South Park/Tropes E-J: Difference between revisions

* [[For the Evulz]]: Apparently the Mongolians' only motivation for repeatedly destroying sections of the Great City Wall of South Park in "Child Abduction is Not Funny."

* [[For the Funnyz]]

* [[The Freelance Shame Squad]]: When Stan shows up to the class Halloween party dressed up as Raggedy Andy (and Wendy doesn't go through with dressing as Raggedy Ann), Mr. Garrison actually says "Let's all laugh and point at Stan, everyone", and they do.

** When Randy gets a DUI in "Bloody Mary", Mr. Garrison gives a lecture on drunk driving, in which he brings Randy into the classroom to give a half-heated apology speech. Mr. Garrison then berates him quite thoroughly as he addresses the class as Stan hides his face in agonized embarrassment.

* [[From the Mouths of Babes]]: The kids are usually a lot more worldly than one would expect from their age, but other times they are quite innocent.

* [[Fully-Automatic Clip Show]]: When Cartman is not invited to Kyle's birthday party, the latter mentions the times Cartman teased him for being Jewish.

** Sarah Jessica Parker is portrayed as this.

* [[Good Angel, Bad Angel]]: Spoofed in "Ike's Wee-Wee".

* [[Good Girls Avoid Abortion]]: During the [[Stand and Deliver]] episode, one of the students is pregnant but refuses to have an abortion. Cartman convinces her otherwise (since it's "cheating").

** There was also an episode where Cartman's mom wants to abort Cartman and slept with many politicians in order to allow abortions in the 40th trimester. It turns out, however, that she confused "abortion" with "adoption".

* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: Kyle. Seeing some of the conflicts between him and Cartman [[It Makes Sense in Context|out of context]] wouldn't make all that clear that Kyle's supposed to be the good guy.

** This only happens in "Le Petit Tourette", though, in the perspective of the adults. Cartman fakes Tourette's Syndrome to get what he wants, and Kyle, [[Captain Obvious|who's known Cartman all his life]], gets annoyed and says that he doesn't have Tourette's, and an authority figure that hears it accuses Kyle of being a bully and he is taken to observe various kids with Tourette's (with lack of swearing). He is then forced to apologize to Cartman. However, when Cartman plans to bad-mouth Jews, it's the straw that breaks the camel's back, so Kyle devises an elaborate plan that {{spoiler|actually saves Cartman from going in too deep}}.

** {{spoiler|Mintberry Crunch}} uses his abilities to defeat Cthulhu.

* [[Heavy Voice]]: In the second episode, when Cartman gains a lot of weight, his voice gets deeper (and thicker). The same happens to all the boys in "Make Love, Not Warcraft."

* [[Heel Face Revolving Door]]: Cartman has gone from being one of the team to actually being the villain of the episode and back again so many times over the years, he may as well be labeled the poster boy for this trope.

** Cartman will generally do whatever will benefit him at the moment, but there a few episodes where he does something good even when he won't get anything out of it.

* [[Hell of a Heaven]]: Heaven is full of Mormons. This was used to punish Sadam Hussein, actually.

* [[Henshin Hero]]: Bradley Biggle plays this trope straight to become ''Mint Berry Crunch.'' Complete with [[By the Power of Grayskull|a henshin phrase]], [[Clothes Make the Superman|a costume]] influenced by [[Kamen Rider]], and a [[Transformation Sequence]] which is heavily influenced by [[Sailor Moon]].

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: Stan and Kyle, though both Randy and Cartman have questioned the 'heterosexual' part.

* [[He Who Fights Monsters]]: although it's never explicitly shown or mentioned in the show, this trope has been very gradually wearing away at Kyle since the beginning of the series, owing to Cartman's constant verbal, emotional, and psychological abuse. As of now, Kyle has only reached [[Determinator]] status, but his obsession breaks through rather...[[Knight Templar|darkly]] on occasion (eg. ''Ginger Kids'', ''Fatbeard'').

** {{spoiler|That doubles as Fridge Logic/Horror, considering Kenny's immortality. This might have been his attempt to stop the cycle.}}

* [[I See Dead People]]: Or Dead Celebrities.

* [[It Got Worse]]: BP first drills into the ocean and creates another Oil spill. Then they dig again and release monsters from another dimension. They dig into the moon now, can't get worse right? {{spoiler|They release ''Cthulhu.''}}

** Oh cmon, that's total bullshit...everyone knows {{spoiler|Cthulu}} is sealed somewhere in the Atlantic near Antarctica!

* [[Its Always Sunny in Miami|It's Always Snowy in South Park]]

* [[It's Been Done]]: "The Simpsons Already Did It".

* [[Ivy League for Everyone]]

* [[I Was Told There Would Be Cake|I Was Told There Would Be Punch and Pie]]: The kids' lure to get people to join [[La Résistance]].
