12
13* ''WebVideo/AnalystBroniesReact'': Thespio pulls out his gun whenever someone says "Glim Glam in the Zim Zam".
14* ''WebVideo/AngelartsVALetsPlayEarthbound'': As far as Ness and company are concerned, the photo guy can go die in a hole. Ness and Paula even wonder at some points why the photo guy is stalking a group of children.
15* WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd has several:
16** Excessively long passwords, and [[DamnYouMuscleMemory using any other key besides A to jump]] are his two main ones.
17** Games [[BladderOfSteel without the pause features,]] such as ''Film/GhostbustersII'' on NES.
18** Seeing the LJN logo on a game cartridge has also caused him to snap.
19*** Which makes it even more funny when he finds out that ''Spiderman: Maximum Carnage'' on the SNES, which he considers the only Spiderman game that is good, was also made by LJN. The fact that LJN made a good game practically [[GoMadFromTheRevelation breaks his mind in the most dramatic way possible]].
20** ''GoddamnedBats!''[[invoked]]
21** The Medusa Heads in ''Castlevania'' have reportedly given him a pathological hatred of wavy lines.
22** Movie sequels that [[OddlyNamedSequel2ElectricBoogaloo don't follow a logical numbering system]].
23** Games with '''[[CheckPointStarvation NO CONTINUES!?!?]]''' after you die. It gets worse if the game combines this with OneHitKill or only having one life throughout the entire game.
24** Game cartridges with no end labels.
25** In ''Batman Part I'', when he explains the utterly ridiculous controls of the SNES ''Batman Forever'' game, which was designed with the ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' engine. He actually seems to have strained his voice by the end of the review.
26** AC adapters with built-in prongs (which tend to preclude the usage of the two adjacent sockets) also greatly annoy him, as seen in the Sega 32X and Dracula reviews. Related to this, ancient consoles which force the player to make use of an RF connector box for television hookups as opposed to just plugging a cable into a much simpler coaxial converter.
27** [[LoadsAndLoadsOfLoading Loading times]]. His annoyance with them is most pronounced in the ''Superman'' (Commodore),''Zelda's Adventure'' and ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006'' reviews.
28*** Also seen in the ''Batman Forever'' review, which ironically was a cartridge game.
29---->'''Nerd''': ...Whenever you access a new part of the game, it says "Hold On". Hold on for what? It has to fucking ''load''?!
30** [[MoonLogicPuzzle Overly cryptic puzzles]], such as in ''VideoGame/MilonsSecretCastle'' and ''VideoGame/SuperPitfall''.
31** Any game that has annoying design element that just makes the game more irritating to play--''Kid Kool'' is one example he particularly singled out, where he lists numerous design flaws (fittingly named "Seven Deadly Sins of Game Design") that blatantly hamper the experience, such as "One Way Bullshit" [[note]]Referring to the games RatchetScrolling, which can cause you to accidentally lose your method of attack[[/note]] "Topside Aquatic Ass" [[note]]A bizarre game mechanic where you have to do a mandatory jump by skipping across water three times, with the third time having to be ''perfectly'' timed or you die on the spot[[/note]] and "Two-Gear Diarrhea" [[note]] You can only run at two speeds, super slow or at uncontrollable speeds, and this also ties into the fact that the limited view ahead of the character makes it easy to collide into enemies, and some jumps require you to build momentum on ''very'' tiny ledges [[/note]].
32** If you don't think he can be overwhelmed by annoyance in how lacking in depth a game is, jump to 3:03 of [[https://youtu.be/lzt_uoTVAcE?t=3m3s this episode]] and note a problem at that point that got missed. [[spoiler:If you're wondering, let's just say it's not exactly a challenge to get a high score in that particular game due to evidence that the game is ''INCREDIBLY'' incomplete.]]
33** Out of his usual complaints, games with bad controls seem to be the chief problem. Generally, he can forgive a game for having bad graphics, obnoxious music, or obtuse clues, but ''never'' if it's a chore to actually operate.
34** Games with inconsistent and/or unfair rules really throw him off the deep end. ''VideoGame/{{Beetlejuice}}'' for NES is notorious for this ("Diarrhetic Diversions"), where you can fall to your death if the floor below is not on screen (the "Bitch Barrier") and yet can be hurt by torches not on screen.
35** As seen with ''Dick Tracy'' and ''Total Recall'', the idea of going to the video store as a kid and renting a game that turned out to suck, since it was the one game he could play that whole weekend, thus ruining his weekend.
36* Many of the members of Creator/AchievementHunter have their own Berserk Buttons, usually displayed during ''[[LetsPlay/AchievementHunterMinecraftSeries Let's Play Minecraft]]''.
37** Ray hates the cake item. He'll smash it on sight and once dug out of his own home when Gavin and Geoff sabotaged his home to shoot cake out of the walls. Also, as a fan of ''Anime/SailorMoon'''s Tuxedo Mask, don't mess with the roses. Just don't.
38** Creator/GavinFree is a {{troll}}, no ifs, ands or buts about it. But, stoop down to the point where you're cheating and he'll take offence at that. As well, as being DelicateAndSickly, Gavin doesn't entirely enjoy a GroinAttack.
39** Don't ruin something Geoff put a lot of work into. He'll drop his controller and start pounding the shit out of you. In RealLife.
40** Though part of the larger Rooster Teeth family, don't mention Las Vegas to Gus.
41* ItWebOriginal/DinaMarino has two:
42** Beng called pet names like ''love'' or ''treasure'' annoys her to no avail. Not even her boyfriend can call her that.
43** Talking about Roxen Glory around her is generally a bad idea.
44* In LetsPlay/GACKTGameCenter Music/{{GACKT}}'s most hated game is Xevious. Just ''remembering it makes him angry''
45* It might seem redundant to give the [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Angry_Marines Angry Marines]] a Berserk Button, as they're always angry, all the time. But something that'll really set them off is Heresy. Any mention of Heresy within earshot will have them grabbing their weapons and attacking the nearest object, or the ground if there's nothing else in sight, looking for the source of the Heresy.
46* The Fanfic/AntiClicheAndMarySueEliminationSociety:
47** Don't call Akai [[TheNapoleon short]] or insult one of her favorite characters.
48** Don't take Stephen's hat. '''Ever'''.
49* Don't dig up [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]]'s [[OldShame old fanfic]] (or old books), force him to listen to you read it, and ''then'' have the temerity to insult Series/DoctorWho. When Bennett the Sage pulled this stunt, Linkara escaped the ropes holding him into a chair and started laying a smackdown.
50** ''ComicBook/OneMoreDay'' and everything to do with also tends to send him into fits of rage.
51** As will killing the little sweet girl from his favorite comic: Lian Harper. Cry for Justice, you bastard. And you know it is for real too; this wasn't his normal anger; this was growling, snarling...[[TranquilFury and deadly calm]]. [[BewareTheNiceOnes Lewis Lovhaug pissed off is not remotely comedic, unlike his whiny "Oscar the Grouch" voice as Linkara.]]
52** Also, avoid demeaning WebVideo/IronLiz (don't even misgender her) if you don't want Linkara to bring the pain. And in case you're wondering, no, it's ''still'' not a good idea now that they're no longer a couple.
53** Linkara also doesn't like being mocked for still enjoying ''Franchise/PowerRangers''. When ''MightilyMurderedPowerRingers'' did it to him after coming to life, he retaliated by morphing into the [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Green Ranger]] and kicking the comic's ass.
54--->'''Linkara:''' Oh, bucko did you push the ''wrong'' button.
55** Apparently, a comic adaptation of ''Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan'' getting the movie's famous '''KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!''' scene incorrect[[note]]The comic reduced that particular bit to just one panel and Kirk just simply shouting it.[[/note]] is enough to cause Linkara to just absolutely lose it.
56* Brazilian blog about home video [[http://bjc.uol.com.br/ "Blog do Jotacê"]] has quite a few, helped by [[BadExportForYou the local distributors being so prone to employing them]]:
57** AspectRatio changes (Imagem Filmes does this so much that they call it "Mutilated Image Filmes")
58** Not offering the best image or audio quality, original audio, or original Portuguese dubbing (the Star Wars Trilogy Limited Edition DVD only has a Brazilian track in the Special Edition, the theatrical is English-only with subtitles)
59** Cheap ([[http://bjc.uol.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/007_qos.jpg oh]] [[http://jcvasc.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/fox-envelope1-thumb.jpg my]] [[http://www.blogdojotace.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Foto0267_thumb.jpg God]]), [[http://jcvasc.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/sete-palmos-temporada-scanavo.jpg troublesome]] or [[http://bjc.uol.com.br/2010/12/23/caray-novo-box-caverna-do-dragao-dos-eua-tem-a-pior-embalagem-do-mundo/ downright]] [[http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Site-News-Worst-DVD-Packaging-Ever/9813 atrocious]] packaging
60** {{Vanilla Edition}}s. Even more if the Brazilian version takes out DVDBonusContent seen overseas - at times ''whole disks''.
