See also TV Tropes Made of Win Archive.

Pages In General

"What did he expect to find in a box marked 'TALBOT'? Immortality?"

Bad Guy Bar -> Bad Gay Bar (There's a better one down the street. Not That There's Anything Wrong with That.)

  • This wiki's page on Zardoz. But then, there's so much to work with. The penis is evil!
    • what about the gun? is that good?
  • This Is Your Premise on Drugs. Before the examples were deleted, that entire page was a CMOF. On laughing gas-laced Mai Tais. With a Viagra chaser.
    • The fact that this trope exists is probably funny enough on it's own.
  • Chekov's Gun. Not too terribly important... yet?
  • Some of the Flat What entires are pretty hilarious.
  • This Is Sparta. The whole page.
  • Who knew Serious Business could be so hilarious?
  • Off-Model is kinda cool.
  • The My Immortal page.
    • The My Immortal drinking game, especially the scoreboard. "Ran out of WATER?!?!!
    • The My Immortal quotes page. Reading all of fictiondom's reactions to this atrocity is paralytically funny.
      • ...which has since been ruined by some idiot claiming that it's not necessary, completely missing the point of this trope. If you want to see the masterpiece in question, it has thankfully been preserved on the discussion page until such time until it can be restored to its proper condition.
  • Oh, Twilight, you never fail to amuse. The Twilight page is one big, fat Crowning Moment of Funny, largely due to the way many of the examples are worded. Also, here's a little something from the Possession Sue page:

Nikki Reed (Rosalie Hale): Knock it off, dad. So, Kristen, there must be something really special about you for Robert to take such a liking to you and risk the lives of his entire family. Tell us about yourself.

Kristen Stewart (Bella Swan): Me? Oh, no. I'm just a hollow placeholder for all of the teenage girls in the audience to project their personalities onto. I have none of my own whatsoever.

Thingy Van Happyperson? L. O. L.

Nynaeve: I'm wearing a green silk dress with slashes of white with snowy white lace in a floral pattern. It has the faces of cherubs sewn into the sides, and the picture of deer running gracefully through a wooded stream in the skirt. It shows generous cleavage.

Elayne: I'm wearing a dark blue silk dress with a pattern of black lace. It has actual thread-of-gold woven into the bodice, telling the story of my childhood, including the part when I skinned my knee trying to climb a leatherleaf tree in Master Hanson's orchard. It shows generous cleavage.

Rita, Queen of Speed: A hydraulic-launched rollercoaster. Very fast.

...And the computer is like "Do I have to spell it out for you? A V.A.M.P.I.R.E.!"
And the girl is like "OH MY GOD!.....THAT IS SO HOT!"

Chester A. Bum, review of Twilight

Images and Captions

Direwolves. Not Snookumspuppywolves. Direwolves.

Their outfits need more frills and lace, don't you think?

Even the forces of good need to keep their pimp hand strong.

And it's on fire. Because ripping out a still-beating heart isn't creepy enough.

Iä! Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Scu'ba Di'ver R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!

I'm sorry, what was that I couldn't hear you over my tragic past.

Hopefully, the Moral Guardians won't be offended by this depiction of a massive cock.

  • The pic and caption for East Germany. The pic is the old flag; the caption... must be seen to be believed.
  • The picture on the Fan-Preferred Couple page.
  • The caption under the picture on the Nice Hat page:

Clearly not a hat to be trifled with.

Who'd have thought putting a nuclear reactor in your chest might have harmful side effects?

Needs MOAR sauce.

Could you... maybe... get a haircut? Please?

I would appreciate your continued attention on the plot. Hello? The plot.

Ursula could fit in one of those.

Alright, who signed me up for Fan Service duty again!?


Trope/Work Descriptions and Stingers

Describe Power Rangers Dino Thunder here.
Tommy is back, bitches.
The End.

