{{quote|''"When I was in the second grade, there was this other kid who always used to make fun of me. His name was Stupen Dumbello. I think he was from a foreign country. He was real fat and wore real thick glasses and had a bad complexion. One time after he made fun of me I said to him: "Someday, somebody's going to make fun of you." But I don't think they ever did."''

[[Trope
That is the core meaning of "averted". The writer just went past the trope. He ignored it, he forgot it existed, or it wasn't even a trope at all in his culture.
Line 17 ⟶ 18:
If a trope was never averted in the past but is commonly averted now, you may have an [[Evolving Trope]], [[Cyclic Trope]], or [[Forgotten Trope]].
Even though [[There Is No Such Thing
On the other hand, [[Space Is Noisy]] is so incredibly common in science fiction (especially TV and [[Film]]) that a work that manages to avoid it is worth mentioning. We don't want to have to scroll through examples like:
* Averted in ''[[Harry Potter (
So aversions worth mentioning will generally follow this pattern: A supermajority of works that have element A will also have trope A, but work W has element A without trope A. If the number of aversions on a tropes page consist of at least a third of the examples, perhaps averting the trope isn't as notable as initially thought.
