Does anyone remember that stupid extra glurgey "free Kittuns" poem about cats dying in horrible ways and ending up in heaven in their cardboard box?

No, and I really don't want to know. D:

I think it was an essay as opposed to a poem...but yeah, I remember it all too well. Ick.

Anyone else think Thomas Kinkade is an example?

A quick note on the example story about the boy who was born without a body: If at any point during pregnancy there seems to be complications with development (missing the heart, missing lungs, missing a whole fucking lower 3/4 of the body) the mother's body will terminate the pregnancy as it is highly unlikely the child would survive to term (or very long after if it does manage to survive that long). And that's just the biggest problem with the story.

Yes, but the example story started out as a parody of this kind of story. Some people randomly thought that it was serious, and thus the Glurge was cycled anew.

Re: Fundies Say The Darndest Things example Does acceptance of mortality really count as Fridge Horror per se or am I missing something?

I don't know if it's worth noting or whether I'm just being overly argumentative, but Susan stops believing in Narnia (and so presumably Aslan/God) which if we're extrapolating from the whole Christian analogy thing, is probably pretty key to her not going to heaven

Is it really fair to say that all Medieval or Romantic works suffer from this trope? I don't really the reasoning behind that anyway.

I really don't know what this trope supposed to mean? From what I pick up it's stories with Tastes Like Diabetes with some Unfortunate Implications of sort, or is it Anvilicious? Or does just mean happy uplifting stories with some Fridge Horror? What does it mean? Furthermore, it seems like the trope page seems to be used by people as an excuse to complain about and/or make fun of certain works. Am I missing something?
