Looked at the page, and the only thing that came to my mind is Kill It with Fire. Nothing worth salvaging.

You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Burn it.
Do we have a trope for "work is so bad/confusing it causes physical pain"?
Because that's definitely a trope.
Now, the name is awful, and the page is mostly using that legitimate trope as a way of sneaking in Audience Reaction versions, but if we don't have a page for the In-Universe version, we really should.
EDIT: Suckiness Is Painful. Yep, cut this.

Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickI think this could be used as a humorous aside within and/or redirect to the Suckiness Is Painful article, frankly. It's really just the Audience Reaction equivalent to that trope.
I'll hide your name inside a word and paint your eyes with false perception.Since the option to cut has gotten an overwhelming favor, I'll go and call the crowner.
May the dewicking begin.

Crown Description:
What would be the best way to fix the page?
While cleaning the wicks for the terrible Talent Bomb, I encountered this "wonderful" complaining trope from.the same source. This one is essentially defined as "this movie made me feel a sense of panic", though from the actual usage documented in the example list it is pretty much "mind screw hurts my brain."
Other issues include a horribly non indicative name (major league case of Trope Namer Syndrome), a description focused on who named it and when instead of giving actual meaning, and the clear YMMV nature without an associated YMMV tag.
As a side note, the page currently has 22 wicks and 102 inbounds.
