10 A BOOT STOMPING 20 A HUMAN FACE 30 GOTO 10

Sometimes called simply *A Boot Stomping a Human Face Forever*. A non-winning entry in 2009's 3-Day Novel contest, picked up by Australian publisher Legume Man Books and released in April 2010. Jess Gulbranson's second trope-conscious novel.

The name comes from the computer programming language BASIC, in which it originally required each line to start with a number. The term "GOTO 10" will go back to the line starting with the number 10, which, since there is no way to break out of the loop, would continue forever. It quotes George Orwell's *Nineteen Eighty-Four*.

Short and sweet, the story concerns a music-fixated young man's discovery of a bizarre gift/curse, and his involvement with the parties that would like to exploit it. Buy it here.

Tropes used in *10 A BOOT STOMPING 20 A HUMAN FACE 30 GOTO 10* include:
* Alien Geometries: The cold thing's presence alone causes the rules of physics to go awry locally.
* Brown Note: The Jordanian glyph.
* Determinator: Jones.
* Crazy Cultural Comparison: Jethro Tull on a desert island?
* Deadpan Snarker: Eric, Osborn, and Fargo.
* Disability Superpower: Anna and her friends. By the end of the book could be considered a case of Blessed with Suck.
* Faster-Than-Light Travel: The cold thing is explained as being able to send information and parts of itself over vast distances instantaneously by changing physics.
* Formulaic Magic: 1 divided by 0. Not just a good idea, it's the law.
* Fridge Brilliance: IT sophisticates generally claim that exposure to BASIC causes irreversible brain damage... yep, even the *title* of this work is a Brown Note.
* Ghostly Goals: Averted.
* Headphones Equal Isolation: Eric
* Historical Domain Character: Several, or at least their ghosts: Ian Curtis, Jim Morrison, Elvis Presley, and John von Neumann
* Intrigued by Humanity: Just not all of it.
* Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Osborn. Stated in the afterword to be an Author Avatar.
* Kill'Em All: Sometimes more than once. Word of God has it that despite- or perversely because of this, there will be a sequel.
* Literary Allusion Title: From *Nineteen Eighty-Four*.
* Necromancer: Eric, the narrator
* Pretty Little Headshots: Averted.
* Psychic Nosebleed: Using necromancy in a way that defies logic results in psychic *diarrhea*.
* Stuff Blowing Up: Graceland
* What Measure Is a Mook?: "The only reason I'm alive is because you're not a murderer. Unless you count the driver and all those guards..."

'Twas the Night Before Christmas/Fridge

Template:Underlinked

## Fridge Logic

* So the nicest man in the world is going to punish an entire town based on one letter to the editor? How did he even have time to read their newspaper?
	+ Know-it-all Albert declares that Santa isn't real...in a world where he not only DOES exist, but there's *physical evidence* that Santa exists, and he makes no secret of it. Albert was the only one who *was* acting on blind faith!
		- Father Mouse calls the North Pole on the *phone* to confirm why Santa is skipping Junctionville.
	+ For that matter, what exactly was the point of sending the letter to the editor of the local paper? It's never explained what Albert and his friends were trying to accomplish, apart from showing off their vocabularies.
* Clock towers are typically very complex structures and machines, yet Junctionville seemed to get one completely built in a *few weeks!*

## Fridge Horror

* Not so much horror, but when Albert confessed to trespassing and damaging the clock tower on Christmas Eve, you'd think Father Mouse could have roared "You mean you are responsible for damaging the clock, ruining the Clockmaker's business, impoverishing both his family and ours and cheating the town out of its one chance to curry Santa's favor and you are only coming clean *NOW?!*"
.hack GU Games/Trivia

* Hey, It's That Voice!: When Haseo, Kuhn, and Piros III are together, it's a party of Yosuke, Vash the Stampede, and *Cosmo*. And so much more.
* The Other Darrin: The entire English cast changes between *.hack//Roots* and the G.U. series. Roots was dubbed by The Ocean Group in Canada while G.U. had dubbing done in California.
07-Ghost/Tear Jerker

* *07-Ghost* has Mikage's death. Teito surely isn't the only one who can't stop crying after that \* sob\*
* Ayanami's backstory is sad, despite being the main villain. He fell in love with the chief of heaven's daughter, despite not having anything thing like feelings, and her soul was reincarnated in order to prevent it from falling Veloren's hand. So until he could find it, he attempted to take all the souls on the planet to find her. It is sad, but cruel.

