• High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Full of this stuff, especially towards the end like Ursula shrinking to the size of a fetus, and the last Buendia baby being eaten by ants.
• Memetic Mutation: "Cease, cows! Life is short!"
  • "The earth is round, like an orange."
• Purity Sue: Little Remedios Moscote could be considered one of these. On one hand, she gets a lot of talk of how fantastic she is in her time. On the other, she's not mentioned that much afterwards.
  • So could impossibly-beautiful, impossibly-pure Remedios the Beauty before her disappearance, after which it's noted that some of the family forgot about her a bit too quickly.
    • In this case, her impossible beauty was a bad thing, distracting all of the men and driving them crazy.
    • Not to mention, Remedios's own family save for Colonel Aureliano considered her completely useless because she was just as childish and "stupid" as she was beautiful. So yeah, she was flawed and people aknowledged that.
