When a character does a minor or trivial screwup, or is the only person who knows something that everyone else doesn't believe, every other character vehemently turns on them.

It is so frustrating to watch.

I hate sex scenes or nudity.
Literally add nothing to a story.
I usually skip past them.

That's similar to the trope I hate. The one I hate is in a horror film when the husband never believes the wife when she's seeing ghosts/demons or whatever. He usually calls her emotional.

I can't watch creepy shit like that. It weirds me out. Like I'm fine with a mass murderer and graphic gore but ghosts and demons get me

I hate it so much. I know it's supposed to help you identify with the protagonist since the audience sees them as well, but it just makes me want to see something bad happen to the ones who think they're crazy. And they're not even supposed to be antagonists.

The Han Solo interpretation of loveable Rogue, because it no longer feels realistic, and in reality is probably more than a little gross. In the real world, that guy is probably an asshole, and the tone of the fiction just can't see that. Someone made the comparison between Han and Poe (in the TLJ), in which Han is the fantasy, and Poe is the reality, and that really resonated with me.

I mean, Han Solo was seen as an asshole at first.

I always get frustrated by the trope of the straight man when hes getting shat on by life yet everyone around him is doing fine and cant see his struggles.

Like the dad from Beethoven