(500) Days of Summer/Headscratchers

* Why does everyone take Tom's asking Autumn out as a sign that he learned nothing or a Here We Go Again? Is Tom just supposed to give up on relationships and be like Summer was at first?
	+ i take it as a sign that he had changed for the better really.
	+ It's the fact that the counter restarts. He's right back where he's started, the names have just changed
		- So whether or not he have better luck this time or make the same old mistakes remains unrevealed.

10.5

***10.5*** is a Made for TV Movie Miniseries for NBC Disaster Movie about a series of increasingly damaging geological events first on the West Coast of the United States and then into the Midwest.

The two-part miniseries opens up when a large quake strikes the Seattle area and brings down the Space Needle. Later a bigger quake devours a train and catches some suspicions from our resident Ignored Expert scientist Kim Delaney. She suspects the quakes are only going to get bigger and will eventually sink the entirety of the West Coast. She plans to counter said problem by detonating nukes at precise locations to stop the fault.

It spawned a second part titled *10.5:Apocalypse* which took the audacity of the first movie and took it Up to Eleven.

Now say the mantra again and again until you finally regain your faith in humanity.

Tropes used in *10.5* include:
* Artistic License Geology: For one thing, it is literally impossible for there to be an earthquake with a magnitude of 10.5 on the Richter Scale, because there aren't any faults big enough.
* Deus Ex Nukina: In addition to their traditional roles as weapons of mass destruction, nuclear explosions can also apparently stop earthquakes. Who knew?
* Disaster Movie: In more than one way.
* Doomed Contrarian: As seen in the sunken casino scene in Apocalypse.
* Earthquakes Cause Fissures
* Nuke'Em: The government sets off a chain of nukes in an attempt to quell the quake, including one in what's alleged to be "Gilroy, California". No more Garlic Festival...
* One-Dimensional Thinking: A bicyclist is victim to this trope in the Seattle event.
* Up to Eleven: The second part does this to the premise of the first.

100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed

***100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed*** is a coming of age memoir about Melissa, a young sexually ravenous girl growing up in Italy. At the age of 14, she decides that she no longer wants to be a virgin and that she will share her body freely to anyone who asks. This takes her through a wildly experimental phase that involves a great deal of sex. When she was ready to publish it, her mother threw it into the trash. It was hyped as a very powerful piece of transgressive fiction and somewhat achieved Love It or Hate It status among readers.

Tropes used in *100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed* include:
* Adults Are Useless: Melissa P's mother periodically comments that her tutor looks creepy but fails to notice what all she is doing.
* All Abusers Are Male: Somewhat upheld. She is just as submissive with women as with men, but women do not take advantage of her the way that men do.
* All Women Are Prudes: Commented on and averted by the narrator, who seems to have a very low opinion of virgins.
* Author Avatar: Obviously, this is Melissa P's memoir.
* BDSM: Melissa acts as a dom for one of her "lovers."
* Bi the Way: Melissa halfway through the novel experiments with bisexuality.
* Ephebophile: Melissa's tutor.
* Even the Girls Want Her: Justified trope in Melissa's case since she does pursue lesbian women.
* Hormone-Addled Teenager: Melissa.
* Hot for Student: Melissa's tutor.
* Incompatible Orientation: Melissa becomes attracted to a lesbian until she realizes just how straight she is.
* It's Not Porn, It's Art: The entire novel has been debated.
* Jerkass: Melissa's first boyfriend.
* Let's Wait a While: Melissa and Jean Claudio.
* National Stereotypes: The stereotype that Italian men are perverts is upheld.
* Nice Guy: Her boyfriend in the end.
* A Party - Also Known as an Orgy: Melissa's final "wild" sexual encounter before she meets the boyfriend at the end of the book.
* Rape as Drama: Melissa P is raped by a stranger and steals money out of his wallet so she can at least feel like a proper prostitute. She acknowledges this experience as rape and after the fact, her fantasies and actions become arguably darker until eventually she calls it quits and stops having casual sex.
* Teacher-Student Romance: It's questionable how romantic the relationship between Melissa and her tutor is, but he buys her gifts and seems to care for her.
* Their First Time: Melissa loses her virginity to her boyfriend in the beginning of the book. A boyfriend who doesn't respect her very much.
* Wholesome Crossdresser: One of the men Melissa sees.

