I agree with the Left 4 Dead thing. It also really annoys me the way that FUCKING EVERYONE spells his accent out phonetically to a ridiculous degree. Reading his dialogue in fics is agonizing. Also, why is it that most people only phonetically write out Southern accents (and Scottish accents)? If you're going to phonetically write one person's dialogue then you might as well really commit to being an annoying asshole and do it for everyone

DO NOT GET ME STARTED ON THE PHONETIC THING OKAY. JESUS.

That would also be a massive pet peeve of mine in that fandom, and in fandoms in general. Also in actual published books/comics(LOOKING AT YOU MARVEL, STOP IT).

But yeah it's awful and makes reading fic 100x harder for me.

ayrt

omfg Marvel. It's not as bad nowadays (usually) but reading the dialogue of characters like Remy and Rogue was downright painful in the 80s and 90s. I think the very worst example though is the fact that there was a panel of Sam Guthrie shown writing a letter (to his family iirc correctly) and the letter itself was written out phonetically. who the fuck painstakingly writes out their own dialect? it was pretty hysterical (and annoying as hell)

Gambit and Rogue especially were who I was thinking of, it was so bad and I can't believe no one questioned it. I mean I guess it was to obviously show they had accents but before I saw the cartoons I legit did not know what accent Rogue was supposed to have.

Part of me died inside reading this.
