''IMPORTANT NOTE: Since anyone can edit this wiki, a lot of the {{Running Gag}}s listed here may have been removed or changed (especially if they would technically be considered Administrivia/{{Natter}}). Please keep that in mind while reading and/or editing this page.''
----
* Whenever someone asks a question better suited to TropeFinder in AskTheTropers, inevitably someone would mention a Big Green Banner (or by extension the [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk Hulk]]) before said banner was removed. Even after the banner's removal, it still shows up on occasion.
* JustForFun/{{Egregious}}. It even has a place in the DrinkingGame/TVTropesDrinkingGame!
* ''Film/{{Zardoz}}'': The penis is '''evil'''.
* Many pages which reference the ''Series/RedDwarf'' character Ace (what a guy!) will contain the in-show response to his arrival. The page itself has three. TheAce.LiveActionTV even lampshades it. What a guy.
* ThisIsADrill with ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' references, and GrapplingHookPistol with Franchise/{{Batman}}.
* MindScrew and GainaxEnding potholed near ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion''.
* The the page for ''[[SelfDemonstrating/TheEyeCreatures Attack of the The Eye Creatures]]'' duplicates every instance of the the word "the".
** The.
* Any mention of the Reavers from ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' invariably leads to the description of them raping you to death, eating your flesh and sewing your skin into their clothing, as well as the mention that if you're lucky it'll be InThatOrder.
** Any mention of anything remotely sexy from ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' will lead to someone [[IllBeInMyBunk going to their bunk...]]
* Is there an entry on this wiki that mentions ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' without either linking to EvenTheGuysWantHim or mentioning Snake's ass?
** ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'', huh? Or an entry which doesn't mention the series' love of ParrotExposition?
*** [[SelfDemonstratingArticle Love of Parrot Exposition?!]]
** Also, "[[MindScrew We think]]" on many entries about the series, particularly ''VideoGame/{{Metal Gear Solid 2|SonsOfLiberty}}''.
* For WMG: "Character X is a [[Series/DoctorWho Time]] [[WMG/TimeLord Lord]]."
** "Y is their TARDIS".
** Character X is [[Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya Haruhi]].
** "Series X is an AlternateUniverse of ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion''."
** "X is powered by [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Spiral Energy]]."
* Anyone who is a sufficiently LargeHam will get their name spelled in all-caps. Examples include:
** Creator/{{BRIAN BLESSED}}
** Creator/{{DAN GREEN}}
** ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'''s ComicBook/{{AQUAMAN}}.
* Certain characters have a sufficiently impressive LargeHamTitle that Tropers like to include at every opportunity:
** '''[[VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness Captain Gordon, Defender of Earth]]''' (Yes, the bold text is part of the gag too.)
** Literature/CiaphasCain, [[FakeUltimateHero HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!]]
** [[Webcomic/GirlGenius Othar Tryggvassen]], GentlemanAdventurer!
* Creator/FrankMiller: whores, repetition, and the word goddamn. And repet-- OW!
* ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'''s [[BishieSparkle sparkling]] [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampires]].
* Every page mentioning ''WesternAnimation/MuchaLucha'' would like to remind you that it takes place at the '''''[[NoIndoorVoice FOREMOST, WORLD RENOWNED, INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF LUCHA!!!!]]'''''
* Every separate page in the ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' series is described as "The (number) entry in the (ridiculous adjective depicting massive body harm)ly popular ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' series". This gets {{lampshade|Hanging}}d in the page for ''Videogame/{{Final Fantasy XI}}'', which is described as "thesaurus-exhaustingly popular".
** There seem to be a lot of crunches, as well. One has to wonder how you make your toe do exercise [[{{Pun}} crunches.]]
* ''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya'': "We've entered an endless recursion of time... Kyon-kun, denwa..." and it keeps going for a thousand more lines.
* Every instrument solo in the Music/VanHalen pages.
* Check out the DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment for a long running gag.
* On several pages, it opens with some variation of "JustForFun/DescribeTopicHere," in such a way that demonstrates the article in question. For example, on the ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' page, it says "Pootiscription here," referencing the Heavy Weapons Guy's [[Memes/TeamFortress2 memetic quote]] "Pootispenser here" (Put dispenser here).
