{{quote| ''[[The Land Before Time]]'' is notable (and was quite controversial at the time) for being the first major franchise to feature a cast comprised of five different dinosaur species: Littlefoot, an Apatosaurus; Cera, a Triceratops; Ducky, a Saurolophus; Petrie, a Pteradon; and Spike, a Stegosaurus. In fact, even though the films consistently establish "Longnecks" as the most important characters, and even despite the embarrassingly stereotypical speech patterns and muteness of Petrie and Spike, respectively, credit really must be given for the portrayal of the different species existing in relative equality and harmony. Complaints continue to issue forth, however, from various "Three-Horn" advocacy groups, who insist that Triceratops are not the loud-mouthed, opinionated trouble-makers portrayed in the films, and that they do not disagree with everything everybody says. }} |

Revision as of 10:37, 25 January 2014
See also TV Tropes Made of Win Archive.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Since anyone can edit this wiki, a lot of the the Funny Moments listed here may have been removed or changed (especially if they would technically be considered Natter). Please keep that in mind while reading and/or editing this page.
Pages In General
- The entirety of the Crowning Moment of Funny page, obviously (admit it, you burst out laughing at least once while reading this page).
- As well as the Narm page.
- Some of Narm Charm.
- The TV Tropes Ruined Your Life page and its page image.
- Name a single page on TV Tropes that doesn't have some element of humor.
- Tear Jerker or Nightmare Fuel, I'd wager.
- Those probably have their moments, too.
- Namely, in the case of Nightmare Fuel, when someone has left an entry with a link attached that says something as ominously simple as "This." Bonus points if there are reactions posted underneath them; they inevitably go along the lines of, "WHY did I click that"? followed by any manner of curse words.
- Name a single page on TV Tropes that doesn't have some element of humor.
- Most, if not all, of the Crowning Moment of Indifference page. It may have been rediculously indifferent when it happened, but when read most of it very funny.
- A good amount of Memetic Mutation.
- Followed by a heaping helping of What an Idiot!.
- Looks like someone's *Sunglasses* playing the fool. YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
- Followed by a heaping helping of What an Idiot!.
"What did he expect to find in a box marked 'TALBOT'? Immortality?" |
- The Nightmare Fuel Vanity Plate page is ungodly funny.
- The Large Ham page.
- The Samuel L Jackson page.
- Statler and Waldorf. Nuff said.
- The Memetic Molester and Memetic Sex God pages.
- The Brian Blessed page.
- I Read That As...
- Especially this:
Bad Guy Bar -> Bad Gay Bar (There's a better one down the street. Not That There's Anything Wrong With That.) |
- This wiki's page on Zardoz. But then, there's so much to work with. The penis is evil!
- what about the gun? is that good?
- This Is Your Premise On Drugs. Before the examples were deleted, that entire page was a CMOF. On laughing gas-laced Mai Tais. With a Viagra chaser.
- The fact that this trope exists is probably funny enough on it's own.
- Chekov's Gun. Not too terribly important... yet?
- Some of the Flat What entires are pretty hilarious.
- This Is Sparta. The whole page.
- Who knew Serious Business could be so hilarious?
- Off-Model is kinda cool.
- The My Immortal page.
- The My Immortal drinking game, especially the scoreboard. "Ran out of WATER?!?!!
- The My Immortal quotes page. Reading all of fictiondom's reactions to this atrocity is paralytically funny.
- ...which has since been ruined by some idiot claiming that it's not necessary, completely missing the point of this trope. If you want to see the masterpiece in question, it has thankfully been preserved on the discussion page until such time until it can be restored to its proper condition.
- Oh, Twilight, you never fail to amuse. The Twilight page is one big, fat Crowning Moment of Funny, largely due to the way many of the examples are worded. Also, here's a little something from the Possession Sue page:
Nikki Reed (Rosalie Hale): Knock it off, dad. So, Kristen, there must be something really special about you for Robert to take such a liking to you and risk the lives of his entire family. Tell us about yourself. |
- The Kill It With Fire page.
- Most of the entries on Anime Hair (especially Flamboyant Gay chef Jean Armstrong's "tight ass curls").
- The entirety of the Standard Female Grab Area page, especially the picture.
- The So Bad It's Good page, especially the Fanfic section. Just reading the descriptions from Tropers trying to make sense of such incoherent writing is hilarious.
- The Drinking Game page.
- The whole Misaimed Marketing page is pure comedy gold.
- "British Frozen Rocks With Penguins and Landmines. Alt titles: The Falkland Islands."
- Scunthorpe Problem. That is all.
Thingy Van Happyperson? L. O. L. |
- Running through all the Laconic pages for "You Fail X Forever" in a row is massively entertaining.
- Please, do enjoy Blind Idiot Translation and Translation Train Wreck.
- The Too Dumb to Live page.
- Much of Anatomically-Impossible Sex.
- The entire The Ugly Barnacle page.
- The Gag Penis page.
- The Stupid Sexy Flanders page.
- Scroll down Absurdity Ascendant. Go on, the link's right there. Were you expecting the hat?
- From the top of the Costume Porn page:
Nynaeve: I'm wearing a green silk dress with slashes of white with snowy white lace in a floral pattern. It has the faces of cherubs sewn into the sides, and the picture of deer running gracefully through a wooded stream in the skirt. It shows generous cleavage. |
- The WTH Casting Agency pages.
- The Freudian Slippery Slope page.
- The trope named What the Fu Are You Doing?. IT'S THE TITLE.
- The redirect No Shit Sherlock.
- The I Banged Your Mom page.
- And There Was Much Rejoicing.
- The Cake Is a Lie has many funny moments.
- The Off-Model page.
- The Memetic Mutation page for The Simpsons.
- All Red Entry is truly a masterpiece.
- Tropes That Will Never Happen is hilarious. Simply hilarious.
- Your Mom.
- From the Alton Towers page:
Rita, Queen of Speed: A hydraulic-launched rollercoaster. Very fast. |
- From the Vampires Are Sex Gods page:
->...And the computer is like "Do I have to spell it out for you? A V.A.M.P.I.R.E.!" —Chester A. Bum, review of Twilight
|
- It Makes Sense in Context doesn't have trope examples, but it has the quote section, which can be fun.
- Naughty Tentacles. (In Big Font: We do not want a page on this topic.)
- Textbook Humor is definitely one of TV Tropes's hidden gems. (It has to be hidden; I saw an Understatement sinkhole on it.)

- The picture on the Slash Fic page.
- The caption under the picture of a rooster on the Biggus Dickus page:

- There isn't one. It's good old fashioned vandalism.
- From the caption under the picture on the Tainted Veins page:
Who'd have thought putting a nuclear reactor in your chest might have harmful side effects? |
- The page image for Fandom Rivalry. Makes Sense in Context (or just scroll over it).

- The caption for the picture on the Corpse Land page.
- The image and caption on the Nightmare Fuel Video Games page.
- The image on Epic Fail.
- The image for the Action games subpage under That One Boss.

- The caption under the picture on the Flying Spaghetti Monster page:
Needs MOAR sauce. |

Could you... maybe... get a haircut? Please? |
- The picture on the If It's You It's Okay page.
- The picture on the Jail Bait Wait page.
- The page image on Parental Favoritism. Maybe it's just because baby birds have this perpetual SERIOUS/frowning expression, but it's made a lot of tropers laugh. Even though it can make you feel really bad for the little bird.

I would appreciate your continued attention on the plot. Hello? The plot. |

- The picture of Woody on the Memetic Molester page.
- The picture and caption on Special Effects Failure.
- The picture on the Grievous Bottley Harm page.

- The image for Corpsing. Your face will be exactly the same as his.
- Body Horror is horrifying. However, the caption under the picture on the main page is funny. "His Saturday nights just got incredibly awkward."
- Before the Superman the Animated Series Nightmare Fuel page was taken down, there was actually a very, very creepy image of a man smiling... But the caption was the ":D" emoticon, removing almost any horror that was obtained from it.
Trope/Work Descriptions and Stingers
- This part of the beginning of the Power Rangers Dino Thunder Page.
Describe Power Rangers Dino Thunder here. |
- Another one from this wiki: the last line of "Anyone Can Die". It's not funny until you check the Pot Holes.
But are these for-real deaths? Or is there something wonderful waiting for us after life? |
- The last line of Evil Lawyer Joke. Also a perfectly executed Take That.
- Please tell me that you included "Take that" intentionally, after the lawyer crack. It's a CMoF even if you just follow the Take That Pothole and look at the page image.
- The summary for Jews Love to Argue.
- The condensed profile from the Torture Technician page: "If he's a fat, giggling, whip-toting, gay Nazi, he's probably one of these."
- The description of Shaggy and Scooby Doo Get A Clue is HILARIOUS.
Shaggy and Scooby Doo, the Lovable Coward / Big Eater duo from the Scooby Doo franchise branch, out in their own show, where Shaggy inherits millions of dollars and a mansion from his missing Uncle Albert, an inventor. However, Uncle Albert's inventions are being pursued by the sinister Dr. Phineas Phibes and his henchmen. Fortunately, Shaggy and Scooby can thwart their evil plans thanks to special Scooby Snacks that give Scooby-Doo temporary superpowers... Wait, where are you going? Come Back, we weren't finished yet! The villain pilots a submarine laboratory! |
- The last Pothole (which was deleted) on this section of the page Nipple-and-Dimed:
It's the progenitor of numerous tropes, from Censor Steam to Godiva Hair, to Modesty Bedsheet, to Modesty Towel, to Scenery Censor, to Naked in Mink, to Barbie Doll Anatomy. |
- The list of common Bond One Liners:
(After a hearse explodes) "I think they were on their way to a funeral." |
- It's gone now, but on Vagina Dentata, after the sentence "It would be fucking painful to have your penis bitten off" (or something to that effect), there used to be a "[Citation Needed]" tag. Why, why was it taken from me?
- The Statler and Waldorf on the Russian Humour page.
- This gem from the description of Ass in A Lion Skin:
"My God! You're not a fruit bat at all! You're a killer whale!" |
- The Statler and Waldorf on the Warhammer 40000 page.
- The delightfully comprehensive disclaimer at the end of The Thing That Goes Doink:
Not to be confused with the thing that goes parp, the thing that goes ding when there's stuff, the scientific progress that goes boink, the machine that goes ping, the man who goes BONK, The Knights Who Say Ni!, The Song That Goes Like This, the thing your aunt gave that you don't know what it is, the Thing that lives in a box, The Thing that goes "It's clobberin' time!", Tonberries, the thing that goes doink-doink, the things that go squee, the thing that goes boing, The Thing That Would Not Leave, or the thing that keeps going. Definitely shouldn't be confused with The Thing. |
- From the top of the Emilie Autumn page:
Describe Emilie Autumn here. OK then: Emilie is self-described as that she sounds like the best cup of English Breakfast spiked with cyanide and smashed on your antique wallpaper. |
- The Hurricane of Puns from the Death Dealer page.
The user might be, but isn't necessarily, a Card-Carrying Villain (sorry). Also likely to be a Card Sharp (with sharp cards), so the use of such a distinctive weapon may be the killer's Calling Card (I can do this all day). If they're so improbably good that the full house won't shut up about it, they're the The Ace (yeah, I know, my card is marked. I can deal with it). |

- The St. Basil's Cathedral Running Gag on the Symbology Research Failure page. It's Better Than It Sounds.
- Of all the places, the Eldritch Abomination page. The article describes this trope extremely well, becoming rather creepy in telling how freaking wrong those creatures are, how much of an aberration to our senses and to our laws of physics they are, it makes a point of telling us that we can't even classify them as evil as they don't follow the same morals... And it ends with a"YourMom" joke.
- The Word Cruft page's explanation for why rhetorical questions are a bad idea:
This isn't the author's fault. Rhetorical questions are a very useful device! Unfortunately, an explosion in a lead paint chips factory in Montana has left a fair chunk of the internet with the approximate IQ of a retarded gibbon. If you pose a rhetorical question, or anything that could by the remotest stretch be interpreted as a rhetorical question, someone will respond to it seriously and then pat himself on the back (with his long, gibbon-like arms) for his amazing internet wit. The probability of this happening is 1. Do not write rhetorical questions. |

"It's like going to heaven and finding God smoking crack!" |

- Most of the TV Tropes articles for movies are written as though the author had a neutral opinion about it. Then there's the Camp Rock page.

