Angst slop

A derogatory term for creative works that use trauma, suffering, or emotional distress purely for shock value without thematic direction, character development, or narrative purpose. Unlike stories where suffering reveals character, themes, or growth, angst slop relies on repeated misery without escalation, contrast, or meaning.

The term is frequently misused by netizens to dismiss any emotionally heavy or tragic story, especially by audiences who struggle with subtext, character-driven narratives, or slow-burn emotional/psychological arcs. Rather than saying “I don’t understand this” or “this isn’t for me,” netizens label things as “angst slop” to invalidate it.

poor-angst

A stage most financially inferior individuals go through. Instead of taking the time to feel better about themselves, they elaborate their sad feelings by expressing their hatred and disgust towards individuals that are indeed flooded in racks, a top floor boss if you would. Some become so brain damaged that they stay poor forever.
Jrug: "Ara's such a drama queen. Why is she so upset?"

Yeezus: "Don't worry about it, she's going through her poor-angst phase. She's broke, remember?"