100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed/YMMV

* Les Yay: Melissa has a lesbian encounter halfway through the book. It is not all it's cracked up to be and she does not end up enjoying it or reciprocating.
* Unfortunate Implications:
	+ Gay men have better sex than straight men. Melissa P sees this when she goes to watch two men have sex hoping to see men treat each other as badly as they treat her.
	+ Melissa often allows her relationships to be very anti-feminist and even abusive while resenting them for being that way. This is not seen as a sad an interesting tale about a teenager's life, but often is seen as pure literotica.
+Anima/Ho Yay

* Husky is an unnaturally gorgeous boy. Because he is so utterly pretty and effemminate ](he's also his Kingly father's favorite), his 8,000 half-brothers and their moms made fun of him on a daily basis. As such, he had no friends until he met Cooro. Also, he hates girls with a burning, fiery passion. And he lets it be known. A lot.
	+ When Nana joined the group, Husky was very upset and said it was 'all her fault he couldn't keep the promise [he] made with [Cooro]." (the promise being to travel with him if Cooro untied him from a large pole.) Obviously, he wants Cooro to get rid of Nana so he can stay with him. Cooro then tells him to just forget the promise and leaves, and Husky gets very depressed.
	+ Also, he cross-dresses for cash.
	+ He has a staff called the 'Cooro Punishing Stick'. Enough said.
	+ Nevermind that they're kids. Husky being constantly mistaken for a hot girl generally leads to lots of interesting situations, but particularly in the first chapter, Cooro either deliberately hits on Husky, or is very oblivious that That Came Out Wrong. Even though *he* knows Husky's a boy. There's also an instance of Senri licking Cooro's finger and Rose getting the wrong idea IIRC.
	+ Oh please. In that first example, Cooro was *obviously* just being dramatic.
101 Dalmatians: The Series/YMMV

* Anvilicious: While the TV series has An Aesop in most episodes, they never jammed them into your head. The episode "Smoke Detectors", on the other hand, falls right under this.
* Moment of Awesome: The TV series had its fair share, but one in particular from the episode "Full Metal Pullet" has Spot being the only member of Lucky's group standing up to Lt. Pug after she was Picked Last out of everyone.
* Villain Decay: Cruella in the TV series, who is still a greedy criminal who hates dogs but is more of a conniving cartoonish villain than the nasty piece of work she was in the films. Also, even after the events of the film (which presumably are still part of this canon in some form), nobody else seems to hate her as much as they should (except Roger).
	+ Moral Guardians were likely opposed to the idea of vicious murder on kids' cartoon series.

"I Am Becoming" Song/Playing With

**Basic Trope**: A character sings about the changes s/he went through/is going through.

* **Straight**: Lily has grown realistically into a stronger person, and sings about it.
* **Exaggerated**: Lily starts the song as a delicate, scared person and by the end of two minutes is belting about what a Badass she is.
* **Justified**: Lily never thought she had a talent, and the revelation that she can sing well gives her a burst of confidence.
* **Inverted**: Lily sings about the fact that she hasn't changed at all.
* **Subverted**: Lily sings about how much she's changed...but it's revealed by the end she made it all up.
* **Double Subverted**: ...Except she has, she just hadn't noticed yet.
* **Parodied**: Lily cries perpetually until she has a song describing how much she changed when she was away, and is then she becomes The Pollyanna.
* **Deconstructed**: Announcing her change to the world like this gets her ridiculed for being so showy about something everyone else got over *years* ago.
* **Reconstructed**: But Lila is strong enough that she just laughs along and gets over it.
* **Zig Zagged**: Lila has changed, and sings about it. Except she was lying about that. But wait! One thing that changed was she didn't know how to lie before! Except that wasn't *really* a lie...
* **Averted**: Lila doesn't change.
	+ Lila doesn't sing about her changes.
* **Enforced**: "We need to emphasize how much Lila has changed, and her actor's insisting on a big musical number."
* **Lampshaded**: "And here's the part where Lila sings about how the changes she's gone through made her into something new."
* **Invoked**: "And now, to sing, to solidify my Character Development.
* **Defied**: "I'm not going to change!"
	+ "No singing. We don't have a lot of rules, but that's one of them."
* **Discussed**: "And Lila has just gotten out to start living life on her own." "Time for the song and dance number."
* **Conversed**: "Do you think Alicia is going to get a song this week?" "Yeah. Look at the Character Development she's getting."