61** Price-gouging (Creator/WarnerBros Brazil, which [[IncompetenceInc irritates them so much they refer to it as "Várner"]], is [[http://bjc.uol.com.br/2012/10/15/os-ridiculos-400-reais-da-mascara-quebrada-de-batman-tdkr-em-blu-ray-no-brasil/ particularly]] [[http://bjc.uol.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/wizards-brasil-600x251.jpg infamous]])
62** False advertising (announcing bonuses which don't appear, Director's Cut when it's the theatrical one, etc.)
63* [=Ab3=] of ''The Literature/BinderOfShame'' kills off player characters for making Monty Python references and, after excessive experience with El Disgusto's habit, now twitches every time someone mentions ninjas. El Disgusto himself flies into a rage when someone intentionally or accidentally refers to the time [[GroinAttack his dog bit his penis]], unsurprisingly.
64* WebVideo/Boogie2988's character, Francis, has many of these, but the biggest by far is when he thinks that someone is making fun of his weight.
65* Maffew of {{Website/Botchamania}} seems to have a minor one, which is misuse of the phrase "Couldn't Care Less."
66* ''WebVideo/{{Caddicarus}}'' has a few.
67** Media aimed at children that treats its audience like idiots. ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'' is the worst offender of this for him due to its {{Padding}} and unnecessary narration, and he has ranted many times about how children may be more easily amused, but they are ''not'' stupid, and they ''can'' tell when something is bad. For proof, he got his (step)-kids to watch the aforementioned show, and they too thought it was bad.
68** The company Creator/PhoenixGames, which he describes as being for him what LJN is to WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd.
69** Even his dog Stan has a few. According to Caddicarus (and proven during a stream), for some reason, singing "Hickory Dickory David" (singing "Hickory Dickory Dock" seems to irritate him too, but not to as much of an extent) or a specific scatting segment from a ''Music/KanyeWest'' song will make Stan bite your face. Even Caddy doesn't know why. He also hates church bells, apparently.
70** During his streams, Caddy tends to get really pissed off whenever he fails due to something beyond his control.
71** Oh, and do ''not'' misrepresent Crash Bandicoot or miss the point of his character, as ''WesternAnimation/SkylandersAcademy'' did.
72* The cartoon reviewer ''WebVideo/CellSpex'' is '''not''' fan of the [[RomanticPlotTumor over abundance of Romance in media]].
73** She absolutely ''despises'' the overprotective dad trope. Particularly when said dad is the father of a grown woman, which she finds creepy.
74** Touch her bandana and she will bite you.
75** The TheChosenOne trope.
76** Jukebox musicals.
77* [=YouTube=] commentator [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8BIzpTu-VHSM88LMOqz4eg Silver]] despises his [[https://youtu.be/mBQWOt7cYA4&feature=youtu.be very first commentary]]. Attempting to remind him of it as a form of torture would be a very bad idea, [[https://youtu.be/xvbCvL5PdRo?t=1m17s which The Devil found out the hard way.]]
78* WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob has a few berserk buttons...
79** "Shot on shitteo".
80** Italian movies with [[IHaveManyNames about fifteen alternate titles]].
81** The [[HollywoodNight Day for Night]] special effect.
82** He also hates movies with abrupt endings.
83* ''WebVideo/CinemaSins'' has '''''a lot''''' of Berserk Buttons, but just to name a few:
84** ToiletHumor
85** Radio Shack
86** Creator/JohnTravolta
87** Cliches of any kind
88** Littering
89** [[VerbalTic Verbal/Vocal/Physical Tics]]
90** People eating apples
91** Credit intros, especially if they're around 30 seconds long
92* [[LetsPlay/ClementJ642 The Great Clement]] [[UnstoppableRage really]], really, ''[[DrivenToMadness really]]'' hates ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic '06]]''.
93** Though, ''VideoGame/MegaManX6'' is a close second for him.
94* Both Cactuar and Tonberry from the ''Final Fantasy'' series by Crazy Boris have theirs.
95** Tonberry is eventually pushed to such a breaking point by Cactuar's stupidity that he sets the poor idiot on fire-- ''twice''-- in "Gil Quest".
96** Cactuar goes ballistic upon being called "Fatty" by a cop in "Final Fantasy: Fugitive", and proceeds to morph into a giant, psychotically violent, needle-throwing version of himself. [[spoiler: If a fleet of fighter jets arrive, he turns back to "normal" self, but saying "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" and runs.]]
97** He also gets really pissed at Aerosmith for misspelling his name in "Resident Cactuar".
98** And whatever you do, DON'T mention Mary Kate and Ashley around him...
99** In another one of Crazy Boris' animations, Dimwit Quest, don't even think about trying to take Jim's bag of Powdered Sugar.
100* [[BloodKnight Grog]] of ''WebVideo/CriticalRole'' reacts...[[UnstoppableRage badly]] to anyone messing with his cask of ale. Or his beard.
101* In ''Roleplay/DarwinsSoldiers'', a group of thugs at a food court insinuated that Aimee, who has [[{{Cyborg}} robotic arms]], was a cripple. Seconds later, five of the thugs were dead.
102* In WebVideo/DatabaseRangersPowerReviews Just as in Power Rangers RPM, never, ever say the word "spandex" around Dr. K, especially regarding the suits' material. Just don't.
103* ''WebOriginal/DavidKalla'' does not like being called Grundler, especially Ella and his friend Sebastian Martinez.
104** Not only that, but he will [[HateSink threaten to watch the world burn]].
105* In ''Roleplay/DawnOfANewAgeOldportBlues'', Simon and his alter-ego the Dark Dragon are enraged by the very presence of police officers, implied to be a result of experiencing PoliceBrutality in their past. While Simon tries to repress it, Dark Dragon has no such inhibitions and quickly becomes violent while around the police.
106* Do not hug Dracon. He doesn't need a hug. He needs you to stay far away.
107* In ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'', Goku takes Christmas very seriously. Do anything to jeopardize it, and you may not live to see New Year's.
108** When someone refers to Goku as more important/powerful than Vegeta, you have pressed the (as referred to Future-Trunks) ''Goku Button'' (Episode 49).
109** Cooler has much the same button in regards to Freeza. He does NOT like being compared (particularly in regards to similarity) to his brother. At. All.
110** Mr. Popo is already a rather unpleasant individual, but any display of incompetence at your job will ensure he hates you. And if you call him "black man" he will likely throw you off the Lookout no matter who you are.
111** Burter is very self-conscious about his self-proclaimed status as the fastest guy in the universe. He gets really defensive whenever anyone points out the various faster entities that exist thanks to their superior power levels, and when Jeice goes so far as to point out that thanks to his time-stopping abilities, even [[ButtMonkey Guldo]] was technically faster, Jeice starts loudly ranting.
112* ''WebVideo/DontHugMeImScared'':
113** Tony the clock starts making loud, ''very'' angry ticking noises when the other characters start questioning the core concepts of time.
114** Colin the computer freaks out and starts to glitch [[HatesBeingTouched when touched]].
115** [[TheyKilledKennyAgain Balloon]] doesn't like his deaths being mentioned.
116** Bill doesn't let ANYONE mention his original name!
117** Averted with Blake. Even though he'll act like he's mad, finding a GameBreakingBug is actually something he likes, since it means he has room for improvement.
118* WebVideo/DrGlaucomflecken: Saying "altered mental status" or saying that a neurological test was "nonfocal" or "unremarkable" causes the Neurologist to appear and berate whoever said it.
119* Creator/DudePerfect's Tyler Toney frequently lampshades this trope in the group's videos.
120* Do ''not'' compare [[https://www.youtube.com/user/EmptysAwesome EmptysAwesome]] to Creator/JoshPeck.
121* Make sure to never play on Cobblestone with Da Nugget of the [=GIProz=].
122* Anna Demorah, in ''Felarya'', tends to be somewhat cranky, but she'll leave you alone... unless you make the mistake of smoking in front of her. The fact has come up so often in fanfiction that it's rather killed the original humor.
