Honestly, I can't even tell what the trope is supposed to be in the first place.

It's about the subversion of Reality Ensues, apparently.

It certainly doesn't look that way from the examples, which seem to have no common theme except for a lot of overlap with Cuckoo Nest. And the description is only semi-coherent.

In fact, if I hadn't seen this thread, I would have taken it to the premature YKTTW launch thread.

Sigh... It's when Reality Ensues an then it goes back to Fantasy. It was mine and it had five hats for like a week and a half. If you have a problem with the examples, then bring them up on the discussion page or something.

Isn't that simply Administrivia? It tells you have to format a trope/title.

More akin to Just for Fun. Please see the The Archive of Bellicose Lexicon Entities.

It was on the Just for Fun index, which is the only place it really fits. I think that along with the FORKS Badge, or whatever that page is titled, it should be either cut or redirected to TABLE since that's what happened to the actual SPOON page.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

It's FORK Badge. Personally, I am not awerse at keeping it just as an archive sort of page.

[up][up][up] If you look through the pages, the main thing that connects them is the fact that they are all indexed to FAQ. Half the pages on FAQ are in Admin. So I don't see why FAQ isn't just it's own index connected to Admin.

Start with related trope's indexes (indices). Finagle's Law for example is on My Car Hates Me. That can apply to this trope.

Ok, this one's a little boggling. Genres needs an index! :)

[up][up]How so? It is already on the main Tropes index and has been for quite some time.
