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.
