I hate that one trope where there’s an alien or a guy from an isolated tribe that’s never been to America, and they come to America and their new American friends show them shopping malls and fast food and the outsider is all “This is amazing! I love America!”
Just once I’d like this trope to be subverted with the alien or whatever spitting out the fast food and saying something like, “Oh god, what is this shit? It’s giving me a heart attack!” or they go to a mall and are mortified by the advertising and that they have to slave away to afford any of it.
Are there any tropes you’re tired of? They can be as dumb and petty as you want. It’s fun to rip on pointless things sometimes.
when the man “gets the girl” just by simping and being pathetic and wearing the woman down. boils my blood, If Pride and Prejudiced can force the man to change and apologize than so can you. that book was written in 1813 and its more progressive and better than most modern love stories because the man gets better and works on himself and respects the main characters boundaries. the amount of books and movies where the man STALKS the woman is stomach churning. i honestly hate most romance books and movies for similar reasons.