* In *.hack//SIGN* Tsukasa is worried whether he's really a person or just a program in The World. Subaru takes his hand and places it on her chest, and tells him that if he can feel her heart beating, than the sensations he's feeling is real and that they can interact has meaning. She continues with this, but Tsukasa has stopped worrying about his existance or her philosophy and is making this *face* at his hand that was touching a pretty girl's chest a few seconds ago.
	+ And if you consider that in the real world Tsukasa turns out to be a girl... well, that either makes it even funnier or... um... not.
* End of *.hack//SIGN*. "This shindig looks like the bomb-diggity."
	+ That, and the Monkey Dance.
101 Dalmatians/Nightmare Fuel

* Cruella De Vil has some pretty scary moments. Maybe the worst is when she drives right at the camera with this face, but there's also the scene where the dogs are hiding in an old shed and she suddenly drives past *really slowly*, glaring in the window. Turned Up to Eleven when she comes back shortly thereafter, going the other way.
* Cruella ("-De Vil"), Cruella ("-De Vil, if she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will..."). And more.
	+ Plus **THIS FACE.**
	+ Likewise, the part where the dogs are hiding in the coal shed and suddenly Cruella is right there at the window, driving past *really slowly* and glaring in at them. gets even worse when, shortly thereafter, this is repeated with Cruella going the other way.
* A very important example that combines with Fridge Horror. She's ordered her henchmen to kill puppies and in the most painful ways possible to have them skinned into a fur coat which is scary enough; now, consider the following: it's implied they were her *regular employees*, so they do work for her *all the time*, but acquiring fur illegally — by *stealing and killing puppies* — IS the only work *she ever gives them*, and we are shown that she already had about *fifty* fur coats made up by the time the police caught her. Oh, God, those poor hundreds of puppies...
	+ Of course, all but Pongo and Perdita's litter were actually bought and paid for. Doesn't excuse the killing of those poor puppies, but it does seem to lighten the blow just a wee bit.
* Just look Pongo and Perdita's faces when they are facing off Jasper and Horace. They don't look so sweet anymore...
* Ivy's regular face is cute and adorable, but when she gets angry or sinister, then her face truly lives up to this trope.

> Ivy: "I'm cute as a button, and ready for war!"

"Staying Alive" Dance Pose

File:TravoltaSNL 7527.jpg
A Stock Parody and Stock Pose, when somebody dances in fiction, they're likely to mimic John Travolta's iconic pose from *Saturday Night Fever*, with their arm stretched out and hand pointing toward the sky.

Related to Everythings Funkier With Disco.

Compare Risky Business Dance.

Examples of "Staying Alive" Dance Pose include:

## Film

* In *Airplane!*, during Ted Stryker's flashback about how he first met Elaine, before dancing with her, he throws his jacket off and strikes the pose, only for someone to throw the jacket back at him.
* Tony P. does the move in *Mystery Men*, while dancing the Hustle in the Disco room. A couple of the other Disco Boys do it while fighting the Mystery Men; it seems to be not just a dance for them but also a part of their martial arts style.
* Big Foot is seen doing it in the background on *A Goofy Movie*, listening to "Staying Alive" on a Walkman, no less.
* *Chicken Run* is supposed to take place in The Fifties, but that doesn't stop the rats Nick and Fetcher from striking the pose during "Flip, Flop and Fly".

## Live Action TV

* In a game of "Superheroes" on the American edition of *Whose Line Is It Anyway?*, Colin Mochrie does this while playing "Disco Boy".
* On *Married... with Children*, Al's Let's Get Dangerous Catch Phrase was "Let's rock." When the show moved to Saturday nights for its final season, Al was in commercials saying "let's disco" and doing this.
* John Travolta did this himself in an opening monologue on *Saturday Night Live*, referencing his various roles while saying he's not going to do that including *Welcome Back, Kotter*, *Urban Cowboy*, *Look Who's Talking*; and of course *Saturday Night Fever*.

