[[Trope|Tropes]] are conventions used in storytelling to convey some sort of information to the audience. People Sit On Chairs don't convey any meaning -- they aren't storytelling conventions at all, they're just things that happen normally or incidentally during the storytelling. So if somebody is calling your YKTTW "Chairs", or PSOC, this means they think your idea is about as meaningful as the discovery that various different shows portray [[Title Drop|people sitting on chairs]]: It doesn't matter how commonly it occurs, this is something that never carried any meaning to begin with, making it [[Not a Trope]].
Line 17:
If you are really, really, ''really'' sure that we need this one, try to connect it to something meaningful. If not, you just need to accept that [[Tropes That Will Never Happen|this trope page will never happen.]]
If you're really not sure whether or not your YKTTW is People Sitting On Chairs, try asking "[[Is This Tropable?]]"
See also [[Consistency]] for the other aspect of defining a trope.
