1	'''Basic Trope''': A character pretends to laugh along with the others, then abruptly tells them to shut up.
2	* '''Straight''':
3	** Bob asks his boss Alice for a pay raise. She laughs, then suddenly stops smiling and says seriously "No!"
4	** Bob says to Alice, "Are you angry with me?" Alice laughs, then abruptly stops and says seriously "Yes I am!"
5	** Bob tells a joke, to which Alice pretends to laugh, and then stops smiling and says "No."
6	* '''Exaggerated''': Alice laughs with Bob, then stops smiling, [[YouHaveFailedMe pulls out a gun and shoots him.]]
7	* '''Downplayed''':
8	** Alice laughs with Bob, then says "Actually, it isn't really that funny."
9	** Bob makes an audacious suggestion Alice legitimately thinks is funny; she laughs, then admits that she can't allow it despite liking it.
10	** Alice finds Bob's hilarious request ActuallyPrettyFunny, but she had to suppress her chuckling before telling Bob that he's not getting it.
11	* '''Justified''':
12	** Bob's request was an audacious and silly one.
13	** Alice was laughing because she was tickled or finished reading a joke or watching something funny right after Bob made his request.
14	* '''Inverted''':
15	** We expect Alice to react to Bob with anger, or at least a refusal to entertain what he said. She pretends to do this for a moment, and then suddenly starts laughing or says "Yes!".
16	** Bob poses a request or question that Alice deems he should not even have to ask her. She makes her point by sarcastically pretending to decline or refuse.
17	** Bob asks his boss Alice for a pay raise. She immediately yells, "No!" and starts laughing.
18	* '''Subverted''': Alice begins laughing with Bob. Because of the nature of what he said, or Alice's character, we expect her to stop laughing and say "No!" but she doesn't.
19	* '''Double Subverted''': ...The "No!" comes after all, just later than we expected.
20	* '''Parodied''': Alice doesn't stop laughing when she says "No!"
21	* '''Zig Zagged''': Hahahahaha no... HAHAHAHAHA YES! HAHAHAHA but seriously, no.
22	* '''Averted''': Alice does not laugh, but gives a serious answer without using sarcasm.
23	* '''Enforced''': "We want a minor version of a HopeSpot, like a simple 'unexpected no'.
24	* '''Lampshaded''': "Why does Alice laugh before shooting my ideas down?"
25	* '''Invoked''': ???
26	* '''Exploited''': Bob films Alice's reactions to various ideas he has, then takes the footage out of context.
27	* '''Defied''': Alice dislikes getting people's hopes up and gives all answers straight.
28	* '''Discussed''': "If I ask Alice for a raise, she'll just laugh and then say no".
29	* '''Conversed''': ???