123* In Creator/FreddieWong's short ''Don't F With My Cream'', two robbers who knock over an ice cream parlor learn a [[GunsAkimbo very]] [[MoreDakka painful]] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill lesson]] when they mess with Freddie's ice cream.
124** The two guys whose fighting ends up destroying the work of the ''Sandcastle Sensei'' also don't get out of things unscathed.
125* [[VideoGame/HalfLife Gordon Freeman]], at least as interpreted by ''WebVideo/FreemansMind'', isn't the most stable of individuals by any means, but what ''really'' sets him off are bugs, which he will chase while flailing away with his crowbar before [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill pulling out an MP5 or shotgun]]. He also gets upset when confronted with yet another locked door or dead end.
126* The ''WebVideo/GameGrumps'' have a few of these.
127** Jon hates it when Arin belches. He yelled at Arin for it in ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Pokemon Emerald]] #13, and stormed off for a bit when it happened in ''VideoGame/KirbySuperStar'' #17.
128** Jon will actually devolve into angry cursing ''mid-sentence'' if Arin belches. It almost makes him ''physically ill'' in Part 30 of ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic 06]]''.
129** One of the Grumps has never seen ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings''. This revelation causes the other Grump to cough blood. (''Sonic'' #57)
130--->'''Jon:''' It's just like, "durr, I haven't seen ''Franchise/StarWars''..!"\
131'''Arin:''' What the fu-- There's a '''lot of people''' who haven't seen ''Star Wars''!\
132'''Jon:''' '''''FUCK THEM!'''''\
133'''Arin:''' Corey didn't see ''Star Wars'', and I just showed it to him last night!\
134'''Jon:''' Corey hasn't seen Star War-- ''(indistinct)'' GET OVER HERE YOU PIECE OF SHIT! I'm gonna go beat him up!
135** In Pokemon Emerald episode 13, Jon and Arin talk about how one night, they went to Disneyland during grad night and, while riding Star Tours, most of the grad night students were yelling obnoxiously about how awesome they were. At the end of the ride, Jon, who had politely asked them to quiet down before, ends up yelling at them for being rude and disruptive throughout the whole ride.
136** Back in [[WebVideo/JonTron his own show]] (and on panels related to it), Jon seems to hate it whenever his sleeping habits are criticized.
137--->''I made it past age 18, I pay my bills, I pay my taxes, '''I'll sleep whenever the fuck I want. Fuck you.'''''\
138''WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU TO TELL ME TO GO TO BED!?''
139* Certain short-sighted design trends will ''always'' earn a rant from ''WebVideo/GamersNexus'':
140** In the late 2010s it was "smart" devices and software which pointlessly bloated the computer.
141** PC cases that obstruct airflow, ''especially'' those which have fans on the front which are blocked by glass panels, completely negating the point of the fans being there in the first place except for decoration. Reached its nadir with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OupiPZybyBE&t Abkoncore Ramesses]], which had 12 fans of which less than half had any access to air at all.
142** As Gigabyte and NZXT found out to their cost, Gamers Nexus does ''not'' respond kindly to legitimate safety concerns with products being responded to with willful ignorance.
143** They've been recently quite critical about the state of Graphics Card performance year-over-year, especially in the 2020's realizing that while yes, they are hard to come by, [=AMD=] and Nvidia are effectively destroying the ability for people to even access one of the more vital parts of completing their computers.
144** Pre-built computers that use proprietary, incompatible components, on the basis that they can't then be upgraded and are as such destined to eventually be disposed of and become "e-waste".
145** Any and all instances of deceptive sales practice, especially [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DMg6hUudHE in combination with terrible pre-built PCs]].
146* In Hassan Khadair's ''WebVideo/MickeyMouseReacts'' videos, Mickey flies into a comical, murderous rage whenever he watches a video involving food being wasted.
147* In the short lived zombie webseries ''WebVideo/HellsParadise'', don't suggest the beach as a meeting place to Jarid. Jarid. Hates. The beach.
148* ''WebVideo/HellsingUltimateAbridged'': [[BigBad The Major]] doesn't "like" war. He ''[[BloodKnight loves]]'' war. He loves it so much that he delivers an entire speech about how much he loves war, no matter what form it takes... ''except'' for the UsefulNotes/{{Cold War}}.
149-->'''The Major:''' Blue-balled for ''forty'' years...
150* Hoodoo Hoodlum's Revenge:
151** Bad Creepypastas, especially Jeff the Killer. [[https://youtu.be/iCZA97eXGkk Behold]]
152** [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man]] became this for him in later years, blaming the HypeBacklash caused by its popularity boom in 2014 and fangirls turning the terrifying entity into something ''not'' scary. So much so that when [[Film/SlenderMan the movie of the same name]] dropped, he opted to ''review it and every known Slenderman film out there and rip them a new one''. [[UnstoppableRage Damn.]]
153* The WebVideo/HitlerRants videos, particularly the commonly-used bunker scenes, involve Hitler himself melting down over anything, no matter how trivial. He also doesn't take well to the antics of [[TheTrickster Hermann Fegelein]] or [[CommanderContrarian Jodl's objections]].
154* In ''WebVideo/ImAMarvelAndImADC'', Green Goblin is a huge fan of [[LargeHam Willem Dafoe]], his [[Film/SpiderMan1 film portrayer]]. So when the Joker says "I'm grateful Dafoe didn't play me in [[Film/Batman1989 the Tim Burton movie]]," he promptly gets his ass kicked.
155* Jeff, the hero of Ewen Cluney's anime-inspired story "Interesting Times," is a nice guy, if something of a WeirdnessMagnet. But that comic collection that he maintains? Don't mess with it. You will not like him if you mess with it.
156* Blogger [[http://marmadukeexplained.blogspot.com/ Joe Mathlete]] will take a lot of nonsense from ''ComicStrip/{{Marmaduke}}'' creator Brad Anderson, but one thing he will not stand for is [[http://marmadukeexplained.blogspot.com/2007/10/stop-stop-it-jesus-christ-stop-it.html an inaccurate depiction of the Moonwalk.]]
157* It's best not to call Pinisu-chan a donut. She's a ''Webcomic/LargeBagel''.
158* ''WebVideo/LeftPOORDead'': Dr. Smedly isn't UNREASONABLE! He's just being a dick!
159* Go on, compare [[ComicBook/LessThanThreeComics Firestorm]] to his dad. We dare you.
160* A number of characters have one of these in ''Roleplay/TheMadScientistWars'', most noticeably Andrew Tinker. No matter how tempted you are, or how true it is, ''do not call him names (especially effeminate insults). The last person got pinned to a wall by their '''neck'''.
161* NEVER refer to Franchise/SuperSentai as Franchise/PowerRangers to Matoi.
162* Kora, leader of the WebVideo/MediaWhorz round table has no tolerance for bad movies using legendary quotes from great movies. When Creator/UweBoll's Bloodrayne film used a quote from ''Film/TheGodfather,'' he got angry enough to break.
163* ''WebVideo/TheMarkRemark'': After the announcers claimed that Wrestling/SinCara stands for "You're eliminated", Martin was very distressed the next episode to find they said it stood for something else. Now whenever they can't decide what it stands for, Martin breaks a pencil.
164* In the ''Snob'' spinoff ''WebVideo/MidnightScreenings'', Jake's button is [[LamePunReaction puns]].
165* J from ''WebVideo/MisadventuresOfAwkwardBlackGirl'' hates when people touch her stapler. She ends up being forced to go to an anger management people with other people whose pet peeves include e-mails written in [[UsefulNotes/{{Fonts}} Comic Sans]] and people who don't let the microwave time run out.
166* ''WebVideo/MortalKombatLegacy'':
167** Fading actor Johnny Cage pitches an idea for a new action show, but the executives turn him down, saying action is no longer in. As he's leaving, he overhears the executives using his idea, but offering it to an actress as the lead instead. Johnny gives the executives and some intervening security guards a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.
168* WebVideo/MatthewSantoro:
169** Whenever someone criticizes Apple, nerdy Eugene tries to attack them with a [[Franchise/StarWars lightsaber]].
170** If anyone leaves a {{troll}} comment on one of Matt's videos, [[TheBigGuy Big Shine]] will beat them up.
171* [=MisterMetokur=] is usually able to keep up a laid-back irreverent funnyman persona regardless of how bizarre or creepy his subject matter is. When dealing with people who [[WouldHurtAChild willingly hurt or pose an active danger to children]], however, [[TranquilFury he can barely keep his rage contained]]. He's especially hateful towards people who somehow managed to get jobs working with the children they actively want/try to harm, such as [[DepravedDentist Howard S. Schneider]].