* Questioning Zordon's rules, especially with a {{Jerkass}} course of action, will usually result in a variation of "...and that is why you're not a Power Ranger" on the ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' {{Headscratchers/Headscratchers}} page.
* From ''ComicBook/MisterMiracle2017'': '''Darkseid Is'''.
* Almost every entry in WearingAFlagOnYourHead will make some reference to [[WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries AMERICA]] somehow. Even if it's discussing something IN BRAZIL, or AUSTRALIA, or SOME OTHER COUNTRY.
* [[LoadsAndLoadsOfLoading Loading.... ]]
* The page for ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII'' seems intent on reminding you that you FIGHT THE POPE!
* The ''Manga/DNAngel'' page pointing out that the series has lots and lots of HoYay.
* Deer being described as in season and tasting good smoked and/or made into sausage on the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon {{Headscratchers/Headscratchers}} Page.
* Check out the DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment for a long running gag.
* [[Recap/DoctorWho20thASTheFiveDoctors The episode recap]] of Rassilon, and (name of exotic alien planet) being potholed to BBCQuarry.
* Every sub-page for ''VideoGame/WarioWare'' has a short instruction at the beginning (ex. [[JustForFun/DescribeTopicHere DESCRIBE!]]), like the instructions given to the player before microgames. Originally, the ''whole'' description was divided by instructions, but this was eventually excised.
* ''Series/CSIMiami''. Like you didn't... [[GlassesPull * Sunglasses Pull* ]] see it coming. '''''[[Music/TheWho YEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!]]'''''.
* Whenever anyone mentions ''TabletopGame/{{Paranoia}}'' someone is ''bound'' to respond with one of the in-game catchphrases.
** Speaking badly of Alpha Complex and Friend Computer is a treason, you commie mutant traitor!!
** Metagaming is grounds for summary execution. Both the above tropers should report to FriendComputer.
** The main page itself will remind the readers at several points of actions (usually something described in the page previously) that are considered treason.[[note]]Calling attention to the notes referring to acts of treason is an act of treason.[[/note]]
* Whenever a page has ''Manga/TegamiBachiLetterBee'' on it (Truthfully, it ''needs'' more recognition), expect to see the word '''Heart''' bolded, probably because in the manga, that's how it is.
* [[RuleOfThree Check out the]] DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment for a long running gag.
* Potholing the third instance of a running gag to RuleOfThree.
* Whenever anyone mentions just how Badass Mickey Mouse is in the ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' series, they will assure you that, yes, they are talking about ''that'' Mickey Mouse.
* No matter the subject matter, there's a good chance there is an entry mentioning how ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics'' used that trope. Although this may not have been intended as a running gag, it has emerged as one. And if not that, then ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''. Or ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''.
* On ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'' page 'in other words, perfect Disney tradition!' seems to be one since it's been potholed to this very page.
* Many of the trope examples in ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'' are augmented with quotes from the movie; you can't read any section of the trope page without seeing at least one. Apparently, the dialogue is just that good.
* Use of the "it's definitely not VideoGame/{{Stonkers}}" gag on at least one {{Headscratchers/Headscratchers}} page that has nothing to do with VideoGames nor the Platform/ZXSpectrum.
* The pages for ''Film/MadMax'' films all have jokes based on Music/MenAtWork's "Down Under" with the lyrics changed to fit the films. To name an example from the linked page: "''Livin' in a land down under. With [[Film/MadMaxFuryRoad Immortan Joe]] and [[Film/MadMax1 Toecutter]].''"
* A comment that something is [[Film/HotFuzz for the greater good]]...
** Followed by the echo, "The greater good"...
*** Followed by the response: "[[BigShutUp SHUT IT!!]]"
* The doctor (no, not ''[[Series/DoctorWho that]]'' Doctor).
* On the ''Series/BurnNotice'' page, Larry (yes, dead Larry).
* [[OverlyLongGag Want a long running gag?]] Check out the DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment.
