Sick and tired of people saying "Oui, oui, baguette!" when I mention that I speak French.

It's a well known fact that French people only agree and talk about baguettes all day. /s

*the end of a movie*

"Well you'll have to get through me first!"

"And me!"

"And me!"

Random kid who we've never seen before in the film: "And me!"

Literally everyone: "And me!"

Ahh yes the guy just got a friend, time to kill him (i think the trope is called Fridging) also bonus points if the character has any drop of diversity.

I hate the lesbian stereotypes where they don't seem very girly. Same with the gay stereotypes where they are all feminine. We all know that isn't true. No one looks a certain way because of who they want as a partner.

Absolutely hate the trope when the wife of a nice suburban family makes this absolutely lavish breakfast with every food you can imagine that's probably enough to feed a whole neighbourhood.

And then husband grabs a singular peice of toast and runs out the door because he will be late for work.

That the man and a woman's 'happy ever after' inevitably includes the woman getting pregnant in films and TV shows. It doesn't happen for some of us and others may not want it.

I despise the whole stereotypical mean girl with pink nails that always talk like they’re drunk, it doesn’t contribute anything

LOVE: Enemies-to-Lovers, Best Friends/Work Partners to Lovers, Cocky Femme Fatale whose only place in the plot is to swing in with a quip and a tight leather outfit every so often, and, unfortunately, I am such a simp for a bad boy. Points if he's toxic and triggers my daddy issues.

HATE: Gay Black Best Friend with No Backstory who exists just to hype on the straight, white main character

In most movies, series etc, women are often negatively portrayed. They are often shown as vindictive, dishonest, arrogant, never-admitting-they-are-wrong, entitled jerks whom everyone seems to be able to not hate for some reason.

I also hate the cliché that says all good looking people are perfect and ugly people are evil / short people are weird / fat people are stupid / skinny people are lazy.

I love bad boys who fall for good girls that are super possessive and a bit toxic. I also love the super innocent girl who is best friends with the protective/possessive bad boy but they both are "secretly" in love with each other