172* ''WebVideo/MLPAnalysis'':
173** Do ''NOT'' mention ''A Canterlot Wedding'' in [=AnthonyC=]'s presence.
174*** More specifically, do not bring up Luna's suspicious absence.
175*** He was also quite ticked off by ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls Equestria Girls]]'' turning the Mane Six into high school students.
176** Furthermore, don't ever mention WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft in the presence of Voice of Reason.
177** Zaid Magenta [[note]](previously [=MisAnthroPony=] before September 2, 2022)[[/note]] was not at all happy with the twist where Grogar was revealed to be Discord in disguise, partly because it threw away all of the potential that Grogar had as the final villain of the show, and more importantly because it completely derailed the character development that Discord had after Season 4.
178*** Unless you want to get screamed at, do not send anyone death threats and let him find out about it. He went absolutely BERSERK when he found out about the death threats that Amy Keating Rogers received and brutally chewed out those who were responsible.
179* ''Mob Squad'':
180** If you're a PlayerCharacter, do ''not'' look Cameron in the eyes. (Justified - he is an [[DontLookAtMe Enderman]], after all.) Unlike most Endermen, though, he just gets PO'd, and can easily be pacified by amazing him somehow ([[AttentionDeficitOohShiny which isn't hard to do]]). [[spoiler:It takes ''two'' glances to unleash his demonic fury. God help you if you do that.]]
181* In ''Webvideo/TheMusicVideoShow'', Kiara herself has a genuine hatred for Jake & Logan Paul, flat out stating, "They should suck a cock and rot in Hell." Episodes featuring them are filled with TranquilFury. To a lesser extent, Drake.
182* Austria 2002 is a ''very'' touchy subject on ''WebVideo/MysteryScienceTheaterF1''.
183* Do ''not'' admit that you liked ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 3}}'' or ''[[VideoGame/FalloutBrotherhoodOfSteel Brotherhood of Steel]]'' on ''No Mutants Allowed''.
184* British Youtuber LetsPlay/TearofGrace has many such examples, most of them while playing ''VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaac'':
185** Whenever the game decides to rendomly drop Bob's Brain, an item he considers utterly useless.
186** Whenever the game decides to spawn The Haunt, especially while he's playing as The Lost and getting a lot of good items beforehand, since The Haunt is a rather difficult enemy and he tends to die a lot to him.
187* Don't tell WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick that [[TheLadette she]] has to only review "girly" stuff.
188** More in a FelonyMisdemeanor fashion, she (the egotistical character, not the nice actress) really hates being called a nerd.
189* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic does not appreciate ''Film/BatmanAndRobin'' creating the [[strike:Bat-credit card]] '''''[[UnstoppableRage BAT-CREDIT CARD!!!]]''''' [[Funny/TheNostalgiaCritic2008Episodes The full rant is available here]].
190** The "Bat Credit Card" and ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' drive him to psychopathic rage. By ''Christmas With The Kranks/Bunny Boobies'', both still make him angry, but he's more pissed off and upset that people keep wanting him to do both {{freak out}}s over and over. (Doug said in a 2012 interview that the former meme has given him a twitchy eye.)
191** Since the show began again in 2013, the Critic ''despises'' [=TMZ=].
192** Even after the reboot, he hates it when people bring up ''Doug''. In the "Disney Afternoon" episode, when Malcolm said how good ''Doug'' was, there was a cut and Malcolm nursing a black eye and couldn't feel much in his mouth.
193*** Additionally NEVER, ever sing or play the Doug theme song (the Nick version, that is; the Disney version is fine) in front of Doug Walker or he will murder you.
194** If a movie has heavy-handed symbolism and religious metaphors, the Critic will show it no mercy.
195** He would also kindly like you to not say the proper name of ''WesternAnimation/{{D|uckTales1987}}T'' because the [[EarWorm theme song]] finally got out of him.
196** Despite him lampshading that they ended in a sweet place at WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee, a little girl gets beaten to death (offscreen) because she mistook him for the Nerd.
197** Anyone but himself bringing up ''WebVideo/DemoReel''. Dr Hack at the end of ''Anime/SailorMoon'' got a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown for saying the show's concept would make him money, and Yo in ''WebVideo/PopQuizHotshot'' uses it to intentionally make him ChangeTheUncomfortableSubject.
198** He never really enjoyed it, but TestosteronePoisoning seems to genuinely anger him in reboot. Even when he's into it he feels guilty and complains that he doesn't want to fit into his gender.
199** Ever since Hyper kidnapped him, he hates people being too calm about being held hostage. A lot of '' The THIRD Animated Titanic Movie'' is him getting loudly upset about it.
200** Don't tell [[WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers Ma-Ti]] that HeartIsAnAwesomePower.
201** The best way to have Channel Awesome [[{{Unperson}} virtually obliterate you from existence]]? Talk smack about "dodging a BJ from [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick Lindsay]]", as [=ThatAussieGuy=] apparently learned the hard way.
202*** Apparently though Dan Rizzo was doing a bunch of corrupt things behind everyone's back and abusing his admin powers, so he was already skating on thin ice at that point, that was just the final straw.
203** Doug is furious with the very idea of the "State Home For The Ugly" from ''Film/TheGarbagePailKidsMovie'', as shown [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/36806-worst-nc-reviewed-movies-ever here.]] Apparently the anger shown in the NC review wasn't played up for laughs, since he goes into a legitimate boiling rage while discussing the film after remaining relatively calm when discussing the other ones. He then delivers an especially brutal TheReasonYouSuckSpeech at the film by saying it was worse than Manos because at least that was made by a farmer with no budget and wasn't intended for kids. He further goes on to say that the only good thing about the movie is that because there is nothing remotely good about it that it'll be quickly forgotten.
204** In general, Nostalgia Critic also gets upset when he feels that a movie or TV show has been half-assed. His hatred of not putting effort into things is so great that it spawned a 10-minute rant at the end of his review of ''WesternAnimation/TheChristmasTree'' because he believes that Christmas requires genuine thought and effort to truly be special and joyous.
205** He massacred the cast of ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' after being told that he could learn something from a sloth(?).
206* WebVideo/ObscurusLupa really, ''really'' hates "AllJustADream" endings. And ''Gerry''.
207* The characters of ''Blog/OffThePageAndIntoLife'' have a couple:
208** Gail: Terrence and being told her birth parents didn't love her.
209** Terrence: Gail, short jokes, and being called "Terry."
210* In WebVideo/{{Paw|Dugan}} and Co's [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/teamt/paw/specials/16364-dragonball-evolution review of]] Film/DragonballEvolution...Y Ruler Of Time, didn't take [[{{Wangst}} Emo]] [[IJustWantToBeNormal Teen]] [[NotAsYouKnowThem Goku]] too well, he especially didn't appreciate referring to Energy Blasts such as "WesternAnimation/{{a|vatarTheLastAirbender}}irbending".
211* WebVideo/PieGuyRulz and sharp objects have an...interesting relationship.
212--> I jump straight onto a thumbtack sticking up. I am terrified of needles. This was a very bad experience for me. If he (his roommate) had been there, he would have heard my wrath.
213--->-- Pie Guy describing an incident in [[SuckySchool college]].
214** Not to mention this little doozy from his [[https://youtu.be/KjB2DaeIcFQ Splinter Rant]]
215---> Especially for someone like me, whose terrified of needles and sharp objects, seeing the very real pain of getting a splinter on WesternAnimation/{{SpongeBob|SquarePants}} is just so agonizing.
216* ''Website/DesuDesBrigade''
217** Professor Otaku is prone to bringing himself to the brink of sheer breakdowns, but more often than not reigns himself in. However, ''Anime/MDGeist'' and SorcererStabberOrphenRevenge have seen him lashing out at his hated foes of Moe and stupidity rather loudly.
218** Vixen wound up in such a rage that she denied her traditional Chill-out Food a mere 10 minutes into ''[[Film/{{Twilight}} New Moon]]''. The terror that was wrought on the universe will never been erased.
219* ''WebVideo/MrCoat'': He ''very'' much dislikes it when people call an adaptation of the original work a remake of the earlier film version, especially with Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory'' and the 2014 ''Film/{{Annie|2014}}'' movie. He does make exception to this for films that take more from the earlier movie, like Creator/GusVanSant's ''Film/{{Psycho|1998}}'' and the 2003 version of ''Film/{{The Italian Job|2003}}''.
220* In ''Film/ProjectMillion'', WebVideo/DiamandaHagan is not pleased when Critic TV dismisses her invasion of Channel Awesome as nothing special.
