== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Love Lucky]]'' has an in-universe example with Erika, the female lead singer of the rock band "M.I.T.", who is a self-professed hater of "normal people". This apparently arose from the way she was treated by the band's fans after she replaced the previous lead.
Line 102 ⟶ 101:
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* The bug of ''[[Bug Martini
* As part of it's increasing meta-ness, Act 6 of ''[[Homestuck]]'' introduces {{spoiler|undyingUmbrage}}, who is basically a personification of the comic's fan haters. This includes the people who complain about their friends talking about ''Homestuck'' and trying to get them interested in it.
== [[Web Original]] ==
* See this article from ''[[The Onion]]'': [https://web.archive.org/web/20100314220422/http://www.theonion.com/content/news_briefs/man_who_enjoys_thing "Man Who Enjoys Thing Informed He Is Wrong"]
* [[The Spoony Experiment|The Spoony One]] made a series of videos talking about his hatred for ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'', and ''[[Final Fantasy X-2]]''. This has caused Noah Antwiler (who plays Spoony) to take some real backlash, with him having to point out that Spoony is a character and not everything "he" says is Noah's real opinion. He did have to backtrack on a few jokes, such as in the ''FFX'' review where [[Dude, Not Funny|he calls upon all sane people to murder fans of the game]].
** Then things got a little worse when Noah (not Spoony) disparaged Nintendo<ref>Saying they needs to shut the doors on all of their primary franchises, especially ''Zelda'', which he calls [[It's the Same, Now It Sucks|an unchanging series]]</ref> and ''[[Tron: Legacy]]''.<ref>Calling the movie crap and one of the worst films of 2010 and insulting anyone who liked it by saying they have low standards and are easily entertained</ref>
** He also said that if you like ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'', you are lying to yourself.
*** Same with ''[[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]''.
* [[Winger Dinger Productions|Random DCE]] was known for this, especially in his early years. While he softened up in recent years, he still thinks [liking anime is [[Even Nerds Have Standards|beneath him.]]
* [[Zero Punctuation|Yahtzee]] is prone to doing this and he doesn't just hate one kind of gamer - he's hated on people who like [[Eastern RPG]]s, Western [[RPG]]s, Silent Hill fans (even he admits to doing so himself - he said his ''[[Silent Hill Origins]]'' review was mostly him crying) people who like ''[[Halo]]'', people who played ''[[Psychonauts]]'', people who didn't play ''[[Psychonauts]]'', console gamers, PC gamers, fans of point and click adventure games, people who own a Wii, fans of [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPG]]s, Korean gamers, fans of sprite comics, fans of ''[[Control Alt Delete]]'', fans of ''[[The Sims]]'', Retro gamers, Indie gamers, people who hate retro, people who hate indies, [[Joss Whedon]], anyone who likes Joss Whedon, etc. In general, it's safe to assume that Yahtzee hates ''everyone'', and the sensitive souls who take it to heart aren't in for a good time. Unfortunately, people on [[The Escapist]] [[Misaimed Fandom|have somehow taken this mindset seriously]] and adopted it, and will sadly probably never ever enjoy a video game again.
** The biggest example is his ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' review. At least 60% of the review itself was saying "I do not like fighting games so I will [[Don't Like, Don't Read|not show any interest in it]]" or hating on fans, then the following up video was fan hatred.
* [[The Distressed Watcher]] made nine videos complaining about the ''[[Star Wars]]'' prequels; he often called the fans stupid.
Line 124 ⟶ 123:
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* In ''[[Beavis and Butthead]]'', they were watching a [[Bon Jovi]] video. Beavis didn't think it was that bad, and Butthead kept smacking him for not thinking it sucked. Finally Beavis got fed up and [[Groin Attack|kicked Butthead in the nuts]].
* In an episode of ''[[South Park]]'', the boys play ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' and stumble across another group of boys playing ''[[Harry Potter]]''. Cartman scoffs, "[[Hypocritical Humor|Fags!]]"
