What The Hell, Man?

Dude, that's, like, totally uncool.

What the audience might say when someone acts like a Jerkass or when God hampers the Hero for seemingly no reason. If you want to convey your disgust for the way things played out, you only need four words: What The Hell, Man?

There are many things that characters in fiction can do that lead to us saying this phrase, like the Traitor finally leaving the Good Guys at the worst possible moment (when their abilities could help the Good Guys win), the SOB existing, or the creators playing bad UnTrashes despite knowing how bad they are. Characters who often cause What The Hell moments are the ones the audience will most likely be rooting against and hoping they Just Die Already. Conversely, these characters are the ones most exciting to see on the verge of death, especially if the creators have shown signs of being aware of the audience's reactions to their work in the past.
