When two or more existing tropes are combined (via addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc.) to make a different but somehow related trope.

Compare Rebus Bubble, X Meets Y, and Mix and Match.

Some of the basic building blocks for trope equations:
* = "and", "with"
| = "or"
- = "not", "without"
x = "is"

This list is alphabetized by the end result. Please put new tropes in the appropriate spot.

Examples
  1. Oh, come on. Like you didn't see that one coming.
  2. This is true despite the clear violation of Fermats Last Theorem.