- The description on the Ken Narita page as it essentially gets hijacked by the man himself, in a giant orange, apparently.
- The following quote from the top of the Annoying Laugh page:
I do realise that when I laugh, it sounds like a seal is being molested. |
- From Refuge in Audacity:
This isn't Getting Crap Past the Radar, this is crashing the crap through the front doors and out the back doors of the radar installation, in an armored car with sunglasses-wearing flaming skull decals on every flat surface and a Hieronymus Bosch reproduction on the door, hood-mounted machine guns blazing, Mot örhead blasting on the jury-rigged PA system, and one arm hanging out of the window making a rude hand gesture, and the tires leaving tracks painting sex and violence on the floor and walls. |
- A former line from the Cardcaptor Sakura page:
- I couldn't help but roll in laughter and the second entry...of this, on A Boy and His X
* Digimon, Pokémon, Monster Rancher and a slew of others make up A Boy and His Mons. |
- The Lockon/Tieria entry on the anime Ho Yay page.
- Also, from that same page:
First season of the anime is in the can, and I just have to say, 07 Ghost has the highest Ho Yay density of any non-porny show I have EVER SEEN. It's "Over Nine Thousaaaaand!" |
- On the All Animation Is Disney page, when one of the users comment on how the infamous Ella Enchanted movie was mistaken for a Disney film. After stating the company, he/she stated that it will also make Kill Bill a Disney movie as well.

- The Break the Haughty entry on Jool from Farscape once had a typo that made this troper nearly collapse:
...having to slog through a waist high swamp of incest feces. |
- The following entry on the Hard Gay page:
- Found on Ax Crazy:
Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter, a Complete Monster whose love of Cold-Blooded Torture exceeds even Voldemort's. In fact, there are numerous occasions where Voldemort decides he has to stop Bellatrix from killing anyone (admittedly because killing them would ruin some plan of his, rather than out of any actual mercy, but even so...) |
- From the Sissy Villain page:
* Cobra Commander of G.I. Joe, often described as a "faceless effeminate screechy man." Where other villains go into rages, Cobra Commander throws hissy fits.
|
** Two words: Billy. Zane. His performance is a special kind of genius -- the unintentional kind. In one scene, Cal starts shooting at Jack and Rose as the ship is sinking. As one critic put it, "Oh no! I hope he doesn't shoot them! They might drown!" |
- From the Man, I Feel Like a Woman page:
Keiichi from Ah My Goddess went through the transformation in an episode where he was working with Urd's potion ingredients. He checks his new... bumpers in the trope-specified way, then discovers he is still male from the waist down... and his lower half is pretty excited about the additions on the upper floors.

- Most likely due to the insane (and that's putting it mildly) lengths that the game takes Refuge in Audacity, most Warhammer 40000 entries on this wiki are utter hilarity, but the absolute best are its entries in Always Chaotic Evil, Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot and This Is Your Premise On Drugs. Hell, the entire Warhammer 40000 page itself is guaranteed to make you laugh. The fact that the setting runs off a mix of Refuge in Audacity, Troperrific, Rule of Cool, Darker and Edgier, and Beyond the Impossible guarantees interesting results when applied to the fact that it is also Trope Overdosed.

- The Batman character sheet, regarding Damian Wayne.
* My Dad Can Beat Up Your Dad: Fine, when your dad is Batman, you can have bragging rights. |
- Vivio's character sheet gives us this little gem for her "Cute Bruiser" entry:
- Cute Bruiser: She's quite good at martial arts. You'd think Nanoha's starting her a bit early, and should be more concerned about teaching her to do things like make friends. Oh, wait...
- This part of the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann character sheet, on Kamina...
* Messianic Archetype: Most blatantly during his death, where he is pierced in the side with Thymilph's spear. In several situations, Simon and Kittan ask themselves, "What would Kamina do?". Plus, he returns from the dead to save them all from the Lotus Eater Machine. |

- This bit in it's hilarity on the Pokémon Getting Crap Past the Radar page.
* There's also Harley. Basically every thing about him is Ambiguously Gay. He even calls May "girlfriend" a few times. It's so blatant you'd have no idea how it didn't get any angry letters from soccer moms.
Harley: (throws off his cloak to reveal that he's dressed like May) Peekaboo! It's your favorite naughty Coordinator -- me!

- Speaking of Pokémon, this page, under HeartGold and SoulSilver Section of the Memetic Molester trope.
** Also, of course, Silver's stripping scene. Silver, hating Team Rocket is not a good excuse for stripping people. Not that the fandom has any problem with it. |

** Thanks to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Wolf O'Donnell's "Can't let you do that, Star Fox!" has expanded so that Wolf can't let anybody do anything.

- This nice little bit from the DCAU Getting Crap Past the Radar page...
* In the same episode, Superman's solution to combat both Parasite's skin to skin power stealing powers and Livewire's electric powers is a (clear) full body latex body suit. Livewire's reaction: "Ooh, the boy scout brought protection!"

- The "conversation" had by the Exeuctive and Developer in the Ring Raiders entry on the Getting Crap Past the Radar page.
Executive: So, um, we need a new toy line or something. |
- The following exchange from Enchanted's entry in the Radar section:
* When Nathaniel first pops out of the manhole, the road workers, exasperated, ask him if he's looking for a beautiful princess like Edward was. Nathaniel's reply: "No. A Prince, actually." The stunned expressions on the roadworkers' faces are obvious.

- From the Teen Titans Getting Crap Past the Radar page:
In "Can I Keep Him", Johnny Rancid taunts Robin saying, "Look at that, Bird Boy, my dog is kicking your..." Beast Boy turns into a donkey and kicks him, hinting at the greatest euphemism ever in a cartoon for a certain phrase that we all know (because we all know what the old English word for donkey is).

- From the Mahou Sensei Negima Funny Moments page, this extract:
At the beginning of the seventh volume of Mahou Sensei Negima!, Asuna starts acting as though she has suddenly fallen in love with Negi, which was done dramatically (more or less) until it was revealed that she had partaken of a Love Potion by mistake. She starts to act relieved...and then this happens. —I don't think that's Setsuna's waist she has her arms around...

Examples (fridge pages)
Examples (unsorted)
- This:
|
- The whole Law Procedural sketch on I Won't Say I'm Guilty is pretty funny, but I burst out laughing at "...and the jury are apparently collaborating on a book called Burn in Hell, Wendell Spatz, You Guilty Guilty Scumbag."
- This, from the Unstoppable Rage page:
* Neon Genesis Evangelion. Long story short, do not get the Humongous Mecha mad at you. Ever.
|
- On the Dark Is Not Evil page, in the Real Life section:
Black Pope is not a new movie starring Martin Lawernce. |
- On the Scenery Censor page, discussing the pilot for Firefly, the Pot Holes:
* An interesting variation of this pops up in the pilot when River climbs out of the box. Though you don't see anything from the first few shots, the camera then switches to a far-off, wide-angle shot of the entire bay that shows River very clearly, in which nothing is covering her up, but the camera is so far off that you can't see anything distinct about her. |
- Weirdly enough, this troper found one on the Western Animation Film Nightmare Fuel page:
The Brave frickin' Little Toaster. A beloved childhood classic for many children of the 90's? Yes. An irredeemably soul-scarring fount of horror and trauma? You bet your biscuits! |
- Justice League's section for Celibate Hero. Pasted here since it was deleted:
* Celibate Hero: Batman pretty much gives Wonder Woman an entire laundry list of reasons why they won't be dating. The best is probably, "You're a princess from a race of immortal warriors while I'm a rich kid with issues. Lots of issues."
|
- The Monster Clown entry under Batman Arkham Asylum.
- This is probably the best thing on the Beam Me Up, Scotty:
* "The only traditions of the Royal Navy are rum, sodomy and the lash." -- Sir Winston Churchill never said this; his personal secretary, Anthony Montague-Browne, said that although Churchill did not say this, he wished he had.
|
- This bit from Nostalgia Ain't Like It Used to Be:
* Almost ubiquitous in the message of political "culture warriors"; apparently, all the evils of the world came to America along with the Beatles.
|
- From Misplaced Nationalism:
To a non-American, a Yankee is an American. To an American, a Yankee is a Northerner. To a Northerner, a Yankee is a Northeasterner. To a Northeasterner, a Yankee is a New Englander. To a New Englander, a Yankee is a Vermonter. To a Vermonter, a Yankee is someone who has pie for breakfast. |
- The title of For the Evulz, as well as some of the stuff on the page. The following probably takes the cake:
* The Wizard of Oz: The Wicked Witch of the West, opening the door to severe Leather Petticoating.
|
- This entry in the Sailor Moon page next to Macekre:
And the characters developed an inability to distinguish rice balls from donuts. |
- This gem from No Such Thing As Space Jesus:
|
- From the Disposable Love Interest page, this "explanation" for why Batman has a different girlfriend in every movie:
Every Batman movie has a new girl for the Batmeister who will only get mentioned if she's lucky. Catwoman probably eats them. |
- This comment from the Clash of the Titans page:
|
- This line from the Dragonball page:
You're watching a series where power levels go Beyond the Impossible, mythology and aliens get rolled up into an insane mishmash and people treat the afterlife like it has a revolving door and your biggest complaint about the scientific hardness is that Gohan isn't sterile?! |
- This line from the Dragon Ball Abridged Crowning Moment of Funny page.
In episode 18: Vegeta discovers the Dragonball he hid away is missing. This irritates him. |
- From the "Better Than It Sounds: Video Games N-Z" page: The Sims 2: The same group of people's descendants are placed into the hands of the same god, who now can bring fates worse than the plagues of egypt upon them. Death itself occasionally ignores their corpse and watches their telly.
- On the same page, the Prototype entry: "Man in hoodie goes out for lunch in New York despite the army's best attempts to stop him."
- This bit of Stealth Parody from Five-Token Band:
The Land Before Time is notable (and was quite controversial at the time) for being the first major franchise to feature a cast comprised of five different dinosaur species: Littlefoot, an Apatosaurus; Cera, a Triceratops; Ducky, a Saurolophus; Petrie, a Pteradon; and Spike, a Stegosaurus. In fact, even though the films consistently establish "Longnecks" as the most important characters, and even despite the embarrassingly stereotypical speech patterns and muteness of Petrie and Spike, respectively, credit really must be given for the portrayal of the different species existing in relative equality and harmony. Complaints continue to issue forth, however, from various "Three-Horn" advocacy groups, who insist that Triceratops are not the loud-mouthed, opinionated trouble-makers portrayed in the films, and that they do not disagree with everything everybody says. |
- The old description of Henry Kissinger on the Kavorka Man page. Mainly the last sentences.
- From the Crotch Grab Sex Check page:
* Metal Gear Solid 2: The president is a friendly guy. So friendly, in fact, that upon meeting bishounen hero Raiden, he decides to greet Raiden with a friendly cup check to make sure he's not a chick.
Raiden: YOU ARE THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER. |

* This, along with many other horrifically violent happenings, occurs in the first 10 minutes of the anime, Elfen Lied.

