Why the fuck do they have beef with him? He's entirely irrelevant in the quality of spongebob episodes that most people hate.

Because they need someone to blame who was involved with the show in some capacity.

So entards consider it mean spirited when fictional characters like Fluttershy are mean to their friends, but it's totally fine to gloat ghoulishly about a real person's cancer?

To them, yes. There might be some that realize how awful it is to do that, but they either get exiled from the circle or just shut up and go with the crowd.

Are there any other examples or Troper lack of empathy and real human emotions?
 
* The single thing to be talked about ''Series/{{Heathers}}'' is the offensive undertones of the Heathers' casting, which gave the series the appearance of being a paranoid right-wing fantasy in the eyes of many viewers and which many saw as missing the point of [[Film/{{Heathers}} the original film]]. In fact, no online review of the show goes by without mentioning it and no site featuring it is without this debate.

Curious about what "atrocity" that troper was talking about I google the shows' names:

Yup. Having to read subtitles on these is "atrocity" indeed.

You know what we need? A whole thread on people who are "too old" for these sorts of shows. There's people like this who not only still watch Disney Junior shows like this, but there are people who still like PBS Kids and Nick Jr. stuff.

The whole page is further proof that tropers are a bunch of spineless pussies, but for this one in particular

For those that never played these games, he's talking about this...

You're right! That isn't even scary! It's just colored mannequins!

There is a significant portion of the fandom that is obsessed with pairing Luanne up with a background character that, according to the wiki, only showed up in one episode:

(At least it's not more pedo incest, though.)

This reminds me of the MLP community taking background characters seriously...

So, they're scared of colored mannequins, but think blowing them up is sexist? Are they just mad because a mannequin is the only willing sex partner who will have them and they hate to see them abused and exploited in the media they consume?

The "Living Prop" trope is nothing but that. Check it out: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LivingProp

This thread would pretty much write itself. We seen more than our fair share of exceptional audience members digging shows with intended demographics half their age (if not younger). It is especially delightful when they complain about the show 'not being what it used to be.' Well, yeah. If you're 35 and watching Caillou, what are you thinking it's up to?

I'd like a thread on adults who watch preschools shows. Shows aimed at preschool rarely adult fanbases the way shows aimed at older kids (like Gravity Falls) do. For every Lazy Town, there are ten Barneys.

Some mannequins fall into the uncanny valley, but these just look like Green Man.

A childless adult watching Caillou is concerning and somewhat creepy. As a side note, many parents hate Caillou because the title character is whiny.

I could use more weirdos to poke fun at in my downtime - let's make this a reality. It needs to be badly, as it stands.

I have several questions.
 
Methinks some tropers don't understand the difference between the original text and whatever 'artsy' cough dumb cough adaptations some hack producers made onetime.
 
They still haven't hired anyone to fix their frankenwiki's code. Even I wouldn't touch that shit.
