Plot sensitivity

The inability to, or refusal to consume media after having first hand experience with the scenarios, equipment, tactics etc, depicted on screen, as media depictions are often unrealistic, used improperly, or are exaggerated to the point of cringe inducing.

My buddy Steve can't watch most war movies anymore. Not because of PTSD but because they inevitably set off his plot sensitivity.

Plot Armor

It is when you shoot AP shell that contains 10kg of explosive and it only destroys tracks of a light tank in War Thunder.

"Dude, I hate this game, that HE shell used to concrete bunkers, but he only got his machine gun broken! What a plot armor."

Plot helmet

When a character has plot armor but only on their head. They can get stabbed, shoot, or even burnt but only on their body. Their head does NOT get hurt

"Whoa dude, Walter white from breaking bad totally has a plot helmet. Did you ever see him get hit in his head even once in the series??? i think not"
"Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about"

Pseudo plot-line

When a series of skits or sections are arranged to follow a plot-line.

Person A: Have you seen that rising comedy channel recently?
Person B: Yeah, but his videos are executed differently than they were a few years ago.
Person A: Oh really?
Person B: Back when I first watched them, they followed an actual plot-line. Now the videos only follow a pseudo plot-line.
