Save the Day Turn Away is not the thing common in Toku fights where after the enemy is defeated, the heroes turn towards the camera and pose dramatically while the enemy explodes behind them.
Scrappy Level is not about a character's relative level of obnoxiousness, nor is it a natural consequence of a Scooby Doo video game forcing you to play as every character. (Although that may happen anyway...)
Senseless Violins has nothing to do with the music from the much-parodied Psycho shower scene, nor with violins being played without there being a point for them, nor about unconscious musical instruments. Musical instruments in a nearly-unusable tuning aren't it, either.
Sentai is not those Japanese cartoons you find in the Adult section of a video store.
Sentimental Graffiti is a Works Page, not a trope about people writing their initials and the initials of the one they love on a desk, wall, or tree. (That's Sweetie Graffiti.)
Sequel Hook is not about a sequel to the movie where Robin Williams is a grown up Peter Pan. (It's already a sequel on its own anyway.) It's not a particular type of hooked pole used to grab particularly bad sequels, either (however, we may need those).
Making something Serious Business will not make the Joker ask its practitioners "Why So Serious"? At least we hope so...
Settings has nothing to do with option menus in video games.
Settled for Gay is not what happens when someone's so fed up with their lack of success with the opposite gender that they decide to try their luck with the same sex instead.
Slap SlapKiss Kiss Bang Bang is not a single trope about extremely violent or unusually fast-paced romantic relationships.
Slash Command is not the "basic attack" command for a swordsman in an RPG, nor is it an order from the dominant half of a slash pairing. Also has nothing to do with Macintosh keyboard shortcuts.
Smoke Out is not about flushing dem terrorists out of their hiding places by filling it with smoke. Nor is it a reminder that you're not allowed to smoke inside.
So Okay It's Average is not somebody uttering a bored comment that that a work piece is relatively adequate, such as saying "So, okay, it's AVERAGE." (It is actually a subjective rating simply meaning that a work is not horrible or awesome but "just okay".)
A Space Master is not about a kung-fu mentor in outer space. It's also not about someone who's become very good at organizing things in a container, unless it becomes supernatural.
Space Whale only has to do with outer space, not inner space, Myspace, or the space bar on a keyboard.
Nor is it what you might see if a hypothetical merger of Myspace and Twitter was over capacity.
Alien MDMA tabs would be an example of Space X, but they're not specifically what the trope is about.
Nor is it about Elon Musk's rocket company.
Spam Attack has nothing to do with canned lunchmeat, possibly unless you end up fighting in a supermarket. Nor does it have anything to do with the Spam song. Neither does it have to do with how the Big Bad of the first Digimon movie was weakened. On a more serious note, it is about attacks that hit many times, not reusing one attack many times over.
It also has nothing to do with a Troll bombarding an internet forum with spam.
Spell Construction has nothing to do with spelling the word "construction".
Spin to Deflect Stuff is not another way of saying Do A Barrel Roll. It also has nothing to do with how politicians evade answering inconvenient questions.
A Spin-Off is not a trope about how cordless drills were first developed for astronauts or that sort of stuff.
It's not a political public-relations contest.
And it's certainly not something the alternate future version of Simon would say to halt Gurren Lagann's attacks.
A Spirit Bomb is nearly the polar opposite of a Molotov cocktail.
Static Stun Gun does not refer to stun guns that aren't even animated when used and thus look like the wielder is too stupid to activate it before using. Nor does it refer to stun weapons that don't have any visible effect in the first place.
Status Quo Is God is not meant to imply that the band behind "Rockin' All Over The World" are worthy of worship. They're good, but not that good. Nor is it sucking up to the fictional rapper in the show Off Center.
Staying Alive is not about disco music, dancing, John Travolta, or really outdated dancing fads.
The Stealth Mentor does not silently sneak up on people, grab them from behind, then whisper advice in their ears before fading back into the shadows.
Nor is he a wise old ninja who trains heroes in the art of invisibility.