* Potholing the fourth instance of a running gag to OverlyLongGag.
* We're ''almost'' certain that Creator/AlanMoore isn't actually UsefulNotes/RasputinTheMadMonk using a fake name. ''Almost''.
* As you'll see on ''Film/TheQuietMan'' page, the main character of that movie is Sean Thornton-er, Creator/JohnWayne.
* The pages on the ''Franchise/{{Fallout}}'' series would like to remind you that [[VideoGame/{{Fallout1}} Vault 13]], [[VideoGame/{{Fallout 2}} Arroyo]], [[VideoGame/{{Fallout 3}} Vault 101]], [[VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas the Mojave Wasteland]], [[Videogame/{{Fallout 4}} the Massachusetts suburbs]] and [[VideoGame/Fallout76 Vault 76]] are all okay places to live. Hopefully, [[VideoGame/FalloutShelter you can make your own okay place to live]], or at least a place more okay than [[VideoGame/FalloutBrotherhoodOfSteel Texas]]. Various ''Fallout'' fan work pages incorporate the gag too.
* Forum Game ITT: Roleplay/WeAreAllPokemonTrainers. The frat Mon party. That is all.
* From the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12948958230A92097100&page=1 Anime Theme Song Game]]: Is it [[Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya God Knows]]?
* For WMG: X never wanted to be a Y anyway. He wanted to be... [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus A LUMBERJACK!]]
* Also for WMG: Everything in the series was just X's DyingDream/hallucination.
* It is not uncommon to see "Necrophilia is awesome" on the DarthWiki/WarpThatAesop page
* Look on the pages referencing ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'' and try to find a page that doesn't get [[{{Pun}} Botch's]]-- ahem, ''[[SelfDemonstratingArticle Butch's]]'' name wrong. It will, without fail, be followed by "THE NAME IS BUTCH!"
* There are some articles on this site that tropers [[Administrivia/PotholeMagnet can't get enough of potholing to]].
* Has it been mentioned that the DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment has a long running gag?
* WelcomeToCorneria!
** [[SwordTropes I Like Swords]]. [[note]]See the image on that trope page. It helps that "I like swords" is named for [[Webcomic/EightBitTheater Fighter McWarrior]].[[/note]]
* [[Memes/ProfessionalWrestling Arm]][[Wrestling/ChrisJericho bar]]!
* When Franchise/{{Batman}} appears on a character page, one must always note that HIS PARENTS ARE DEEAAAAAAAD!!!
** Also, expect the phrase "I'm Batman." to pop up a few times. But if you're talking about his ''ComicBook/AllStarBatmanAndRobinTheBoyWonder'' incarnation, he's the ''goddamn'' Batman.
* ''VideoGame/RobotUnicornAttack'' being the most '''awesome''' game ever. ''Harmony harmony oh love...''
* Many mentions of ''Series/TattooedTeenageAlienFightersFromBeverlyHills'' include a NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer saying that it's a real series and not just invented by Creator/TeamFourStar for a joke in ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged''.
* The page for the NES ''VideoGame/{{A Nightmare on Elm Street|NES}}'' game will not let you forget that the name Freddy Krueger[[TradeSnark ™]] is trademarked.
* JustForFun/StatlerAndWaldorf being at the bottom of the page, with a full list on the page. Includes the page itself.
* The ''Series/SesameStreet'' pages have paratext over tropes whose actual names include expletives or other objectionable terms. As a result, Oscar is labeled as a [[{{Jerkass}} Jerkbutt]].
* "The mind boggles..."
* Every ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' page must ask if the characters in their images are [[MarthDebutedInSmashBros Marth and/or Roy]]. This is usually played with when it ''is'' one of them. Played with even more with ''VideoGame/TearRingSaga'' and ''VideoGame/BerwickSaga''.
** The Laconic page for every ''Fire Emblem'' game must also bring up if a character (or characters) from the game appears in VideoGame/SuperSmashBros (in the form of a JustForFun/TheOneWith).
* Any time [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]] is mentioned, someone has to point out that he was able to build his PoweredArmor [[MemeticMutation IN A CAVE! WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!]]
