This needs more examples, but does it need anything else?

I took a look at it... um, yesterday, I think, as part of my ongoing bulldoze through the Workshop. I really didn't think I had much to add to it, except maybe a sentence or two about how "the scenic route" is often a face-saving synonym for "I made a wrong turn and got lost".

"except maybe a sentence or two about how "the scenic route" is often a face-saving synonym for "I made a wrong turn and got lost"."

Or "taxi deliberately taking a longer than optimal route to jack up the fare" (which may be a trope in its own right).

Fare-boosting tricks as a whole should probably get their own trope.

I'm not entirely sure this is tropeworthy as it currently stands, but I'm open to clarification as to why I'm wrong.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

I've fleshed it out a bit since I asked yesterday... It's a setting trope, like Scenery Porn.

Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

All right, I think this has gotten as much work as it's likely to get right now. Let's take the stub template off it.