- From the All Girls Like Ponies page:
Of course, the trope is parodied when it's a boy or a guy who likes ponies. |
- From the Nightmare Fuel page for My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter) |
- Found on the Ambiguously Gay page under Code Geass:
** Not to mention Kanon himself, who is quite pretty and expresses more concern for Schneizel than an advisor should for a boss. Side materials state that he's a crossdresser who had a hard time getting a job until Schneizel hired him for his talents and didn't mind his peculiar tastes. |
- From the Nightmare Fuel page for Kingdom Hearts:
** As long as we're talking the final Ansem fight, World of Chaos (the ship) is pretty damn freaky even for this adult troper. That face... ick. |
- From the Monochrome Casting page:
Dawson's Creek. No black people, even in the Boston episodes. |
- Here is one from the Dirty Cop page:
Roger from American Dad turns into a dirty cop when he joins the police force in one episode... about three hours after joining, no less. |
- The Memetic Mutation page for Naruto has the following:
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter) |
- The following from the XXX Holic page.
* Even the Guys Want Him: Kimihiro Watanuki. Remember the Love Triangle he thought he was in? Well... he is interested in Himawari Kunogi and she kinda likes him back, but it turns out his "love rival" Shizuka Doumeki isn't interested in Himawari like he believed, but in Watanuki himself. Oh, and you know Zashiki Warashi, that cute girl that's completely shy and has a huge crush on Watanuki? In all likelihood, "she" is a "he," according to a CLAMP interview where they say that her being female is not necessarily the case. Coupled with the fact that Zashiki Warashi spirits are normally described as being young boys and rarely being girls, along with how Ame-warashi usually says "this child" when referring to Zashiki Warashi instead of actually using a gender... yeah. Watanuki apparently has more luck with the male gender... |
- This gem from the Walking Shirtless Scene page:
* Apparently Aladdin couldn't afford buttons for his vest. Or a shirt.
I steal only what I can't afford

- From the Changeling: The Lost page:
Touched By Vorlons -- "Bad touched by Vorlons" is more like it, though... |
- From the Mulan page, a somewhat stealthy example:
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter) |
- Most of the stuff in the Wall Banger pages, just because of how some of it's worded. For example, consider the following from the films section:
WALL-E: A sudden, huge wallbang moment that nearly got this troper kicked out of the theater. In the final bits of the movie, a spaceship generating its own artificial gravity IS SHOWN TO TIP TO THE SIDE BECAUSE EVERYONE MOVED TO THAT SIDE. Like a boat on the sea. Despite the fact that they were in a vacuum. Because that's how gravity works in deep space. Seriously. My brain tried to crawl out and cry in the bathroom. |
- The Paranoia Fuel entry for F.E.A.R.:
* Alma is standing right behind you... Made you look.
|
- From the Dull Surprise page:
* In the Twilight film, Bella certainly has a collection of such emotions.
|
- This bit from The Last Unicorn page:
* Narm: Whenever somebody mentioned the Red Bull, I kept picturing the energy drink.
|
- On the page for Jersey Shore, Snooki is described with the trope Our Goblins Are Different In fact, most of the stuff on that page qualifies. This, for instance:
Guilty Pleasure: That or So Bad It's Good. Admit it. It's a train wreck that spews out hair gel and STD's. |
- From the Purity Sue page under Smallville:
** Which turned out be the case. To top it all off, she marks her departure from the show by becoming a God Mode Sue with powers equal to Clark's. Suetiful to the last.
|
- This enigma from Trope Names for A Band (under Dronejam):
Is it even possible for a band to be better than they sound? |
- From Beat Still My Heart:
* This, along with many other horrifically violent happenings, occurs in the first 10 minutes of the anime, Elfen Lied.
|
- The entire Crack Pairing page is friggin' hilarious, but this bit from the Harry Potter section is absolutely fantastic:
** Just for the sake of curiosity, are there any Dobby/Grawp fics out there?
|
- And to make it even better, that's in the middle of the section -- the search for a pairing not yet thought of in the Harry Potter fandom continues (in utter vain).
- From Eyes Do Not Belong There:
* Nobody mentioned Fullmetal Alchemist? Several of the Homunculi qualify for this. The manga version of Envy turns into a monster-thing with screaming faces randomly scattered across its body. Pride has a Living Shadow full of eyes. And mouths. And he's based on Father's original form, a blob of shadow with a single eye and mouth; Father eventually turns into a walking, eye- and mouth-covered man made of shadows. He doesn't even bother to form a normal face, having a single enormous eye and a too-wide mouth where his head would be. Yeesh.
|
- Some of the examples on "The Reason You Suck" Speech page are really funny.
- The Crowning Moment of Funny page for Menagea3 is pretty funny, but its the following that takes the cake:
* Does this mean I had a three-way?
No, Gary. You were just getting a little head. |
- The following from the Dramatic Unmask page:
* The Phantom of the Opera, especially the silent film.
|
- From the All There Is to Know About "The Crying Game" page:
That's it. I can't keep it a secret any longer. Count Dracula is a vampire, an undead creature from folklore that drinks the blood of the living. |
- From the Video Games section of Heterosexual Life Partners:
The countries Canada and USA in E Republik have a treaty that says they will "never give up on each other, never let each other down, and never run around or desert one another."
—...did I just get rick rolled by a treaty?

Tim Burton: Well, he's close enough to a trope nowadays. |
- The last of the list of possible aesops you could get from Nightmare:
Or maybe that Jack really, really sucks at being Santa Claus. |
- The page history for the recap of "The Lodger" features this hilarious squirrelking-esque edit, filed under "maybe no editing while drunk":
- THE DOCTOR and Amy are trying to land on the Fifth Moon of Sinda Callista but the TARDIS lands on Earth instead. Oh well. At least it didn't land on Skaros or anything. Everything is good, birds are singing, the sun is shining the day is perf- OH NOS! THE TARDIS LEFT WITHOUT THE DOCTOR AND AMY IS TRAPPED INSIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!11! A day later, a man walks past a 2-story house.
- "HELLO? CAN YOU HELP ME? THERE'S BEEN AN ACCIDENT."
- The man enters the house, as the door slowly and spookily unlocks itself.
- "HELP YOU? HOW?"
- "COME IN."
- ZAAAAPPPPPPPPPPPPPP. Uhoh. I think there's been an accident :).
- Also in Doctor Who Recaps, there's this gem from "The Eleventh Hour":
- If it takes one battleship 20 minutes to charge up enough to blow up the world, and the Atraxi have a good-size fleet, why don't they all just charge up for a minute apiece and kill Earth with a thousand cuts?
- You can't have a baby in a month by impregnating nine women.
- I accept your challenge.
- If it takes one battleship 20 minutes to charge up enough to blow up the world, and the Atraxi have a good-size fleet, why don't they all just charge up for a minute apiece and kill Earth with a thousand cuts?
- Also in Doctor Who Recaps, there's this gem from "The Eleventh Hour":
- I keep going back to Signature Style to read THIS, which never stops being funny:
C-Could it be? The -- the Super Smash Bros Brawl daily site updates!! Oh! Masahiro Sakurai, the game's master of ceremonies, writes in a heartwarming, dramatic, mildly awkward style, clearly dragged from another language -- rumour has it that it might be the fault of the localisers. Could that be...ambiguity? And then there's lots! Of! Strange punctuation? And! Onomatopoeia! Whaaaaaaaaaah!! (laughs) |
- Surprisingly enough, there's one on the Hell Is That Noise page:
|
- This glorious little example from the Is It Something You Eat page:
Humanity runs on this. How many foods are created by letting something spoil under specific conditions? Pickles, cheese, salami, beer, butter, etc. Basically, the invention of new food goes something like this: |
- This exchange on the Toy Story page:
* Ken in general. He's the source of so many gay jokes...
|
- From Orgasmic Combat:
* Tsukuyomi. Seriously, you could take the dialogue from the fight scene with Setsuna and replace it with porn and no one would know the difference. |
- The Bowdlerise page has this little gem in the form of the responses from two tropers to the entry mentioning that Terry Pratchett cancelled plans for a movie of the Discworld story Mort when the producers gave him a real Wall Banger of a request:
** That makes me die a little inside.
|
- From False Reassurance:
Hang on, hang on. Lancelot came in to rescue her, had sex with her and then left without rescuing her? What a dick! |
- The following found under Anime Hair on the Heroman page:
Psy. It looks like Spike Spiegel's hair on crack. |
- From the Metal Gear Solid 4 page, it's the emoticon that does it:
Wangst: One of Raiden's lines in particular. It even raaaaiiiiiined the day I was born! :( |
- Any entry becomes funnier with emoticons. From Spoony's funnies page:
Wakka: You're no amateur. Who you play for? |
- This gem from the Tropers Do It Without Notability page:
- Head to All The Tropes Wiki Drinking Game and Ctrl+ F "Egregious".
We apologize that "egregious" now no longer looks like a word. |
- Also, at the Moral Event Horizon page, it's typed that one of Grand Moff Tarkin's Moral Event Horizons was giving the males of a whole race to the Stormtroopers for live target practice. It used to be written under that:
- From Eating the Eye Candy:
Take a sip for every mention Bella from Twilight makes of Edward's Eyes of Gold, marble skin that sparkles in the sunlight, or his overall beauty being comparable to an angel's. You'll be under the table in no time. Twilight: Causing liver failure worldwide! |
- This exchange from the Deus Ex Machina page:
"From Chamber of Secrets", we have the magical car that saves Harry and Ron from the spiders just in time. True, it was in the Forbidden Forest, but that was months ago. The chances of it coming just in time is blatantly impossible, and there's the fact that it would have run out of gas and oil a long time ago."
—"You're worrying about oil pressure in the MAGIC, FLYING CAR?!"