* Any trope related to ThoseWackyNazis usually begins with telling us that, with few exceptions, most people consider the Nazis to have been very, ''very'' bad people.
* Whenever anyone mentions Hedy Lamarr from ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' it must always followed up with 'That's "Hedley!"', a running gag borrowed from the movie itself. Except on the actual Creator/HedyLamarr's page, where it really is Hedy.
* ''Film/NightOfTheLepus'' doesn't try to hide that the monsters are '''[[KillerRabbit Giant Killer Bunny Rabbits]]'''.
* [[OverlyLongGag By the way, how about the]] DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment?
* ''VideoGame/{{Evony}}'' - It's a spyware program in disguise.
* AKA47 being potholed near ''VideoGame/PaydayTheHeist'' and ''VideoGame/Payday2'' on the Cool Guns pages when it existed.
* Every time ''VideoGame/{{Prototype}}'' is mentioned, we kindly remind you that Alex Mercer [[ImAHumanitarian eats people]].
* The majority of the Laconic descriptions for the ArtisticLicense subjects[[note]] and WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma [[/note]] used to be written: "X DO/ES NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOOD NIGHT!" in reference to ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''.
* Most of the UsefulNotes pages regarding [[ForcesWithFirepower the nuclear arsenals of various countries]] used to have the corresponding country's line in Music/TomLehrer's "Who's Next?" for a quote, with "Who's next?" often being a pothole to the page that corresponds to the next line. As of the end of 2020 only UsefulNotes/TheDragonsTeeth and UsefulNotes/TheRestOfTheNuclearClub still have the quote... which one's next?
* The replacement of the letter "s" with "ſ" in AntiquatedLinguistics.
* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
** On the Recap pages for the Sixth Doctor era, all of the picture captions reference his [[ImpossiblyCoolClothes rainbow coat]]. This even extends to [[Recap/DoctorWhoS24E1TimeAndTheRani "Time and the Rani"]] (which features his regeneration into the Seventh Doctor at the start), [[Recap/DoctorWho30thASDimensionsInTime "Dimensions in Time"]] (a multi-Doctor story featuring him), and some of the Expanded Universe stories starring him.
** Also, keeping with the RunningGag in the main series, we all know who Harriet Jones is.
* Referring to Larry Blamire as "That lucky bastard" when [[MsFanservice commenting on the attractiveness]] [[Film/TheLostSkeletonOfCadavra of his wife]] [[Film/DarkAndStormyNight who appears in his films]]
* Recap pages for ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' episodes than end on a CliffHanger usually end by describing in what manner the villain has the heroes hopelessly on the ropes. *[[MoodWhiplash Cue happy credits music]]* It's started spreading to other shows when episodes end in the same kind of MoodWhiplash.
* If [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Major Armstrong]] is in a trope, someone has noted that the trope [[LargeHam HAS BEEN PASSED DOWN THROUGH THE ARMSTRONG FAMILY FOR GENERATIONS!]] [[BishieSparkle *sparkle*]]
* SymbologyResearchFailure has an example of a common and much-repeated mistake, where something called the Kremlin in a work... is actually St. Basil's Cathedral.
* Lampooning [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Kaepora Gaebora's]] AnnoyingVideoGameHelper nature wherever appropriate. Do you want to hear what I said again?
-->->Yes
-->No
* Lampooning [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Kaepora Gaebora's]] AnnoyingVideoGameHelper nature wherever appropriate. Do you want to hear what I said again?
-->Yes
-->->No
* The page for SandWorm has repeating "Franchise/{{Dune}}" periodically. It's not intentional, as Dune ''has'' been adapted to several media, but it still looks like a running gag.
* A minor gag on ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'' and its subpages involves the misspelling of Weselton as Weaseltown. The Duke of Weselton inevitably disregards our Administrivia/RepairDontRespond policy to call us out on it.
* ''[[WMG/PlantsVsZombies Plants vs. Zombies]]''' WMG page would like to remind you that Crazy Dave is CRAAAAAAAZY!
