*
* [[Take That|Pot Hole'd]] [[Pothole|Take That]].
** [[TVAll The Tropes Wiki Drinking Game|Three sips!]] Pot Hole'd Take That optional.
* [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|Example]] [[Overly Long Gag|festooned]] [[Overused Running Gag|with]] [[The End or Is It|seemingly]] [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|random]] [[Death By Newbery Medal|and]] [[The Inheritance Trilogy|unnecessary]] [[Pothole|pot holes,]] [[Xanatos Gambit|just]] [[Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series|because]] [[They Might Be Giants|the]] [[Nerd|troper]] [[Xanatos Roulette|is]] [[Smug Snake|trying]] to be [[Kawaiiko|cute.]]
* Example, followed by several
Line 113:
** A single remaining bullet of natter that ends up having been condensed from three or more bullets.
* [[Fetish Fuel|This]] trope is somebody's sexual fetish. The troper cataloging this fact will probably reveal more about themself than you needed to know.
** Reminder that not everyone [[Nightmare Fuel|agrees]] with the [[Nightmare Fuel StationattendantStation Attendant|previous troper]]. [[Squick]].
* Four more examples from a single [[Trope Overdosed]] series.
** Four more examples from a single [[Trope Overdosed]] series.
Line 153:
* Example that leaves out article but has otherwise perfect grammar.
* An example that is already on the page but uses somewhat different writing.
* {{spoiler|Spoiler covered}} example from a series you've been following {{spoiler|that lacks the volume or episode it appears in}}, leading you to believe {{spoiler|that you've passed this spoiler and that [[Late Arrival Spoiler|you should know this already]]}}. You haven't, and so you've been {{spoiler|spoiled! [[TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|Curse you, TV Tropes!]]}}
* 陰茎の例日本語。(see [[The First Law of Trope Examples]]).
** Translation of the above from a bilingual troper who thinks too highly of himself.
Line 167:
* Far-reaching example from [[This Troper]]'s favorite [[Trope Overdosed]] series. It's not really relevant but you'll leave it because someone else will just add it again.
* A particularly [[Egregious]] [[Author Vocabulary Calendar|example]].
** Redirect to [[TVAll The Tropes Wiki Drinking Game]].
* Rare example from a particular medium, not to be confused with the dozen other examples from that medium.
* An example which bugs you because you wanted to be the one to add it.
Line 253:
* Example that gets no particularly strong emotional reaction from you, the reader, but is nonetheless [[Pothole|Pot Holed]] to [[Nightmare Fuel|one]] [[Crowning Moment of Funny|of]] [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|the]] [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|various]] [[Subjective Tropes]]. Maybe you had to be there.
* Example that potholes the series name in the [[Doctor Who (TV)|character]] [[Firefly|name]] so it can't be searched for on the page and will be repeated further down at some point.
* Example that is [[Too Dumb to Live|already somewhere on this page,]] [[What an Idiot!|but put here anyway.]]
* [[Two Words Obvious Trope|Two Words]]: [[Next Trope]]
** Natter about how this trope needs to be explained.
Line 312:
* Example that [[Candle Jack]] kidna
** An argument about the propriety of using a meme on a trope page.
* Light-hearted self-deprecating [[TVAll The Tropes Wiki Drinking Game|meta]] example.
* Reference to a show (i.e. [[Firefly]]) entered at the bottom because the editor has only read the page description, and not bothered to look to see if an entry of that show is already there. [[Ass Pull|87% chance]] of being the exact same example just worded differently.
 
Line 366:
* Arguably, an [[Examples Are Not Arguable|arguable example]].
* [[My Favorite Show]] is the undisputed king of having this trope in spades, 'nuff said, full stop.
* Example that [[TVAll The Tropes Wiki Drinking Game|deliberately does things that make you drink]] and ends with "Now drink up!".
* Example with minor historical inaccuracies.
** A scathing explanation of why this is wrong!
Line 374:
*** [[Completely Missing the Point|Sarcastic reply that is potholed to Completely Missing the Point]].
* Non-example added by someone who clearly didn't read the trope description and is just guessing based on the name.
* Example from [[The Simpsons]] pointing out that they [[The Simpsons Did It|did it]], unaware of the actual purpose of [[ItsIt's Been Done|that trope]].
* Example awkwardly referencing a [[Renamed Tropes]] because someone was too lazy to reword it.
* [[Too Dumb to Live|I can't believe nobody's mentioned]] [[Overly Long Gag|the example from earlier on the page!]]
* [[Long Runner]], referenced by name only with absolutely no context.
* Example from a webcomic that was updated earlier today or an episode that just aired which you wanted to add as well. Making you wonder [[TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|what other people do with their lives]].
* Obligatory reference that [[TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life]].
* Trope Name is a Time Lord, and TV Tropes is its TARDIS.
* An example where the editor, instead of using a [[Wiki Word]], just put the words in curly brackets for some reason.
Line 439:
* Example that was originally typed with no space after the bullet, but was automatically rectified by the wiki.
* exmplew ith Relly bad spelleng or Lost of tyops sgiend egogy.
* Obligatory example with [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]].
* An example without the name of the work because this troper forgot.
* Example discussing how Show/Person X with a large [[Periphery Hatedom]] does this trope badly. Probably already on the page, but the troper that puts it really hates this thing.
Line 458:
* An example that references "a [[Examples Are Not Recent|recent]] episode of [[My Favorite Show]]" without any further elaboration to help identify the episode months or years down the road.
* An example that blatantly insults a particular [[Guilty Pleasure]] series that is not deleted because a lot of tropers agree with it.
* An example that's already been brought up twice, potholed to [[How Did We Miss This One?]].
* Example containing [[Pothole|a pothole broken into]] ''[[Pothole|multiple]]'' [[Pothole|links to the]] ''[[Potholes|same article]]'' [[Pothole|by]] ''[[Pothole|italicized words]]''. Alternatively, example containing 'improper formatting of italics''.
* Example that is duplicated on Another Related Trope Page. It really fits on that page better, but it hasn't been removed because that page is newer, and no one made the connection between the two tropes until after the newer one was launched.
Line 486:
* Troper Tales
** Snide [[Natter]] pointing out the removal of Troper Tales.
* Example involving [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]], thus invoking [[GodwinsGodwin's Law]].
** Example involving Stalin, thus invoking [[GodwinsGodwin's Law]] Response.
* Controversial example that is bound to be deleted at some point for fear that it might result in [[Internet Backdraft]].
** Counterpoint to controversial example, which might even get the entire [[Real Life]] section taken off the page, despite the fact that the rest of the [[Real Life]] examples were perfectly uncontroversial, albeit better placed in [[Troper Tales]].
*** Blatant, badly spelled [[Flame Bait]] to above, asserting that all who stand on one particular side of the discussion are [[Eats Babies|baby munching]] [[GodwinsGodwin's Law|Nazis]].
* Historical example that is now found not to be true.
* Example that doesn't quite fit the trope.