- Everybody Remembers the Stripper gives us this:
* What are the two things everyone remembers about Power Girl?

- This gem is found in WTH Casting Agency under the Western Animation section. It Makes Sense in Context
"Luke Skywalker, Destroyer of Worlds." |
- Too Dumb to Fool has either improved or ruined Star Wars forever.

- This interpretation of the episode "Members Only" from The Powerpuff Girls section of Getting Crap Past the Radar.
"The giant robot monster emerges and begins to GROW in size, threatening the MANHOOD of all the male superheroes. He challenges the other members to DISPLAY their MANHOOD and COMPARE it against his to see whose is LARGER. The battle only serves to EXCITE the beast. It FEEDS off the EXPULSIONS of their MANLINESS and makes him HARDER. The PPGs intervene by forming a giant flaming PUSSY cat and attack the villain. The PUSSY cat RUBS UP AGAINST the robot's HARD exterior making it HOTTER and HOTTER. Eventually the HEAT from the RUBBING reaches a critical point causing him to SCREAM OUT and SHRINK into a SMALLER version of himself. The male superheroes are so grateful for the PPGs' PERFORMANCE that they wish to SUBMIT to the girls' superiority. The girls PUNISH them for their behavior by making them wear dresses. Not too surprising considering how well their PUSSY WHIPPED that monster." |
- Whoever pointed out on the Advent Rising page that a quickly-killed bounty hunter was named Barakah Bahma, then pointed out that if you said his name faster, it sounded like...
- From the Shallow Love Interest page:
* Mikaela from the live-action version of Transformers . She herself asks Sam, "Do you think I'm shallow?" in the first film. To which he replies, "No, there's more to you than meets the eye." Except that no, there isn't. |
- This rather meta discussion from Better Than a Bare Bulb:
* Every "Movie" movie by Seltzer and Friedberg (such as Epic Movie, Meet The Spartans, and Disaster Movie) is all about hanging lampshades when it's not shoehorning pop culture references. But then they explain what the lampshade is hanging over. Hence, it ends up more horrible than Troperiffic.

- The entry for Fridge Horror on the Space Mutiny page. That's an... interesting take on that trope.
- Go to the Fridge Brilliance page for Video Games. Open the Sonic the Hedgehog folder and read the entry about the "hypothetical example" (as of this edit, the third major bullet down). Guaranteed to crack at least one smile.
- The reference to Sierra in the entry for Unwinnable By Design on the Homestuck page. Sadly it's been deleted in an Edit War since then...
- Also from Crack is Cheaper we have this gem:
|
- From Have a Gay Old Time:
|
- From Badass Furry, we have this gem:
"I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am the vandal who blanks Wikipedia's 'Crime' article! I am Darkwing Duck!" |
- Also very funny if you try acting it out in Darkwing's style.

