I also found a page about no bikes in the apocalypse, what about the opposite.
:First, what exactly was "No Place For A Juvenile" about? As for "That's a Paddin", I think it needs a better name but I don;t think it already exists. As for "Everyone Without Exception", you might want to look around and make sure it doesn't already exist, but otherwise it's a good idea.

Well, "No Place For A Juvenile" was about setting where juvenile, often teenagers but pre-teens as well, are discriminated against in a form due to their age. Teenage Wasteland sometimes overlaps this because life for teenagers aren't made any easier. A real life form of this is known as Adultism and it has appeared in many works, dystopias like "The Program" by Suzanne Young and "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins, but it also can appear in works that aren't listed as dystopian but have that type of element like "Kids in America".
"That's A Paddin" - is a working title but the trope names comes from the Simpsons episode "The PTA Disbands" where Jasper was telling Lisa's class how "he'll" control things but he ultimately doesn't follow through.
"Everyone Without Exception" isn't an official trope yet, but it has been seen in works like "Judge" comics where even the Judges are subjected to same laws they enforce. The name of the working trope comes from an episode of ''[[Doug]]'', '''Doug Battles The Rulemeister''', where Mr. Bone answers the question title character asks after Bone takes his comics, claiming they violated only to be remain... he's fair game.

:Okay, those sound like valid tropes. I suggest heading over to the [[Trope Workshop]] and creating pages for those tropes and work on them for a little bit. If you come up with a better name for the second trope, you can move the page (keep it in the Trope Workshop namespace) to another name, and make sure you uncheck the box for leaving a redirect, unless you are ready to launch the trope (get some opinions on it from the community if you can first), then just move it to the main namespace.

There's a trope they have but missing here... last respects. Now, I know it's under BY-NC-SA when it was made, but how about one for here built from scratch? Oh yeah, I finally got one of the new tropes going, but I screwed up on the title.

:Anything created from scratch is fine. Also, you can always move the page to a new name when you're ready to launch it. [[User:GethN7|GethN7]] ([[User talk:GethN7|talk]]) 19:53, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
Question: Shouldn't "That's a Paddin" be "That's a Paddlin'"? Or is that part of the Simpson's reference, punning on "paddling"?
Oh, and while we're talking new tropes, I have a list of pages to write, but I figure I'll share the trope ideas from it in case anyone wants to jump on them before I do. In no particular order:
* [[Trope Workshop:Prison Planet|Prison Planet]]
* [[Trope Workshop:There's An App For That|There's An App For That]]
* [[Trope Workshop:Doctor Denton Pajamas|Doctor Denton Pajamas]] - 30 years old and you still have a flap over your bottom when you go to bed.
* [[Trope Workshop:Filing Their Nails|Filing Their Nails]] - When a female character, particularly in a period piece, is bored or umimpressed.
* [[Trope Workshop:Spending Time In A Sanitarium|Spending Time In A Sanitarium]] - [[Dead Horse Trope]], maybe even a [[Forgotten Trope]]: instead of going into therapy, characters who had mental breakdowns in old movies spent six months or a year in a Sanitarium and came out good as new. Classic example: Jim Hardy (Bing Crosby) in ''[[Holiday Inn]]'' did this in between two scenes early in the movie.

Oh, one more I forgot to put in the file and thus that list:
* [[Trope Workshop:Faking Use of the Twin|Faking Use of the Twin]]: From the original ''Parent Trap'' to today, using camera tricks to put an actor on screen with himself.

I been working on two of the tropes at the workshop, but it'll be a long time before any of them will be ready for launch... mostly on the one about juveniles. A better name was found but there are still kinks they'll still need. It's to make sure it's made clear for any troper finds, which is welcome. I also started about the one on the [[Trope Workshop:Older Than The Web| Internet]] since I noticed works that were created after TV. Just like with the "[[Trope Workshop:No Place for Any Adolescent| No Place]]" trope it's yet to be launch... --[[User:Beta Log 86|Beta Log 86]] ([[User talk:Beta Log 86|talk]]) 20:50, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
