People who say things like "this is why people think anime fans are weird" are anime tourists.
This statement implies that they care more about society's approval than simply enjoying it. This is tourist behaviour.
It should matter less whether non-fans approve of something.
If you can't enjoy something until someone approves of it, you're not actually a fan.
There is also an implicit call for censorship:
Premise 1: This is why they think we're weird
Premise 2 (implied): we don't want to be seen as weird
Conclusion (implied): Therefore we must eradicate/censor this so that people do not think we are weird
which is also more of a reason to consider those people invaders/tourists.

People who call websites apps are stupid
Websites are not apps. If you're calling websites apps, then you are confusing the application used to browse the website with the website itself. They are not the same thing.
If you refer to websites as apps, the you don't know what you're talking about.
Websites are not apps, even though there may be apps whose purpose is to browse them.

People who use terms like "waifu bait" and "heteroslop" are always the most toxic people in the fandom.

‘X-coded’ is basically a softer way of saying: ‘my fan theory is canon’
Instead of admitting that nothing in the work itself supports their claims, people who use such terms insist on treating their claims as facts, spreading misinformation, and attacking anyone who says “no, you’re wrong”.
It’s okay to have fan theories, what’s not okay is refusing to admit that they are just fan theories or, even worse, attacking those who correct you.
Fan theories stop being fan theories and become lies when you insist they're canon and treat them as absolute truths.

Everything is a product of its time
Everything is a product of its time
No one needs your stupid disclaimer.
Works don't lose their value just because they don't agree with what you think should be the "modern standards".
The same thing goes for putting disclaimers about how a work contains "outdated" content.

You can't post in gamingcirclejerk and expect to be taken seriously
If I see that someone posts in that subreddit, I will assume that they are a complete moron until proven otherwise.
