Line #15 PlayingWith/HorribleCampingTrip


1	'''Basic Trope''': A camping holiday [[GoneHorriblyWrong goes horribly wrong]] for any of a number of reasons.
2	* '''Straight''':
3	** Alice and Bob go on a camping holiday and get CabinFever.
4	** Clare and Dave are on a camping trip, but find themselves in a RainRainGoAway situation.
5	** Emma and Frank have gone to the campsite for the weekend, but can't light a fire.
6	* '''Exaggerated''':
7	** Either those on the holiday end up dead for some reason, or a disaster leads to the entire campsite being destroyed.
8	** Campers cannot light a fire [[EpicFail while it is]] ''[[HowUnscientific raining]]''.
9	** A CampingEpisode in the series ends with everyone dead and the world destroyed.
10	** DontGoInTheWoods
11	* '''Downplayed''': Alice, Bob, Clare, Dave, Emma or Frank get homesick on the camping holiday.
12	* '''Justified''':
13	** It's their first time camping, and they do not know how to do this correctly. This one ties in with the 'cannot light a fire' scenario.
14	** Alternatively, misfortune follows the campers everywhere they go.
15	* '''Inverted''': The camping trip goes so well the campers decide to live on the campsite full time.
16	* '''Subverted''': Alice, Bob, Clare, Dave, Emma and[=/=]or Frank imagines that the trip will go wrong, but it does not.
17	* '''Double Subverted''': ...Until something happens and the trip is judged to have gone wrong.
18	* '''Parodied''': The ruined holiday was staged, but things happened that [[GoneHorriblyRight genuinely did not go their way]].
19	* '''Zig Zagged''': Things go wrong one day, and things go right the next.
20	* '''Averted''': The camping trip goes very well.
21	* '''Enforced''': It's a camping comedy, things have to go wrong.
22	* '''Lampshaded''': "God, this makes me think I do not want to go camping again!"
23	* '''Invoked''': The campers have an enemy (let's say he or she is their main enemy) who appears in dramatic fashion and ruins the holiday.
24	* '''Exploited''': The ruined holiday was staged as a fraud.
25	* '''Defied''': A camping trip is considered, but not embarked on because the holidaymakers think things will go wrong.
26	* '''Discussed''': "How come disaster follows us on our camping holidays?"
27	* '''Conversed''': "I hear Alice and Bob's last camping trip was a nightmare."
28	* '''Played For Laughs''':
29	** Alice, Bob, Clare, Dave, Emma and Frank all suffer a tremendous HumiliationConga during their holiday camping trip.
30	** The things that made the horrible camping trip "horrible" are FauxHorrific or absurdist like camping next to a retreat [[EveryoneHatesMimes for mimes]], accidentally buying tofu hot dogs, or the only tabletop game they brought with them being Parcheesi.
31	* '''Played For Drama''': Half of the campgoers are infected with dysentery, and the other half gets broken bones, are mauled by a dog, are fired from their job because [[GeorgeJetsonJobSecurity their boss really got pissed that they took a weekend off]] and damage their car suspension bad enough that the price tag screws their credit rate.
32	* '''Played For Horror''': The campgoers' HumiliationConga is the opening "comedy" part of a DontGoInTheWoods HillbillyHorrors film. Things [[CerebusSyndrome become very dark very fast]] in the middle act.
