A collection of Headscratchers entries for all things Tropes.

If no Headscratchers page currently exists for the work you're confused about, feel free to add one. Just type Headscratchers/NameOfTrope?action=edit in your html bar, and voila! It should appear as an icon on the main page once you're done. Remember to index it here afterward.
