Line #15 PlayingWith/ToiletHumour


1	'''Basic Trope''': Toilets and related bodily functions used as a source of (usually lowbrow) humor.
2	* '''Straight''': [[{{Gasshole}} Bob]] farts.
3	* '''Exaggerated''':
4	** Every single joke is derived from toilets and related bodily functions.
5	** Bob farts. [[SerialEscalation Alice poops her pants. Bob experiences diarrhea.]] Alice then farts so much that both AliceAndBob die.
6	* '''Downplayed''': Bob makes a fart joke, though no actual farting is shown.
7	* '''Justified''': Bob suffers from [[{{Gasshole}} flatulence issues]].
8	* '''Inverted''': [[ToiletHorror Detectives find a dead woman in the bathroom; the bathroom is there, but the humor is not]].
9	* '''Subverted''': Bob's farting [[CerebusRetcon is treated more as a]] MoralEventHorizon [[CerebusRetcon crossover]].
10	* '''Double Subverted''': But then becomes a funny anecdote later on.
11	* '''Parodied''':
12	** Bob's fart is so bad, it manages to kill someone.
13	** AliceAndBob are 2 toilets who do stand-up comedy.
14	** David laughs at Bob farting so much that he farts too. Fred laughs at David farting so much that he farts too. Ad infinitium until methane emissions across the world have spontaneously increased.
15	* '''Zig Zagged''': Some jokes in the series revolve around bathroom humor, but not necessarily.
16	* '''Averted''':
17	** NobodyPoops
18	** BottomlessBladder
19	* '''Enforced''':
20	** RuleOfFunny for a GrossOutShow.
21	** The episode is actually written by a young child. (ContestWinnerCameo or otherwise)
22	* '''Lampshaded''': ''"Great, just what we need: a fart joke."''
23	* '''Invoked''': Bob farts, and everyone starts laughing at him.
24	* '''Exploited''': Before fighting the BigBad, Emperor Evulz, Bob tells him a fart joke. Evulz finds it so funny that he cancels his plan, or at the very least is distracted enough to get defeated.
25	* '''Defied''': Nobody laughs at bodily functions, and the people who carry out said bodily functions leave the room to do so.
26	* '''Discussed''': "You don't seriously find fart jokes funny, do you?"
27	* '''Conversed''': "Fart jokes: they've been [[{{Cliche}} done to death!]]" "Maybe so, but [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools they're funny!]]"
28	* '''Implied''': Bob eats several burritos. It's never shown, but it's implied that [[NoodleIncident the results weren't pretty]].
29	* '''Deconstructed''': After age 7 or so (perhaps earlier for girls, who are expected to be [[WomenAreWiser more polite and refined than their]] SpearCounterpart), this sort of stuff is seen as immature, rude, and disgusting.
30	* '''Reconstructed''': There are times when it's OK to joke about this stuff, and times when it's not. As long as everyone knows which it is, no one will be offended.
31	* '''Played For Laughs''': Bob farts a tune of some sort, and the entire elevator starts singing along, only to keel over from the gas.
32	* '''Played For Drama''':
33	** Bob gets a kick out of farting for people's amusement, but it embarrasses and disgusts his girlfriend, [[LoveInterest Alice]]. He must choose between his love or the attention she gets.
34	** PottyEmergency of which PottyFailure would be a particularly embarrassing result, like say, [[INeedAnIndexByMonday at work.]]