Shaggy and Scooby Doo, the Lovable Coward / Big Eater duo from the Scooby Doo franchise branch, out in their own show, where Shaggy inherits millions of dollars and a mansion from his missing Uncle Albert, an inventor. However, Uncle Albert's inventions are being pursued by the sinister Dr. Phineas Phibes and his henchmen. Fortunately, Shaggy and Scooby can thwart their evil plans thanks to special Scooby Snacks that give Scooby-Doo temporary superpowers... Wait, where are you going? Come Back, we weren't finished yet! The villain pilots a submarine laboratory!

It's the progenitor of numerous tropes, from Censor Steam to Godiva Hair, to Modesty Bedsheet, to Modesty Towel, to Scenery Censor, to Naked in Mink, to Barbie Doll Anatomy.
It's the female nipple.

(After a hearse explodes) "I think they were on their way to a funeral."
(After decapitating someone) "He really lost his head."
(After disemboweling someone) "I'll say this for him: he had a lot of guts."
(After tethering someone to a rocket) "He got rather carried away."
(After shooting someone with a harpoon) "I think he got the point."
(After cutting someone in half) "He had to split."
(After throwing someone out a plate glass window) "Smashing."
(After throwing a machete through someone, impaling them to a tree) "Stick around."
(After throwing an electric heater into someone's filled bathtub) "Shocking."
(After ripping someone's heart out) "I always knew you were heartless!"
(After forcing a grenade down someone's throat) "Something he ate disagreed with him."
(After throwing someone to a shark) "He disagreed with something that ate him."
(After slicing off someone's arms with a circular saw, dunking their legs in liquid nitrogen, incinerating their torso with a flamethrower, kicking their charred body into a refrigerator and condemning them to the bottom of the Arctic ocean) "Ouch."

  • It's gone now, but on Vagina Dentata, after the sentence "It would be fucking painful to have your penis bitten off" (or something to that effect), there used to be a "[Citation Needed]" tag. Why, why was it taken from me?
  • The Statler and Waldorf on the Russian Humour page.
  • This gem from the description of Ass in a Lion Skin:

"My God! You're not a fruit bat at all! You're a killer whale!"

The user might be, but isn't necessarily, a Card-Carrying Villain (sorry). Also likely to be a Card Sharp (with sharp cards), so the use of such a distinctive weapon may be the killer's Calling Card (I can do this all day). If they're so improbably good that the full house won't shut up about it, they're the The Ace (yeah, I know, my card is marked. I can deal with it).

This isn't the author's fault. Rhetorical questions are a very useful device! Unfortunately, an explosion in a lead paint chips factory in Montana has left a fair chunk of the internet with the approximate IQ of a retarded gibbon. If you pose a rhetorical question, or anything that could by the remotest stretch be interpreted as a rhetorical question, someone will respond to it seriously and then pat himself on the back (with his long, gibbon-like arms) for his amazing internet wit. The probability of this happening is 1. Do not write rhetorical questions.

"It's like going to heaven and finding God smoking crack!"

No, this is not a sex trope with a euphemistic title. Perverts.

  • Most of the TV Tropes articles for movies are written as though the author had a neutral opinion about it. Then there's the Camp Rock page.
  • The opening for the Dokapon Kingdom page.
  • The description on the Ken Narita page as it essentially gets hijacked by the man himself, in a giant orange, apparently.
  • The following quote from the top of the Annoying Laugh page:

I do realise that when I laugh, it sounds like a seal is being molested.

This isn't Getting Crap Past the Radar, this is crashing the crap through the front doors and out the back doors of the radar installation, in an armored car with sunglasses-wearing flaming skull decals on every flat surface and a Hieronymus Bosch reproduction on the door, hood-mounted machine guns blazing, Mot örhead blasting on the jury-rigged PA system, and one arm hanging out of the window making a rude hand gesture, and the tires leaving tracks painting sex and violence on the floor and walls.


Examples (trope pages)
  • I couldn't help but roll in laughter and the second entry...of this, on A Boy and His X

First season of the anime is in the can, and I just have to say, 07-Ghost has the highest Ho Yay density of any non-porny show I have EVER SEEN. It's "Over Nine Thousaaaaand!"

  • TV Tropes! This was supposed to be a repository for medical information so doctors could cure any disease in the world, and now look at it!

...having to slog through a waist high swamp of incest feces.

