Graphics Troll

A troll who criticizes/mocks the dated graphics of older video games, regardless of whether the gameplay has stood the test of time.

They seem to be oblivious of the fact that due to the rapid emergence of new technology, the cutting edge eye-candy they're jacking off over now will be dated and discarded once the "next big thing" hits the market.

They're also guilty of the greater crime of championing visuals over gameplay - a stance which is killing the integrity of the video game industry.

They can typically be found in Youtube comments sections, posting garbage on gameplay videos of titles 5 - 10+ years old.
Graphics Troll:

"Shogun Total War? Why the hell did IGN give this POS game an 8.5!? The characters are 2D! WTF!??

stat graphic curse

A curse in sports where a small box of information known as a stat graphic appears on your TV explaining a current streak of some sort. After the stat graphic is no longer on your TV, the streak is snapped.
A stat graphic reads:

Bruins are the only team not to allow a power play goal in the playoffs. Two minutes later, the Bruins allow a power play goal in the playoffs.

If you are a Bruins fan, you have just fallen victim to the stat graphic curse.
