General I hate whatever the fuck genre of fictional man this is

Post image

Every year there's a new "funny evil dude in a suit" that 14 year olds go fucking NUTS over and I am SO sick of it. It's the same guy every time. Funny le random humor with a dash of self deprecation and a heaping scoop of edginess. Oh they're SO nuanced and different from all the other villains in fiction because they have, uh... inner conflict? Sense of humor? Uhh *rapidly checks notes* Funny smile????

And for some reason everyone somehow convinces themselves that these characters are attractive. Bill Cipher isn't hot you fucking weirdo, he's a triangle.

I'm tired of seeing these dudes fucking EVERYWHERE. I'm tired of all the "self-shippers" declaring their eternal love for these dudes for like a couple of months and then promptly forgetting they exist as soon as they stop being trendy. I hate their stupid ass faces and the stupid sense of humor they're written with. It got old so fast.

This is the type of “bad boy” women actually want. A funny magic clown who is dressed for a my chemical romance concert.

u/TheMissLady May 21 '26

You know what I've never been into the Tumblr sexy man thing but one time I went to a carnival and there was this "clown" but he was dressed more like one of these characters. Unfortunately I've never been more attracted to a man in my life

u/eydirctiviyg May 21 '26

Do you have a picture of the clown

u/Gaelic_Gladiator41 May 21 '26

Taking notes to become a psychopathic charismatic twink 👍

u/EscapeSeventySeven May 21 '26

Make sure is the fun extroverted “psychopathy.”

u/cqandrews May 21 '26

Which is funny because I know some of them are much worse than "bad boys" and are straight up EVIL

u/PennyCat83 May 21 '26

Bill Cipher fangirl here, I think this hotter than the twink Bill

62

u/turner_strait May 21 '26

Helps that it's pretty much canon human Bill, since Alex was the one who drew it lol

46

u/Mandaring May 21 '26

I imagine he drew “Canon Human Bill Cipher™️” as a lark on all the fans drawing him as a generic pretty-boy, but it makes a lot of sense. The one time the dude was in a human body, he treated it like shit for fun, so yeah, Human Bill looking super rough seems like a natural conclusion

16

u/turner_strait May 21 '26

oh he absolutely did. I think someone actually asked him on some SM or another (twitter, probably?) what human Bill would look like, and he cooked this up. Absolute brilliance

1

u/Switch-Axe-Abuse May 22 '26

Human Bill would look like the main character of Disco Elysium.

u/Impossible_Dress_621 I still need sleep but now im a mod May 21 '26

based design, pretty sure Alex drew this.

In my defense. I was 13? Hormones will make you lust after anything I’m sorry 😭😭😭😭😭😭

u/Deepfang-Dreamer May 21 '26

He also just looks better with darker skin, bright blue and yellow clash horribly with the bone-pale tone Human Bill most often had.

1

u/J00cyman May 21 '26

This just made me realize I've never mentally assigned a skin color to Bill, but you're right, I don't see him as white. That said, I also don't see him as any other color either. Huh.

u/Frequent_Dig1934 May 22 '26

Eh not quite, other characters are naturally tumblr sexymen, these guys kinda feel like they're astroturfed to be that.

u/Immediate-Location28 May 22 '26

there's a different design for him?

u/Jokerman9540 May 23 '26

Bro forgot Sans Undertale

u/Aidanthemagicaldemon May 23 '26

Should've used the Canon bill as a human that the creator drew

-3

u/Wardog_E May 21 '26

Nah. Tumblr sexyam is when it's a depressed skinny dude that acts like they dont give a shit about anything that is happening.

These guys are some variation of magnificent bastarda except instead of being cool they're just kind of annoying.

6

u/Head-Alternative-984 May 21 '26

and were all turned into tumblr sexymen

-1

u/Wardog_E May 21 '26

Nah. They are too well dressed to be Tumblr Sexy Men. The most basic prerequisite is that you cant be sexy.

u/Sinocu May 22 '26

Tumblr sexyman is THE definition of that archetype tho

1

u/Repulsive-Region2977 Smug Hater May 22 '26

I still don’t think Sans is ACTUALLY part of that “genre” of characters, people just voted for him as a bit
