Well, in troper speak, the entirety of Sonichu is a nightmare fuel.

Well, in that case, it's kinda hard to tell. As Sonichu is technically a nightmare in more ways than one. And it can (and will) get creepy if you know what mind made it.

Speaking of which, the Sonichu Tvtropes page is a nightmare for the editors to the point of that it has to be locked down due to all the weenery.
 
Just from that one I already know he merits a fatgot title.
 
Also, despite all their surface level SJW-ing a lot of tropers are fucking TERRIFIED of immigration into their white, liberal utopia.

Nightmare Fuel is pretty much spergs going "hey this seems like something that could be somewhat scary even if you have to squint real hard and tilt your head to see it, I'd better list it"

There used to be two different tropes for this; Nightmare Fuel, which was for stuff that could unintentionally creep people out, and High Octane Nightmare Fuel, for moments that were actually intended to be crap-your-pants scary. However, everyone kept using the two interchangeably, either through not understanding the difference between the two tropes or just being such pussies that they couldn't tell what is or isn't meant to be scary, eventually resulting in the mods just throwing their hands up and combining them both into just Nightmare Fuel.
 
Let's take a look at another type of "fuel" tropers run on: Nausea Fuel.

Of course, when you think of shows that make people sick, the first that comes to mind would be...

This even turns up in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic of all places.
  • "Applebuck Season" has an In-Universe example when Applejack helps Pinkie Pie cook muffins at Sugarcube Corner. Pinkie mishears Applejack's ingredients and mixes potato chips, soda pop, lemon juice, and earthworms into the batter. She winds up making a lot of ponies, including Pinkie herself, to get sick eating them.
  • "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000": Desperate to catch up with the Apples in the cider-making contest the Flim-Flam brothers switch off the quality control on their machine which accepts bad apples, twigs and rocks. To make matters even worse, they serve it to the Ponyville crowd!
  • "Apple Family Reunion": Granny Smith's aunt makes apple jam but her teeth fall into the cauldron. She then says they never found her aunt's teeth in any of the jars they checked.
  • "Make New Friends But Keep Discord": The Smooze, who is basically a giant blob of green slime.

And also:

Shrek thrives on this (both the character and the movies).

I don't recall getting nauseous watching the first two Shrek movies (didn't watch the third). Do you?

If you get disgusted by watching MLP you are incredibly sensitive. That's not good. I could see this for Ren and Stimpy or the like, but MLP?

I was never disgusted by Shrek, but then again, back then I was a kid who adored gross and dark humor...
 
TvTropes is basically tumblr lite. They really crave being special and unique, dispite having no personality outside of the media they consume, so they resort to pretending to be deeply affected by banal things.

At least TV Tropes is actually overtly for sperging about media, though.
 
Out of all the fuel tropes, Fetish Fuel is the best. Considering they don't accept examples anymore since it was one of the things that got them in hot water.
 
Number your Troper Crushes is a fun thread. Tropers basically jerking each other off while trying to maintain their veneer of "Super-Quirky demisexual demiromantic Genius". You can just picture the shipping fanfics they probably write of themselves.

We Have All Been Gender Flipped

Starts out innocently enough, if a bit creepy, as a goofy forum game.

A few pages in it's devolved to really bad understandings of how periods work.

A few more and tropers are making out with newly feminized tropers in their own, now sextastic bodies.

By now it's turned fully into some bizarre lesbian (male) fantasy, where everyone has tragic backgrounds (mostly molestation and rape) and they are constantly cuddling and feeling eachother up and piloting steampunk gundams with hetalia or some shit. It's awful.

edit: Just as a caveat, I have so far not seen a single troper's alter-ego in that thread that was male. That should tell you some things.

Threads like this never go over well. I should know, I actually suffered though one earlier today (though thankfully it was deleted before it got anywhere). it makes you think why people want to share such things over the internet, and then get mocked about it. Like say, the Bronies. Ignoring the obvious here, the fact that they're crushing over characters from a children's show is... well it's odd, to say the least.
 
It's pretty hilarious reading all the Teen Titans Go pages and seeing all the spergs whine and cry about how it's a bad and unhealthy show for young children's minds

Since when did these people decide to become Action for Children's Television? Thankfully, they're not parents - and never will be, Lord hoping - so the networks won't listen to them.

They've gone the Mr. Enter route and think they're "saviors of children's entertainment" or some bullshit like that
