1	Any entry onto this page is evidence that [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TVTropes is ruining DokEnkephalin's life.]] They warned me it would cause cancer.

4	You've been on TVTropes for too long when you can guess with at least 40% accuracy where a PotHole leads before your cursor even hovers over them.

6	I'm up to 87%. I weep for my immortal soul.
7	----
8	Alright, now. Two things that bug the everliving shit out of me enough to declare jihad:
9
10	Gratuitous spoiler tags: If it happened in the first episode, or the first 1/4 of a movie/game, it's not a spoiler, it's the ''premise''. If it's revealed about a character in their first episode or encounter, it's not a spoiler, especially if it's their ''only'' appearance. If it appears in the trailer or promo shots or OP or NextTimeOn, it's not a spoiler. If it's described so obliquely that only someone who has already seen it would understand, then it's not a spoiler; that is the ideal way to add the entry anyway.
11
12	Abused spoiler tags: Adding spoilers that aren't even an example of the trope it's listed under. Tacking on spoilers to an example that sufficiently illustrates the trope without giving away anything. [[{{Egregious}} And a combination of both]]: Following up an appropriate trope example with a spoiler tangential or completely irrelevant to same trope. And an example that stands in a class by itself: consistently spoiler-tagging a detail that would mean nothing unless it were given significance by waving the '''spoiler''' flag over it.
13
14	IfYouKnowWhatIMean: Heh, heh. Heh, heh. You're so goddamn clever, you couldn't think of one of the hundreds of available SexTropes more specific to PotHole? Over-reliance on this makes you look like a prepubescent cretin who doesn't actually know what ''you'' mean.
15
16	And I'm really not on a crusade to PotHole ArtisticLicense to BlatantLies. I just think it's funny.
