Something really bad, such as horribly out-of-tune singing or violin playing, bad poetry, a terrible movie, or Puns to traumatize those exposed to it, distract an opponent, punish someone, or even, in extreme cases, weaponized. The horribleness of it can range from hurting ears or eyes to giving nightmares, to blowing up cities. Can take the form of a Brown Note, but there can be other effects than that trope. Sometimes this can be invoked with using the horrible thing as Cool and Unusual Punishment. In Real Life, it's fairly common to at least describe a very bad movie as being "painful to watch", or to say that it "hurts to read" a bad book. The concept of an "eyesore" isn't limited to English either; Japanese has migurushii (見苦��), literally "painful to look at". Can overlap with Anything but That!, Faux Horrific, Comical Overreacting, Dreadful Musician, Even Evil Has Standards (if a villain decides a work would be too horrible to inflict). A Critic Breakdown will often to invoke this regarding the offending piece. Many a Lame Pun Reaction involves retching in pain. Compare/Contrast Awesomeness Is Volatile. |

Channel Awesome: This is kind of the Nostalgia Critic's whole schtick, except when he's reviewing something that's actually good or doing a top-eleven countdown. A lot of the reviewers on his site, in fact. When The Nostalgia Critic reviewed Junior, he saw the baby dream with the greenscreen face of Arnold on the baby, and it made him scream like a girl, and then vomit all over the place. Linkara in Atop the Fourth Wall, driven mad by a bad pun ("Re-Todd") in Countdown to Final Crisis: "ANTI-LIFE JUSTIFIES MY HATE! Anti-life justifies my haaaaaattteee... [breaks down sobbing]" In Atop the Fourth Wall: The Movie, a Cutaway Gag shows the Nostalgia Critic couldn't make it to Linkara's birthday party because he traumatized himself by watching The Garbage Pail Kids Movie again: Angry Joe accuses Sonic Free Riders of "Assault in the First Degree to knowingly inflict bodily harm." Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas was so hard on The Nostalgia Chick that she'd rather go through "seven holocausts" than watch it again. The 4Kids version of the One Piece theme song reduces MarzGurl to angrish and crying. Todd in the Shadows: He writhes in pain at a musical number of Hannah Montana: The Movie. "Break Up" by Mario feat. Gucci Mane and Sean Garrett makes his hair fall out in clumps and his nose bleed. Later he claims he's lucky it didn't give him cancer. Parodied in his review of Rihanna's "S&M", saying he doesn't get BDSM and likes the song even though he thinks it's a very flawed song without any virtues, only to realize he likes the song because he's a masochist. Diamanda Hagan follows the cast of Project Million into the "It's a Small World" ride. She doesn't take it too well. Spoony of The Spoony Experiment has a few videos listed under the title of "Experience BIJ", Bij being Klingon for "punishment"note The term and the opening credits come from the Star Trek: The Next Generation — A Klingon Challenge VCR board game; the videos themselves largely consist of whatever Spoony has seen on the internet which is horribly annoying, and the goal is to see how long you can watch the videos without pausing, going to another window, or muting it. Few can make it. The Cinema Snob: He experienced this in the aftermath of watching Video Violence — about three years later, as he was reviewing its sequel, he had just recovered from the debilitating effects. Gross Out manages not to set him off with its Vulgar Humor antics... but the lead actress's horrible performance makes him vomit. Also, Nukie. The entire episode. The only one where Snob seems in more pain is To Catch a Yeti. Oancitizen of Brows Held High shouts out "OW!" after The Reveal in Zardoz that Zed's religion is based on The Wizard of Oz. JesuOtaku once stated that attempting to watch Ikki Tousen left him "in physical pain". |

Bleak Expectations: When Pip Bin winds up in Hell, Mr. Benevolent tortures him by tying him up, then putting a cat on his lap so it will claw him incessantly, summoning a wren to peck out his spleen, tying his belt too tight, and placing in Pip's view a TV showing Holby City. Pip Bin considers this an even worse fate than all three of the other tortures combined. A few episodes later, Mr. Benevolent abducts Pip's wife Ripely, and makes her read celebrity autobiographies. She laments the simplistic "yet clearly ghostwritten" prose, and worse, the terrible puns every title has. |

