Fuck No TVTropes



Fuck No TVTropes is a Tumblr blog that mostly serves as a community submission blog of things others find horrible about TV Tropes. All The Tropes had also caught their attention and has been criticized whenever applicable as well. The blog author, Bogleech, and Mark (who was the blog's moderator), did occasionally make posts of their own.

The blog is now long-abandoned, with the most recent post being from March 2016, though most if not all of the posts have survived the great "cleanup" of Tumblr in December 2018.

""I was so much of a weeaboo back in high school that my parents sent me to a camp run by Marcus Bachmann to make me normal. Now I'm more casual.""
 * Abusive Parents: Joked about when the author answers a question about how he became a casual anime watcher.

""Congrats, new mods. You're much more competent at website layout than the old mods.""
 * Accentuate the Negative: Per the blog's title, though it's far from exclusively negative. See Pet the Dog below in particular.
 * Aesop Amnesia: In TV Tropes, Inspector Spacetime made it to their High Octane Nightmare Fuel page. FNTVT noted that the tropers didn't learn their lesson from the Ugly Barnacle incident.
 * Better Than New: When TV Tropes came under new ownership, they made some tweaks and design changes to improve the layout of the site. This resulted in Bogleech giving them some rare praise:

""Five seconds, I've been on the page for five seconds. And do you know what I see? Without even having to scroll down?THE ABYSS. THE ABYSS IS STARING AT ME.""
 * Brain Bleach: Numerous examples:
 * One unfortunate sod dove too deep into the Fetish Fuel side of TV Tropes, and begged for death. Bogleech also ventured to TV Tropes's My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Fetish Fuel pages, and, well:

''"I suppose a good aspect would be how they kept all the subpages on the top of the pages. That way you won’t have to go through the entire article looking for a link to their character page." '' ""...If you stare into the abyss of DeviantART, it stares back."" ""It means that my list of priorities goes like this: 1. Dinosaurs 2. Pokémon 3. RuPaul's Drag Race 4. Shitty Fan Fiction 5. My personal appearance 6. Everything else.""
 * TV Tropes' Incest Subtext and Incest Yay Shipping pages had Real Life sections.
 * Another example insisted that Violet and Klaus working together to survive their evil uncle's traps counts as "incest subtext".
 * The Rugrats page of TV Tropes had a ridiculous yet detailed entry about Phil and Lil's "Incest Subtext." Starting to notice a pattern?
 * "Actually, being groped is good because you were attractive enough to warrant being molested!" Dear God.
 * Brutal Honesty: The blog author does not sugarcoat anything. If the troping world does something wrong/horrible, it will be called on it in no uncertain terms.
 * Criticizes Everyone Equally: They do not play favorites. Whenever a troping website does something horrible, it will be called out. This one included.
 * Damned By Faint Praise: The blog author, after being asked if there's anything he likes about TV Tropes, has this to say.
 * Deadpan Snarker: Many of the conversations and responses by the author (bogleech) and the moderator, as well as several of the submissions.
 * Everyone Has Standards: When asked to make a cousin to "Fuck No TV Tropes" about DeviantArt's darkness, Bogleech refused, even stating that he'll die after three posts and that many have tried.
 * Did Not Do the Research: Bogleech notes that he should look up things more often before replying to asks after a series of posts concerning Hyperdimension Neptunia. He didn't trust the art style, and the series had been inaccurately characterized as porn, prompting him to look into it and learn that it was just a moe anthropomorphism of game consoles having adventures that was incredibly fanservicey at worst.
 * Everything's Better with Dinosaurs: An anonymous submitter asked "what does 'pro-dinosaur' mean?"

""I'd probably go all Tabula Rasa on it and fire everyone. I have never heard one good story about any mod on TV Tropes, period.""
 * Feminists: Both Bogleech, the creator/author, and the blog's only mod, Mark, stated that they consider themselves as such.
 * Future Imperfect: Bogleech hopes that a thousand years into the future, archaeologists won't view Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash as some sort of Ancient Mesopotamian Gods, because of the abundance of TV Tropes' articles on MLP's different fanfiction genres.
 * Kill It with Fire: The author's reaction to TV Tropes categorizing Edwin Epps raping his slave Patsey in Twelve Years a Slave as "Villainous Crush", instead of Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil.
 * Bogleech's answer when asked if he'd fire a paticular mod:

""Viva la revolución.""
 * La Résistance: The author's reaction when the blog got its own TV Tropes page, surviving more than some months and Fast Eddie cleaned post up a bit, leaving the blog's criticism intact.

"MOD Note: Shimaspawn's doing God's work right now."
 * Nostalgia Filter: When asked who would be insane to put Duke Nukem in the Fair for Its Day examples, Bogleech answered its tropers who are blinded by the nostalgia filter.
 * Orphaned Series: The blog hasn't updated since 2015 or 2016.
 * Pet the Dog: Whenever "Fuck No TvTropes" finds something positive about the troping sites and some non-troping related examples.
 * An Anonymous submitter asked, if there's any alternatives to TV Tropes, The author of the FNTVT blog recommended All The Tropes.
 * The author acknowledges when TVT realizes that underage characters ending up in the "Memetic Sex God" and that they have to do huge cleanups.

""Think of it this way: Now that the Library of Alexandria is gone, we don't have to read Sappho's self-insert Greek Mythology shipping fan fics."
 * The "Damned By Faint Praise" examples.
 * The real reason why "Fuck No TV Tropes" blog exists, it's for "People who do like TV Tropes and feel like there's something that needs to be fixed or for people who have been hurt by the community..."
 * Bogleech reminds those that have issues with TV Tropes to just leave criticism at Fighteer's YouTube videos, not Death threats. Also, Stay away from his son.
 * Self-Insert Fic: Bogleech's answer when an Anonymous stated that the misanthropic and moronic power fantasies of teenagers will always be with us, with the added fact that the Library of Alexandria is gone and the Canterbury Tales won't be completed.


 * Unperson: TVTropes has banned any and all mentions of the blog.
