This Trope Is X

These tropes are easy to use. Just fill in the X, and BAM, instant recognition.

In some circles, these kind of "fill-in-the-blank cliches" are called "Snowclones" (with the "Trope Namer" being the various clones of "Eskimos have 100 words for snow" ).

Not to be confused with This Trope Is Bleep.