> **Travolta:** It's just fun to have a new film like *Pulp Fiction* and forget about the old ones. What is that? Is that a light? *points upward in this fashion*
>
>

## Print

* Mad Magazine: Alfred E. Neuman strikes the pose on the cover of an issue spoofing *Saturday Night Fever*.
* Newspaper comics: There's a *Garfield* strip where Jon does this at a party. The disco ball then falls on his head.

> **Jon**: \*strikes pose\* BOOGIE! BOOGIE! BOOGIE! \*ball falls on head\*
> **Garfield**: Let's boogie on home. I'll lead.

## Video Games

* The dancing zombie in *Plants vs. Zombies* does this move, which summons four other dancing zombies to join him.
* The cats and dogs representing the player's lives in the Jimmy T. and Jimmy P. stages in *Wario Ware: Smooth Moves*.
* The way in which Iku Nagae of *Scarlet Weather Rhapsody* brandishes her spell cards looks a lot like the pose, leading to a lot of Doujinshi associating her with disco.

## Web Original

* In Erfworld, prince Ansom did this while coordinating his army dance-fighting against the enemy thriller-dancing zombies. (It Makes Sense in Context)

## Western Animation

* *The Simpsons*: Disco Stu, as his name implies, does this often, even during a Civil War reenactment.
* *Futurama*: In the episode "Less Than Hero", Fry adopts this pose when he becomes the retro-themed superhero Captain Yesterday.
"Hey You!" Haymaker/Playing With

**Basic Trope**: A character taps someone on the shoulder (or does something else to get their attention), then punches them as they turn around.

* **Straight**: While infiltrating Trope Inc., Bob taps a security guard on the shoulder, waits for them to turn around and knocks them out with a punch.
* **Exaggerated**: This is Bob's only method of dealing with security guards.
* **Justified**: It looks cool, and it works.
* **Inverted**: A security guard taps Bob on the shoulder, then hits him in the face with the rifle butt.
* **Subverted**: The security guard turns around, sees the punch coming and ducks it.
* **Double Subverted**: So Bob knocks him out with the other hand.
* **Parodied**: Bob's haymakers can send security guards through walls 10 ft away.
* **Deconstructed**: Bob breaks his hand trying to knock out a super soldier.
* **Reconstructed**: So he weakens the super soldier, \*then\* haymakers them.
* **Averted**: Bob uses chokeholds and other more silent methods of subduing security guards.
* **Enforced**: Rule of Cool/Rule of Funny
* **Lampshaded**: "Peekaboo, motherfucker."
* **Invoked**: ???
* **Defied**: ???
* **Discussed**: "What is with this guy and haymakers?"
* **Conversed**: ???
* **Played for Laughs**: As a prank, one of the security guard's collegues has sellotaped a note on the back of his suit: "Haymaker me, please." Bob is all too happy to oblige.

100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd/Headscratchers

* Why is Eddie's face not shown when he is human in the first episode?
	+ More suspense to wanting him to be reverted.
* Two things have always bugged me about this series. One, according to the Drifter in that episode where Eddie helps a girl dog he has a crush on complete her deeds, Eddie's parents have *completely forgotten about him*. And this isn't apparently some magical thing, either, because that girl gets to go back to hers when she turns human. Is Eddie Squee's older brother or something?
	+ It could be that the parents forget about the kid while he's a dog, but when he's turned back, they remember again.
* The second is the pound episode, where it is revealed that dog tags can protect you against toxic gases. And conveniently, pounds leave these lying around inside of the chambers that they flood with gas to kill the dogs.

10.5/Trivia

* Artistic License Geology: Gee where do we begin?
	+ Let's start with an earthquake fissure overtaking a train. Or the volcano that erupts without precursory activity, or ya know what it's just easier to accept They Just Didn't Care than actually rattle off the voluminous errors in this miniseries.
	+ Immediately following the original airing of 10.5, the news program showed a bunch of real-life geologists watching the movie/miniseries on TV and *laughing their heads off.*
	+ At the end of the first movie a new seaway opens up from Los Angeles to Barstow. That fine Mojave metropolis is at about 2100 feet above sea level, so you'd expect tall cliffs leading down to the surface of the water below. Instead there's maybe a two-foot difference between the water level and the surrounding land.
* Artistic License Geography: Ellensburg is nowhere near Seattle.
* Artistic License Physics: Gee ya think?
	+ Artistic License Nuclear Physics: Yeah...

* Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: "Tell us what you want for once!" It's rather close to being a *Crowning Moment of Ho Yay*.
	+ The end of chapter 56 (the last one) is both this and a total Tear Jerker.
* Jerkass Woobie: Igneous. He may be prejudiced towards +Anima and Kimunle, but he has his (a little twisted) reasons and tries to serve his country with all his strength. At the end he (in a sense) loses two people he loved because of Anima.
* Ho Yay: Nevermind that they're kids. Husky being constantly mistaken for a hot girl generally leads to lots of interesting situations, but particularly in the first chapter, Cooro either deliberately hits on Husky, or is very oblivious that That Came Out Wrong and just likes being dramatic. Even though *he* knows Husky's a boy. There's a lot of Cooro/Husky subtext, in fact, as well as an instance of Senri licking Cooro and Rose getting the wrong idea.
	+ The Cooro Punishing Stick.
	+ Then there was the boy who fell in love with "the mermaid" (Husky had a fit over that), and Fly and Igneous (who *never stops blushing*). And, much more creepily, Fly's behaviour with Cooro is... just, *creepy*.
	+ Cooro and Shad in chapter 9. Cooro acts simply heartbroken for a long while when Shad kicks him out. Husky even seems slightly jealous about it.
	+ Husky strips both Cooro and himself, in *Husky's Depression*. Though Husky was trying to prove to Nana he actually has man-parts, having Cooro get naked was completely outside the bounds of proving his point. And his excuse as to why he did it was super lame.
	+ Despite it not being direct Ho Yay, it's hard to get over the fact that Husky's opponent in the coliseum is a man named Dick.
* Moral Event Horizon: When Cooro shows a tiny bit of free will Fly lies to him to crush the little bit of resistance Cooro built up.
* Nightmare Fuel: THIS. AND ESPECIALLY THIS.
	+ Nana's past. *Her father chasing her through the forest at night with a* **machete**. She does still have many nightmares and flashbacks about it, understandably.
		- Also some Fridge Horror; Nana's safe, but her dad is drunk, irrational, has a deadly weapon, and is headed home where Nana's abused and exceedingly vulnerable mother is...
	+ Um, how about Cooro's birth? His mom died while pregnant with him and following the custom of her village, was left out for the crows to eat. The crows start eating her and then *baby Cooro bursts out of her stomach and flies after them*.
* No Yay: Fly's behaviour with Cooro is just *creepy*.
* Tear Jerker: All of the kids' pasts, but special mention goes to... most of volume 10, really, and chapter 55 'Goodbye' in particular.
* Viewer Gender Confusion: Husky is a guy? Really?
	+ Not restricted to the viewer.
"Somewhere" Song

> *On the other side of the moon*

>
> *Ever so far, beyond the last little star,*
> *There's a land, I know,*
> *Where the good songs go,*
> *Where it's always afternoon,*

> "The Land Where The Good Songs Go" (by Jerome Kern and P. G. Wodehouse)

A song about an idealized, far-off place, real, imaginary or merely notional, often at a specific time. Often, the title will include the words "Somewhere" or "Out/Up/Over There".

.hack//Sign/Headscratchers

* Aside from being an immature brat, does it seem like Sora is a little overly intelligent for a fourth grader? In some scenes he talks about how "we (the players) use each other for information?" and discusses using Silver Knight "as a pawn" and basically a bunch of other things you wouldn't expect someone his age to say.
	+ He's just Genre Savvy to all the nuances of a fantasy MMORPG. He probably doesn't fully get everything he says, but he's heard others talk like that and has a working understanding of what they mean.
* Does this show have *any* fight scenes at all? And if so, in which episodes?
	+ I don't remember exactly which episodes these are in, but:
		- The first time Tsukasa sees the Guardian is when it stops the Silver Knight in the middle of said Knight attacking Tsukasa with a sword. The Guardian doesn't appear until Tsukasa is effectively cornered.
		- There's also when the adventuring party of girls attacks Tsukasa on a castle wall when the rumours about the Guardian are beginning to spread. That's more of a Curb Stomp Battle than anything else, but that's kind of the Guardian's MO.
		- If I remember correctly, there's also the battle where Tsukasa is taken prisoner, and at least one other case where Crim takes part in a fight (aside from the offscreen one with Sora)