Sticks to the Back doesn't involve the old trick of poking someone with a stick while bluffing that it's a gun. Nor is it beating people up with cricket bats. Nor does it have anything to do with putting the White and Black Mages and Squishy Wizards in the back of the party so they take less damage.
Stocking Filler is not about those tchotchkes generally only bought as small gifts, that nobody would actually ever use for anything.
Stock Parodies are not parodies about preparing a food in flavored water.
"Stop Having Fun!" Guys is not the ungrammatical plea from a little sibling for your mother to stop cooking mushrooms.
Nor is it a sentence that could be followed up with "and start getting bored".
Nor is it a plea against the proliferation of useless characters in Chrono Cross.
Story-Breaker Power is not the same as Living Lie Detector, and doesn't usually have to do with the ability to automatically see through false alibis either.
Nor is it an unusual storage container for sweets, or the bowl the sugar cubes are put in at a cafe.
Super Breeding Program is not about eugenics programs where supers are encouraged to have lots of children.
A Super Couple is not a pair of romantically-involved superheroes.
A Super Gender Bender is not when a male changes to something beyond female or when a female changes to something beyond male or about someone turning into a hyperbole of the opposite gender. It is also not about someone going from a regular gender to a Super Gender.
Super Punk Octo Pudding Gas Mark Seven is not about an octopus with a mohawk whose pudding-induced flatulence propels him faster than a fighter jet. Nor is it the seventh version of an eight-legged Humongous Mecha powered by highly filling puddings. Nor is it about... well, it would be quicker to just say that any possible meaning you could wring out of those seven words would have nothing whatsoever to do with that article. That's the entire point.
Surprise Tropes is not an alternative name for the random button.
You do not get Survivor Guilt after the contestant you bitched about for 6 weeks is voted off the island. Neither is it feeling your participation in a Survivor season to be an Old Shame.
Also doesn't refer to someone who is the only survivor because he killed everyone else.
Sweater Girl does not mean that sweaters have genders. Nor is it a name for a joke hero or villain in a Comic Book.
Technopath is about neither technology-obsessed psychopaths, paths of technological development, nor anyone who just loves that electronic-sounding dance-party music. Nor is it about someone who hates machines to the point of becoming violent and irrational around them. It is also not about a trail that will lead you to the Lost Technology.
That Man Is Dead is not a needless declaration by Captain Obvious, made for the benefit of his team mates, after having just shot an adversary in the face.
The Power of Rock is not a trope about the type advantages of using only Rock-type Pokemon in battle. It's not about how strong the Gym Leader in the anime that trains Rock-type Pokemon is, either; that would be "The Power Of Brock".
There Is No God is something characters say when an event makes them lose their faith (or claim to). It's not about universes that are known to not have a God, or about characters that are atheists to begin with.
Thundraphobia, the old name for Fear of Thunder, is not a fear of the Marvel character, although that fear would not be unreasonable. Nor is it a fear of the Thundercats' homeworld; that's Thundera. Sadly, these two fears caused the page to be renamed, as these were far scarier than starships and sauropods.
It also wasn't fear of the phoenix character from the Aladdin series. Though there were some episodes where fear of her would make sense.
Timeline-Altering MacGuffin is not about items containing infallible predictions about the future that people use to get rich quick by placing their bets accordingly.
Toasted Buns is not about cinamonny breakfast food.
Tron Lines is not about the particular style of dialog in Tron.
Nor is it an alternative to Lay Lines.
A Troll Fic is not a Homestuck fanfic about the aliens from Alternia, although such a fic can be a Troll Fic.
The MSPA fan community decided to call fan adventures about the aliens from Alternia "trollventures" and fan adventures made to be deliberately offensive "trollingventures" because of that.
Trope-tan does not describe a change in skin tone from spending too much time editing the wiki. But be careful. Neither is it an Unfortunately Named Chinese person.
Subject 101 is not a beginner's class on this site.
