Gushing

About anything. Somewhere deep inside my mind it pisses me off. Even when people gush about stuff even I like I can't stand it, it always sounds like little girls giggling about some totally hot guy in my head. I absolutely hate it and I have no idea why...

    Do you feel the same way about complaining?
  • DonZabuDonZabu
    As yes, the conflict between gushing and complaining on TV Tropes. A tale as old as, say...the wireless web, or...energy drinks, maybe.

    It pisses me off as well, mostly because they remind you that other people watched it, making a personal experience less personal if people are seeing things differently, or generally adding input on things that you have already heard or ruining it by experiencing it in a method that generally doesn't need to be talked about. "OMG X CHARACTER IS SO HOT I WANT TO HAVE THEIR BABIES"

    Yeah, I feel the same way about complaining too.

    ^Yeah, that's my experience too.
  • NoimportaNoimporta
    Well, sucks to be you, then.

    When it comes to complaining, I can't bear to hear why anyone else doesn't like it, which is why I don't find people who review things to point out EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEIR FLAWS bearable, which is why I quit watching X-Play (they never seem to say anything interesting about good games, but seem to have hundreds of writers to help them describe how horrible a game is), and every online game reviewer ever.

    Gushing, in comparison to that, is more bearable, but only in a place where it's warranted, and not suffocating. Think "Homestuck Thread" vs. "Sugarwiki/Homestuck", or something like that.

    Not so much complaining, but irrational arguments with no solid basis.
  • NoimportaNoimporta
    Well, yes, it annoys me when people start complaining about something in a completely retarded way. Moreso when there are plenty other flaws they could point out, but choose to complain about the ones that don't exist.

    Kind of like a lot of the hype aversion/backlash arguments made in threads in the Anime & Manga forums, right?

    Yeah that tends to get annoying, where they need to announce to everyone that they don't like a popular show and never go into detail enough to explain it. They just drop "I don't like this show and I don't know why anyone else does either" and abandons it.

    It's arguing on the internet in general that gets annoying. Discussions are fun, debates are bearable, arguments clog up pages.