Hobgoblins was so painful that Pearl frequently used it as her go-to threat, against the hosts or her henchmen — just mentioning "the movie" made Bobo scream. She kept it in the Ark of the Covenant to try to mitigate its power. When she finally breaks it out on the hosts, the 'bots start trying to flee during the opening credits, then made cardboard cutouts of themselves to try to sneak away. | |

The yaks used to force criminals to listen to it as punishment, though they discontinued the practice centuries ago. In the present day, after some PVE members decide to cause trouble around the borders of Yakyakistan, Prince Rutherford vows to bring this punishment back and use it on any PVE members who show their faces around his country again. | |

Borderlands 2: The sidequest "Out of Body Experience" has you finding an A.I. core from a Hyperion robot and trying to find it a new body. However, every time you put it in a new body, it tries to kill you. Even when you install it in the radio in Moxxi's bar in Sanctuary, it tries to torment the patrons into suicidal despair with terrible country music. Another sidequest has you helping Scooter compose a love poem. The result (with lines like "You are a diamond in the rough / or a flower surrounded by shrapnel and stuff") is so awful the intended recipient calmly walks back into her house and blows her brains out. |

HFIL introduces us to the Ginyu Force's newest dance, the twerkarena - a hybrid of the macarena and twerking. Just seeing it is enough for Cell to want to get out of there, but that's not the worst part. In life, Frieza hired these guys as his secret police, meaning he knew of their quirks, and yet here he calls their practice sessions "terrifying" before shuddering at the thought, as if they became even kookier in death. | |

The villains of the Paranoia adventure Clones in Space are aliens with a finely developed aesthetic sense. Their torturers primarily make use of human pop culture (country music, the Three Stooges) to extract confessions. The Troubleshooters are unaffected, while the torturers (and Game Master) cover their ears and writhe in agony. | |

Mortadelo y Filemón: Crappy music and films are used as a method of torture. The title characters are tortured by their boss with an LP of Spanish blockbuster songs (apparently repeated ad infinitum). They are driven mad, and other characters talk about the cruelty. Also repeated speeches by a politician. In later albums these are often replaced with whatever sensationalist TV show or politician speech Ibáñez seems to have a problem with at the moment. |

Kitboga is a scambaiter popular on Twitch and YouTube. After about an hour and twenty minutes into "Buying Hot Dogs Instead of Gift Cards (For Scammers)," Kitboga can't help but note that the scammers still having managed to pretend to send any money to his bank account and can't figure out the screen-sharing software they're using and are trying to install another. He points out that while he's trying to waste their time, the whole thing is just getting a bit ridiculous that they're so incompetent they're wasting their own time. In "When Scammer Think You're a Bitcoin Millionaire," Kitboga tricks a group of refund scammers into believing that his character has just over a million dollars in Bitcoin. After leaving them on this, he ends the call for the day. When they call back the next day, he's astonished to the point of near speechlessness and having to compose himself of the fact that instead of coming up with anything even remotely creative, they just try to run the standard refund scam, and rather badly too. The fact that he ends up spending nearly 7 hours total on the phone with them is a testament to their sheer persistence more than anything else, as he tries to simply end things with them several times due to not wanting to waste time on ineffective scammers. |

One of the books you can study in Persona 4 is a "ploddingly-written romantic comedy about a girl on her first day of school in a new town. Vampires are involved.". The narration explicitly says "the content of this book was almost physically painful for you to read". It boosts your Diligence stat, presumably for pressing through and finishing the whole thing despite how bad it is. | |

The Two Best Friends Play enjoy using this trope. Pat in particular has 'died' several times over the course of playthroughs of terrible games, such as during the Broken Bond LP (Woolie brought him back with a ressurection jutsu) and in the Omikron playthrough he simply continued talking from beyond the grave. | |

In Sonic Heroes, Team Chaotix' Team Blast, "Chaotix Recital", lives up to its name by having Espio, Charmy and Vector perform music extremely badly. They don't even seem to be coordinated with each other; Espio plays a shamisen and sings an edgy song about the ninja's creed, Charmy bangs on a drum and sings an upbeat song about himself, and Vector takes lead vocals and yells into the microphone, and not in a Rock & Roll kind of way, instead just shouting and laughing like a goofball. Like all other Team Blasts, this destroys all the enemies in the surrounding area, purely from the awfulness (and possibly the volume) of the recital. | |