  • The following entry on the Hard Gay page:

"Why LOOK at ARMPITS when you can LOOK at MANPITS!"
"Who needs FANservice when you can have MANservice!"

    • Geez, that sounds like a Powerthirst ad...

Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter, a Complete Monster whose love of Cold-Blooded Torture exceeds even Voldemort's. In fact, there are numerous occasions where Voldemort decides he has to stop Bellatrix from killing anyone (admittedly because killing them would ruin some plan of his, rather than out of any actual mercy, but even so...)
Oh, sure. 'Cause only Voldie can hold her back, right?
NOT AS WELL AS MOLLY, YOU BITCH.

  • Cobra Commander of G.I. Joe, often described as a "faceless effeminate screechy man." Where other villains go into rages, Cobra Commander throws hissy fits.
    • Hell, his threat level seems to be based on how deep his voice is.
  • The film section for the Narm page has this to say about Titanic:
    • Two words: Billy. Zane. His performance is a special kind of genius -- the unintentional kind. In one scene, Cal starts shooting at Jack and Rose as the ship is sinking. As one critic put it, "Oh no! I hope he doesn't shoot them! They might drown!"
Keiichi from Ah! My Goddess went through the transformation in an episode where he was working with Urd's potion ingredients. He checks his new... bumpers in the trope-specified way, then discovers he is still male from the waist down... and his lower half is pretty excited about the additions on the upper floors.
  • Most of the stuff on the Literature section for Narm. Especially...

Asuka: Shinji, you suck.

Shinji: Yeah? Well, let's see how you feel after I strangle you. Cue the light, happy jazz-pop!
Toastyfrog's End of Evangelion: Thumbnail Theatre
  • A lot of the stuff on the Dub Text page. Here are a few notable instances:
    • Sailor Moon: The dub also accidentally created the Unusual Euphemism "talented" for "breast size". The characters were trying out for the play Snow White and Makoto says she should be chosen because of her breasts. The dub version had her refer to her being the most talented instead, but didn't edit the gesture that made it abundantly clear what Lita (dub name for Makoto) meant by talented.
      • Makoto is indeed... talented.
      • Some food for thought: A talent is roughly 60 lbs., or 27 kg.31 (Babylonian Mesopotamian), and 33kg (Roman) to Hebrew measurements with the New Testament Jewish weight of 60kg! So you get a variance of 26-60kg or 57-133lbs! Now the real questions becomes "Is that how each one weighs individually?") Real Life example: Gigantomastia!
        • While she is talented, she's NOT THAT (ahem) talented.
      • Were these examples written by Stan Lee or something?
    • Then there was the scene where the villain Mimete's bare leg is bopping up and down from off screen which pans to reveal that she's... playing twister. In the dub this scene is even saucier as Mimete's voice actress makes all sorts of sultry moans during it.
    • Neflyte's reaction upon seeing Sailor Moon transform for the first time:
      —Neflyte: "I watched while you changed. It was fascinating."

% fixed the following example so that the link still works

Negi: What's this? This man is naked and...
Chisame: DON'T YOU DARE TURN ANOTHER PAGE!!!
Haruna: It's kind of hard to get regular people to understand our hobbies. Right Chisame-san?
Chisame: Then don't friggin' bring 'em-!!

  • A group of armed militants in Kashmir stopped to have some pudding in a cave hideway...shared by a bear. The bear killed two and severely injured a third.
  • To clarify, the cave was shared, not the pudding.
  • Note: This may be why the bear attacked.
    • In an extra on the DVD version of "Earthshock", Adric survives the spaceship crash, lands on prehistoric Earth... and is promptly eaten by a Tyrannosaurus. A detatched Cyberman head remarks, "Excellent".
      —*** ...suuuuuuuure.


Examples (work pages)

  • This bit on The Swan Princess page, caused this troper to laugh non stop. (The highlighted bit was the best part of it all).
Fan-Preferred Couple: Don't even start.
—* Well, there's Did You and Seriously and Highlight This? and...
  • Subtext: Several places. The subtext corners the text in a dark alley, beats it up, and steals its lunch money in the sequence of strips starting here.


