TvTropes
« on: August 07, 2010, 10:48:26 am »
You love it or you hate it, you inevitably get linked to it, its TvTropes, and theres no escaping it. This thread is for all your trope needs, from The Law of Conservation of Detail to Impassable Waist Height Fences, you can learn everything you never wanted to know about games, movies, manga, and even real life, just don't get lost, but you will, so don't worry as long as it doesn't Ruin your life.

A thread on TvTropes with 11 links in the first paragraph, this could almost be a page from the website! See, since it has so many links? This thread if for general discussion of the site, hating on it, compaining about it, just make sure you have at least one link to a trope in each post.  :)

We're Bay12er's. If there is a bug, we will find it, exploit it, and make a recursive statue out of it. Just look up Planepacked.

When a dwarf enters a martial trance, they become Jedi. Short, drunken Jedi.

This is the worst thing anyone has ever done. You are a bastard for posting this.

To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.

Think of it as a social experiment, like The Game

I wonder when TVTropes will become a Household Name?

This being Homestuck, I'm not sure whether that's post-scratch Rose or Vriska with a wig.

I don't have a problem with TvTropes, I browse it pretty regularly, I have a problem with its ability to instantly derail a thread with "oh nooo lol now I'll be on TvTropes for the rest of my life lol xD"
