Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
Revision as of 11:21, 26 July 2014 by Goo Monster (talk | contribs)

If you want to know my gender for pronoun purposes, I am a male.

So far I've been pretty bad about remembering to use the minor edit check box. I've been getting better at that though. Also been bad about italicizing work names.

I have low standards on what constitutes as a sinkhole, and will act accordingly (I might be a little more forgiving if a page is obscure). I dislike natter, but I know other people like it and it is a niche are wiki fills and you can't please everyone. I shall respect wiki policy on natter.

Most of the trope Ideas I am working on, but don't have enough examples to officially propose them (in many cases I have 2 examples), but came up with a name for already. Feel free to ask about one, or all of them, especially if you think you might have an example:

  • 555-Boom
  • A Side of Poison
  • Confessing to the Wrong Crime
  • Embarrassing Alibi (someone has an alibi but is reluctant to use it because it is embarrassing, illegal, ect…)
  • Establishing an Unreachable Baseline
  • I Didn't Learn Anything!
  • God’s a Buddhist (god is real, and follows a different religion)
  • Giving the Criminal His Gun Back (A criminal has finished his time in prison, he goes to a window to get his things back, and among the things he is given back is a/are: weapon(s), stolen items, and/or contraband)
  • Killed equals Redemption (Redeem them with sword and fire)
  • Lake of Fire (fire being described or depicted as a liquid)
  • Like A Force Of Nature (a character is described or depicted as a Force of Nature)
  • Little People in The Box (Someone thinks TV (or a radio or something) works by miniature people being inside it).
  • Living Bomb Shelter (Oh crap that's bomb is about is about to go off, we can't get away in time, lets jump into the mouth of that monster)
  • Missing doors and windows ("things are looking scary, I'll just leave the way I came in. What!? Where is it!? I could have sworn it was right here!?" See also It Was Here, I Swear)
  • Reading Magic Words Out Loud (someone accidentally casts a spell by reading words out loud, that the person didn't know were magic words)
  • Real Illusions
  • Release Me So I Can Gnaw On Your Bones (Instructing someone to do something while also stating it is clearly not in that person being instructed's interest to do so).
  • Reversed Therapy (A therapist or psychiatrist is explaining their problems, life, ect... to their patient)
  • Rhetorical Instruction Blunder
  • Please Stop Clapping, Okay Go Ahead and Clap (Someone urges a crowd of followers to stop clapping and cheering, and then changes his mind, probably after they stop)
  • Singing Non-Verbal Notes
  • Sold Out For a Gag Aesop
  • Treacherous Affection (The hero has an unreturned fondness for a villain, preventing him from killing him)
  • Violent smell (A smell is depicted as attacking someone, such as the fumes taking the shame of a hand and slapping the person)
  • Unibrow shaving (someone is shown having a unibrow, and they split it into to eyebrows, probably with some adhesive tape. this is generally done when the person is making him/herself pretty e.g. for a date, the character might only have the unibrow during this scene).

I am doing this to keep track of my contributions, showing off is just a bonus. I don't really care about keeping track of examples added to a trope or work page.
