Why This Cliché Sucks

 * 1) It’s basically a carbon copy of the Bully cliché, but female.
 * 2) They’re just there to go up to the main protagonist and bully them for the sake of their characters, serving no purpose other than to pad a scene out.
 * 3) They are more annoying and hateful than hilarious.
 * 4) They don’t have or show any motive or reason to bully the female protagonist, making their vendetta against the main character unjustifiable and unnecessary.
 * 5) What makes their mean-spirited attitude towards the main character more unreasonable is that the main character didn't do anything mean to them, in fact, in some shows like the C-Students pilot and Pixel Pinkie, the main female characters were trying to be nice to them, so that makes the Alpha Bitch's hatred towards the protagonist more pathetic.
 * 6) They get absolutely no character development whatsoever.
 * 7) When these so-called “side antagonists” do serve a purpose, they just cause problems and conflict for the protagonist to get the plot going to the direction that the writer wants it to.
 * 8) Some of them are so chatty and talkative that that you wish they could shut up.
 * 9) They are pretty much Karma Houdini's, meaning that they get no consequences for actions.
 * 10) They often stand out victorious from humiliating their victim protagonist.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Most of them do get comeuppance from the characters.
 * 2) Not all of them are mean-spirited to the point of doing physical abuse.
