\n* VillainousVirtue: For some reason my favorite examples of this are when a villainous character has a strong sense of loyalty or honor. Even when it isn't used to make the character "sympathetic", even just making them more ''human'' makes them far more interesting.

* {{Series/The Flash 2014}}- But ''only'' the first three seasons. After that, the show went in a direction I couldn't stand. In fact, Season 7 of The Flash (or what I learned about it from PopculturalOsmosis) is what made me give up on Arrowverse.

And since everyone else seems to be doing this, the three characters that best describe me are: [[Series/TheFlash2014 Caitlin]] [[ComicBook/{{Firestorm}} Snow]] (intelligent, blunt, a bit ambitious, typically nice so long as you don't get on my bad side, rather pessimistic, a big nerd, ashamed of the fact that I was kind of a jerk in the past, and very unlucky in love); [[Film/FantasticBeastsAndWhereToFindThem Newt Scamander]] (eccentric, socially awkward, better with animals than with people, and not that great in terms of self-esteem); and [[Film/LittleShopOfHorrors Audrey Fulquard]] (a hopeless romantic, fairly innocent in terms of overall outlook, and addicted to sweet and cute things.) (And if I were allowed a fourth, it would be C-3PO.)

* OldShame- I sometimes find the way I used to put the Arrowverse shows on a pedestal to be very cringeworthy.




to:

* TragicIceCharacter- It just makes me want to wrap them in a warm blanket and tell them they're strong enough to weather the storm.



* EntitledToHaveYou/ VillainousCrush/ {{Yandere}}- I find villains that fall under this to be absolutely ''horrifying'' when done right. [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Judge Claude Frollo]] and [[Series/TheFlash2014 Zoom]] stand out as particularly scary ones to me, but they aren't the only ones.

* EvilIsPetty- Excellent both as a source of comedy or even when played for drama (eg. Eobard Thawne in {{Series/The Flash 2014}}. So long as it doesn't cross over into StupidEvil...

I would genuinely consider this to be a FateWorseThanDeath.



* StalkingIsFunnyIfItsFemaleAfterMale: Personally, I believe stalking ''can'' be funny in a BlackComedy context. But if the humor solely derives from the fact that the stalker is female- and if the writers wouldn't want you to laugh if the genders were reversed- that's decidedly not funny. A better way to derive humor for it is to clearly portray the stalker as pathetic and to have them act in a way we don't usually associate with stalkers, such as making them perky instead of outwardly creepy.

* {{Stripperiffic}}- I don't mind if outfits are a ''little'' sexy, but this is usually too much for me. Unless you've got a really good explanation, like how {{ComicBook/Black Canary}}'s fishnets are part of her rockstar ensemble and she uses the same outfit for both, I'm gonna find it cringeworthy. {{ComicBook/Huntress}}'s exposed stomach and {{ComicBook/Power Girl}}'s boob window are the worst offenders for me (that boob window would create so much drag when she flies!), which is a shame, because I actually really like both of them as characters. That said, this is more of an annoying trope than an actually ''hated'' trope, and the fact that some ''male'' superheroes dress surprisingly skimpily (like Vibe having a plunging neckline or how Dick Grayson!Robin didn't wear pants) makes it a bit more tolerable.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Film/Justice League of America}}- This movie is so very cheesy, but if you go in knowing that it's going to be a hot mess, you'll have a lot of fun.
