A Mary Sue is a character that is often, but not always, a shameless self-insert, usually very poorly developed and with no flaws and stupid powers/abilities. /tg/ hates Mary Sues. Unfortunately, /tg/s definition for Mary Sue is more broad than its definition for [[weeaboo]].
Originally a Mary Sue is a character that is a shameless self-insert, poorly developed, without flaws and stupidly overpowered. /tg/ hates Mary Sues.  
 
Unfortunately, after so many shitstorms and trollthreads, /tg/'s definition of a Mary Sue is not as clear as it used to be, now generally including any poorly developed, flawless and stupidly overpowered character. Using the term in this context easily makes oldfags RAGE.

If you don't think he's a mary sue, you may not be a fa/tg/uy.

Originally a Mary Sue is a character that is a shameless self-insert, poorly developed, without flaws and stupidly overpowered. /tg/ hates Mary Sues.

Unfortunately, after so many shitstorms and trollthreads, /tg/'s definition of a Mary Sue is not as clear as it used to be, now generally including any poorly developed, flawless and stupidly overpowered character. Using the term in this context easily makes oldfags RAGE.