* The [[JustForFun/DrinkingGame Drinking Games]] often have a "don't drink every time [super-common thing in that work] happens, or you will die" condition.
* The ''Franchise/DragonAge'' pages joking about the blood motifs.
* Superheroes from Franchise/TheDCU, particularly members of the Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica, will get introductions to their pages listing off various titles the hero has, followed by "'''''[[TropeCodifier The]]''''' (whatever superhero archetype that hero belongs to)".
* The LaconicWiki entries for most OurMonstersAreDifferent tropes used some variation of "The original myths couldn't keep the details straight, either." This laconic template also used to apply to OurPresidentsAreDifferent.
* Small-caps, or just a different format in general, is mandatory whenever talking about something happening [[foldercontrol]]

[[folder: [[Just For Fun/Recycled In Space IN SPACE! ]]
]]. Same with the exclamation mark.
* Back when Headscratchers was called "It Just Bugs Me", there was a page on "school". Someone asked why people don't like school, and got a bunch of responses. Naturally someone responded with "Learn to Box", prompting a "You get expelled for that" response.
* The CompleteMonster cleanup thread has entire posts dedicated to [[BewareTheCuteOnes how dangerous an individual BB-8 is]], to the point where he's gotten more upvotes than any actual CM.
* Every caption for a ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' game asks if you/someone else is [[MemeticMutation ready]]. This extends to its fan-games, with variations: e.g. [[VideoGame/{{Popgoes}} "Are you disposed to play POPGOES?"]] or [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtCandys "Everything's dandy when you're with Candy!"]]
* Most [[Franchise/SpyroTheDragon Spyro games]] have a caption with the keywords "legend" and "generation" inserted within it.
* The captions for the images on the SugarWiki/AndTheFandomRejoiced [[AndTheFandomRejoiced/SuperSmashBros pages for]] ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' all mention how much the internet exploded at the moments depicted.
* Besides the first one in the episode description, every mention of '''[[TheLittleShopThatWasntThereYesterday THE AWESOME STORE]]''' on the recap page for ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' episode [[Recap/TheAmazingWorldOfGumballS5E18TheConsole "The Console"]] has the name [[BoldInflation capitalized and bolded thusly]].
* Due to similar names and the amount of trivia most editors know here, all over the wiki there's instances where someone's name is followed with a (no, not that one) potholed to the work from which the character of the same name originates.
* The pages of the {{Sub Trope}}s for CameBackWrong all start with the same paragraph.
-->[[DeathIsDramatic The great love of the hero's life has died,]] and the hero simply [[LoveMakesYouCrazy cannot take the grief]]. Desperate to have his significant other returned to him, the character delves into [[{{Necromancy}} things better left unlearned]] and discovers a way to bring the loved one back.
-->Unfortunately, something [[GoneHorriblyWrong goes horribly awry]], causing them to [[CameBackWrong come back wrong]].
* The character index for ''VideoGame/{{Warframe}}'' describes the titular 'frames' introductions to the game based on their themes. (For example, [[TheGunslinger Mesa]] described as having "moseyed into town", [[GlassWeapon Gara]] "crystalizing," [[PyroManiac Ember]] "igniting," etc.)
* The summaries for the various ''Franchise/{{Splatoon}}'' pages each detail the Turf War gamemode: using gallons upon gallons of the player character's own body fluids to soak every last inch of surface visible. This will get potholed to ItMakesSenseInContext.
* The fact that ''Theatre/TwistedTheUntoldStoryOfARoyalVizier'' has a lot of Video Examples to its credit. (the video examples don't list the troper who added it's name, and that's a good thing for [[FlameWar one certain reason]]).
* The work page for ''Series/TheAvengers1960s'' has a running gag of pointing out how many of its stars have also appeared in ''Film/JamesBond'' films.
* Every main page for the ''Franchise/RatchetAndClank'' series will introduce the tropes with a slightly modified quote from whatever entry the page is for.
