History PlayingWith / PoorMansPorn

* '''Downplayed''':
** When he comes upon or is shown a lingerie catalog, Bob raises an eyebrow, but then goes on with what he was doing.

** Bob is lonely and HollywoodDateless and receives a lingerie catalogue in the mail, and the girl on the cover is a real turn-on for him.

* '''Straight''': Bob is seen drooling over (and possibly [[ADateWithRosiePalms masturbating to]]) a lingerie catalog that came in the mail.

** Bob is in a position where he can't access pornography, so he makes do with any material he can access that happens to contain anything remotely arousing.

* '''Subverted''': Bob looks through the lingerie catalogue, with the intention of finding something to order for Alice to wear for him.

* '''Implied''': When going through the basement of Bob's childhood home Alice comes across boxes of ''[[BlandNameProduct International Geographic]]'' [[PornStash magazines]]. When asked Bob replies "Yeah, I was [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar really into that when I was a kid.]]"

* '''Downplayed''': When he comes upon or is shown a lingerie catalog, Bob raises an eyebrow, but then goes on with what he was doing.

--> '''Bob''': ''reading a magazine about pie'' Ohh...they're showing ''the filling'' now! Can they do that?

* '''Averted''': Bob doesn't masturbate to the lingerie catalog.
* '''Enforced''': RuleOfFunny

* '''Invoked''': Bob is lonely and HollywoodDateless, and receives a lingerie catalogue in the mail, and the girl on the cover is a real turn-on for him.

* '''Played For Horror''': While the stash looks like it is composed of typical magazines on the outside, Bob has actually hid some seriously disturbing things within, such as images of a real (at least in-universe) lingerie-clad woman who had been brutally murdered and dismembered a few years ago.

* '''Exploited''': A doctor who needs a sperm sample from his/her patients keeps these in the back room so it's easier to... gather specimens.

* '''Played For Laughs''': Bob's PornStash is composed by some seriously strange magazines, such as [[GunPorn guns magazines]]. There is not a single picture of a girl (nor guy) in them, yet Alice reacts to the pictures as if she had just seen her grandmother dearest in a PrimalScene.

** Actual pornography is not available where Bob is.

* '''Parodied''': Bob tries to buy a MailOrderBride from the lingerie catalog.

** Whatever serves as FetishFuel for Bob is [[TheTheoremOfNarrowInterests not featured in any pornography of a high enough standard that he will watch it,]] so Bob uses the magazines to get his imagination going.

** The story is set before the Internet existed, and Bob is too embarrassed to obtain real pornographic material.

* '''Conversed''': "I'm starting to wonder if Bob is meant to be a TakeThat at people who create RuleThiryFour-art."

** Bob is using porn for innocent reasons, namely as a source of cheap aristic references.

* '''Exploited''': A doctor who needs a sperm sample from his/her patients keeps these in the back room so it's easier to...gather specimens.
* '''Defied''': Bob is not interested, or at least doesn't want to upset Alice, so he throws the catalog in the trash.
* '''Discussed''': Bob says "You know a lot of things can be used as porn that don't seem like porn at first glance."
* '''Conversed''': ???
* '''Implied''': When going through the basement of Bob's childhood home Alice comes across boxes of ''[[BlandNameProduct International Geographic]]'' [[PornStash magazines]]. When asked Bob replies "Yeah I was [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar really into that when I was a kid.]]"

* '''Played For Laughs''': Bob's PornStash is composed by some seriously strange magazines, like [[GunPorn guns magazines]]! (just to name one example) They don't even have a single girl (nor guy) in them, guns are the only things in them!