221** Creator/CinWicked blows a fuse over the Canadian music groups on display at Disneyland.
222* ''WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum'': Agent Trojie has such a deep respect for Music/KurtCobain that writing bad RealPersonFic involving him is enough to send her into a burning rage.
223* It's well known that LetsPlay/ProtonJon of LetsPlay fame '''''hates''''' [[InvisibleBlock Invisible Coin Blocks]]. Naturally, people sent him tons of Mario {{Rom Hack}}s with egregious levels of invisible coin blocks being used in tedious ways. Initially when he's angry he sounds like Ren from Ren and Stimpy, but over time it gets less comical and more like Regan from ''Film/TheExorcist''. Eventually Jon got so ticked that he responded by creating an incredibly tedious rom hack level himself with ''nothing'' but invisible coin blocks, and promised to make more levels with other things that irritated him if people didn't lay off some of these tricks. [[https://youtu.be/5smRNDrkTF8 Here's a video of another Let's Player going through the level]]. To quote a youtube comment:
224-->The way Proton Jon's insanity drove him to make a level full of invisible coin blocks is similar to how Jack Torrence typed all those pages of "[[MadnessMantra All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy]]".
225** Do not mention his ''VideoGame/Superman64'' LP to him, especially if asking when the next episode is coming out. He has gone on 20-minutes rants about it whenever it gets mentioned during his streams.
226* LetsPlay/{{Levelengine}} has also hated invisible coin blocks ever since his tool-assisted walkthrough of ''VideoGame/HammerBrother''.
227** Another one is overpowered custom bosses. See Super Mario Kollision 2 and ''VideoGame/MarioEndgame'' for examples.
228* Rather Vocalized Illusion. The mere mention of ''My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'' sends Bhaalspawn into a frenzy.
229** Also, mentioning love around the Psychosocialist has a similar effect.
230* While [[WebVideo/ReactionAndReview Hellsing920]] is normally a pretty cool, calm and collected person, if he goes through a movie in his ''WebVideo/ReactionAndReview'' series and someone [[GroinAttack gets their junk mutilated somehow]], he will go off.
231** In the name of all that's good, don't [[Film/{{Birdemic}} demand a happy meal]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext while on the beach]]. He will be out for blood.
232* ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'' has a sequence where [[TheDitz Caboose]] intentionally pushes his own Berserk Button.
233--> '''Caboose''': My name is Michael J. Caboose and ''I hate babies''!
234** Epsilon has two: being called "a thing", and the mere sight of Agent Washington.
235---> '''Epsilon''': YOU WILL FEAR MY LASERFACE!
236** You can call Tex many things, but for the love of God, don't call her a shadow. [[spoiler: In context, Tex is an AI copy of the human Allison Church, hence Agent Connecticut (who found out the connection), calling her a shadow of the real Allison.]]
237---> '''Tex''': What did you just call me?!
238*** Um... Nice Tex? Good Tex?
239** Also, don't mention Tex to Carolina. That's guaranteed to get you a smackdown for the ages.
240* [=LPing=] a game [[WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}} slowbeef]] likes is a good way to get him on your bad side. He seemed a lot more irritated at the videos of ''VideoGame/{{Contra}} III'', ''VisualNovel/{{Snatcher}}'', and ''VisualNovel/{{Policenauts}}''.
241** More specifically, [=LPing=] them badly. Or any game he especially likes, for that matter. That goes for reviewing as well.
242** Slowbeef also dislikes people who read out character dialogue in "silly" voices and people that [[LargeHam chew the scenery]] way too often. Which is ironic given his decision to LP ''VideoGame/{{Phantasmagoria}}'' with his [[Website/SomethingAwful forum]] superior Creator/{{Lowtax}}, who has [[LetsPlay/GamingGarbage built a history of those very things]].
243** He also seems to have quite a dislike for people who think adding crafting to a game (in particular, RPG games) makes it better. He gets quite indignant in a number of the "Website/{{Kickstarter}} Non-starter" videos involving games decides to throw in a crafting element.
244* The cast of Podcast/RocherHotel have a few, with one example being Luke's supposed addiction to Toys/{{Amiibo}}.
245* All three members of LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys have one:
246** {{LetsPlay/Chuggaaconroy}} hates the name Steve, due to CreatorBacklash from accidentally creating a MemeticBadass with that name.
247*** He also strongly dislikes signposts in games that have to be read from the front, to the extent that he calls ''VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeonRescueTeam DX'' axing that design choice from the original game the single best change in the entire [[VideoGameRemake remake]].
248*** Do not mention ''VideoGame/PaperMarioStickerStar'' in front of him. The game is one of his most personal hated games of all time.
249** LetsPlay/ProtonJon hates all of his old {{CatchPhrase}}s being referenced, but special mention goes to "MOVE FASTER POKEY!" and "Don't eat the mushroom".
250** LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun, though generally the quietest and nicest of the three, has a PlayedForLaughs berserk button in the form of green rupees. He also has a straight version in the form of his own constant failures, which usually result in either a BigWhat or him temporarily becoming a DeadpanSnarker.
251* Sonia, from ''Literature/TheSaints'', hates the in-universe book and film series Bone Eclipse.
252* ''Creator/SamAndMickey'': The phrase "Dijon mustard" flies Barbie into a rage, because it reminds her of when a perfect dinner party with Midge and Alan went downhill due to a lack of the condiment.
253* ''WebVideo/SBIRust'': When Piss Wizard's playing music, you'd better respect him, or he'll get pissed.
254* Website/SCPFoundation: [=SCPs=] are not immune to this:
255** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-076 SCP-076-2]], code-name "Able" is AxCrazy nearly all the time, but if he ever sees the symbol on [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-073 SCP-073]]'s (code-name "{{Cain|AndAbel}}") head, he goes utterly berserk and drops everything to attack Cain.
256** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-096 SCP-096]], code-name "Shy Guy" is normally passive and no threat to anyone. However, if [[DontLookAtMe anyone sees it's face]], in person or through a photograph or video footage, it enters a screaming fury and runs towards the viewer at breakneck speed intending to tear the unfortunate person limb-from-limb, and [[TheJuggernaut nothing will stop it]]. It doesn't flinch at high-power weapons and will tear through concrete to get to you. Because of this, 096 is a huge threat to the public if it escapes; if an image of it's face was put on the news...
257** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-261 SCP-261]], a sentient and multiversal vending machine, will try to poison you if you use counterfeit money with it. The coin-on-a-string trick is also a way to get on its bad side; it used to cause the machine to simply give you food that you'd puke back out instantly, but it got so tired of that it dispensed a ''live grenade'' and killed several of the testers involved.
258** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-457 SCP-457]], the so-called "Burning Man", ''hates'' water.
259** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-516 SCP-516]], the "Intelligent Tank", despises traitors to its country, and will blow them up without its usual [[NeverHurtAnInnocent restraint]].
260** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-682 SCP-682]], code-name "The Hard-to-Destroy Reptile", has pretty much [[OmnicidalManiac all Earth life]] as its Berserk Button.
261** Finally, [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-953 SCP-953]], code-name "The Polymorphic Humanoid", doesn't appreciate being called a [[AsianFoxSpirit kitsune]]: [[InsistentTerminology she's a kumiho]]. Also, UsefulNotes/{{furr|yFandom}}ies piss her off, and she once killed 27 attendees of a furry convention.
262** [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-2513 SCP-2513]] is a bridge that, when crossed from North to South, will cause you to utterly despise Carthage and anything associated with it, and react violently when presented with anything of the sort; praising Carthage, Hannibal or anything related in front of someone who's crossed the bridge this way will make them try to kill you. Even being aware the city doesn't exist anymore will not abate it; the specific area of Africa it used to be in and anyone from there will get the same hatred. Crossing it South to North will reverse the effects, thankfully, leaving the affected ones ''very'' confused.
263--->'''D-29632:''' Uh, sorry. You just said the word "Carthage" and I felt like I needed to beat your brains in.
264* ''WebVideo/SgtDucky'':
265** Stupid People in general for Ducky because of his history of working in retail. His ex is also another one because she cheated on him multiple times and came across as incredibly spoiled due to an incident where she forced him to take her to an expensive restaurant.
266** For PJ, it's experiencing any type of difficulty while playing a video game can lead him into a rage... despite the fact that he chooses to always play games at the hardest difficulties.
267* WebSite/SFDebris has a few of these:
268** He has a low tolerance for 'zany' scenes of childbirth. His "Annoying Character" award for "The Begotten" went to everyone involved in the childbirth B-Plot. Everyone.