.flow/YMMV

* Ambiguous Gender / Viewer Gender Confusion: Oreko and possibly Sabitsuki. The Kaibutsu are generally hard to figure out as well, (excluding the pigtails one and the Sabitsuki lookalike).
* Demonic Spiders: The Kaibutsu, which are pale white-haired figures resembling schoolchildren with bleeding faces. Usually they simply wander around, minding their own business, but then if you smack them with the steel pipe, they become enraged and chase you. And then they teleport you to inescapable areas. Some of them don't need to be smacked to be enraged, since they already are. Luckily, you can avoid them by using the ghost effect, but touching them still teleports you away.
* Ear Worm: Many of the songs, but especially Shinsoku Neko's music.
* Ensemble Darkhorse: Quite a few obscure characters, such as Oreko who only serves to give you the Diving Helmet effect, Smile and Sister (his little sister) and even the Kaibutsu. Sabitsuki herself is very popular, not unlike Madotsuki and Urotsuki (Yume 2kki) of the other games.
* Goddamn Bats:
	+ The Fetuses (Otherwise known as "red demons"). Though they only appear in one part of the game - specifically, the Womb Level near to where you get the Viscera effect - they nastily disable your effects, not to mention there are a lot of them in said area. In the endgame, though, they become even worse. They slowly wear Sabitsuki down, move erratically, and have an annoying habit of speeding up when they have a clear path to Sabitsuki. Oh, and they're just about everywhere at this point in the game. On the other hand, they make certain spots that normally had Kaibutsu easier as they replace a lot of them, meaning Sabi can just tank the damage and move on. EXCEPT IF YOU TOUCH TOO MANY YOU EXPLODE IN A BLOODY MESS.
	+ Except Rust's corrupted school event, where they LITERALLY replace the Kaibutsu.
* Nightmare Fuel: The very definition of this trope. Oh boy, where to start...?
	+ A video of it - Oh wait, this isn't bad at all!...Wait...oh..shi-
	+ Everything about the Children's Hospital, especially the music.
* Squick: Some theories speculate that the Sugar Hole's cake is made out of human flesh.
* Tear Jerker: Some parts of the game are just plain depressing.

* You can easily count the number of episodes that *don't* end in one with your fingers. An example is like when one of Mylene's opponents, an agent masquerading as a musician, prefers to blow himself up than killing her, which greatly upsets Mylene as she reflects on how happy they could have been.
'Gator Bait

File:ClaudiaJenningsDay01 129.jpg
A 1974 exploitation film starring Playboy Playmate Claudia Jennings. The story follows a gorgeous Louisiana poacher named Desiree as she runs from the local sheriff, his inept deputy son, the mean and nasty patriarch of the Bracken family, and his two dumb-as-mud hillbilly kin after being framed for murder. The movie was sold on the idea of seeing Jennings run around in cutoffs but there's a number of squirm inducing scenes of attempted rape. A sequel was made in 1988 called *'Gator Bait II: Cajun Justice*, with 100% less Claudia Jennings and 300% more hairspray.

Tropes used in *'Gator Bait* include:
* Action Girl: Desiree is easily the most capable character in the film.
* Artistic License: Biology: For a guy who was supposedly castrated Leroy is an awfully horny fellow.
* B-Movie: You bet.
* Brother-Sister Incest: Almost happens until Pa Bracken breaks it up with a bullwhip.
* Corrupt Hick: Billy Boy.
* Deep South: The film takes place in a Louisiana swamp.
* Does Not Like Shoes: Desiree spends the entire film barefoot.
* Eighties Hair: The sequel.
* Fan Service: Claudia Jennings in cut offs was obviously intended as this.
* Fetish Fuel: It's an exploitation film, and they cast a Playboy Playmate. Of course it's this.
* Gorn: Julie is shot in the vagina at point blank range while being raped.
* Jerkass: TJ Bracken uses a bullwhip to keep his boys in line. In his defense, however, they are both stupid as hell.
* Narm: Jennings' attempt at a Cajun accent.
* Only Sane Man: Sheriff Joe Bob is the only person in the hunting party who tries to use logic.
* Secret Other Family: TJ Bracken is Desiree's real father.
* Too Dumb to Live: When a bag of snakes gets thrown into his boat, Billy Boy tries to shoot them. Guess what happens. Also, Pete and Leroy Bracken by default.
* The Voiceless: Desiree's kid brother was born without a tongue.