Examples (character sheets)

  • Messianic Archetype: Most blatantly during his death, where he is pierced in the side with Thymilph's spear. In several situations, Simon and Kittan ask themselves, "What would Kamina do?". Plus, he returns from the dead to save them all from the Lotus Eater Machine.


Examples (nightmare fuel)


Examples (other subpages)

  • Aizen's transformations to various forms have resulted in the following:
    • "All hail Butterflaizen".
    • KKK!Aizen.
    • "Aizen has become Lady Gaga".
      • That's LORD Gaga to you!
      • Or the Lady!Butterfly Gaga!!!
    • Gin's bankai should of been a flyswatter or a can of Raid.

Harley: (throws off his cloak to reveal that he's dressed like May) Peekaboo! It's your favorite naughty Coordinator -- me!

    • Yeah, try Camp Gay. There's nothing ambiguous about Harley.
  • Finally figured out why Curse is different between Ghost types and other types. Imagine a Slowpoke cursing!
    —** Yooooouuuuu... ...mooootthhheeeeeerrrrr... ...fffffffuuuuuuuuckkeeeeeerrrrr.....
  • In the same episode, Superman's solution to combat both Parasite's skin to skin power stealing powers and Livewire's electric powers is a (clear) full body latex body suit. Livewire's reaction: "Ooh, the boy scout brought protection!"
    • Well, the Boy Scout motto is "be prepared."

Executive: So, um, we need a new toy line or something.
Developer: How about a series of disembodied pair of legs that have a parrot perched on the pelvis and an eyepatch on the left arse cheek? We could call them Butt Pirates.
Executive: Maybe. Any other ideas?
Developer: How about Anal Invaders? I can't think of what they'd be, but the name's pretty good, right?
Executive: (nods approvingly)
Developer: OH! How about a set of plastic rings with fighter jets on them? We could call them Ring Raiders.
Executive: Perfect! And we can make it into a cartoon series somehow!
Developer: For fuck's sake, Gary, stop agreeing with me. I'm trying to lose my job before Mattel buys us out.
Executive: So am I.

  • The following exchange from Enchanted's entry in the Radar section:
  • When Nathaniel first pops out of the manhole, the road workers, exasperated, ask him if he's looking for a beautiful princess like Edward was. Nathaniel's reply: "No. A Prince, actually." The stunned expressions on the roadworkers' faces are obvious.
    • Hur, hur, hur... manhole.
      • Oh, thanks a LOT. Now I'm picturing Timothy Spall erupting out of someone's penis...
  • Attention Ichigo Shippers': Squee in joy at Japan's newest poll of Bleachs best bouts, which seems to feature Ichigo giving valentines to his fan-voted greatest boyfriends.
    • It's like Kubo based Renji's pose off of an underwear model.
    • At this point it is clear that Bleach is a story about fashion models who sometimes pretend to be soul reapers waging war.
In "Can I Keep Him", Johnny Rancid taunts Robin saying, "Look at that, Bird Boy, my dog is kicking your..." Beast Boy turns into a donkey and kicks him, hinting at the greatest euphemism ever in a cartoon for a certain phrase that we all know (because we all know what the old English word for donkey is).
—esol?


Examples (moment pages)

  • The following lines from the Funny Moments page for The Day After:

Go ahead, find something funny about this film. WE DARE YOU.
Does the fact that there's a Crowning Moment of Funny section for a non-humorous film count?

At the beginning of the seventh volume of Mahou Sensei Negima!, Asuna starts acting as though she has suddenly fallen in love with Negi, which was done dramatically (more or less) until it was revealed that she had partaken of a Love Potion by mistake. She starts to act relieved...and then this happens.
The fact that the victim of The Glomp has a major Bodyguard Crush on the girl who's latched onto her makes it even funnier.
Neh, where I come from, "glomps" don't start with your arms around someone's waist and your face snuggled up against their hips... ;-)

It all depends on the reaction time. Setsuna's was better, but not by enough. ^_^
—I don't think that's Setsuna's waist she has her arms around...
