Re: If a character is only an asshole by accident due to the writer's douchery...

Your first paragraph is pretty much my approach as well. If a character says or does something in one chapter/episode/whatever that completely flies in the face of previous characterization, makes no sense, and annoys me, I have absolutely no problem saying NOPE and discarding or ignoring that incident. For most things a character does, there is an in-universe explanation -- but sometimes, the only explanation is "bad writing," and trying to force any sort of in-universe logic onto it is just going to warp the rest of the canon and make me disappointed, so I'll chalk it up to writer!fail and move on.
