Go To


1	'''Basic Trope''': An obnoxiously schmoopy couple have a mock argument over who should end the call first.
2	* '''Straight''': At the end of a conversation with Alice, Bob tells Alice, "You hang up first." And Alice replies playfully with, "No, you hang up first!"
3	* '''Exaggerated''': This banter continues all night long.
4	* '''Downplayed''': After being told to hang up, Alice is very reluctant.
5	* '''Justified''': Alice and Bob are a very schmoopy couple, trying to be cute.
6	* '''Inverted''': Bob and Alice hang up at the same time. Bob and Alice try and time when to call each other at the appropriately.
7	* '''Subverted''': "No, ''you'' hang up first!" "Talk to you later, sugar!" ''Click!''
8	* '''Double Subverted''': But then she texts Bob or calls him back, saying she was just playing with him.
9	* '''Parodied''':
10	** Alice and Bob are breaking up: "No, you move on first."
11	** Bob (who is in the military) is ''supposed'' to radio a squadmate, but is instead using the radio to play this game with his girlfriend.
12	** Rather than being done with ending a phone call, it's done with some other action, such as leaving the house.
13	** This mock argument goes on for several days straight, and Alice and Bob both have bloodshot eyes and undereye bags and other obvious signs of exhaustion, but are [[{{Determinator}} still going]].
14	* '''Zig Zagged''': ???
15	* '''Averted''': Alice and Bob simply end the phone call normally.
16	* '''Enforced''': "How about we use RuleOfFunny for an annoying couple?"
17	* '''Lampshaded''': "Oh, are we doing the whole 'you-hang-up-first' thing? That's so romantic!"
18	* '''Invoked''': Alice and Bob decide to be cute on the phone.
19	* '''Exploited''': ???
20	* '''Defied''':
21	** Alice and Bob think this is stupid and decide not to do this.
22	** Someone hits the receiver, immediately ending the call.
23	* '''Discussed''': ???
24	* '''Conversed''': ???
25	* '''Deconstructed''':
26	** This is ''really'' annoying for others who have to use the phone or others (such as roommates or siblings) who have to listen to them.
27	** If the story takes place [[TechnologyMarchesOn in an era before cell phones]], AliceAndBob tying up the phone like this could prevent an important call, such as one made to EmergencyServices.
28	* '''Reconstructed''': Alice and Bob keep their schmoopiness to levels where it won't be annoying to themselves or others, and let their love mature from "the butterflies" into real love.
