14When a nice, normal character suddenly goes into a rage, you've hit his BerserkButton.
15----
16* Mods that add cloaking functionality are a berserk button issue for the '''entire''' ''VideoGame/{{Freelancer}}'' community. Merely mentioning it is a ban-worthy offense on most ''Freelancer'' forums.
17* Go ahead and ask [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] when he'll release the next ''WebVideo/HistoryOfPowerRangers''.[[note]]Or give him spoilers from a season he hasn't covered yet.[[/note]] [[SchmuckBait We dare you]]. People constantly badgering him about this pissed him off to the point that he ended up using almost the entire first six minutes of one of the videos to rant about all the work that goes into the episodes and that badgering him about them does not make them come any faster.
18* On the gomanga.com message boards, don't fuck with Lord Styphon or else you're banned from the forum within the year.
19* Don't ever accuse Leo Laporte of being a shill when he gets a test product, or question his editorial independence. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsV-lgnAjps He will take you down]] and the [=TWiT=] Army will finish you off.
20* The internet is a raunchy, sometimes lawless, often vulgar place; but dare, just DARE insult [[Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood Fred Rogers's]] memory and you will have a flaming such as you have never known. This is the one man for whom the internet holds universal respect.
21* Never ''ever'' diss ''Series/ReadingRainbow'', or [=LeVar=] Burton for that matter, unless you want to have a verbal beatdown piled upon you. Double beatdowns can be obtained by making fun of the show or its host to a fan of [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration ST:TNG]]. [=LeVar=] was elevated to the same level as Rogers when PBS cancelled the show in 2009.
22* Because JustForFun/TVTropesWillRuinYourLife, do not link any page on this wiki, ever.
23* Speaking of TV Tropes, on the CompleteMonster Subpages cleanup forum, never bring up ''Film/ASerbianFilm'', ''Film/TheHumanCentipede'', pointlessly violent Fanfiction or CreepyPasta, or anything considered gratuitous and dark for the sake of being dark unless you want everyone to rage about how horrible those films and stories are.
24* NEVER, EVER, post a picture of [[MemeticMutation Weegee]] on the [=YouChewPoop=] forums. Anywhere. You will be ripped apart.
25** It's strangely disappointing that this has nothing to do with the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weegee photographer.]]
26* On Website/FourChan, there exist "rage inducing threads," whose sole purpose is to hit the Berserk Button of as many posters as possible.
27** This isn't simply trolling, it's actually more of a specific activity, approaching that of a game. The thread is even traditionally started out with the phrase "You get filled with rage, you lose." The starting image is usually a recent piece of CanonDisContinuity or some such.
28* [[PressXToDie Asking for Rule 34 of Yotsuba]] is typically a way to get the wrath of 4Chan thrown on you. It may have gotten to the point where no one is getting truly berserk, so much as that if someone [[ShmuckBait wants to be a target]], sometimes you'll get your wish.
29* Parodied reguarly in meme circles with Rage Comic, which has several variants now.