* '''Film/{{SPACEBALLS}}: THE BULLET ENTRY ON THIS PAGE!'''[[note]]The kids love this one.[[/note]] Every single TV Tropes page on Creator/MelBrooks' ''Franchise/StarWars'' parody begins with a line referencing the iconic [[TheMerch merchandising]] scene in the film, plus another such line for the images used, another such line for the main page's image caption, ''another'' such line for the note attached to that caption, and '''another''' such line for TheStinger. The only exception is the Video Examples page due to how such pages are automatically formatted, but the main page has that page covered with the final such line on its page just before the Video Examples module.
* The image quotes for the ''VideoGame/LikeADragon'' series all refer to legends. To wit:
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza1'': "The legend of the Dragon of Dojima begins here."
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza2'': "The legend of the Dragon of Dojima continues."
*** ''VideoGame/YakuzaKiwami2'': "The [[VideoGameRemake retold]] legend of the Dragon of Dojima continues."
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza3'': "[[HesBack The legend of the Dragon of Dojima begins anew.]]"
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza4'': "The legend of the Dragon of Dojima is [[BadassCrew no longer the only one]]."
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza5'': "The legend of the Dragon of Dojima [[AlternateWorldMap spreads across Japan]]."
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza6'': "[[GrandFinale The legend of the Dragon of Dojima ends.]]"
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza0'': "The legend of the Dragon of Dojima [[{{Prequel}} has not yet begun]]."
** ''VideoGame/YakuzaLikeADragon'': "[[ChangingOfTheGuard The legend of the Dragon of Rock Bottom begins here.]]"
** ''VideoGame/LikeADragonInfiniteWealth'': "The legends of two dragons [[SequelGoesForeign go global]]."
** ''VideoGame/RyuGaGotokuKenzan'': "The legend of Miyamoto Musashi takes a turn for the wild."
** ''VideoGame/LikeADragonIshin'': "The legend of Sakamoto Ryoma dawns."
** ''VideoGame/YakuzaDeadSouls'': "The legend of the Dragon of Dojima [[ZombieApocalypse rises from the grave]]."
** ''VideoGame/{{Judgment}}'': "[[SpinOff The legend of the Yagami Detective Agency unfolds.]]"
** ''VideoGame/LostJudgment'': "The legend of the Yagami Detective Agency [[DarkerAndEdgier takes a dark turn]]."
** ''VideoGame/FistOfTheNorthStarLostParadise'': "The legend of [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Hokuto Shinken]] unfolds like you've never seen it before."
* On the NightmareFuel [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15046601260A53602600 cleanup thread]], it's popular for tropers to introduce a page they've looked at with a parody of the work's theme song (especially for kids' shows) or an iconic line from it.
* Since Google's image-interpretation algorithms aren't creepily accurate ''just'' yet, one of the most common results in the "[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14977740810A74411400 Google search the above avatar]]" thread is the disappointingly imprecise "cartoon". It's usually [[MathematiciansAnswer technically accurate]], at least!
* The moments subpages on JustForFun/WorkName all contain a "meta-example about the mere fact that the work exists", in reference to a form of SugarWiki/GushingAboutShowsYouLike that occasionally appears on real SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments and SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments subpages. [[spoiler:Because it's a running gag, this extends even to the moments like ShockingMoments and NightmareFuel where it doesn't actually make a lot of sense and the joke is literally just the fact that it appears on ''every'' moments page.]]
* Several of the DarthWiki/CrappyTropeDefinitions are just the two words "[something] exists", potholed to Administrivia/PeopleSitOnChairs.
* SugarWiki/BetterThanItSounds:
** The description for each game in the [[spoiler: ''Franchise/StarCraft'']] series ends with a variation of "[[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Korea loves it]].", and every alternate description ends with "[[BlackComedy Billions die in the process]]".
** The description for each game in the [[spoiler: ''VideoGame/{{Warcraft}}'']] series is changed to be about [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical immigration and race wars]].
** The descriptions for [[spoiler: ''VideoGame/GhostReconBreakpoint'' and its associated [=DLCs=]]] all describe a specific plot character as an Elon Musk-{{Expy}}.
* Any time [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Princess Peach]] shows up in a page image the caption will contain a [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal long string of words beginning with the letter p.]]
