* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaaxtxkJqKg HELLO, TYRANNOSAURUS ALAN!]] [[LargeHam I'M FILLING MY WATER WITH VOLCANICITYYY!!!]] I honestly love the George Volcano and Tyrannosaurus Alan Volvic ads. They're just so dang wacky and hilarious. I can still remember the lines perfectly - and frankly, I think it says something about their memorability and effectiveness as ads.

* Hasbro's MarvelUniverse line of 3.75-inch figures. They're on the same scale as the Franchise/GIJoe figures, meaning that you can get some of the [[RuleOfCool craziest crossovers yet]]. Wanna see ComicBook/CaptainAmerica and Snake-Eyes teaming up against Cobra and the Red Skull? Now you most certainly can.

* ''Animation/TreasureIsland1988'' might have undergone MemeticMutation in the early 2020's mostly due to the character of [[MemeticBadass Dr. Livesey]], but the two-parter is so much more than a meme. This adaptation of the novel among many manages to stand out thanks to its more comedic tone that still respects the source material, unique reinterpretations of familiar characters that are (mostly) given the AdaptationalBadass treatment, memorable vocal performances from pretty much the entire cast, catchy original music, and most of all its frequently brilliant sequences of animation that warp perspectives in ways not often seen in 2D animation.

* The Mitsubishi ASX, launched in 2010. Sure, it looks like an oversized hatchback and [[WordOfGod Mitsubishi say it's a crossover SUV]], but it's tough, resilient, and can take whatever you throw at it. Some people claim it's from Mitsubishi's DorkAge but ignore the claims that Mitsubishis are [[TheAllegedCar unreliable Japanese cars that are dull]]... British owners can attest to this.

** The FlameBait revamp has brought back my faith in Wiki/TVTropes. Everyone who helped at it deserves a badge.

*** If TV Tropes was a person, and was female ([[IfItsYouItsOkay okay, even if it were male]]), I'd be totally, completely in love with them and ''definitely'' considering marriage. ♥ I spend way too much time here now and I don't think I've ever been happier with a wiki (sorry, Wiki/{{Wikipedia}}). Just... every little geeky thing I'm into, you're into it too; you're cool and inviting, as opposed to Wikipedia's increasing uptightness; and you're ''fun''. I love you all. * hugs*

* This page is awesome. ''This'' is what I like to think of when I think of [[Wiki/TVTropes this wiki]] - people coming together to celebrate their superlative shows, not bitch about them endlessly.

** Even if [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TV Tropes does ruin my life]] and contribute to my falling behind on homework, I still love it anyway.

* Anything from [[Franchise/WhenTheyCry Ryuu]][[Manga/HiganbanaNoSakuYoruNi Kishi 07]]. His works are scary, cerebral, and overall just highly entertaining.

* If you have to play one VisualNovel, this must be ''VisualNovel/HatofulBoyfriend''. It revolves around pigeon-dating. And it is an awesome game with a full cast of CrazyAwesome characters. And, as if the very fact that a pigeon-dating simulator exists is not awesome enough on its own, it actually has a story. And a very good story, at that. Prepare to be shocked, amused, scared, and touched - often at the same time.

* Also, for a bit of nostalgia: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZi2og1YQJA&ibss=1 this.]] I never grew up with these commercials, but at the same time, I did. Farfel is adorable, Jimmy Nelson is truly the Dean of American Ventriloquists, and yes, Nestle's makes the very best. (CHAWWW-KLIT! *snap*)

* ''Animation/HappyHeroes'' is a charming and silly Chinese animated series that's really worth checking out! You can watch one of the [[UnfinishedDub short-lived]] English dubs on Website/YouTube. The English dub has a couple flaws, but it's still pretty funny.
* ''Animation/{{Lamput}}'', a dialogueless series about a shapeshifting blob that EscapedFromTheLab and is on the run from a FatAndSkinny scientist duo, is not well-known in certain places outside of India, particularly the United States. Which is a shame, as it's got some simple but charming characters and great animation.