+EV/YMMV

* Accidental Innuendo: Clancy wants to point out that backdooring cowboys is one thing he won't do, here.
* Lowest Common Denominator: The comic seems to have a very specific target audience: People who play poker. If you don't really play the game that much, you probably won't get any of the jokes. Except for the toilet humor.
* Painful Rhyme: The Princess Amazia theme song.
100 Bullets/YMMV

* Complete Monster: Augustus Medici.
* Crosses the Line Twice: "Did you bust a nut when I...?"
* Ensemble Darkhorse: Cole Burns and because of Misaimed Fandom, Lono.
* Fridge Brilliance: The fact that the Trust is composed of **13** families initially just seems like a detail added in to make them seem more evil (because, y'know...**13** is an unlucky number). Then we find out that the Trust were the real founders of the United States--a nation that started out as a union of **13** colonies. One colony for each house of the Trust.
* Genius Bonus: Several involving the American-history stuff.
	+ "Lono" is a Hawaiian god of fertility and music. Aside of the fact that Lono **is** Hawaiian, he bears very little resemblance to the god.
* Tear Jerker: The scenes in *Wylie Runs The Voodoo Down* when Wylie kills Martin and Rose respectively (Rose was in a flashback), the above mentioned fate of the Rome brothers, and much of the final issue.
	+ And Wylie's death. That got me right *here*.
"You're the Best" Montage

The "You're the Best" Montage is a sports montage and it shows you, or your team, having lots of small, easy, insignificant victories to a sporting tune. It's popular in an episode of a show dedicated to a tournament of some kind, as it gets to show the team being good and winning many times while hurrying them along a course of weeks or even months to the main event - the finals. It's not used so often in films because there's more time in the film.

They're going to win this match for sure, and they're going to keep winning, probably to the tune of "You're The Best Around" by Joe Esposito (although that song is also popular in a Training Montage).

There is very little training in this type of Montage (if at all) because it's assumed that the training has already been done and all that's left is to be awesome and win.

The final is a lot more important, so the Montage ends right there so that the episode can concentrate on how tough the final match is going to be.

Examples of "You're the Best" Montage include:

## Western Animation

* A parody of a You're The Best Montage in *South Park* shows the South Park's Little League Baseball Team winning matches, and Stan's father winning petty fights with other redneck dads. The irony is that the teams are cheering for each other to throw balls or strike out so that they can *lose*, but to their disappointment they just keep winning, and they play entirely without enthusiasm.

Śpiew Dawida

**Śpiew Dawida** - jedna z najważniejszych jak i najlepszych umiejętności pabianickiego wokalisty. Pomimo, że Jasper nie potrafi czytać to i tak zamiast tego próbuje zapamiętać tekst słuchając piosenkę i w ten sposób zaczyna fenomenalnie śpiewać covery.

Poza śpiewaniem oryginalnego tekstu potrafi zmyślać śmieszne teksty do muzyki typu "To wiesia hari donta" bądź "Dawaj to mięsko" (to drugie jest głównie skierowane do Miśki podczas zabawy).

Ogólną uwagę zawdzięcza tonacja głosu Dawida, która niemalże idealnie się dopasowuje do każdej muzyki.

## Ciekawostki

Często fani na YouTube przerabiają covery Dawida, aby one jeszcze lepiej brzmiały.

Najpopularniejszy cover jak i za razem film z udziałem Jaspera ma 2,7 miliona wyświetleń (aktualne na 11.09.2023 r.) i znajduje się pod tym linkiem.

Prawdopodobnie najstarszym coverem Dawida na YouTubie jest z muzyki Iron Weasel - Taki Weasel jest.

Dawid jako koneser muzyki zrobił na swoim serwerze Discord konkurs pt. Beatbox Challenge, ̶n̶a̶ ̶k̶t̶ó̶r̶y̶m̶ ̶w̶i̶ę̶k̶s̶z̶o̶ś̶ć̶ ̶o̶s̶ó̶b̶ ̶c̶h̶e̶a̶t̶o̶w̶a̶ł̶a̶. Wygrał go użytkownik na R 221.