269** He absolutely hates GoodOldWays aesops, pointing out how technology has improved our lives. He can ''tolerate'' scientific flubs and technobabble, but insinuating that ''cavemen'' are morally superior really grinds his gears, [[AuthorFilibuster to say the least]].
270* [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man]] has two: When people claim he [[https://youtu.be/WN5QzKLETNI&list=PLA539569306F1CD77&index=6&feature=plpp_video doesn't]] [[https://youtu.be/N3pqBEJkYeI&list=PL1AA6C599BE2D500D&index=15&feature=plpp_video exist]] and when people [[http://helpingthosehelpthemselves.blogspot.ca/2011/04/red-building.html make fun of his suit.]]
271* On any of WebVideo/SkyWilliams' videos, whenever Sky or someone else mentions the phrase "[[LetsPlay/VideoGameDunkey Dunkey]] beat Sky in [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Smash]]," Sky gets really ticked off and stops joking immediately.
272* WebVideo/{{Smosh}}'s SHUT UP! Cartoons had this in episode 3 of "Zombies Vs. Ninjas." One part had Tanzy trying to stop the haters from hating ninjas, but when the man said, "We hate you," Tanzy went on a cursing rampage, [[https://youtu.be/RLA9uaR1Dmc&t=2m36s cursing the man out with every swear word she has.]]
273* It's best not to give Mutahar of WebVideo/SomeOrdinaryGamers under-cooked chicken. He will not appreciate it.
274** Considering that he also reads and gives thorough critiques of various short horror fiction and {{Creepypasta}}s of varying quality, there are of course a few PetPeeveTrope's he has that he would really like to see less of. [[CreepyDoll creepy dolls]], TearsOfBlood, Hyperrealmism, to name a few.
275* ''WebVideo/SMPLive'': There are plenty of things that will set Schlatt off, but playing Stal around him is a one-way ticket to permanently damaging your eardrums.
276* The end of the Website/SomethingAwful WTF D&D article about very immature mature content in ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'' has Zack Parsons flip out spectacularly upon seeing the (admittedly atrocious) [[DudeNotFunny Lillun comic]], declaring that everyone working for Creator/WhiteWolf should be "fucked with sticks of dynamite" and that anyone who donated to the third edition kickstarter should "burn in hell"...apparently not realising that nearly all Exalted fans, and [[MisBlamed the entire current writing team]], [[FanonDiscontinuity absolutely despise that part of the Infernals book, sometimes to the extent of ripping those pages out of physical copies]].
277* Oh, yeah, and don't praise any ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' game past 1999 on Sonic Retro. You will be trolled.
278* Speaking of Sonic, on the ''Blog/SonicTheHedgehogTwitter'', do NOT ask Shadow about [[TheLostLenore Maria]] (unless he brings her up first) if you value your life.
279* WebVideo/SovietWomble has a pretty distinctive BerserkButton for someone who is an internet personality: He ''hates'' ProductPlacement. A good example was this moment in [[https://youtu.be/JFtB_9aW0bg?t=5m22s the Random Arma Bullshitery (Part 7) video]], where he got angry after he returned back (he went AFK for a while) and found out that ''almost everyone in the server'' starts to plug Creator/{{Ubisoft}} games, Creator/ElectronicArts games, and pre-ordering in general when he went AFK; with his partner Cyanide even plugging his Twitch channel and Twitter account as well.
280* Don't tell [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment The Spoony One]] that he is in your spot. He will go crazy. He couldn't handle living with [[Series/TheBigBangTheory Sheldon Cooper]].
281** Also, don't bring up [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyX Tidus]]. Ever.
282** And don't have a wrestling program with no wrestling.
283** [[VideoGame/UltimaIX Ultima IX: Ascension]] is the video game (or possibly work of fiction '''in general''') Spoony hates the most, Just mentioning it makes him berserk. He hates it so much [[NightmareFuel it gave him]] ''[[NightmareFuel visible mental and physical damage]]'' [[NightmareFuel when he reviewed it]]!
284*** "what's a paladin?"
285** There's a lot more, but these are probably the biggest.
286* WebVideo/StuartAshen has a few things that tend to draw out his ire in reviews, the biggest ones being lanyards and "[[PunctuatedForEmphasis MOTHER!]] [[PrecisionFStrike FUCKING!]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis REPAINTS!]]" of figures. The latter one was so bad that in one video, he refused to [[KillItWithFire burn them]] himself, instead giving them to a friend to (ahem) dispose of them in more creative ways.
287* ''WebVideo/SuperMarioLogan'':
288** NEVER mess with Black Yoshi's ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty'' or ask him to play 2 Player. If you know what's good for you, you won't destroy his Platform/XboxOne, either. And don't even think of pranking him, as if you do, he'll definitely shoot you.
289** Don't eat Franchise/{{Shrek}}'s [[TrademarkFavoriteFood cheesecake]]. You'll be sure to have a bad death, as Toad found out in "Toad's Mistake 3".
290** If you're playing trains with Bowser Junior, don't ever play with WesternAnimation/{{Thomas|AndFriends}}, even if he has more than one, as he always wants to be Thomas. He'll make you play with another train, most commonly The Ugly Red One [[note]]Salty in the ''Thomas & Friends'' series[[/note]]. Also, don't ever say anything positive about ''WesternAnimation/BigHero6'' around him.
291** Bowser hates it when people call him while he's watching ''[[ShowWithinAShow Charleyyy and Friends]]''.
292** One thing that irritates Cody the most is Junior telling him the Sun is a planet. This has gotten so bad that Cody actually shoved Junior down a set of stairs when he said it. Cody also doesn't like not appearing as a playable character in ''Mario'' sports games, especially if the game has room for alternate forms of certain characters (Metal, Baby, Cat, etc.), but not for a Magikoopa, as seen in "Cody's Missing!".
293** Jeffy's obnoxious behavior is a big button for Mario, even more so than that of any of Mario's friends. Mario's also driven to an almost AxCrazy state whenever he sees turtles.
294** Don't ever call Tyrone Calvin [[NWordPrivileges by the N Word]] or by the F-word (the ''other'' F-Word). You'll be sure to suffer AmusingInjuries, as Bowser Junior and Mario both found out in "Bowser Junior's Website/YouTube Channel!", and "Jeffy's Bad Word!", respectively.
295** The bad treatment from Bowser and Junior is a big one for Chef Pee Pee. It got so bad at one point that he ended up quitting. Also, tricking him into believing that a family member died will result in a huge rant from him.
296** Jeffy does not like being called "Bad". Also, giving Jeffy dollars when he loses his teeth will result in a [[ClusterFBomb swearing fit]] from him, as seen in "Jeffy Loses His Teeth!". Jeffy will also fly into a rage at the mere sight of [[StockYuck green beans]].
297* A few characters have at least one in ''Roleplay/SurvivalOfTheFittest''. For example, in v3, Darnell Butler has his protectiveness towards women extend towards being compelled to attack anyone he sees severely mistreating one, and Bobby Jacks becomes uncontrollable when called a murderer, causing a fight at the senior year's bonfire and, eventually, [[spoiler:driving him to murder Tyson Neills]]. Especially notable since this seems to be the only thing that can make [[TheStoic Bobby]] actually snap or get angry at all.
298* The crew of ''Podcast/TalkRadar'' does not appreciate people who call them biased, or ones who imply that they've accepted money for review scores. Many of them went to journalism school and see lying to their readers and listeners one of the worst things they can do.
299* In ''TabletopGame/TechInfantry'', Erich Von Shrakenberg has a bit of a thing about aliens, and about rebels who compromise humanity's unity in the face of the alien threat. And then there's Hex, who alternates between flipping his lid whenever someone calls him "Hex," and flipping his lid whenever someone calls him anything ''but'' "Hex."
300* WebVideo/Th3Birdman has a few, most revolving around ''WebVideo/CinemaSins'':
301** Future Birdman forgetting to bring pretzels.
302** Jeremy dismissing the source material and the late Creator/StanLee's cameos.
303** Jeremy misusing DeusExMachina for BigDamnHeroes moments and stuff similar to that.
304** He views Jeremy's White Knighting as virute singaling rather than genuine beliefs.
305** Jeremy's fake laugh, which got so bad, Birdman asked his future self if that was caused him to become a broken cynic in the video for ''Film/JohnWickChapter3Parabellum''.
306** Slamming iconic scenes, including the portals scene in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' and TheReveal that Darth Vader was Luke's father in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack''.