"◦Legion money, on the other hand, is actually valued higher than caps because it's made of precious metals. It can also be combined with shotgun shells to form coin shot, which is a currency accepted EVERYWHERE." |
- The Fan-Preferred Couple entry on the Corpse Bride page:
- From the Brave Scot page:
|
- From the Full Metal Panic page under Ho Yay:
* Gauron towards Sousuke. Also overlaps with Foe Yay.
|
* Although the infomercial for the Ronco Miracle Blade III set features shots of actors doing exactly what you'd expect knives to do, like cutting a turkey, but the first shot shows an actress stabbing a tomato with an inappropriate knife and apparently hitting the artery. |
- A great deal of that page is laugh-worthy, actually.
- "The eggs look like Manuel Noriega's skin."
- From Neon Genesis Evangelion Gakuen Datenroku:
* Shadow Archetype: Scary Gendo is scary. |
- The case against the Ancients of Stargate SG 1 on the Neglectful Precursors page. So massive it has its own folder, and halfway down the entry, the tropers up the verdict to teraguilty.
- From the Fan Service page for Naruto:
** The second Shippuuden opening has a slow pan over Sasuke, who is stark naked except for a snake. No comment. |
- From under Crowning Moment of Awesome on the Axis Powers Hetalia page:
* The Hetalia movie is about as padded as a Japanese bra. |
- From the Questionable Content page:
Expy: Jeph mentioned in a recent forum post that he designed Marigold to be essentially "an Anglicized version of Konata from Lucky Star."
|
- From the Ho Yay page for Jane Austen:
* Waitwaitwait. Miss Crawford's "Rears and Vices" joke hasn't been mentioned yet? It's a canonical gay joke, people. |
- From the Soul Eater character sheet:
"Foreign Fanservice / Phenotype Stereotype / Gangsterland: Liz and Patti are blonde, wear cowboy boots, have the large breasts, and are former muggers who liked to get high. It's like the American dream." |
- From the Nightmare Fuel Real Life page:
The man with the axe that is standing behind you right now. |
- Found on Extreme Omnisexual:
** Dolphins and whales. People have been injured while swimming with dolphins because they got a little too excited.
|
- From the Getting Crap Past the Radar page for Ka Blam:
* The name of this segment is an example of Getting Crap Past the Radar. "Sniz" is slang for the female genitals, and yes it was in use before the show was made.
|
- From Berserker Tears:
|
* Uchiha Sasuke's good looks coupled with the fact that All Girls Want Bad Boys have gotten him hordes of admirers, all who blush and Squee at the sight of him, which he finds incredibly annoying and has no patience for it. The worst of them is Karin, who kept one of his sweat-drenched shirts for herself, and planned on "ravaging him after everyone went to bed". |
- From the Narm entry on the Bible Black page:
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter) |
- From the Mind Screw page:
* The music video for "Disturbia" by Rihanna. It looks like if Nightmare Fuel manifested itself in music video form, and didn't care about whether it made any sense or not. |
- When some Tropers describe their reactions to links on the Nightmare Fuel pages. It is something else to read someone relaying their harrowed experiences with "entertainment" that frequently crosses the Despair Event Horizon and into So Bad It's Horrible and then the next line descends into Tourettes Shitcock Syndrome.
- From Wallbangers/Film:
*** Errr, how did you expect him to use a syringe on Jean when she was disintegrating everything around her? She was destroying whole buildings and humans and mutants in seconds; there's no way that the syringes would remain whole through her onslaught. It's not like they're made from the same material as Wolverine's pants.
|
- From The Expendables page:
Somewhere, Michael Bay is watching this movie, dabbing a tissue at the single Manly Tear at the corner of his eye, and whispering, "it's beautiful". Then he throws away the tissue. And it explodes. |
- Heterosexual Life Partners has some speculation regarding SpongeBob's sexuality:
* SpongeBob and Patrick of Spongebob SquarePants.
|
- The "Toys" section on Ass Shove.
- This exchange from the Poor Man's Substitute page:
If you're really desperate and Martin Sheen isn't available, you can hire Joe Estevez on the cheap.
—This is not an appropriate venue to advertise your services, Joe.
|
- We have this little gem from the character sheet for 5th gen Pokemon:
* No Pronunciation Guide: How do you exactly prounounce Minccino...? Minseeno? Meecheeno? Missingno? ...Oh god. |
- This bit under If You're So Evil Eat This Kitten:
TV Tropes must be one of the few places you can type "kitten" in the search engine and wind up reading about the mafia. |
- Two completely out-of-place entries in the Death Note character sheet:
[Near] just ain't L, and some fans can't quite accept that. |
Mikami bears an uncanny resemblence to L. Makes you wonder what Light was thinking... |
- The Avenue Q page has at least two.
- Example 1 (Family-Unfriendly Aesop):
** Somewhat averted with "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist" in that the song ultimately preaches a higher level of tolerance and peace in the world through a "don't sweat the small stuff" mentality.
|
- Example 2 (Fantastic Racism):
* 'Monsters' sometimes face mild discrimination -- with their only biological difference being fur as opposed to... cloth... covering their bodies.
|
- This paragraph from Police Brutality is Black Comedy at its finest:
"The LAPD beats your ass and then decides what crime you committed; the NYPD shoots you a few dozen times then pronounces you innocent; 1930s cops are drunk Irishmen who beat you up for being Italian; 1960s cops are sober Irishmen who beat you up for having long hair; small town cops pull you over, tell you that your tail light is busted, and then bust your tail light with a nightstick." |
- From the Disney Getting Crap Past the Radar page:
* That scene in Beauty and The Beast where Lumiere is chasing a maid/feather duster around behind the curtains: "Oh no!" "Oh yes!" Especially when we saw the maid again after the spell was broken.
|
- On the Badass Creed page, all the Lantern Corps oaths are in All Blue Entry form. The entire Indigo Tribe oath is Pot Holed to The Unintelligible. Because, you know, they speak gibbrish.
- The Vagina Dentata page gives us this, in sucession:
* A Japanese legend involves a demon hidden in a woman's vagina, who would bite off men's penises until he broke his teeth on a specially-made steel dildo. The legend is commemorated with the Kanamara Matsuri, Festival of the Steel Penis where people eat loads of phallic pastries.
|
- From the Star Driver character sheet, about Takuto (the sheer laconic factor just makes it):
His entire reason for coming to the island is to punch his dad. |
- From the Haruhi Suzumiya page.
* Dynamic Entry: Haruhi gives the Computer Club president one with both legs at once.
|
- An interesting analogy from the Menstrual Menace page:
* In Star Trek, pon farr in Vulcans can be compared to this, with the added drama of having to Mate or Die. Notable in that both males and females are affected.
|
- From the But Not Too Gay page:
* A-fucking-VERTED in Glee once Kurt and Blaine kissed. It was not a blink-or-you-miss-it peck, it was not played up to boost ratings (even the actors weren't completely sure until they were given their scripts!), and it came after an extremely touching Love Epiphany that was free of angst, guilt, or impulse. And then after catching their breath, Kurt and Blaine practically attacked each other! Not for nothing is this all over LGBT news, YouTube, and Twitter.
|
- From the Pokémon page:
Rock Smash is Cut... IN CAVES, BUT ALSO SOMETIMES OUTSIDE AS WELL! |
- The first entry in the Real Life folder on the Awful Truth page:
* YOUR PARENTS HAD SEX. |
- The entry for "Minor Chords" on the Mood Motif page. Come on, admit it, you laughed.
- This conversation on the This Is a Drill page.
* The Fire Nation use a giant drill as a siege weapon in Avatar: The Last Airbender. (episode title: "The Drill")
|
- From Pinky and The Brain:
* Common Sense: Subverted. |
- From Dramatic Shattering: In case emergency plot is needed, break glass.
- While most of the Exaggerated Trope examples qualify, the literal one from Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? stands out. The idea of Cthulhu in a ring, with gloves and boxers... yeah.
- The following from The Doll Episode:
* The Simpsons: the season four Treehouse of Horror ("Treehouse of Horror III", production code 9F04, for you rabid fans) where Homer gets Bart a cursed Krusty doll from a Chinese man's curio shop filled with cursed and weird objects from around the world.
|
- From Ass Shove:
* Bruce Almighty. The title character uses god-powers to exact ironic revenge on some guys who taunted him earlier in the film. Really the wrong time to say that the chances of something happening were as low as the chance of a monkey climbing out of your ass.
|
*** The highest Narm-factor scores the German synchro: "Was ist ... mit meinem Körper?!" (In English: "What is ... with my body?!"). Is he having a date with Rosie Palms for the first time in this sand balloon of his or what is his major malfunction?! |
- From Twenty Bear Asses, there's the mention of the Biblical incident where David had to collect 100 Philistine foreskins. What takes the cake is the description of the whole things as a Fetch Quest, ending with "WORST. QUEST. EVER."
- From Fridge Horror:
No, not last week's leftover tuna casserole. |
- From the Nightmare Fuel page for Lost.
** For this troper, considering what a creepy Ax Crazy Complete Monster the guy is, it was rather unnerving to see Martin Keamy again. I was also more than thankful when Sayid shot the guy.
|
- From The Ditz:
* Natsuru, main character of Kämpfer, in the anime. S/he was already dumb as a brick with special needs in the manga and light novel, but the anime went Beyond the Impossible and turned hir into a character thinking exclusively with hir non-existent penis... while being Oblivious to Love. Consequentially, s/he spends most of the series just sorta standing there with a dazed and confused expression, not even bothering to do much fighting or noting the Obviously Evil characters, or wondering what the smeg was going on with the secret magical girl war s/he was drafted into, or why the hot girls kept blushing around hir and taking hir out to eat... S/he is also a Pinball Protagonist, doing absolutely nothing of relevance whatsoever other than obliviously make all the lesbians in the room damp. |
- From the Sym Bionic Titan "Crowning Moment of Awesome" page, we had this gem:
"In the Shaman of Fear when they overcome his Mind Rape and then proceed to fuck him senseless with a spear." |
- From the Memetic Mutation page for Literature under Twilight:
** The chagrinning books also suffer from the chagrinning act of shoehorning the word chagrin, no matter how chagrinningly innapropriate, into every chagrinning sentence, much to the chagrin of many. |
- From Serious Business, though much of the page could qualify:
Yami Yugi: Dude, don't you think you're overreacting a little? I mean, it's just a card game. |
- From Freud Was Right:
90% of the humor and 50% of the violence on The Powerpuff Girls is disturbingly Freudian. Just try to watch the episodes "Members Only" and "The Boys Are Back in Town" without wanting to take a cold shower. Seriously — "Whenever their masculinity is threatened, they shrink in size." Apparently, this is what happens when an action series stars little girls. |
- Found under Boston Legal on the Ho Yay page:
- The way Frank Miller's page mixes tropes found in his work and tropes found in his life makes him seem a bit crazy.
- The Real Life page: "Goldfish Poop Gang: The Westborough Baptist Church."
- From Hot Skitty-On-Wailord Action:
|
- The "Meta" example from the Lampshade-Wearing page, taking a little jab at This Very Wiki. It makes sense once you read the description of the trope.
The TV Tropes logo wears one, although whether it's drunk or not is up to opinion. |
- This commentary on General Custer's inaccurate reputation on the Leeroy Jenkins page: "Well, people tend not to live down battles in which they died."
- For some reason, the Nightmare Fuel page for Toysis ungodly funny.
- The Gonk page is pretty funny for the descriptions of said Gonks.
- On the Freudian Excuse page, we get this gem from one of the Avatar: The Last Airbender entries:
"I'd be pretty messed up too if my father was voiced by Mark Hamill." |
- From the Foe Yay page for Western Animation:
** Alan Moore did once draw a comic where they turned out to be a gay couple with a taste for S&M.
|
- This bit from Now Do It Again Backwards:
A list of all the occurrences of this trope in Star Trek turned out to be longer than the Universe and collapsed into a black hole that we were only barely able to reverse by rewriting the list in reverse order, so let's just leave it at those two. |
- This bit from Foot Focus:
Through most of the first season of Code Lyoko, any time Yumi Ishiyama entered the scene, the camera would spend several seconds focusing on her feet as she walked. Granted, she was wearing her big gray boots at the time, but she also has bath scenes with close-ups focusing on several parts of her naked body, her feet included. She is 14 years old. Hooray for wholesome family entertainment! |
- From the Hell Is That Noise page for Video Games:
The most horrifying sound from Ocarina of Time? Hey! Listen! |
- On the main Thomas the Tank Engine page:
- From the Get a Hold of Yourself, Man! page under "Anime & Manga":
Revolutionary Girl Utena: Name an episode that doesn't have someone being slapped. Forget duels, slapping is the prefered method of doing harm to someone in the show. |
- Found under the Narm page for film:
"You... complete me" in Jerry Maguire. It doesn't help that Tom Cruise looked like he was taking a dump while he said it. |
- From the same page:
In these films, Legolas frequently says randomly portentous lines for no discernible reason. |
- Also, "Emmett looks like he smelled something nasty -- maybe sparkly BO is worse than normal BO...?"
- The Ha Ha Ha No page has the following:
* Durarara: Shinra, after Izaya trolls him by handing his cellphone number to the police. |
* Ishida:"Let me hold your sword... It got so big!"
|
- From the Weirdness Coupon page, especially if you've been giving said coupons yourself without thinking about it:
* If it's written by CLAMP, the fans give it a homosexuality coupon (valid even with most homophobes), a bizarre, twisted incomprehensible symbolic mysticism coupon, an inappropriate-romantic-pairing coupon, a Xanatos Roulette coupon, an Impossibly Cool Clothes coupon, and probably several others. Reasons are unclear, but usually boil down to either "the story/characterization is too engaging" and/or "you can no more ask CLAMP to stop doing any of these things than you can ask the Washington Monument to tap dance". |
- This comment in the Real Life Crowning Moment of Funny page:
Troper #1: Jesus rode into Jerusalem sitting on an ass. |
- Surprisingly, there is one on the Nightmare Fuel page for Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Finally the greatest amount of Gorn in the movie: the GNR's neck tearing from the body, with spurts of blood coming from the neck. And then, the head falls off, with the neck muscles and SPINE exposed. And finally, the head SPLITS IN HALF AS HER LIMBS FALL APART AND THE ENTIRE BODY MELTS INTO A POOL OF BLOOD! |
- From the CM Punk page.
* Idiot Ball: For all the Genre Savvy and Leaning On the Fourth Wall Punk has been showing for a while now, it was quite grating when on the 8-22-11 edition of Raw he fell for the classic hey-look-at-me-I'm-a-guy-on-the-outside-of-the-ring-who-actually-can't-do-anything-to-you-hey-hey-over-here-now-that-I've-had-your-attenntion-for-several-seconds-turn-around-to-get-hit-with-the-finisher-of-the-guy-you-would-have-beat-if-you-weren't-an-idiot-lol-kthxbai. |
- The Postman Pat They Changed It, Now It Sucks example.
They Changed It, Now It Sucks: Most people who watched the original as children (or even as parents) are horrified by Special Delivery Service. HELICOPTERS?! AND A TRAIN?! AND ETHNIC PEOPLE?! AND WHERE THE HELL ARE GRANNY DRYDEN AND MISS HUBBARD?! |
- The "Real Life" folder on the Archive Panic page. The first entry in the folder and the responses to it describe human history as if it were a long-running book or television series, which by itself is mildly amusing. What makes it a CMoF is the response to the second entry:
* Of course, human history is nothing compared to the history of the universe. 13,700,000,000 years, and still going strong.
|
- From Portmanteau Couple Name:
*** Ron/Snape must be... Wait a second...
|
- Funny story: some time ago I took an evening out to format The Muppet Show character sheet and add several characters who were missing. Most of them I had at least a good half-dozen tropes to stick on them, but I couldn't come up with any for Pops. So, I took a look at the list of "Old People Tropes" and the only one I found that seemed to apply was Senior Sleep Cycle. So I stuck that there with a note implying that I could only come up with one trope for Pops because I fell asleep. Hilariously, it's been over half a year and that entry remains untouched by Wiki Magic. Either nobody could come up with anything either, or they liked the joke too much to remove it.
- From the Does This Remind You of Anything? page, in response to the paragraph about "Tony Stark's abusive boyfriend":
My god. It's like somebody loaded Lifetime and the Sci-Fi Channel into opposite ends of a particle accelerator. |
- The original appearance of a Wall Banger of Caillou:
Wild Mass Guessing / Headscratchers
- This conversation in Headscratchers: Memetic Mutation
* Why does M.Bison find Guile being beat up delicious?
|
- The Headscratchers page for Clue. For some reason pointing out the logical flaws of a board game as if it were a serious murder mystery is funny in and of itself, but I nearly collapsed in laughter when someone postulated "Maybe he explodes when something touches him" I've never heard of whatever the Pothole references, but good god that was funny.
- The discussion on Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans on the Harry Potter Headscratchers page.
- This line, a couple topics down:
"And how would you know how a gerbil tastes in the first place?" |
- This bit from the Kim Possible Wild Mass Guessing page.
** She even said she's into boys "Sometimes."
|
- The Twilight Headscratchers page has these gems:
- The plothole about why "a family of immortal vampires has a sippy cup in their household".
Sometimes Esme's baby-mania gets the better of her and decides that one of her "children" needs a diaper change and a bed time story. Edward doesn't like to talk about those times very much, probably because he's her most common target (why else would he be so fucked up?). |
- This plothole:
Why did it take the Volturi so long to reach Forks? Irina runs off, and suddenly Alice sees the Volturi arriving...in a couple months. Alice and Bella get there in New Moon in less than a few days. The Volturi are rich and should have capable transportation, and everyone is already in Volterra so they don't need to spend time gathering their forces. Even if Irina didn't have access to a phone, she could have run to the Voluturi within a few days. Did they get lost at the airport? Did they misplace where they had packed their wives? Did they take a stroll through Russia?
—Now I want to read THAT book: 'The Terminal: Volturi Edition!' It'd be awesome, with Jane inflicting her psychic torture on immigration officials and Aro giggling over those turny baggage things and the entire gang taking up a whole section of the airport and creeping people out, but none of the humans say anything because they don't want to be Mistaken for Racist.
|
- From the Mushishi Headscratchers page, as to why Ginko's Fan Nickname is 'Pimp-ko':
Because he's so incredibly cool, ofcourse. He wins the hearts of most female characters and then ditches them saying he can't stick along for long periods of time 'because of the mushis'. He travels from town to town breaking hearts and kicking ass. He doesn't need to get the girl, he knows he can, and that's enough for him and his hordes of fans. |
- From Up Headscratchers, explaining why Carl didn't get in trouble with the FAA:
"Hello, is this the FAA? Yeah, there's this guy flying in a house. Yes, he's attached his house to a million balloons and he's just flying it down the... hello? Hello?" |
- Also from that page, this comment from the argument over whether or not Russell is Asian:
Flik was blue, Sully was blue, Mike was green, Remy was grey, WALL-E was brown, Lightning McQueen was red, and Nemo and Marlon were orange with white stripes. How much more diverse can you get? |
- From the Prototype Headscratchers page, on the "powers" of civilian disguises:
God knows I always wanted to use the power of accounting after I eat a civilian...
—"Sir, we've spotted Mercer! He's— He's... ... ...uh, sir, he's recalculating the city's debt on the side of the Chrysler Building..."
|
- On the Persona 4 WMG page there was this exchanged based on the idea that Naoto and Minato were siblings.
Guys, Come on. This idea is milked so many times in Fan Fiction that it's probably canon in the minds of thousands. |
- This bit from the Headscratchers page for The Princess and The Frog is TV Tropes Made of Win Archive, purely for the mental picture:
* And what was Eudora's reaction when her daughter who'd been missing for three days came through the door wearing an enormous sparkly dress, along with her new husband and alligator buddy?
|
- From Batman Arkham Asylum Headscratchers:
"New game idea: "I'm Batman". In this platformer-action adventure-MMORPG-RTS-Beat 'Em Up-Rhythm Game, you play as the Dark Knight, going around and holding up Gotham's deadliest villains by the neck and saying "I'm Batman". There are 'aggression' and 'volume' meters that you have to max out, as well as 'the' and 'goddamn' buttons that provide bonus points if you use them in the right situation. Playable on 'Conroy', 'Keaton' and 'Bale' difficulty levels, with an unlockable bonus mode in which you play as Adam West. Not Adam West's Batman. You're just Adam West going around shouting at people. DLC has been announced, but not yet specified. Available Fall 2010, on Xbox360, PC and PS 3." |
- Just the line, "You're just Adam West going around shouting at people," conjures up the most hilarious image I've gotten in my head from this site.
- You mean like this?:
- Just the line, "You're just Adam West going around shouting at people," conjures up the most hilarious image I've gotten in my head from this site.
Harrison Ford: (repeatedly grabs random people and yells at them) Give me back my family! |
- From the Peanuts Headscratchers page:
* Jesus, Lucy, Violet, and Patty are CRUEL to poor Charlie Brown! They expect him to get an over-commercialized tree, made of pink aluminum? Charlie brings back a tree that looks like one that would be next to the humble manger, and they all laugh at him! Even damned SNOOPY! Although it sets up a Crowning Moment of Awesome with the "That's what Christmas is all about" speech, I just want to wring those three bitches' neck!!
|
- Although many of the theories on Lady Gaga's WMG page are quite funny, special mention goes to the one that claims The Fame Monster is a Take That at Twilight (may also be a Crowning Moment of Awesome, if you're part of Twilight's Hatedom). Also, the one about her secretly being her own parents and/or John Lennon.
- The Marble Hornets Headscratchers page when someone asks where the character's families are during all this.
- From the Get a Hold of Yourself, Man! page:
Name an episode of Revolutionary Girl Utena that doesn't have someone being slapped. I don't think it exists. Forget duels, slapping is the prefered method of doing harm to someone in the show. |
- The Running Gag on the Disney Animated Canon Headscratchers page concerning Bambi's mother. She was in season and tasted good smoked and/or made into sausage.

