"Death to the Manic Pixie Dream Girl!"

[H-Man]

I miss summaries, but this doesn't stop the title from being funny.

So! We all know what that term means, right? The girl of your dreams who seems to come out of nowhere and exists only to make you feel better.

Turns out the guy who coined the term has apologized for it.

He also offers his own, original definition, and has stated how the term got out of control, and agrees with the critics who want to off the concept.

What do you guys have to say on it?

I wish everyone would stop talking about Manic Pixie Dream Girls! I wish I never made up the phrase Manic Pixie Dream Girls. I'm writing this article begging people to stop using the phrase Manic Pixie Dream Girl.

I felt it apt.