307** Slamming something Birdman likes. To date:
308*** Future Birdman had to restrain the present one when Jeremy said ''Series/{{Alf}}'' sucked in the video for ''Film/{{Bumblebee}}''.
309*** The video for ''Film/SchoolOfRock'' got 50 sins when Jeremy slammed Music/TheDoors.
310*** The videos for ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'' and ''Film/StarshipTroopers'' each saw Birdman give 100 sins to Jeremy for saying respectively that Creator/KeithDavid was a bad voice actor and Dizzy Flores deserved to die.
311*** The video for ''Film/IronMan1'' got enough sins (199,965) tacked on to make a MythologyGag to the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse's Earth-199999 designation just for Jeremy criticizing Marvel's love for post and mid-credit scenes.
312*** The video for ''Film/Spawn1997'' got ''{{infinite}}'' sins for Jeremy implying that the ''Franchise/JohnWick'' franchise was a bad thing.
313*** In video for ''Film/MortalKombat2021'' saw Birdman give it 150 sins just for calling Scorpion's kunai a "stabby yo-yo".
314* Creator/ThatLongHairedCreepyGuy:
315** Chibi-Cthulu doesn't like ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'' at all. Naturally, a lot of Creepy's videos on the subject feature Chibi ranting.
316** Neither Chibi nor Creepy himself like ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooReturnToZombieIsland'' due to its retcons to the more mystic elements of the original ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooOnZombieIsland'' as well as going back to the usual Scooby-Doo formula after the breaks from it in ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooAndTheCurseOfThe13thGhost''.
317** Both Creepy and Chibi also don't like it when something bad happens to Film/{{Mothra}}. While reviewing ''Film/GodzillaMothraKingGhidorahGiantMonstersAllOutAttack'' with WebVideo/DeckerShado, they both go into RapidFireNo mode at Mothra's defeat and later death. Shortly before that, Chibi outright attacked Decker during the review of ''Film/RebirthOfMothra2'' for Decker mocking Mothra Leo after the Barem defeat Leo.
318** Again with Decker Shado, Creepy, who's bisexual, gave a DeathGlare to the title of the version of ''Film/GameraVsGyaos'' as the version they're reviewed spelt Gyaos as "Gaes" and likewise was disgusted with Kia's PoliticallyIncorrectHero moment by calling Freddy Kureger a homophobic slur in ''Film/FreddyVsJason''.
319* In ''WebVideo/ThereWillBeBrawl'', [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]] gets angry when anyone insinuates that he is/was/will be a plumber.
320** No one puts a mark on [[VideoGame/FZero Captain Falcon]]'s [[VideoGame/KidIcarus angel]]. ''FALCON PUNCH!!''
321--->"There is only one fist that bruises the face of ''my'' angel!" ''*Cue a screaming OhCrap from the two henchmen as Falcon [[KillItWithFire does his thing.]]*''
322* Several mistakes in cooking will set off [[WebVideo/TitlisBusyKitchen Titli Nahaan]], but none is more unforgivable than improper preparation of schwarma.
323* As Mr. Prick found out in ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee'', never make short jokes to [[WebVideo/TheGameHeroes 8-Bit Mickey]]. [[spoiler: You'll find yourself on the business end of a weed whacker.]]
324* [[WebVideo/ToddInTheShadows "EENIE MEENIE MINEY MO LOVER?!?! How stupid do they think I am?!"]]
325** Also, Todd hates Music/{{Chicago}} and its leader Peter Cetera, and "white guy with an acoustic guitar" songs (John Mayer, Music/JasonMraz and Jack Johnson being examples).
326** Justin Bieber (the perpetrator of the above) singing a White-Guy-With-Acoustic-Guitar song reduced him to [[SarcasmFailure stunned silence]], followed by screaming rage.
327* Danny, the WebVideo/TheTourettesGuy, has a fair number of Berserk Buttons. When it comes to Danny...
328** Do not wrinkle his Music/RandyTravis poster, piss the toilet sear, or hide his keys. [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs Or all three.]]
329** Do not talk shit about Total cereal.
330** Do not mess with his tomatoes.
331** Do not talk about his dick without his permission.
332** Do not blare loud music.
333** Danny's father has a big Berserk Button of his own: he will kick your ass if you compare him to mall Santas.
334* ''Ghost'' of Radio/TrueCapitalist Radio has so many of them, ranging from: {{Voice Clip Song}}s, "audio splicing," ''anything'' to do with WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic, playing Christmas music, insulting his family (especially his granny), etc.
335* WebVideo/TVTrash: Chris "Rowdy" Moore (the character, at least) has gotten pissed off at a lot of bad TV. He finally went over the edge during his review of [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy "Road To The Multiverse"]], in which a Disney styled sequence turned into [[spoiler: a stab at Walt Disney's rumored Anti-Semitism, by having Mort BRUTALLY assaulted]]. He goes into the other room to scream, and he comes out with a rant that makes TheReasonYouSuckSpeech he gave to Creator/SethMacFarlane just two episodes later seem MILD by comparison.
336* [[WebVideo/WarningReadersAdvisory Derek the Bard]] has a laundry list of them: Damaged library books; stupid weaknesses; AdaptationDecay; deus ex machina abuse; lazy writing...
337* The Large Beetle from ''WebAnimation/WaterHuman'' takes [[EnergyWeapon rather]] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill poorly]] to being called "little".
338* ''WebVideo/TheWhiskeyVault': Hosts Daniel and Rex repeatedly make clear that while good-natured ball busting among their friends and fans is allowed and even expected, the one thing that neither of them will abide is genuine whiskey snobbery, i.e. actually putting people down for their preferences.
339* Creator/NolanNorth's presence in a game is something that will easily earn the ire of [[WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation Yahtzee]]. He claims to not hate the man himself however, just his voice.
340* Any [[TheAbridgedSeries abridger]] hates being nagged when their next episode will be. No really, they DON'T like it. [[AuthorFilibuster They'll even have the characters deliver the aesop of patience in the abridger's stead if it gets out of hand.]]
341* Website/YouTube "Top Ten" writer peanut3423 (a.k.a. "Creator/TheAutarch of Flame") does not like it when people reference his [[https://youtu.be/jE6sLooXRmI double top 5 countdown]], which he views as his worst countdown to date. So much so, his first episode of "[[Videogame/KidIcarusUprising Hades]] Riffs" is about [[SelfDeprecation that very list]].
342* Website/YouTube microwave guru Kenny Irwin (known also as "dovetastic", "dove" for short) is generally very cordial and accepting of dissenting viewpoints, even thanking people for taking the time to watch his video that clearly disliked it. And if you find his dislike his narration, he won't argue with you since he dislikes his own voice. He also supports other microwave shows. However, there are two ways to push his berserk button. The first one is by claiming that he's copying ''WebVideo/IsItAGoodIdeaToMicrowaveThis'', a show that started almost a year and a half after his did. The second one is to insult his religion. Any comments about destruction of the Qu'ran or hateful comments about Islam in general will also draw his ire. Repeatedly insisting that he's copying the other major microwave show or insulting Islam will result in being permanently blocked. He's stated repeatedly that it's not Jon or his microwave show that he dislikes, it's the fanboys that spam other microwave shows with hateful comments.
343* [[https://youtu.be/NwTsZHGQ6FE You better drink Julian's Hot Kool-Aid]].
344* From the LetsPlay/{{Yogscast}}, as well as the ''WebVideo/YogscastMinecraftSeries'':
345** LetsPlay/LewisBrindley can sometimes go into a rant when he gets annoyed by a certain religious aspect. LetsPlay/SimonLane [[NotSoDifferentRemark calls him out on this]]. Similarly, repeatedly [=RDMing=] someone in ''VideoGame/TroubleInTerroristTown'' or ''VideoGame/GarrysMod VideoGame/{{Murder}}'' [[note]]RDM means "random death match", in which people kill one another for no reason, something seen as undesirable by many fans[[/note]] appears to set him off. After LetsPlay/{{Turpster}} kills him one time too many this way, Lewis resolves to hunt him down and kill him in the next round, regardless as to whether or not either of them are innocent. [[TemptingFate Turps clearly didn't expect Lewis to actually go through with it]], and Lewis threatens to extend the vendetta further.
346** LetsPlay/SimonLane has a PlayedForLaughs variation. Bringing up the Bees in ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' attached to the forestry mod gets him screaming mad in just a few seconds. He blames them for the ''Jaffa Factory'' series getting the hatchet (even though there were more legitimate reasons).
