So, as a counterpoint to the other thread, this is where we talk about entries that we find incredibly amusing and intelligent. To start us out, I present the entirety of Real Life, which had me cracking up when I first read it.

There’s a lot of good stuff on People Sit on Chairs, but my favourite is the X-Men example that feels the need to explain that wheelchairs are a type of chair.

Wiki wisdom for both aspiring crime fiction writers and characters in old-fashioned murder mysteries: a Tontine is "almost a subtrope of Inheritance Murder, saved only by the fact that murdering people over a tontine is technically optional".

"He betrayed the Staaarks" is not the only problem here.

The image on Unexpected Gameplay Change. I was wondering how you could illustrate something like that well. (Ironically I voted against it in the original IP thread.)

From the Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego? (1997) entry on That One Puzzle:

Beethoven’s level (1808) can be very hard to complete if one is hard of hearing or tone-deaf. There is a deaf-friendly version of the level, except it's not inherently obvious to unlock.

...So Beethoven would have a hard time playing the Beethoven level?

Unsound Effect

  • Manga such as Yu-Gi-Oh!, Bleach, and Shaman King often throw "DOOM" on dramatic panels. Even more dramatic panels might get "DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM".

From Inflating Body Gag

First reported in 2013, a hedgehog can suffer balloon syndrome, which causes them to inflate, thanks to trapped gas inside their bodies. It is believed to be usually caused by their lungs getting damaged and leaking air into their body, which collects in the areas of loose skin on their body that let them curl up. Now those Sonic the Hedgehog fetish fanart were Truth in Television after all...
While the concept of a body inflating because of gas leaking from the damaged lungs is kinda unnerving, the sheer Mood Whiplash that is the mention of Sonic-themed fetish art and claiming that these pieces were Truth in Television makes it funny.

The Owl House

  • Fandom Heresy: Do not say that you ship Luz and Amity with anyone other than each other. Adding people to the relationship is sometimes considered okay, but one without the other is a strict no-no. Of particular enragement is shipping Amity in particular with any male character even jokingly. Because of this, the fandom subreddit has had to institute stronger rules against bashing of these controversial ships multiple times, and fanart of them with anyone else can generally expect to receive comments ranging from hostility to mere confusion.

Sometimes a name is chosen against the theme of the show, which is still an example of this trope rather than a subversion because it is still using this trope but in an ironic manner.

...isn't that describing a subversion?

    Trevor: We don't even say it like that!
    Soldier 1: There's a moose loose aboot the hoose! [the two soldiers laugh]

    Soldier 1: Eh, what's that aboot?
    Trevor: [pulls a grenade launcher] FOR FUCK'S SAKES!!!
    Soldier 1: Jesus! [the two soldiers begin to run away] Get out of here!
    Trevor: It's a faint fucking accent!!! You can hardly tell!!!
    Soldier 1: C'mon! C'mon! Insurgent! Insurgent! We have contact! We have contact!

The note on this example from YMMV.The Simpsons S 8 E 14 The Itchy And Scratchy And Poochie Show:

  • Broken Base: Due to the scenes where hardcore Simpsons fans are portrayed through characters like the details-obsessed nerds and the extremely dismissive Comic Book Guy, some of the regular alt.tv.simpsons reviewers on Usenet were so offended that they practically rage-quit on the series, as suggested by newsgroup member Matthew Kurth's comments on this episode recap.note