* In the page of [[PlayingWithATrope playing]] [[PlayingWith/DoWrongRight with]] [[DoWrongRight do wrong right]], the examples has many examples (apart of the straight example), also most of them are (generally) [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] [[NonSequitur non sequiturs]].
* Anytime [[Advertising/BigBillHells Challenge Pissing]] is mentioned in an article, expect it to be followed with "THAT'S RIGHT! CHALLENGE PISSING!"
* Most entries for the mainline ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' games used to begin with JustForFun/TheOneWith and the game's unique gimmick or selling point following up on it right afterwards. This gag was later scrapped and scrubbed off.
* Earlier versions of the Music/HueyLewisAndTheNews trope page had references to ''Literature/AmericanPsycho''.
** As is the page for ''Music/TrebleCharger'', given that their most popular song is also titled "''American Psycho''" (a song so catchy most people don't even listen to the... well, you know).
* Pages on ''VideoGame/PrestigeTree'' and its mods always have "The tree (not shown: lower rows/rest of row 3 and lower rows)" in the caption if the whole tree's not shown in the image or "The tree (yes, in its entirety)" if it is. Several pages would also ask "Can you reach [current endgame]?", until that stopped being viable as several mods have been receiving updates to extend playtime.
* Pages for ''WesternAnimation/StrawberryShortcake'' content often replace the word "very" with "berry".
* The ''WebAnimation/HourOfPoop'' page refers to the archery tournament from "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall of Nottingham" as "the Ara Ara Turd" per Little John and its hosts' insistence.
* WhoWantsToLiveForever begins by telling you to put your hand down and repeatedly chastises you for keeping your hand throughout the article. It even extends to the analysis page.
* Every page for every entry in ''Film/TheNeverendingStory'' film series has its plot synopsis paragraph start with Bastian (Actor Name) with the actor's name changed in every page, in reference to how [[TheOtherDarrin nearly the entire cast was recast]] in every installment.
* In the article for ''{{Literature/House|OfLeaves}} of Leaves'', anytime the titular [[{{Bizarrchitecture}} house]] is mentioned, the word [[BiggerOnTheInside house]] will always be potholed to a trope related to the [[PsychologicalHorror house]], as a reference to how the [[RainbowSpeak house]] is always highlighted with blue text in the story itself.
* Creator/FlanneryOConnor and the word "realistic".
* ''WesternAnimation/DeadEndParanormalPark'' and its subpages are full of [[WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma run-on sentences]].
* Regarding the Trope Launch Pad:
** People questioning why certain parts of the website still refer to it as "YKTTW" (You Know That Thing Where...) over a decade after that name was discontinued.
** Poorly-written drafts getting bombed into oblivion, despite only needing five net bombs to discard them (which is the whole point of the bombs, any more than that is overkill) and the more sensible tropers repeatedly telling others to stop dogpiling.
** People commenting just to say that a very minor formatting change should be made and not doing it themselves, despite the fact that anyone can make quality-of-life changes to a TLP draft without question, as long as it improves the draft (i.e. "Rename [folder name] to [almost identical, but technically more commonly-used folder name]).
* People who make ATT reports about tropers having to be reminded to send notifiers ''before'' making the report, not after.
* Mentions of the NPC Dr. Desmond Bradford from ''TabletopGame/{{Rifts}}'' will inevitably note that he literally believes [[AGodAmI he is a god]], using basically those exact words.
* The subpages for ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'' all have a penchant of beginning with "''[=DuckTales=]'', woo-oo!" from the theme song, but replacing "Woo-oo!" with something related to the subpage, like "Who's who?" for the character page and "Boo-hoo" for the Tearjerker page.
* On Fanfic Recs pages, it's common for the opening line -- "Proof that [[SturgeonsLaw the remaining 10% is worth dying for]]." -- to replace "die" with some other bad thing or certain-death situation characteristic of the work in question.
* On SeaMonster, since the list of subtropes opens by saying that "there are many flavours of Sea Monster", each subtrope entry ends by saying what the associated sea monster tastes like.
* [[TheStinger And finally]], you should check out the DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment for a long running gag.