Red Dwarf: When imprisoned in season 8, Lister and Rimmer find that the inmates of Red Dwarf's secret prison are forced to watch god-awful B-movies (such as Attack of the Giant, Savage, Completely Invisible Aliens, which openly admits in the trailer that it's "horrible"). Rimmer speculates that it's a deliberate effort on the staff's part to sap their morale. | |

The Mysterious Mr. Enter has strongly reconsidered using the words "painful to watch" after his review of an episode of The Problem Solverz; that is, in no way, implying that his Animated Atrocities subjects wouldn't qualify for the phrase in the metaphorical sense, but the aforementioned episode's bright and constantly-shifting coloring made the episode physically painful for him to watch, even worsening his myopia. | |

PatTheNESPunk: In the review of Action 52, he starts this trope and expanded on it more and more as the review went on. He started out self-confident, trying to find a decent game in the compilation. As the review went on, he started praying to find a decent game. At the very end of the review you can see him literally faint. The antagonist in Pat the NES Punk's M82 madness hoped that Pat would achieve the same effect when he would review "awful" games on his M82. Sadly, most of those so called "awful" games turned out not to be as awful as the antagonist thought they were, with Pat even saying that those games weren't even bad, which only made the antagonist more angry. |

The Cinema Snob: He experienced this in the aftermath of watching Video Violence — about three years later, as he was reviewing its sequel, he had just recovered from the debilitating effects. Gross Out manages not to set him off with its Vulgar Humor antics... but the lead actress's horrible performance makes him vomit. Also, Nukie. The entire episode. The only one where Snob seems in more pain is To Catch a Yeti. |

Subverted in Funny Farm. Liz indeed starts crying when she reads Andy's manuscript and sees just how bad it is, but it's not so much because his book sucks as it is her realizing that it will never sell to a publisher, so all the crap they've put up with since moving to Redbud (so that Andy could focus on his new career as a novelist) has been for nothing. | |

The "plot" of Mystery Science Theater 3000 involves a Mad Scientist attempting to find a movie so bad it could be weaponized. And while they haven't yet succeeded, they've come close a few times: Monster a-Go Go and The Castle of Fu Manchu are two top candidates for the worst movie ever featured on the show, on a technical level. The hosts never really went that nuts, but quite a few viewers did. Manos: The Hands of Fate was so god-awful that Dr. Forrester and Frank actually apologized to Joel for making him watch it. Invasion of the Neptune Men was such an ordeal that Mike and the 'bots had to take turns stepping out of the theater for a few moments. It might have done the job, had it not been for a surprise visit from Krankor cheering everyone up. Hobgoblins was so painful that Pearl frequently used it as her go-to threat, against the hosts or her henchmen — just mentioning "the movie" made Bobo scream. She kept it in the Ark of the Covenant to try to mitigate its power. When she finally breaks it out on the hosts, the 'bots start trying to flee during the opening credits, then made cardboard cutouts of themselves to try to sneak away. Lost Continent's "rock climbing" segment was so dull and monotonous that just mentioning it in later episodes would make the 'bots shudder. Hercules Against the Moon Men's sandstorm sequence was also painfully boring. The Mads knew exactly what they were doing and presaged it with the phrase, "Deep huuurrrting!!" Star Force: Fugitive Alien II was so terrible that Tom Servo's head exploded less than thirty minutes in. Red Zone Cuba came the closest to actually inflicting mental harm on Mike and the 'bots — but it was equally as effective on the Mads themselves. |

At one point in Futurama, Bender auditions for a part on the Show Within a Show when a role opens up. His lousy "Spanish accent" prompts this response from Calculon (who is a robot): Calculon's acting, meanwhile, is so bad that when he does a one-bot show, it hospitalizes twelve people. Nine of them were expected to recover. And the Robot Devil (who gave Calculon his acting "talent" in the first place) regards it as worse than the torments he inflicts on the damned. |

The Angry Video Game Nerd: During his first attempt to review Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde for the NES, the Nerd spoke about it being so bad that it traumatized him, and had a hard time bringing himself to playing it. Later, he would go to review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III, and said this about the ending: The AVGN Movie and episodes leading up to it established his phobia of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. He couldn't even stand to look at the cartridge, and vomited after watching a sequel of it for a few seconds. |

