- Another example of the Forced Meme trope was the Milhouse Meme (although this was subverted by doing a Heel Faced turn and becoming an actual meme) on Sup Forums.

If you want to be in a TV Tropes environment, why not just go to TV Tropes? At least go to Sup Forums. Why even Sup Forums?

Averted: People generally agree that the thread became better after [[[Growing The Beard]]] in post 147.

Nightmare Fuel: there was once a thread where user said some stupid shit and another user suggested he had a sexual intercourse with said user's parent (it wasn't downright said but hinted which also makes it a Fridge Horror moment) which is deeply disturbing when you think about it. Especially when you consider there are kids browsing Sup Forums and this could be highly traumatic for them, the mental image of a unknown man on the internet molesting their mother. I know because this was very traumatic for me, as once I read this post I shat a lot of bricks and cried and it was really really terrifying. It is a very very scary post. Basically the scariest thing I've ever encountered in my entire life.

Can we touch upon how autistic the Nightmare Fuel sections of the website are?

The worst Dethroning Moment of Suck in all of Sup Forums for me was when user made a dumb thread. LIKE, SERIOUSLY????? It was SO out of character for user to make a dumb thread, all for a [[DudeNotFunny]] mean-spirited joke at the expense of tropers. I made me go into a Heroic BSOD and scream and punch my pillow.

TROPER TALES!
I had a Crowning Moment of Awesome yesterday when my Badass Longcoat was yanked by my Magnificent Bastard nemesis. I pulled out my BFS and he called on his Five Band Band and I totally eviscerated them with Ludicrous Gibs. I was such a Badass that I made Chuck Norris look like a Runt At The End.
Afterwards, I went took a Shower of Angst to wash all the blood off of myself and began Drowing My Sorrows in an ocean of Frothy Mugs of Water. Then, I gave my Bratty Half-Pint brother a Reason You Suck Speech about how all Humans Are Bastards and that God Is Dead.
It was the best day of my life. I accomplished everything that I wanted to do that day.

Whenever a thread becomes considered "epic" on Sup Forums, it can be voted to go to the Archives. Almost every board has a section in said Archives. Each page has around ten threads on it, and page numbers vary from a few to the infamous Sup Forums's section, which, to say the least, is huge. Also note that Epic Fail Guy moments, memes, and various other categories get their own sections, and you've just taken out a good chunk of your free time trying to read them all. Oh, and there's always more coming in. Enjoy your lulzy prison...

There used to be a section called High Octane Nightmare Fuel that had entries about diseases and Cosmic Horror. But then a bunch made an entry about Asperger Syndrome and it all went to shit.

The very concept of being able to categorize and sort stories and interactions is something that appeals to autists innately, thus TvTropes attracts those with that disorder who commonly lack that kind of self awareness to avoid being cringe start with.
TvTropes is at its basest concept Autistic kids sorting LEGO.
Parker Perry
No, really. Why are Nightmare Fuel pages so awful? Even if you take the whole "horror is subjective" thing into account they seem like total pussies.

There is nothing even remotely scary in Fallout 4. Legend of Zelda is scarier than Fallout 4. Those floaty masks in Super Mario Bros 2 are scarier than Fallout 4.

At one point, it was full of teenagers and children. They don't always know what they're doing, so they tend to make a lot of cringe. There were also plenty of furries, otaku, a kind of proto-tumblr obsessed with Buffy and other things like it, and many more.
When it comes down to it, it's a site for fans of things. Fans are communities of people and they'll support cringy things to support each other. That's how Deviantart and Tumblr got that way. You can see it from the olden days of the internet too. Fanfiction.net and Livejournal were full of cringy little stories where stuff like Mary Sue and Shipping really hit a stride online. I'm not saying it didn't exist before, but those two sites and others like it contributed a lot to its spread due to being large communities with a lot of people in it.
tl;dr Being a part of something can make doing cringy stuff seem normal. That kind of behavior lets the cringe grow and manifest in various ways.

As an aside, I keep going back and forth as to which is the worse result of Buffy the Vampire Slayer: TVTropes or Joss Whedon's career.
John Anderson
I remember there being a mod that despised the videos, deleted the entire TV Tropes page on Troper Tales under the reasoning of 'fuck this guy and his videos, we're not giving him exposure'.
He also jumped at the chance of deleting the Troper Tales thread on the site the moment activity wasn't high enough to disguise it as a reason to delete a dead thread

Landon Sanchez
Wild Mass Guessing. It's where people throw out stupid theories about various shows/books/vidya/wahtever and collect them on a page. It's like shitposting, but with more Dr. Who references
Michael Ortiz
>They don't always know what they're doing, so they tend to make a lot of cringe
This is a thought I will never understand. Children and teenagers "Don't understand" that you find what they're doing "Second-hand embarassing" (Whatever the fuck that newspeak means) so you need to teach them this by calling them cringey and calling what they do (Caring unironically about media) cringey?
If you want to grow up and stop crying because some kid's TV club doesn't think like you do, feel free to visit TVtropes for the first time in four years. Take a look around, you'd be surprised. The SJWs took over and deleted all the rape-related tropes they find uncomfy.
Evan Reyes
Sorry my bad, it was supposed to be 'This Troper'

I'm writing a novel where the protagonist is recovering from being on the receiving end of an extremely abusive relationship with his ex-wife. Thing is, he's a loud, meddling, free-spirited, bisexual werewolf.

How is this hard for you to understand?
If someone does something in front of you and you are embarrassed to be around them, that is embarrassment.
If someone tells you about something they did and you are retroactively embarrassed to know about it, even if you weren't actually there, that is second hand embarrassment.
Thomas Miller
Is it a CYBORG werewolf?
Easton Walker
They were talking about it earlier (), they just got the name wrong.
Adam Butler
Very triumphant.
Jacob Lopez
That's a horrible idea. Make it a steampunk werewolf.
Easton Cook
UH, THIS TROPER WOULD HAVE YOU KNOW THAT EVEN IF IT IS STEAMPUNK PARTS IT STILL FALLS AS A CYBORG ENTRY!
Cameron Martin
>If someone does something in front of you and you are embarrassed to be around them
Thank you for clarifying. Now, tell me how a child talking to his friends and being uncool in his TV discussion club a thousand miles away from you makes you unhappy, and tell me why it makes you feel so embarrassed.
Christopher Jackson
Not if he's a robot eldritch abomination badass longcoat.

>a bunch of old people acting like kids
So it bothers you when mature adults don't act in a mature manner? That bothers me, too. But if I had to choose between adults acting like little kids in some child's TV discussion club and adults acting like retards on some forum I like using, I'd prefer the former.
"Cringe" is a buzzword, a lazy weasel word that detracts from any sentence it's used. If you have legitimate complaints about that shit site and how shit it's become, you can articulate them without needing to use a word so shallow and immature it basically just means "Ungood".
