** After Erin takes Kratos' (from ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'') advice and try to destroy her friend's UsefulNotes/XBox360 and almost seriously harming another in the process, she gets thrown out of their house. [[http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/comics/critical-miss/9527-Consensus She then decides to get drunk,]] and comments that "This is going to look '''terrible''' on my Website/TVTropes page."

* [[http://www.conservapedia.com/TV_Tropes Conservapedia]] has a page on TV Tropes, complaining about its creator Andrew Schafly being mocked, "bloat" stemming from the tropers being "obsessed with television shows, such as the vacuous occult teen drama ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer''" and "a non fiction educational wiki [being] shoe-horned into TV Tropes as a way for the liberal editors to criticize it" (possibly referring to our work page on Conservapedia, long since deleted.)

It's no surprise that the TV Tropes Wiki is one of the most popular websites on the Internet,[[note]]([[https://www.similarweb.com/website/tvtropes.org as of the last time we checked, we're 1,524th on Similarweb]])[[/note]] and, equally, it's no surprise that other webpages want to give us a ShoutOut, or that we would want to return the favor by shouting back to the pages that reference us.

** Near the end of "[[https://www.thedailybeast.com/nikki-haley-is-starting-to-look-like-a-real-threat-to-trump Nikki Haley Is Starting to Look Like a Real Threat to Trump]]", he discusses how the former US ambassador to the UsefulNotes/UnitedNations has an uphill undertaking to clear out the rest of the 2024 Republican presidental primary field, much less take on Trump himself, linking to FinalBoss.

In it, he talks about how Trump's brand of shock-jock politics may be wearing out its welcome, and how he took on a fresh young face in Kari Lake[[note]], who would go on to lose her bid for Governor of UsefulNotes/{{Arizona}} in 2022,[[/note]] in an attempt to lend some rejuvenation to his flagging brand.

* In [[http://get-medieval.livejournal.com/393251.html one of the author's comments]] during the commentary rerun of ''Webcomic/GetMedieval'' Irony-chan said in regard to Film/BillAndTed appearing as knights in her story:

* On ''WebVideo/{{Unraveled}}'', Brian [[https://youtu.be/DCEewyIE_0c?t=234 discusses]] the purpose of art in his call for updating ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'''s music:

* Scans_daily mentions us a lot, especially in the comments (usually a link, accompanied by LOTS of warnings about life-ruining side effects.)

* A brief one in book five of Charles Stross's ''Literature/TheLaundryFiles'', ''The Rhesus Chart''. A mathematician who was given a certain line of calculations to visualize wakes up to find himself unusually photosensitive, possessed of superhuman reflexes and mind-warping abilities, invisible in the mirror...and thirsty for blood. Naturally, his reaction after calming down from a rather understandable freakout is to check Wikipedia and [=TVTropes=] for information on vampires.

** Their pages on [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_laughter Evil laughter]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manic_Pixie_Dream_Girl Manic Pixie Dream Girl]] and more, reference [[WeAreNotAloneIndex our own pages]] on them.

* The Creator/{{Netflix}} special ''Attack of the Hollywood Clichés'' is essentially a review of various TV Tropes articles such as the WireDilemma, CowboyCop, FatalFamilyPhoto, MirrorScare, RedRightHand, ManicPixieDreamGirl, and TheSmurfettePrinciple with commentary from various Hollywood actors, directors, and movie critics. As the title indicates, it takes a decidedly more hostile view on the tropes it discusses than TV Tropes itself does, often criticizing them from an {{Anvilicious}} left-wing perspective. On this website, the more neutral view that Administrivia/TropesAreTools predominates.
