Bottomless Bladder/Playing With
Basic Trope: A character runs non-stop through his/her to-do list...which does not include mundane tasks like eating, drinking, using the toilet, changing clothes, etc.
- Played Straight: Bob kills a bunch of Mooks, saves the princess, and defeats the Big Bad without taking a break.
- Exaggerated: The amount of time covered in doing the above tasks? A month.
- Inverted:
- Bob's to-do list is use the toilet, shower, change clothes, have lunch, etc.
- A lá FATAL, Bob is capable of urination without a drop of fluid in his body.
- Justified: The amount of time it takes for Bob to complete his quests is relatively short (an hour or less)
- Subverted: Bob decides to take a bathroom break after rescuing Princess Alice
- Double Subverted: But then decides it wouldn't be proper to pee in front of a lady and decides to hold it.
- Deconstructed: Bob suffers from a rare condition in which he simply does not feel hunger, thirst, or urges to use the bathroom.
- Reconstructed: His body has adapted to this condition, so even after it's cured, he still doesn't need to do those things very often.
- Parodied: Bob stores his unneeded belongings in his kitchen and bathroom, since he rarely uses either of those rooms.
- Lampshaded: "Shouldn't we take a break?"
- Averted:
- Bob takes breaks on his quest.
- The quest is a very short quest; there shouldn't be any need to take a break in the middle.
- Enforced: Bladder of Steel
- Invoked: The player behind Bob is playing for hours
- Defied: See "Averted"
- Played For Laughs:
- Played For Drama:
