WARNING (PLEASE READ THIS, BUTCHERCUP SHIPPERS):
This screenshot de-motivational poster is heavily Anti-Butchercup. If you like this pairing, either avert your eyes and do not read it or swallow your bias and feel free to read on while keeping an open mind. Once again, if you do not want to see me roasting or crapping on your beloved pair, I highly suggest you do not read this at all and/or take what I say with a grain of salt, as these are my opinions.
ANTI-BUTCHERCUP FANS AND ANTI-BUTCHERCUP SHIPPERS
Boy, this is going to be so much fun giving the Greens as a couple the roasting, toasting, and knocking down they deserve because of how much Butchercup grinds my gears without respite. With that said, let us revel in the Butchercup-roasting, as I list down my reasons as to why I abhor the Greens as a couple.
Butchercup really had it coming, didn’t they? These two green-clad hotheads had no chance of escaping from the boundless wrath I have against them as a couple. Though my ire against Butch and Buttercup as a couple is reasonable enough for me to say that they are truly the textbook example of being in a Karmic relationship. In spite of how badly Butchercup’s relationship is going to end up, at least I can take comfort in the fact that Butch and Buttercup can still be great friends who can have a laugh, kick loads of butt, and have a sibling-like bond with Butch functioning as the big, strong muscle older brother to Buttercup’s rambunctious, outspoken younger sister. Other than that, that is the only positive aspect I can spot with Butchercup. The rest will all crumble tossed and torn.
Before I eviscerate Butchercup’s sham of a relationship, I have a confession to make. I know I am going to reiterate this but I was a straight-up color coded couple shipper when I was a lot younger, even though I sort of knew in the back of my mind that Butch and Buttercup would not end up having a relationship that spells happily ever after. At least now, I can take comfort in the fact that I am proud to be Anti-Butchercup and there is no one that will take me down for having these sentiments against these hotheaded green-clad super-humans.
With that said, let the real Butchercup evisceration begin, ladies and gentlemen, as I expound on why Butch’s and Buttercup’s relationship will be forever doomed to fail miserably.
1. Butch and Buttercup are infamous for being extremely stubborn, loud, selfish, and over-competitive.
We now delve into my first reason for loathing Butchercup with a passion. It all has to do with the Greens’ signature stubbornness, loudness, and over-competitiveness. On most occasions, having these two insist who is truly right is akin to seeing both Butch and Buttercup dig quagmires so deep that they cannot escape the doldrums they have gotten themselves into. All of these hot and heavy traits Butch and Buttercup bear will end up leading to arguments, squabbling, grumbling, whining, and yelling galore, thus leading the Greens into a relationship rife with unmitigated animosity. As if this is not bad enough, all of these traits and activities would end up making the Greens become selfish and greedy for the otherwise pettiest, most puerile, and most illogical of causes.
2. Butch and Buttercup run the risk of being doomed to a life of addiction and over-dependency.
Knowing how much they would love to have their fix of giving their foes their signature knuckle sandwiches on more than one occasion, it becomes clear that this physical activity gives them thrill, almost akin to being high on drugs. Butch may be proof-positive of ending up in that route but Buttercup does not seem to be too far behind. With their addiction to violence, anger, and aggression comes the putrid effect of a broken relationship, unfulfilled relationship goals, relentless animosity, and several moments of interpersonal abuse not only against each other but also their families. If that is not bad enough, they would even become way too dependent on their bloodlust to the point of giving into despair and destruction.
3. Butch and Buttercup would be doomed to go through repetitive patterns over and over again.
The Reds may have it bad but the Greens have it much worse! All of their arguments, bickering, and squabbling will all add up to a cruelly vicious cycle they can never escape from. Their moments of thrill may show excitement but when it is gone and dead, there will be nothing to salvage anything they get themselves into. Therefore, their initially thrilling sensation will end up becoming nothing more than cruel monotony to the point of no return.
4. Butch and Buttercup push each others’ buttons.
This is rather self-explanatory, as expected from these two green-clad hotheaded toughies. What might start off as fun and games will turn into annoyance, animosity, and eventual rage, which is one of Butchercup’s most frightening propositions.
5. Butch and Buttercup bring each others’ dark sides.
The Greens certainly have no problem letting their bad sides out. However, this all comes at a price. Once their dark sides are brought out, they will never know anything that is either fulfilling or genuine. This would even lead them to try to kill each other not only on the outside but also on the inside.
6. Butch and Buttercup are completely irrational, thus bearing the impression that even though they seem to be destined for each other because of their similarities, they run the risk of not ending up in a long-lasting relationship.
This is what makes me loathe Butchercup for everything that it is and makes me fully realize how toxic, unfulfilling, and just plain awful the Greens’ relationship would be if they were to end up together. Given how hot and heavy, over-competitive, aggressive, and loud Butch and Buttercup are, they would be the clear example of being a couple of irrational knuckleheads who will keep stumbling and stumbling without learning anything from their doldrums or circumstances. This also leads me to pose the following questions to you, dear readers. Would you like to end up in a relationship where you and your partner are stubbornly shouting at each other without coming to a resolve? Would you and your life partner want to find yourself condemned to a life of animosity, violence, and addiction? Would you think that a prospect of having short-term thrills are worthwhile having? Why should Butch and Buttercup find themselves in these situations? All it all, to say that Butch and Buttercup deserve better is a mere understatement. They need life partners who will not only straighten them up but can also guarantee them a stress-free, peaceful, and loving relationship and I bet you all know who I pair these green hotheads with.
In conclusion, I am more than glad to not only keep Butch and Buttercup as friends but also vent out my ill feelings for this sham of a couple. It felt really cathartic to not only acknowledge how my ill feelings towards Butchercup can be directed to this de-motivational poster and my reasonings for keeping the Greens at a strictly platonic relationship but also backing it up with how relationship dynamics work, especially the Karmic relationships.
If there is one person I want to thank for the inspiration for me to come up with this Anti-Butchercup de-motivational poster, it would have to be RivaAnime, as she has given me so much inspiration, grit, and dedication to come up with my own reasons as to why I do not support certain pairings such as this and Blossick among many other things.
So, to wrap this all up, I am Anti-Butchercup and Anti-Blossick and I am proud to make both the Greens and the Reds as my BroTPs at best and my ultimate NoTPs at worst.
Well, I hope you all enjoyed this Anti-Butchercup de-motivational and I will see you all in the next submission. Take care, everybody.
