Reader Versus Author Torturing Characters
Me, as a reader: STOP HURTING THE CHARACTERS HOW DARE YOU Me, as an author: look at this poor glow stick Character: I'm not a glow sti- Author me: *snaps the character, multiple times* look at him shine
A fictional author is shown jokingly breaking a character like a glow stick after condemning stories that hurt characters. The punchline is the hypocritical contrast between a reader's sympathy and an author's enjoyment of torturing their own characters. People share it as a reaction to writing painful, dramatic, or emotionally devastating fiction.