Sure, it looks like an oversized hatchback and [[WordOfGod Mitsubishi say it's a crossover SUV]], but it's tough, resilient and can take whatever you throw at it. Some people claim it's from Mitsubishi's DorkAge but ignore the claims that Mitsubishis are [[TheAllegedCar unreliable Japanese cars that are dull]]... British owners can attest to this.
* Ford Telstar, 1982-1999, Japanese-Australian-New Zealand built sedan [[IdenticalStranger that's basically a badge-engineered Mazda 626]]. Safe and reliable, and the 2.5 V6 engine is ''good''. The best model: 2.0 GLX sedan, 1993 edition, with the "sun" wheelcovers.
* Fiat Regata, 1983-1989. Sure, it's boxy and looks rather dull, but owners have said it ''lasts'', but it's cheap to buy and run, and the 1.5 and 1.6 petrols are decent enough. Maroon, blue or black paint suit it well.

* Anything and everything by [[Franchise/{{Nasuverse}} Kinoko Nasu]], but especially ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight''. Yes, all you do is read, but I DARE YOU not to cry in any of the three routes. There is, on average, three bawling scenes per route, and at least one heartwarming scene. Let's not even start on the crowning moments, as well as music, of awesome.
* ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}''. Five routes, amounting to both five different stories, and five different aspects of the overall story, each character-driven and brilliantly reflected by the particular heroine they focus on. The protagonist is profoundly likable and human. Even the much-maligned sex scenes aren't really that bad, viewed from a relationship-building rather than erotic perspective, and the music that accompanies them is nothing short of lovely. Oh, and speaking of, the soundtrack overall is very simple, but perfectly atmospheric. Overall, the game's just a wonderful read.

* ''VisualNovel/NineHoursNinePersonsNineDoors'' most definitely deserves a mention with it's interesting puzzles, great characters who all have HiddenDepths and it's extremely twisty plot, comparable to ''VisualNovel/{{Ever17}}'' but without all the fluff.
* Anything written by [[Franchise/WhenTheyCry Ryuu]][[Manga/HiganbanaNoSakuYoruNi kishi 07]]. His works are scary, cerebral, and overall just highly entertaining.

** The MarySue revamp has brought back my faith in Wiki/TVTropes. Everyone who helped at it deserves a badge.

*** If TV Tropes were a person and I weren't asexual I'd do naughty naughty sex related things to it. If it were a person, I might do that anyway.

** If you know where to look, you can actually learn a bit from there. Like stuff about Hideaki Anno too touchy for the main wiki....

** [[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}} Warhammer Fantasy]], equally as awesome as its sci-fi spin off. A shame it doesn't get as much love on TV Tropes.

* Lamb of God is by far my favorite band. With every album they just keep getting better and better. Every member of LoG is very talented with their instruments and they know exactly how to make songs sound brutal yet aesthetically pleasing. They are original, talented, and most importantly, they sound great. They are the exact opposite of everything I hate about the music industry today. Lamb of God Forever!!!

* The Jazwares Sonic line. They paid attention to every single detail of the characters. They are even doing Mighty the Armadillio, a character who has not been seen in over a decade.

* Hasbro's MarvelUniverse line of 3.75-inch figures. They're in the same scale as the Toys/GIJoe figures, meaning that you can get some of the [[RuleOfCool craziest crossovers yet]]. Wanna see ComicBook/CaptainAmerica and Snake-Eyes teaming up against Cobra and the Red Skull? Now you most certainly can.

* Toys/MonsterHigh and Toys/EverAfterHigh are surprisingly high-quality toys, with great articulation, detailed designs and concepts that frequently [[ShownTheirWork show their work]], and very likable characters. In the case of the former, the toy challenges typical gender roles by successfully selling freaky monsters to girls, and in the latter, the themes of the plot are heavy and intelligent.

* Hasbro's Star Wars Black Series figures, which have excellent articulation and molding, and ever-improving sculpts and paintjobs that make them accessible toys but also highly displayable nerd-shrine collector's pieces.

* This page is awesome. ''This'' is what I like to think of when I think of [[Wiki/TVTropes this wiki]] - people coming together to celebrate their favourite shows, not bitch about them endlessly.

*** No, ''you're'' awesome. You're ''all'' awesome. Let's hug!

* {{LEGO}}'s Toys/{{Bionicle}} line. It has an incredibly complex backstory that literally cannot be placed within a single genre, characters that leap out at you, whether in plastic, written words, comic book pages, or tv screens, and a head-writer (Greg Farshtey) who is unbelievably devoted to his work.
