{{quote|''"TVTropes is allegedly a site where people look at the common tropes found in the media. What TVTropes does not do is actually analyze anything and it has mostly become a toxic community of constant fanboy wanking. Come, tell your horror stories."''|Fuck No TVTropes's description}}
Line 32 ⟶ 31:
* [[Future Imperfect]]: Bogleech jokingly hopes that a thousand years into the future, [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/122960771786/there-are-more-pages-on-tvtropes-about-different archaeologists won't view Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash] as some sort of Ancient [[Mesopotamian Mythology|Mesopotamian Gods]] because of the abundance of TV Tropes' articles on MLP's different fanfiction genres.
* [[Insane Troll Logic]]: The blog frequently lampoons the lengths some users go to in order to justify adding certain examples, as well as other examples of tropes being seriously out of touch with reality. Highlights include [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/128415692786/just-when-i-think-ive-found-the-last-of-tv-tropes a theory that claimed] the "obvious" existence of [[Twincest]] [[Incest Subtext|Subtext]] between Violet and Klaus from ''[[A Series of Unfortunate Events]]''.
** [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/98327113931/per-your-request-mod-note-i-dont-even-know "Actually, being groped is good because you were attractive enough to warrant being molested!"] And this was supposed to get them to ''open up''. Dear God, where to begin.''
* [[Kill It with Fire]]: [http://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/138352497236/so-apparently-edwin-epps-raping-his-slave-patsey 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 [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/73325934622/ asked if he'd fire a paticular mod]:
Line 38 ⟶ 37:
* [[La Résistance]]: The author's reaction when [http://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/93344308716/a-few-weeks-months-back-after-somebody-asked the blog got its own TV Tropes page, surviving more than some months] and [http://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/93372064151/holy-crap-go-to-the-history-tab-for-you-blogs Fast Eddie cleaned post up a bit, leaving the blog's criticism intact].
{{quote|''"Viva la revolución."''}}
* [[Nostalgia Filter]]: WhenAnother askedcommon criticism of example placement, and cited in particular in response to someone asking who would be insane enough to putplace ''[[Duke Nukem]]'' inon the [[Fair for Its Day]] examples,page.<!--Should Bogleechgrab answereda itslink tropers whofor arethis blinded by the nostalgia filter.too-->
* [[Orphaned Series]]: The blog washas been inactive since the last ask answered in March 2016. In March of 2019, [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/183144173441/update Mark posted a final update] that clarified why he'd abandoned the blog: as much fun as he'd had taking the site down a peg, he eventually realized that, in his opinion, he was holding the site up to a standard it could never truly meet, and had more productive things to invest his time in.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: In spite of criticizing it as well, the blog has recommended All The Tropes as an alternative to the site multiple times. The FAQ also states not to vandalize TVTropes pages, instead giving tips on how to actually improve the site and provide actual analysis.
** The author acknowledges when TVT realizes that [http://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/126764370923/ill-be-fair-at-least-tv-tropes-realizes-they underage characters were ending up in the "Memetic Sex God" and that they have to do huge cleanups].
{{quote|MOD Note: Shimaspawn's doing God's work right now.}}
** Bogleech reminds those that have issues with TV Tropes to just leave criticism at Fighteer's [[YouTube]] videos, not '''death threats'''. [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/76300982742/fighteer Also, '''Staystay away from his son'''].
* [[Self-Insert Fic]]: Mentioned in response to anAn anonymous askasker [https://fucknotvtropes.tumblr.com/post/133416731577/the-fact-that-people-like-this-actually-exist-kind stating that "the misanthropic and moronic power fantasies of teenagers will always be with us"] gets a reply joking about the Library of Alexandria's destruction in this manner, likely also as a joke basedplay on the misconception that such "cringy" writing didcould notonly exist in thosemodern times.
{{quote|"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]]: TVTropes has banned any and all mentions of the blog.
