Line 119:
* ''[[Cracked.com]]'s'' articles consist mainly (but, of course, not completely) of movie bashings, doomsday scenarios and explanations of "Why Good Thing X is actually a very Bad Thing". Ironically the other half is exactly the opposite of this, gushing stories about how awesome the world is.
* The operators of www.anti-shurtugal.com, an anti-fansite for ''[[Inheritance Cycle]]'', founded the site because they discovered that they couldn't say anything critical about the books on the fansites without getting flamed, banned, and/or threatened. So they founded their own site explicitly to point out every single flaw with the books. They eventually added ''[[Twilight (novel)|Twilight]]'' to the list of literature they hate. The website is now curiously defunct.
* Over the years, Scans Daily has become somewhat infamous for this kind of behavior. So much so that the guy who wrote [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20141201223829/http://funnybookbabylon.com/2008/03/31/fandom-readership-and-snark/ this] article attributes Scans Daily as a major cause of the recent spike in comics [[Hatedom]].

Amusing for both its dead-accuracy as regards some people all geeks know (That One Guy), and for its slamming of them.