347** After LetsPlay/{{Sjin}} betrays LetsPlay/KimRichards for LetsPlay/{{Sips}} and blows her up, she understandably develops a hatred for [=SipsCo=] and angrily reminds Sjin about it on a frequent basis.
348** LetsPlay/{{Rythian}} is ''really'' tired of being asked when the next episode of ''The Blackrock Chronicles'' will be out.
349** LetsPlay/InTheLittleWood gets very defensive over Lapis Lazuli, and so much as saying anything bad about it is a prime way of getting your butt kicked.
350** Suffice it to say that LetsPlay/{{Turpster}}'s car giving out in the ''Heroes And Generals'' miniseries, plus Lewis, Simon and LetsPlay/DuncanJones prank-calling him and pretending theirs had (to deliberately annoy him), left him fairly hacked off.
351* Website/{{Killerbunnies}} has Jemima's being called a "fatass" considering that she's injured twelve children for doing that.
352* In the youtube series ''WebVideo/PokemonPals'', if you mention Brock's eyes, he get super pissed.
353** When Ash and James are in a fight, James is kicking Ash's ass, until he steals Ash's hat. Then Ash loses it... He essentially become and animal that latches on to James' leg with his teeth.
354* ''Podcast/RandomAssault'': Don't insinuate that Drew likes dubsteb, don't call Kate a man, and don't talk about anime around Alex.
355* ''WebVideo/DontHugMeImScared'':
356** Don't question the existence of time or Tony the Talking Clock will yell at your ears bleed and then [[spoiler:rot you alive.]]
357** Don't [[HatesBeingTouched touch Collin]] or he'll [[spoiler:trap you in an alternate universe where all you can do is open doors over and over agin for eternity.]]
358** In the fourth installment, the ordinarily calm Red Guy rudely tells Collin to "shut up" and then slaps him when Collin deliberately avoids answering his questions.
359* Matt from ''LetsPlay/TheBowlingotterShow'' absolutely ''hates'' first-person platforming and will rapidly start spouting {{Angrish}} when he encounters it.
360* Spoof reporter ''WebVideo/JonathanPie'' gets angry whenever he feels he is being pressured to spin the news. So he's usually angry.
361* A few moments in particular races have sent Matt from ''WebVideo/MysteryScienceTheaterF1'' over the edge. CameraAbuse also tends to make him very irritated.
362* In a Creator/FoilArmsAndHog sketch,''Christmas Party 2012''. Foil receives presents from Arms and Hog, and promptly loses his shit after it's revealed that it’s the symbol from their live act and tickets to their own gig.
363* ''WebVideo/HunterReviews'':
364** Poorly using adult themes in a kid’s movie.
365** Repeated usage of The IdiotBall, {{Idiot Plot}}s, {{Contrived Coincidence}}s, and DiabolusExMachina.
366** '''Do not''' try to takeover Hunter's job, as seen [[https://youtu.be/uZjf6QNUF5g&list=PLfeZwo8v-9r4wXLpBsnFiQtL5L79DqOc8&index=18 here]]
367* '''Never''' say that you hate Mudbray in front of [=CaptainConco=]. Chipflake's mention of them hating Mudbray cued Conco's appearance, leading him to mention Pokémon worse than Mudbray, with one opinion countering another one's opinion.
368** Conco also does not like his hairstyle being stolen.
369* [[https://youtu.be/7aE7ksyq9DY Don't ever call Slient Rob "Penny Gadget"]], one user had learned the hard way after doing this in one of Asalieri's stream.
370* ''WebVideo/OutsideXbox'':
371** The three hosts of the main channel all have their bugbears: Andy flies into a rage at historical inaccuracy, Jane has little tolerance for scientific inaccuracy, and if you don't get the details of cars right Mike will ''end'' you. Andy's tends to get the most play, with jokes like forcing Luke to come up with some explanation of how ''VideoGame/ForHonor'' could be historically accurate while Andy glares at him, or having him get mad enough to take a sick day when Mike thinks [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedOdyssey the Spartan way of war was to kick the s*** out of everything]].
372** In their WebVideo/{{Oxventure}} spinoff series, Andy's character Edvard in the TabletopGame/BladesInTheDark campaign is very, ''very'' bitter about his rivalry with Amadeus Astor, and the mere mention of Astor's name would usually cause Edvard to throw a fit.
373* WebVideo/TBSkyen doesn't like pointless sexualisation in character design, particularly stuff like a ChainmailBikini; he makes it clear that he doesn't object to sexualisation or sexiness ''in concept'', just that if you're going to have a pretty lady in a bikini she should be like that for a ''reason''. Riot Games's trashfire corporate culture also pisses him off a great deal.
374* A couple characters have these in ''Literature/{{Worm}}''.
375** Tattletale's berserk button is insulting her intelligence, to which she typically responds by [[TranquilFury coldly and methodically]] [[BreakThemByTalking verbally eviscerating]] whoever insulted her.
376* Calling Liu Bei the hero eventually becomes this for Cao Cao in ''Fanfic/FarceOfTheThreeKingdoms.'' He doesn't mind so much at first, but when every character keeps insisting on it despite Liu Bei doing nothing heroic and several evil deeds, he gets quite fed up.
377** Eventually, calling Liu Bei the hero becomes this for Cao Cao.
378** Many battles and sieges reach a deadlock until one side finds the opposing general's BerserkButton. These range from childish (mooning) to understandable (telling [[ActionGirl Lady Zhurong]] to make you a sandwich) to bizarre (watching wrestling in the presence of Zhang He.)
379* ''LetsPlay/{{Mahu}}'': In "Frozen Flame", prince Arius is often calm and collected. Hearing others praise Baron Ishizawa though breaks his cool demeanor. This is quite understandable. After all, it was under Ishizawa's command that the revolution took place and Arius' whole family was executed.
380* ''Podcast/WellTheresYourProblem'': All three hosts (particularly Liam) despise transphobia and do not take kindly to [=TERFs=] and misgendering. Liam also hates and disrespects fish, including several fish-adjacent sea creatures like octopi.
381* ''WebVideo/{{Trolled}}'': Don't call Fletty "Fatty" by mistake, or else [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu_RCh1bBdY he'll troll your arse off]].
382* Few things annoy WebVideo/UrinatingTree more than sports teams absolutely loaded with talent that fail to live up to their potential. Not even his own hometown teams are safe from his wrath in this case, as he ended up creating an entire separate video series on the 2018 Pittsburgh Steelers and how their off-field drama and poor coaching completely derailed their season.
383* Steve Dangle will never get over the fact that his Toronto Maple Leafs LOST TO A 42-YEAR-OLD ZAMBONI DRIVER WHO WORKS FOR THEM!!!
384* Halloweenie from ''WebVideo/{{Halloweenie}}'' hates fun-sized candies. In-fact, anything remotely "fun-sized" causes him to fly into a rage.
385* Being a large collection of different personalities, ''WebAnimation/{{hololive}}'' has various buttons that can be pushed.
386** A common one is pointing out someone's [[ACupAngst lack of curves]]. The hardest hit is Rushia, who will often scream back "RUSHIA BOING BOING".
387** Kiryu Coco was fluent in both English and Japanese, and has made it clear that she despises "shitty Japanese" (IE combining words like "gomenasorry" or "yamatekudastop"). Fans of course enjoyed teasing her with it.
388** Calliope Mori does not like it when something inedible is described as "tasty or delicious" (as in a "tasty nap")
389** Kiara wants to make it clear that she is a phoenix, not a chicken. Any reference to her being a chicken (or "Henchou") will be met with a beating or time-out. Similarly, Reine wants people to know that she's a peafowl, not a turkey.
390* In Creator/JoshScorcher's [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic "FOB Equestria"]] reviews, he often gets ranty when the Royal Guard or the Wonderbolts are featured. Mostly because they are basically the shows equivalents to the Army and the Air Force, and they're almost always portrayed as corrupt, incompetent or both. Something that offends his sensibilites as a former US Armed Forces member (Marines).
391* [[Creator/MikeBurnFireAndZachHazard Zach Hazard]] has a lot of niggles when it comes to firearms, but one intense enough to count as this trope is his hatred for the Pancor Jackhammer; a gun that didn't move past the prototype stage, yet gets featured in a disproportionate amount of video games, including [[LetsPlay/MikeBurnFire Zach and Mike's modded playthrough of ''New Vegas'']], as an übercool endgame shotgun. As his dislike of it [[MemeticMutation turned into a minor meme over time]], he [[https://youtu.be/4kk48WADdB0?t=636 ended up all but dropping it]].