* SpongeBob has Negative Continuity.
|
- The Headscratchers page for The Emperor's New Clothes.
- On the subject of Headscratchers for classic folklore, that one post on The Tortoise and The Hare was just so unexpected in contrast to the discussions on the true moral of the story that it's hard not to laugh.
- On the Kyon: Big Damn Heroes WMG page, the entry about Durandall is FUCKING HILARIOUS.
- On the Headscratchers page for Flipping the Bird, this lovely conversation occurs when someone wants to know why actually doing the flipping kind of is painful:
- You may also want to try cracking your knuckles more often. Loosen up the joints a little. Plus, you don't have to have your other fingers down at the knuckle and flush with your palm; just enough to get the point across.
- TV Tropes... where we teach you how to be an asshole.
- You may also want to try cracking your knuckles more often. Loosen up the joints a little. Plus, you don't have to have your other fingers down at the knuckle and flush with your palm; just enough to get the point across.
- This bit from the Cats Don't Dance page:
* Parental Abandonment: Where are Darla's, exactly?
|
- This absolute bloody gem from the Goblet of Fire Headscratchers page:
It's called polyphasic sleep. One of my friends at college did it. You sleep for 30 minutes every 6 hours, and it forces your body to abandon natural circadian rhythms. It's intended to give you more time awake each day. Of course, if you do it improperly it causes you to hallucinate and think you're in The Legend of Zelda, but there you are. |
- From the Doctor Who WMG page:
After the Events of Victory of the Daleks the Dalek Rangers threw the most awesome victory party the universe has ever seen, in celebration of finally pulling one over on the Doctor. I only bring this up because the idea of the Daleks OF ALL RACES doing your typical wild party antics with those screeching voices of theirs amuses me.
Scientist: DALEK ETERNAL, TRUTH OR DARE? |
- The Headscratchers page for Monty Python and The Holy Grail.
- This response to the WMG that Calvin of Calvin and Hobbes is a furry in development and Hobbes is his fursona: "Bill Watterson is spinning in his grave, and he's not even dead!"
- This little exchange on the Fairy Tail Headscratchers page is quite amusing:
* There're still other jobs that I wouldn't really trust Fairy Tail members with. One job once was to teach a bunch of little kids magic...do you really want a Fairy Tail member to corrupt your young?
|
- On The Flintstones WMG page, the third & fifth entries and the reactions to them.
- This bit from the Mathematician's Answer Headscratchers page:
About the most recognized use of Mathematician's Answer is answering "yes" when meaning "both". "Do you prefer it shaken, or unstirred?" "Yes." This is universally understood by more or less everyone on the Internet. Which is what bugs me, since technically, mathematically if you will, such an answer would mean "yeah, one or more of them", which is nearly no answer at all. What is appalling is that no one else seems to notice the incongruity, and the Internet should be smarter than that. Am I wrong? Are they wrong? Is the Internet broken? The uncertainty is tearing me apart.
—Yes.
|
- From the Headscratchers page for The Dresden Files, this analogy to the Alpha's vigilante work around the University of Chicago campus:
The College isn't some five-star restaurant that everyone's trying to get into. It's McDonald's. A McDonald's where whenever you try to get a burger, someone punches you in the nose and knocks it out of your hand. After a while of that, you just say fuck it and go to Burger King instead. |
- From the Futurama Headscratchers page:
Troper: You mean the military that treats Zapp Brannigan like the reincarnations of Sun Tzu and Napoleon combined? |
- From the Dirty Dancing Headscratchers page:
* How does Neil Kellerman know that there aren't any books in Johnny's room? It's not like he would have a reason to go there, right?
|
Laconic / Playing W. / Haiku
- The Fetish Fuel page had Haikus:
I feel arousal. |
- The Playing With page for People Sit On Chairs. Just that someone would make that page is one thing, but... oh wait, I did that. Never mind. You saw nothing.
- The So Bad Its Horrible haiku by Tropers/Cow. It's pretty normal "Oh god, why!" stuff, until the last line which simply says:
Troper Tales / Fetish Fuel
NOTE: This wiki no longer has any Troper Tales or Fetish Fuel pages, but that doesn't mean you can't laugh at some of the stuff that used to be there!
- The Fetish Fuel examples being cut and moved to a separate wiki.
- The following from the Family Guy Fetish Fuel page:
Chris, anyone? There's definitely a market for big dumb blond men with freakishly big dicks who are easy to manipulate.
|
- I presume that that was one of the reasons why Fetish Fuel was moved; to protect the rest of us.
- The Troper Tales page for Raging Stiffie. Totally relatable yet totally hilarious! Especially the Eiffel Tower bit.
- This exchange on the Kuudere Troper Tales page:
This Troper probably qualifies as one. On the outside, she's either a Shrinking Violet or cynical, tough, cold, and antisocial. Which she's really not. She's just really shy among strangers and doesn't like talking, but once she gets used to people or generally starts feeling comfortable, she's a Cloudcuckoolander, very playful, endlessly talkative, tends to joke a lot, and very much the opposite of what she seems. |
- The entire Troper Tales page for Biggus Dickus, starting with the very first line: Any guy who posts anything about himself on this page is a liar.
- In the same vein, the Troper Tales I Call Him "Mister Happy" page. The whole thing is hilarious, but this exchange really stands out:
I was inspired by this page to give mine a name. I have decided on Odin,for reasons that are easily speculated.
—Ooh, ooh, Huginn and Muninn! ...Dear god, I just enthusiastically christened another man's balls.
|
- Also, the troper who calls his "Boris". Another troper then remarks "Boris?" First troper: "Why not?"
- Certain examples from Troper Tales Epic Fail. To be specific:
- The story about entering the Batcave in Arkham Asylum.

- Found on the Fetish Fuel page for Fullmetal Alchemist:
* Two words: TINY MINISKIRTS!
|
- From the Fetish Fuel page for Zelda:
* I like to imagine what Link, Zelda, and Midna did at the end of The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess after the final battle.
|
- From the Fetish Fuel page for Hellsing:
* This troper has a major fetish for long hair. Forget Alucard, Pip was driving her up the wall.
|
- From the Troper Tales pages for Acceptable Nationality Targets:
* And of course, this Antarctican troper is completely ignored. Send some sadism my way, tropers!
|
- This gem from Troper Tales Big Lipped Alligator Moment:
* This troper and his cousin had talked about going to the premiere of Revenge of the Fallen dressed as a Heavy/Medic pair, telling everyone that we were there to see the "TF2 movie". This was back before the official title was revealed and it was just referred to as Transformers 2, and we didn't bother to go through with it once the acronym didn't work anymore. |
- The Troper Tales for Rule 34 have made many tropers laugh uncontrollably, for varying reasons. Some find the idea that someone, somewhere is getting off on cartoon porn is amusing, others say it's the other tropers and their subsequent horror of what can be pornified that's hilarious.
- This particular example is especially funny:
This Troper has seen Lazy Town porn. How I wish I hadn't.
|
- As is this one:
"This Troper once saw a picture of Princess Peach being raped by a unicycle with three penises, one of which was painted as a clown, one of which was painted as Mario, and one of which was painted as a ninja. Ugh." |
- The Troper Tales section for Gargle Blaster. Especially the creation of the Screaming Crackwhore.
So for want of a better name, since we took something nasty and made it good with Coke... The Screaming Crackwhore. |
- This little gem from the Phineas and Ferb Troper Tales page:
* This Troper's sister works at Disney World. On a recent trip down to visit I found myself finding P&F references at every opportunity. She'd only seen an episode or two and didn't understand most of the running gags so as the week went on she got increasingly annoyed at me cracking jokes at everything, including the fact that of all the merchandise they sell, I couldn't find the plush Perry that I wanted. In a Fridge Brilliance moment when I got home, I realized I had spent the last 6 days driving my sister insane. |
- The "are you me?" Running Gag on the Troper Tales page for Covert Pervert.
- From the Too Dumb to Live Troper Tales:
* This troper's sister has a host of Too Dumb to Live moments. She once asked what a baseball team, passenger train, and airport were.
|
- From the Troper Tales page for Beware the Nice Ones:
* Arguably, this Troper is probably the youngest of which who suffers from this Trope. This is practically the invisible label that's under the invisible Berserk Button of this 13-year old kid. He broke 33 pencils in his life, and had a good friend break two of those pencils because they were too hard. He even yelled at someone because that guy was the third person who asked if he could be punched for the third time, with a teacher only a mile ahead!

