YMMV / Wattpad

  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: The website is rather popular in the Philippines, to the point that theres an entire publishing house (Pop Fiction) dedicated to publishing novel versions of popular stories.
  • Memetic Mutation:
    • The phrase "Wattpad story" to describe either formulaic Young Adult novels or absurd plotted teen fiction is all over the internet.
      • "Getting Sold to One Direction" is a more specific variation of this, referencing both a common plot used by writers (main character gets sold to someone and falls in love with them) and the large amount of 1D-based stories written during the band's heyday.
    • The beginning of Wattpad books with the protagonist waking up and looking in the mirror is frequently parodied.
    • The phrase "Wattpad Bad Boy" has become a go to shorthand for any dark and brooding male character, typically with anger issues and an appropriately tragic Freudian Excuse for their behaviour.