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Vogon poetry, which is used in-universe as a torture device, Vogons having no illusions about the reputation of their poetry, and the poetry of the Azgoths of Kria, which has literally killed several listeners. There's a poet on Earth, Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings, who's worse than both of them, but we are mercifully spared its effects (the poet named after Paul Neil Milne Jennings, a friend of Douglas Adams). | |

In Disco Elysium, one of the ways you can potentially die is by reading "Sixteen Days in Coldest April", a book of depressing, wordy, incredibly worthy literature that deals not only morale damage, but health damage over and over as you read it. (At high levels, your Pain Threshold skill, who encourages you into suicidal masochism, will love it and beg for more.) | |

Happens twice in Danny Phantom: In "Fanning the Flames", Danny weaponizes Tucker's horrible Hollywood Tone-Deaf singing to break Ember's Magic Music trance on everyone watching her televised concert. Later, in "Girls' Night Out", Jazz disguises herself as one of Ember's backup singers, but her singing's almost as bad as Tucker's and she ends up getting trash thrown at her. |

An episode of SpongeBob SquarePants revolves around Patrick's self-composed song, which is so awful that it actually kills the band that records it. Also, there's Squidward's clarinet skills. Squidward's dancing is unbearable to watch that it hurts people's eyes, and makes some throw up. His art doesn't fare much better, seeing how it literally burns people's heads off. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Pinkie Pie's "You Gotta Share, You Gotta Care" song. It is so awful that two warring tribes only strengthen their resolve to go to war after she performs it once. The second performance, when the tribes are RIGHT on the precipice of a truce immediately before commencing battle, makes the chief of one tribe so enraged that he leads his people into battle simply because the song pissed him off so much. In "Maud Pie", Pinkie's sister Maud comes to visit, and the rest of Pinkie's friends find her stoic, anti-social, and only interested in rocks. At one point, Twilight asks Maud about her poetry and Maud provides a sample. Twilight's reaction shows how bad this poetry is, and it's only the tip of the iceberg. |

Todd in the Shadows: He writhes in pain at a musical number of Hannah Montana: The Movie. "Break Up" by Mario feat. Gucci Mane and Sean Garrett makes his hair fall out in clumps and his nose bleed. Later he claims he's lucky it didn't give him cancer. Parodied in his review of Rihanna's "S&M", saying he doesn't get BDSM and likes the song even though he thinks it's a very flawed song without any virtues, only to realize he likes the song because he's a masochist. |

Spoony of The Spoony Experiment has a few videos listed under the title of "Experience BIJ", Bij being Klingon for "punishment"note The term and the opening credits come from the Star Trek: The Next Generation — A Klingon Challenge VCR board game; the videos themselves largely consist of whatever Spoony has seen on the internet which is horribly annoying, and the goal is to see how long you can watch the videos without pausing, going to another window, or muting it. Few can make it. | |

South Park: In one episode', the Ewok-filled special edition of Raiders of the Lost Ark was so horrible it had the same effect as the ark in the actual movie, killing George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Francis Ford Coppola. Spielberg and Lucas came back in a later episode, though. "I Should Have Never Gone Ziplining": The boys go on a camping trip that is apparently so painfully dull that it killed Kenny (as in, Kenny literally dies of boredom). Russell Crowe's singing in one episode is so bad that Tugger shoots himself to avoid having to listen to it any longer. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: "Fool for Love". In one of Spike's flashbacks, an aristocrat says of his poetry, "I would rather have a railway spike rammed through my skull than listen to that drivel." Considering that when Spike was first introduced, Giles had mentioned that he was infamous for impaling people with railway spikes, he may well have been Tempting Fate. An earlier episode showed Giles grimacing his way through Talent Show auditions, particularly Cordelia's rendition of 'The Greatest Love of All.' |

A story arc in Kamen Rider Double features a street musician whose singing (a rock-rap fusion he calls "spilk") is so horrible it kills birds in mid-flight and causes an earthquake. The conflict comes from his winning an American Idol-style TV show despite his competition including actually competent singers (as well as members of AKB48 in Real Life), who hire the detective protagonist because they're sure the guy's cheating. | |