- This line from the Silent Hill Perverse Sexual Lust page is TV Tropes Made of Win Archive:
This Troper knows she's actually an Eldritch Abomination, but he would fuck Maria from Silent Hill 2 until she hates her pussy. |
- This bit from the Getting Crap Past the Radar Troper Tales page:
* This troper had an 11th grade English teacher way back in 2001 who was a few months from retirement. He didn't censor his mouth, he showed us R-rated movies without permission slips - his excuse? "What's the worst they can do, FIRE ME?".

- This image suggestion for Impaled Palm had this troper in giggle fits for 10 straight minutes.
- This forum discussion. Since it's discussing FATAL, there's need for regular Brain Bleach, but the concentrations of sarcasm, schadenfreude, and Running Gags is extremely hilarious.

Charlatan: Mighty Anonym boldsizing his Jesus bit in his signature rubs me the wrong way. |
- This forum disscusion (ITT: We are in a Slasher Movie) certainly looks like it is starting to belong here.
- On December 28, 2010, the day after it was announced the It Just Bugs Me! forum was shutting down, SPACETRAVEL gave us a jumble of various recurrent topics, under the title "It's not funny anymore.":
First of all, I'm going to assume that you already understand that adaptations are never better than the originals, but to the point: |
It's not cute, it's not sympathetic, it doesn't make you any more of a catboy, so cut it out. I hate it when people abuse their senses of humor this way, thinking their jokes are harmless and affectionate when they're really dehumanizing those nearest and dearest to them by doing shit like this. When you talk that way about your friends, you may not know it, but it sounds to me like you're saying they ought to put on your jammies. Dorm etiquette, man. Learn it, and someday, you might be able to support your own health care. |
Besides, the crude style of comedy in question went out of style in the 30s. Yep, even in the Great Depression, when resources were tight, a whole form of entertainment was spent—because it just wasn't funny. I'm anticipating objections from the "FDR and the Atheists did Fetishes" crowd, and I challenge them to: |
* One: explain to me why they think such a conspiracy, if there was one, was such a bad thing.
|
As well, it's blatantly camp homophobic. The use of only heterophones in the the centrally important iambic pentameter section to the exclusion of even the homophones that would be more concise and versatile additions to the song betrays a structure built to make a statement against people attracted to the same sex. And it's not even funny. I've been more amused by arguments about abortion, so I am for both women and men having the legal right to abort this fallacy. Death of the Author with a vengeance. |
And worst of all, it's just lazy writing. Put some thought and time into your work and give us some sound quality that doesn't smell like pot. People with asthma will thank you. Transcend the Fan Dumb. |
Oh, and inb4 "What are you talking about?" and "What is 'it'?" I know what I'm talking about, and if you don't, maybe you should take a look at yourself. Maybe you should stop it, because it's not funny anymore. |
Hastily added expression of hope that I do not get banned for this. Lie that the thread is a self-demonstrating Headscratchers about performance art, which actually doesn't bug me at all. Series of too many apologies. |
How many threads can you find in this jumble? |
- This suggestion from one troper to another on worldbuilding.
Get drunk. Get pen. See what happens. |
- This attempt by tropers to make the memetastically cheesy lines from Star Fox 64 more verbose. I could start listing these comedic gems, but we'd be here all day if I did so.
- The following from the Lady Gaga Discussion page:
Do we need a Lady Gaga Music Video Drinking Game? Of course we do. These are the ones a friend and I came up with. |
- This forum thread. It's the only discussion I've seen which starts out complaining about an upcoming movie, then turns into an assassination plot.
- User:AMNK's edit reason when deleting some first person stuff on the Iron Maiden (Music)/Awesome Music page:
Don't put yourself in examples. You are not a trope. |
- You can find some pretty hilarious things that Tropers have dreamed here. For example, a troper's dream about Princess Celestia and jelly beans.
Had one weird dream last night... I was watching Darkwing Duck and it just went off. The next show was on, and there were aliens that invaded lizard cavemen. (One of them even sounded like DW.) Anyway, the aliens wanted hair that was growing on the cavemen for no apparent reason. After they got enough of their hair, and some of their scales, they began eating them, which in turn merged all of them into one giant smiling jellybean. The jellybean then exploded into tons of other jellybeans, and who emerged from the jellybean explosion? |
- The YKTTW that launched Dada Comics. The troper hivemind took a blank YKTTW and ran with it.
i think we have something here, i'm gonna launch it |
Left Fielder
The Left Fielder page in its entirety: Tropers take Self-Demonstrating Article Up to Eleven. It's all gone now, because some people thought it was useless. So here it is, reproduced in all its glory:
- Deliberate Left Fielders are common on image boards such as 4chan, where they will generally announce their presence with the cry "Thread Hijack!" (Or if on /m/, "Trombe Override!")
- There are the people who start a thread where the "image is not related". In such cases it's very easy for the discussion to be about the image posted rather than the intended topic.
- Boring or unpopular topics on some Game FAQs boards would often be deliberately derailed with the fad phrase "This topic sucks and is now about trains". A good 50% of the time, people would then start discussing trains for a while before the topic died.
- One of the first topics made after the announcement of the train-themed The Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks was "This game sucks and is now about trains... oh wait."
- A phenomenon specific to the "Anime & Manga: Adult Swim Action" board is to label a topic with "Can any [as] action character (insert blank)" with the real topic being about the (insert blank) (or not even about that). This is done in order to insert off-topic topics into the board that would otherwise be deleted.
- Infamous on Usenet was Jabriol, a borderline incoherent idiot obsessed with evolution to the extent that he could turn any topic, any topic at all, into a diatribe on how evolution was evil. His most typical behavior was to get into a forum related to some form of human tragedy (rape victim support fora, spouse abuse survivors, etc.), then post about how evolutionists strongly favor whatever horror the members of said forum had experienced. Last encountered trying to argue evolutionists loved it when people killed themselves for reasons only clear to him.
- Is it bad that I can guess what that train of thought was?
- I read a sci-fi book once (I'll put the name when I remember it), where the kids of people genetically enhanced not to need sleep were so smart, they thought and communicated in a series of complex webs. This made their conversations appear to be nothing BUT Left Fielders to anyone NOT these kids. It took me several chapters to figure out what the parents' problem with this was, ie MOST people must not think like this. I find that state of affairs mildly disturbing, and boring. And now, pie!
- This troper, who has Aspergers Syndrome, has experienced this first-hand... Sometimes I will make connections that other people won't, which makes them very confused, and makes me seem like a Left Fielder (I seldom have this problem talking with other Aspergians).
- This troper ain't an Aspergian (...probably) but he does the exact same thing. It gets hilarious when I recount the exactly train track of thought when someone asks how I thought of something and it's an eight-track-jump process.
- alt.fan.pratchett runs on this. If a thread's been going for more than 10 posts and hasn't spawned a discussion about beer, something has gone wrong. If it's been going for more than 10 posts and is still about the works of Terry Pratchett, it's a sign of the apocalypse. (Or, possibly, that there's a new book out).
- On that note, I declare this trope to now be about baseball.
- In addition to his left field work, Rickey Henderson set records for runs scored and bases stolen that remain intact to this day.
- He was a skilled player.
- Or he had superpowers.
- Baseball sucks, let's talk about pennies.
- Did you know the Abe Lincoln penny was the first U.S. coin minted with a president's likeness?
- FROG-BLAST THE VENT CORE! Let's see what that stirs up...
- Bob Jam? Apply Grenades liberally.
- USE BOMBS WISELY!
- I prefer sticky grenades.
- Made of win. Marathon is awesome.
- ROBIN WILLIAMS!!1112344
- Do you mind? We were TRYING to discuss baseball!
- Have you noticed that a lot of vampires from the 70s look like Jesus?
- Or Richard Roundtree.
- Well, Jesus did rise from the dead, so maybe they're trying abstract symbolism. The second one, it's just being one bad mother.
- Maybe they are trying to confuse the real Jesus?
- Gary Oldman once played Dracula.
- James Gordon versus Dracula. Discuss.
- Gordon, all the way.
- Dracula dies at the end, whereas GORDON'S ALIVE!
- Talking about fire and facehuggers, those burning Poison Headcrabs from Half Life are scary.
- James Gordon versus Dracula. Discuss.
- Um, guys? Whales?
- Are the Beatles really a 70's band?
- No. They're not even a '70s band.
- Well technically you could call them a 50's band, seeing as they were originally called the Quarrymen, who were from 1957 which evolved into the Beatles in 1959.
- Nope, not even then. The Quarrymen were a '50s band, but never a 50's band. Learn your apostrophes.
- No. They're not even a '70s band.
- Wasn't this supposed to be about Whales During the Time of Christ, or something?
- ...um...a whale can hear through its lower jaw.
- THE LAST OF THE STAR WHALES!
- I'm telling you, Led Zepplin was better than The Beatles!
- Was not.
- Hitler!
- Godwin's Law can't be evoked, silly - it has to form by itself. ^_^
- Only a Nazi-sympathizer would say that!
- Yup, you got me; I think the winners wrote history to defame WW 2-era Germany.
- Only a Nazi-sympathizer would say that!
- Do you know who else liked Led Zepplin? Hitler.
- Godwin's Law can't be evoked, silly - it has to form by itself. ^_^
- Y'ever been so bored you've set yourself on fire?
- Only once. Good times.
- I set pencils on fire once. It made the room smell awful.
- No, I only do it when I need to make sure ninjas don't catch me.
- Only once. Good times.
- I prefer clawing holes in my head.
- TV Tropes is better than boredom.
- Seriously, guys... baseball? So how about them Dodgers, huh?
- I don't follow baseball. So I don't know what I'm doing here.
- Video game example: the Love Point's "Do you remember love?" and pretty much everything the Turning Point says in Immortal Defense. (I'm a genius! What's more outta left field than putting a serious example in an article about left-fielders?)
- 42.
- Every time a thread over at Fandom Wank gets out of hand, the discussion always turns to how sexy Alan Rickman is.
- Or boobies.
- ...uh, wasn't this thread about people who jump in with random topics?
- Damn it why did they remove that running gag on the Chain of Deals entry about the red paperclip trade, I LIKED that gag!
- That reminds me-! Three vampires walk into a bar...
- ...and then Van Helsing says, "And that's how you make a bloodless Mary."
- How sexy is Alan Rickman?
- Screw Justin Timberlake, Rickman's the one bringing sexy back.
- Isn't he the guy who plays Sev in the HP movies? I'm writing a lot of HP fanfiction, my latest ones have centered around good ol' Sevvy. I've been getting really good grades when I turn in my fanfics in English class. I need to bring up my GPA. Did you know Turk in Tarzan was female? I totally didn't know that for YEARS, now she's my favourite Disney female. Pocahontas really sucks, I used to like it but then I read up on the real Pocahontas and I'm mad. Susan B. Anthony would be ashamed of modern-day feminists. How did I get from Alan Rickman to Susan B. Anthony?
- Alan Rickman can impregnate by touch alone.
- Would you like to hear a funny story about tomatoes? In stores, they're located in the vegetable department, even though they're really fruit.
- Tomatoes are vegetables so they can be taxed! The man is milk even more money out of us! Fight the power!
- The man is milkING even more money out of us!
- Tommytoes. Say "Tommytoes."
- Tomatoes are vegetables so they can be taxed! The man is milk even more money out of us! Fight the power!
- Boobies.
- With that, I add Busen Memo to this GeekList.
- I hate birds.
- I shoot birds at the airport.
- Corn is good food.
- Corn is no place for a mighty warrior!
- I actually like popcorn.

