Line 57:
** Of course. [[Villains Never Lie|Why would we lie to you]]?
* [[Meat-O-Vision]] is not how burger ads are filmed.
** Nor is it a new set of goggles made to find cattle.
*** That would explain why [[The Goggles Do Nothing|they do nothing]].
* [[Meddling Parents]] don't need to [[You Meddling Kids|get away with it]], [[Can't Get Away with Nuthin'|and they certainly won't let you, either]].
Line 65:
** And it isn't about someone being the musical successor to Bruce Springsteen.
* [[Mega Manning]] isn't what you get when you use a [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever|growth ray]] on Peyton or Eli. Or on [[Alpha Teens On Machines|Axel]]. No Katies, either.
** It is also not about [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]], [[Mega Man X]], [[Mega Man Legends|Mega Man Volnutt-Trigger]], [[Mega Man Battle Network|MegaMan.EXE]] or [[Mega Man Star Force|Mega Man Geo-Omega]] [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever|growing to a giant size]], though it has to do with them.
** Not is about becoming extremely manly.
*** Yes, [[Testosterone Poisoning|We]] [[Rated "M" for Manly|have]] [[Took a Level In Badass|tropes]] [[Memetic Badass|enough]] as it is.
Line 105:
* [[Milkman Conspiracy]]: If you've read [[Playing with a Trope]], you might think it contains something like "The milkmen are really a front for an ancient conspiracy dedicated to impregnating the world's housewives."
* [[Mind Rape]] is not when a [[Mind Screw]] is forced upon you.
** Nor is it sexual intercourse with a brain.
* [[Mind Screw]] is not [[Mind Rape]], on the same note. Nor is it about an oddly shaped brain, or a tool for removing brains.
** Nor is it a more polite way of referring to a character from ''[[Empowered]]''.
Line 111:
* [[Misaimed Fandom]] is not about people trying to be fans of one series and ending up becoming fans of another. (How do you even ''do'' that?)
** Oh, ve haf our vays.
* [[Miscarriage of Justice]] is not about a female [[Complete Monster]] [[Convenient Miscarriage|losing her baby]].
** Nor is it a miscarriage caused by [[Super Smash Bros.|Captain Falcon's]] [[Memetic Mutation|knee.]]
* [[Misplaced Nationalism]] is not to be confused with [[Mistaken Nationality]], even though the latter does sometimes trigger the former.
* [[Misplaced Wildlife]] is not about animals "liberated" by [[Animal Wrongs Group|PETA]] and released in the wrong habitat afterwards.
Line 142:
** Nor does it have anything to do with the co-hosts of ''[[The Stephanie Miller Show]]''.
** Or [[Transformers Animated|Dirt Boss]]
* [[The Moorcock Effect]] is not the [[Spear Counterpart]] of the [[Scunthorpe Problem]].
* [[Moral Event Horizon]] is not about [[An Aesop|any aesops]] in the film ''[[Event Horizon]]''.
* [[Moral Guardians]] are not a [[Superhero]] team where all the members are [[The Cape (trope)]].
* [[The Moral Substitute]] is not a substitute teacher with high moral standards.
* [[Morph Weapon]] is not what the [[Power Rangers]] beat you up with.
Line 161:
* A [[Multi Part Picture]] is not [[Movie Multipack|a film serial]].
* A [[Multiple Head Case]] is not where the [[Serial Killer]] keeps his trophies.
* That [[Mummy]] is not [[Your Mom|yours]].
* [[Mundanger]] is not the name of a new [[Super Sentai]] series starring boring people.
* [[Murder the Hypotenuse]] is not what a mathematically-incapable [[Book Dumb]] character wants to do before moving on to the rest of the subject.
** Nor is it what [[The World Ends With You|Minamimoto]] does after killing all the "radians".
* [[Musical Gag]] is not how the "serious" film viewer reacts as soon as the first notes of the opening number play.
* A [[Musical Spoiler]] is not telling your friend who hasn't seen ''[[Wicked (theatre)|Wicked]]'' that Elphaba lives.
Line 220:
* [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant]] has nothing to do with [[Tales from the Crypt|the Cryptkeeper]] or Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, having to get a new job.
* A [[Nightmare Sequence]] is not part of the gameplay of a [[Nintendo Hard]] game which motivates [[Sequence Breaking]].
* ''[[The 99]]'' has nothing to do with [http://www.99restaurants.com/ the restaurant],[[Ninety-Nine Nights|Nights]], or [[Jay-Z|the problems of which a woman is not included among]].
* [[Ninja Butterfly|Ninja Butterflies]] are, sadly, not... well... butterflies who are [[Ninja|Ninjas]]. Nor ninjas who use butterflies as shurikens.
* A [[Ninja Log]] is not the logbook of a [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]] Captain's journeys.
Line 227:
** It also has very little in common with a [[Stealth Run]].
* [[Ninja Tropes]] are not appreciably stealthier or deadlier than any other tropes.
* [[Nintendo Hard]] is not about getting a hard-on while playing Nintendo games.
* [[wikipedia:Nipah virus#Nipah virus|Nipah Virus]] will not cause you to become a cute child forced to [[Groundhog Day Loop|relive the same]] [[The Eighties|1980s summers]] [[Alternate Universe|over and over again]].
* [[Nippon Ichi]] is not about [[Fatal Fury|Mai Shiranui]] or her [[Gainaxing|most valuable pair]]. Or Japan being itchy.
