A term for the seemingly ubiquitous trend on Tumblr where character’s skin colors tend to be drawn with noticeably different physical characteristics, like being more fat or dark-skinned, than they actually are in canon by Tumblr artists. The reason for this is unknown, but the most common hypothesis is that the artists on Tumblr subconsciously make the characters look more like themselves, such as being overweight, of being the main cause behind this phenomenon. Some of the more famous examples of this trend being franchises that are very popular with Tumblr users like Steven Universe and Harry Potter, due to their character’s being very fast and loose with physical description, making it very easy for Tumblr artists to insert their own ideas of what characters look like, even though Tumblr artists often ignore the very few distinctive physical characteristics given to them in canon.
Alice: Hey Bob, why did this artist make Ronald Weasley really overweight in this fanart, despite him being described as “tall, thin, and gangling” in the book?
Bob: Must be the Tumblr curse.

Get the Tumblr cursemug. When learning a new language, unless your first working sample is "Hello World" you will be cursed and will struggle to use that language for anything useful.
I was learning Ruby on Rails but because I didn't start with a "Hello World" example, I've been struggling with it from Day One.
Bob: "Hey, Jim. I can't seem to understand why my Ruby on Rails project just won't work."
Jim: "Did you start with a basic "Hello World" example to show you understand the basics?"
Bob: "Heck no! Why would I waste my time."
Jim: <smh> "Well, good luck, Jim. You've cursed yourself with The Programmer's Curse.

Get the Heart Cursemug. When a newborn boy is giving a name starting with J, it increases the likelihood that said child will be an absolute asshole/fuck boy.
I heard you thought Jacob was pretty cute. Are you going to talk to him?
I mean yeah he’s cute but he’s kind of a douche. I mean his name starts with a J, It’s a warning. He’s totally got the J Curse.

Get the Original cursemug. There are many theories as to why the Buffalo Bills are so tragically inclined to giving up great opportunities in the twilight of magnificent games or seasons. The one I offer is The Curse of the Juice ("The Juice" being OJ Simpson--Bills running back '69-'77). Great player on a shitty team, destined to spend his golden years in jail is--it's an all too appropriate parallel to a team that can bring it large untill the fourth quarter or fourth horribly super bowel.
Why the fuck can't the Bills win with a lead at the two minute mark?