- Stop saying that!
- I want to show you a piece of my mind.
- Remember that guy who tied helium balloons to a lawn chair and traveled several thousand feet into the sky on it? Also, why does everything fall apart?
- Because you touch yourself at night.
- That's irrelevant. Also, they have irrelephants at the circus. Lots of irrelephants.
- Wasn't the lawnchair guy Rhys Ifans or something? Or was he in the movie about it? And isn't he the same guy as David Thewlis? Also, what ever happened to Paul Henreid? He was in Casablanca but I haven't seen him in anything else.
- Because you touch yourself at night.
- Man, I remember when this Wiki was actually about TV Tropes, and when you started a discussion, by golly, you either stayed on topic or somehow tied it to Doctor Who or Firefly.
- I bet Big Boss could take on The Doctor.
- In combat, or in sexiness?
- Yes.
- That would be every fanfic writer's dream.
- Which Doctor?
- In combat, or in sexiness?
- You've been left on your own, like a rainbow in the dark
- Metal Gear Gekko looks retarded.
- Speaking of geckos, how many of you who own one or more motor vehicles are paying more than you ought to be paying for car insurance?
- Straight from the gecko.
- Seriously guys, what's the deal with airplane food?
- I wouldn't know. Unless I'm terribly mistaken, they don't give you food on airplanes at all any more. Not even peanuts, which were the best part.
- Yes they do. Well, they do on the airline we used for our trip to Mexico, anyways.
- Southwest does. Unless someone calls the airline ahead of time and says they're allergic. Then they'll serve pretzels. Speaking of pretzels, how relaxing is yoga?
- I wouldn't know. Unless I'm terribly mistaken, they don't give you food on airplanes at all any more. Not even peanuts, which were the best part.
- Peanuts was a good comic. Got boring sometimes.
- Then some kid got allergic to it, died, and ruined it for everyone else.
- Charlie Brown's an asshole!
- Yeah, but I don't think Snoopy handed out airline food on his flights against the Red Baron.
- ChUnKy or smooth peanut butter? Also, why is chocolate poisonous to dogs?
- Wouldn't it be cool if Alan Rickman had been on Firefly?
- YES.
- Y'know, I'm usually polite enough to wait for a break in the conversation to change the topic. Bunch of unmannered pricks. I also know someone who will try to introduce a topic (usually one of his favorite video games or Transformers) right in the middle of a discussion. Exactly how did Left 4 Dead remind you of Transformers, again? It's damn annoying, but I'm too polite to tell him to stop doing this.
- Speaking of baseball, cricket. I suppose the equivalent of left field in cricket might be "cow corner", as it's kind of the same area of the field from the point of view of a right-handed batsman. It's sort of between midwicket and square leg, for those who don't know, and it's the traditional destination of a good old-fashioned slog (when a batsman just looks to clobber the ball as hard as they can without any thought as to technique).
- Baseball was invented as a game for British schoolgirls to play while the boys played cricket. True story.
- There aren't that many crickets where I live. Sometimes you hear them, though * chirp, chirp* . Also, who's ever seen a potato bug / mediterannean beetle? Big, ugly lil' bastards, ain't they? Riftworm.
- I'm so proud... I was the one who successfully derailed a trope page. -tear- [1]
- Anyone torn open a laptop for shits and giggles? I have.
- You know what? I like Tomo, I don't care what anyone says.
- Who the hell is that?
- Why aren't there any bears in Finland?
- They are damn good at hiding. Especially polar bears. And damn are they sneaky! I know a kid who almost got eaten by one! They really should start hunting them, but noooo.
- I'm beginning to think you guys just don't want to talk about whales...
- Go look up Ambulocetus. That thing was neat. It was a whale with feet. Hey, I rhyme!
- Have you ever noticed how a lot of anime from the '70s look like vampires?
- How can a leek cure anything when it's the nastiest food in the world?
- Only on St. Crispin's Day.
- That Bridget chick, she's one hot babe.
- Who created the universe, Shinji Ikari or Haruhi Suzumiya?
- Ooh, fancomics! Chess Piece is particularly awesome. It involves mostly Danny Phantom and then at least one character from almost every Nicktoon ever made. Doug's the urban planner, Cat Dog's a fashion designer (or rather Cat is) Oblina is a nurse, Iroh is Vlad's good friend and even Dora the Explorer has a cameo of sorts, which involves a stolen Swiper doll and will likely tramatize that girl for life. Phantom is Ax Crazy and for some reason, I thought it was funny as hell. Plus it quotes a lot of stuff... like Beatles and Buffy. Neo Yi is truely awesome.
- Something I've always wondered: if someone gives you a penny for your thoughts, and you proceed to put your two cents in, where did the extra money come from?
- Inflation.
- I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a bunny with a pancake on its head.
- Hey gaiz how about that Lampshade Hanging huh?
- Eh, it clashes with the Drapes.
- HG Wells made drapes a lot.
- Doesn't everyone think underwear is awesome?
- Don't forget to watch our awesome TV show!!
- Is a Barrel Roll or a Rickroll a better defence against Furry Fandom In Space? They keep setting us up the bomb.
- Use fire. It's easier.
- Hey, shut the %)(& up! We're people, too! And man... is a feeling creature.
- In my experience, rat poison works pretty well. Although now I want to combine the two... rat poison on fire? Or maybe just go straight to the napalm. I love that gasoline smell.
- Have you ever noticed how much vampires look like vampires?
- Please, try to keep up.
- I know. It really surprises me how I just watched the old Dracula movie and he doesn't sparkle and wear a beige leather jacket and tight, sleeveless button-down like Edward. And have you noticed how a lot of people seem to hate thinking that maybe the real reason why they can't get in any relationships unlike Bella and Edward is because they snub the guy who's stalking them and watching out for them while they sleep instead of learning to love them?
- Good old Edward. Always running around in his waistcoat, killing people who aren't local, and saying "What's all this shouting?"
- Or is he the Mad Artist werewolf with the bullet in his head? No wait, that was Eddie. Never mind.
- Isn't Twilight that thing with Rod Sterling and all the twist endings? Or is it Rod Serling? I can never remember.
- Oh hey, I'm not late, am I?
- LAST POST!
- LAST POST AGAIN!
- Last Post is a fun trumpet piece, because you don't have to use the valves at all. It's all in the lip, people.
- Derail. This thread is now about kittens.
- FUCK YES, KITTENS!
- Brawl in The Family fans: try reading the page for Hostile Show Takeover without laughing. In fact, try it anyway.
- Uh, to get this entry back on topic, the Urban Legends Reference Pages forum has an "Unhijackable Thread" where every new post must Left Field the previous one. And, with that said, may I ask what is the best way to attach the granny squares together for this afghan I'm making? Granny circles, for that matter?
- My granny only circles when she's had too much to drink. Speaking of that, what's your favorite type of drink?
- (Granny)^2 = Graham cracker.
- They made a horror movie called Rabid Grannies. Just thought I'd mention it.
- ...TheAristocrats!

- My cat likes to tear apart my hands. It's so cute! <3
- Guys, my house is on fire. What should I do?
- Put it out with a vampiric anime Jesus whale. From the 70s.
- Alternately, from the '70s. Learn to use apostrophes, people.
- Put it out with a vampiric anime Jesus whale. From the 70s.
- Guys, I just accidentally set a glass of water on fire with a match. What should I do?
- Don't worry, I got you covered:

- 2. Ask for Battletoads on any system.
- 3. DO A BARREL ROLL
- Start a cult. Make them do it for you.

- I think we should reference Cloudcuckoolander in this article. Thoughts?
- The Cuckoo? She tired to kill me! I demand her life in forfeit!
- I like clouds. And weren't Cuckoos in that game that all the fangirls like?
- They're spelled cuccos. CUCCOS! GET IT RIGHT! How dare you defile the GREATEST GAME EVER by making a minor error?
- Speaking of fangirls defiling a game...
- This one time, I flew over the cuckoo's nest. Wait a second... cuckoos don't have nests!
- Speaking of fangirls. Jesus has them. They're called Nuns. Think about that...
- In a chaste way, sure.
- I tried to think about it, but for some reason, I thought about the Grim Reaper, who is the exact opposite of a nun.
- I beg to differ.

Like those people that get on every news article about Obama and then bring up his birth certificate, regardless of the original topic of the article? Oh well, I guess not. So anyway, why isn't Puerto Rico a state yet? And btw, Firefly totally rocks. The previous troper is obviously a moron that enjoys bad television.

- I hate it when the pants are dead D:

- I wonder what fire tastes like...
- The RIPE Program was so cold. So cruel.
- Derail. This trope is now about train derailments.
- Train derailments are a fertilizing rather than a destructive event.
- Your derailments cannot harm me, are you a fucking ass? Do you not know who I am, he must not know who I am, I'M THE JUGGERNAUT BITCH, IMA HITCHA WITCHYO OWN TRAIN! I'm bad, I'm the badder motherfucker on the word.
- Well, I love the Power Glove. It's so bad.
- I'm a 12.0 on the 10.0 scale of badness!
- Okay, Edgar. Now drop a train on him.
- Traveling by train is fun, but you can't cross the ocean. To do that you need either a plane or a ship.
