[[folder:X]]
* First of all, this folder isn't about [[Website/TwitterX the website where you make posts of 280 characters or less each]].
* XanatosGambit is not about the real name of one of the ComicBook/XMen.
* XanatosSpeedChess is not about a game of chess that goes as fast as Xanatos wants it to.
* XDaysSince is not however many days since [[WebAnimation/BattleForDreamIsland X]] did something
* The "X" in XMakesAnythingCool is not meant for you to substitute with anything you'd like. Not everything can make anything cool.
** It also isn't a more hardcore version of SmokingIsCool, but for MDMA.
** And it doesn't mean that X chills (or heats) anything to just above the freezing temperature of water.
** And it doesn't mean that putting something on Elon Musk's social media platform automatically makes it cool.
* JustForFun/XMeetsY is not a more flexible version of BoyMeetsGirl.
** Nor is it {{Shipping}} applied to the alphabet.
** It's not an origin story, either.
** It is also not a crossover between ''ComicBook/XMen'' and ''ComicBook/YTheLastMan''.
** No, it's not the third Gen VI Pokémon game after ''VideoGame/PokemonXAndY''.
** Nor is it a boy being conceived.

** It also has nothing to do with [[RuleThirtyFour Pac-Man porn]].
** Neither is it about disliking an ExpansionPack.
** And neither does it mean that it's mating season for Sean Waltman.
* The XylophoneGag is an old cartoon gag, but it's not the one where a character rams into a piano or xylophone head-first, and, upon looking up, has the instrument's keys sticking out of their mouth as a sort of prop-induced WildTake of pain.
** It's also not about shoving a xylophone into someone's mouth to shut them up.
** Nor is it someone being disgusted by xylophones.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Y]]
* YamatoNadeshiko is not about the battleship [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarships Yamato]].
** And it has nothing to do with the premise of ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV''.
* {{Yandere}} is not about a ''dere'' girl named Yan.
* YankTheDogsChain is not the same as KickTheDog, except in certain ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' shorts. Specifically, it involves the creative team inflicting pain and distress on a character, not necessarily another character.
* YeahShot is not a reply to WhyDontYouJustShootHim.

* YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe is not nearly as relevant to ''Theatre/SweeneyTodd'' as you might think.
* {{Yellowface}} should never, ever be mistaken for Yellow Face from ''WebAnimation/BattleForDreamIsland''.
** It's also not an insult directed to someone from ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''.
** Nor does it have anything to do with jaundice.
** Nor does it have anything to do with UsefulNotes/{{emojis}}.
** Nor does it refer to [[Literature/WarriorCats Yellowfang]], if she got a different [[MeaningfulRename name]].
** Nor does it have to do with Lego.
* Administrivia/YesWeDoHaveThisOne is not a waiter telling a customer that a particular dish is on the menu, nor is it a police officer telling other police officers that a particular criminal is imprisoned.
* YetAnotherChristmasCarol isn't about being frustrated with your local radio station for playing too much Christmas music in December...[[ChristmasCreep or October]]. Nor is it a page listing musicians who've covered Christmas songs.

* YokoOhNo is not the sound you make when Yoko from ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' [[spoiler: kisses someone, and the recipient dies a very, very manly death at episode's climax]].

* YouBastard is not one of the InsultTropes.
** It's also not about [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark whoever killed Kenny.]]
** It does not refer to the camel from ''Literature/{{Pyramids}}''.
** Nor is it about illegitimate children.
* YouCanAlwaysTellALiar is not about how liars make the best confidants.
* YouCanLeaveYourHatOn is not about when some rich person decides guest etiquette is overrated.
** It's also not a tactful way to tell someone to PleaseKeepYourHatOn.
* YouCantFightFate is regularly disproved on ''Franchise/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'', but not because people go around successfully picking fights with the DarkMagicalGirl. Incidentally, these Fate puns are way too easy to make.
** If you're [[Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi Negi Springfield]] on the other hand... good luck.
* YouCantGetYeFlask is not an example of YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe.

** Nor is it about attempting to fit the entire contents of the internet onto dvds.

* YouLoseAtZeroTrust is not a double negative about excessive naivete.
** Nor is it about how your ZeroApprovalGambit failed because for some reason people still like you.
** Nor is it about a game where you have to prevent a company called Zero from becoming a monopoly.
** Or one where you lose when [[Franchise/MegaMan a blonde, sword-wielding Reploid]] trusts you.
* YouNoTakeCandle is not a subtrope of YouCantGetYeFlask where you actually can pick up the item, but doing so triggers every NPC in the area to turn hostile.
** While it does involve bad grammar, it's also not specifically someone telling you in bad grammar not to take a candle.
* YouPutTheXInXY is unrelated to female genetic material, or by extension someone being InTouchWithHisFeminineSide.
** And you would be completely and utterly wrong if you thought it had anything to do with a Music/{{Coldplay}} album or [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY Gen VI]] of Franchise/{{Pokemon}}.
** It also has absolutely nothing to do with [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola hyperbolae]], though the trope does often create hyperbole.

* YourMom is not about an {{Everyman}}'s mom.
* YouShouldntKnowThisAlready is not a redirect to [[LateArrivalSpoiler "Early Arrival Spoiler"]].

