TV Tropes is allegedly a site where people look at the common tropes found in the media. What TV Tropes does not do is actually analyze anything and it has mostly become a toxic community of constant fanboy wanking.

Fuck No TVTropes is a Tumblr blog that, as the name explained, is opposed to TV Tropes, mainly all the horrible that has been spawned from it. While the blog author, Bogleech, and Mark (who was the blog's moderator), does make some submissions of their own, it was mostly 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.

As of 2019, though, Fuck No TVTropes is long-abandoned; the most recent post is from March 2016. Surprisingly, it survived the kindergartenization of Tumblr in December 2018.

Fuck No TVTropes provides examples of the following tropes:

• Abusive Parents: What people thought of his/her parents whenever FNTVT jokingly answers them of how he became a casual anime watcher.

"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."

• Accentuate the Negative: There are a few more good qualities to TV Tropes than the blog author lets on, but as the blog is not about the things the site does right, those rare gems of good are nearly always ignored.
• 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:

"Congrats, new mods. You're much more competent at website layout than the old mods."

• Brain Bleach: ventingmyrage gone to fetish fuel wiki side of TV Tropes, he plead for death.

RIP.

• • The Rugrats page of TV Tropes has a ridiculous yet detailed entry about Phil and Lil's "Incest Subtext."

"I am...disgusted."

• • Bogleech also ventured to TV Tropes's My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Fetish Fuel pages.

"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."

• • TV Tropes' Incest Subtext and Incest Yay Shipping pages have Real Life sections.
    • According to TV Tropes, "Obviously" Violet and Klaus working together to survive their evil uncle's traps counts as "incest subtext".
    • An actual TV Tropes pedo telling another younger Troper, that its "perfectly valid reason to be upset about (Being groped by some stranger)."
• 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.

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.

• Deadpan Snarker: Many of the conversations and responses that were made by the author (bogleech), Mark, and the submitters are very deadpan snarky, as evidence by these links here.
  • The most prime example in the blog was his answer of how he became a "casual anime fan."
• Deviantart Gazes Back: Clusterkind kindly asked bogleech to make a cousin to "Fuck No TV Tropes" about DeviantArt's darkness. Bogleech, the author, refused, even stating that he'll die after three posts and that many have tried.

"...If you stare into the abyss of DeviantART, it stares back."

• Did Not Do the Research: Concerning Hyperdimension Neptunia, when the author found out that the game series was just a moe anthropomorphism of game consoles having adventures. Also, due to him never trusting any game with that art style and plus, the need to look things up before replying.
• Everything's Better with Dinosaurs: An anonymous submitter asked "what does 'pro-dinosaur' mean?"

"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."

• 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.
  • When asked if he were in charge would he, Bogleech, fire Fighteer, he'd answered

"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."

• 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.

"Viva la revolución."

• 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.

MOD Note: Shimaspawn's doing God's work right now.

• • 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.

"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.

• Unperson: Very much so. TV Tropes has permanently banned all mention of the "Fuck No TvTropes" blog after it was determined that they were being mean nasty doodoo heads and "we can't take the slightest little negativity and FAST EDDIE IS GOD", etc. Smfh.
  • And simply mentioning it is grounds for a ban.
