANILLA MINECTAFT

i feel like its better to write your protagonist as afraid but continuing to explore due to morbid curiosity, than just oblivious to a unrealistic extent, i feel like thats what a player in this situation would do,for an ARG to be interesting, the player has to act like, well, a player, and often it sorta feels like they're just roleplaying as a character who is actually living inside the world of minecraft instead of a person playing it, and that sucks when most of the setup for these is "i found a lost version of the game" or "i got a mysterious email with this mod attached to it"

so yeah, i still like watching these while eating lunch or whatevs, but whenever a MC acts like this for long enough i just switch to a different video

Mario has always been one of my favourite characters in all of fiction. He's just a funny little guy, but is still ultimately good and willing to help out his brother and his friends because he genuinely cares for them. Heck, he even cares about Bowser to a lesser extent, despite the bad that he does. And he does more silly things like dreaming about Italian cuisine in his sleep. I just really like Mario. Then we got these parodies, and yeah no. Mario is either a jerk who bullies Luigi and is self-centred, or a terrifying psychopath who kills pretty much anyone he likes, a mix of both, a guy who just cannot stop cussing, etc. and also those Game Theory videos, now I known that they were meant to be satire, but they absolutely tarnished my man's reputation. And then there were the videos about Bowser being a good guy, and Mario being bad, and everything just went downhill. I'm glad that nowadays, people are recognising the real Mario, and parodies have made Mario genuinely likeable, but the 2000's and 2010's were a rough time for Mario on the internet.