* YourSecretsSafeWithMeSuperman is not what Lois Lane said to ComicBook/{{Superman}} when he told her that he was an alien from outer space.
* YourSizeMayVary has nothing to do with any sort of "male enlargement."
** Nor should it be confused with SizeShifter.
** It isn't a trope for which "[[YMMV/HomePage Your Mileage May Vary]]".
* YourTelevisionHatesYou ''isn't'' the equivalent of MyCarHatesMe; that is, it's not about a TV that breaks down when it's needed the most. It's also not to be confused with JustForFun/TelevisionIsTryingToKillUs.
* YourVampiresSuck does not necessarily have to do with the way that they feed.
* A [[ForumSpeak YouTube War Expert]] is not someone who's very good at decisively winning {{Flame War}}s on Website/YouTube, though your typical example is quite experienced at being in flame wars.
* YoungGun is about young people using guns to protect themselves. ''Film/YoungGuns'' is the name of a movie.
** Neither is it about a recently manufactured firearm.
* YouWannaGetSued is not spoken between people whose hobby is getting themselves sued.
* YouWouldntHitAGuyWithGlasses is not about hitting, or not hitting, someone with drinking glasses or glass bottles during a BarBrawl.
** It's also not about targeting a person who's carrying drinking glasses in a fight.
** Nor is it about using a pair of glasses as a weapon. [[WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph Except for when it is]].
* YoYoPlotPoint is not about the author stopping to greet the viewer to remind him/her about plot points.
** Nor is it about a rap song concerning story structure.
** Nor is it necessarily about a yo-yo that happens to ''be'' a plot point.
* YuriFan is not in any way related to the villain from ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert2'', the hero from ''VideoGame/ShadowHearts'', the guy who spends half of ''Anime/{{Planetes}}'' looking for a compass, the voice actor that plays [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Sasuke]] and [[Anime/CodeGeass Suzaku]] in English, the male lead of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyCrystalChronicles: Ring of Fates'', or the titular doctor in ''Literature/DoctorZhivago''. Or at the very least, we ''hope'' it isn't... It ''does'', however, occasionally describe some fans of ''The Literature/DirtyPair''. Or even the lead character of ''VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia''.
** Or somebody who's a fan of UsefulNotes/YuriGagarin, the first person in space, though he does have a lot of fans.
** Not a trope namer for one of the ''VideoGame/ArtOfFighting'' characters or one of the ''VideoGame/MysticWarriors''.
** Nor is it a female desk fan who loves other female desk fans.
** Nor is it someone who likes [[Literature/{{STINKBOMB}} Yuri Vilenemi]].
* {{Yuri Genre}} is still not about UsefulNotes/YuriGagarin.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Z]]
* A ZanySchemeChicken is not when someone uses a chicken (whether rubber or alive) in a ZanyScheme, a chicken that frequently engages in Zany Schemes, nor is it chicken eaten by characters before they engage in a Zany Scheme.
** Nor is it a character who starts a zany scheme, but chickens out before it's completed.
* A ZenSurvivor probably did not survive [[VideoGame/{{Shinobido}} Zen the Tiger Lily]]. It also has nothing to do with those who have survived [[VideoGame/HalfLife Xen]].
* ZeppelinsFromAnotherWorld has absolutely nothing to do with Music/LedZeppelin.
* A ZergRush has nothing to do with the tactics of the woman who broke Ken Jennings' win streak on ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}''.
** Nor [[Franchise/ToyStory Emperor Zurg]].
* A ZeroApprovalGambit does not involve getting the favour of [[Anime/CodeGeass the leader of the Black Knights.]]
** Nor is it a gambit that none of the higher-ups give permission to use.
** It's also not when nobody agrees with [[ComicBook/{{Gambit}} a particular card carrying X-Men]].
** Nor is it a gambit where the end goal is getting people to approve of [[VideoGame/MegaManX X's sidekick]].
* ZeroEffortBoss is not [[PointyHairedBoss a boss who puts zero effort into his job]].
* ZeroGSpot is not a woman lacking one. Nor is it proof that a particular ''VideoGame/MegaManX'' character is actually a girl.
** It's also not a localized area on Earth not bound by gravity.
* JustForFun/TheZerothLawOfTropeExamples is not "protecting humanity as a whole trumps obeying the [[ThreeLawsCompliant Three Laws of Robotics]]".
* ZerothLawRebellion does not involve going back in time and writing something that becomes the TropeCodifier for a trope Shakespeare currently codified, nor does it have to do with [[Anime/CodeGeass Lelouch]] piloting a copy of the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Wing Zero Custom]] in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsDD''.
* ZigZagged tropes are not to do with that [[WesternAnimation/TheThiefAndTheCobbler Zigzag.]]
* ZillionDollarBill isn't about Bill Gates' net worth, nor is it an example of a ShockinglyExpensiveBill.
* A ZombieAdvocate is not necessarily an [[Literature/{{Discworld}} undead lawyer]]. Nor is it a lawyer without a soul (we have [[EvilLawyerJoke other]] [[AmoralAttorney tropes]] for ''that'').
** Nor is it necessarily a zombie who advocates for a certain cause.
