Pulled for lolcattiness.
Rhymes with "Protracted."I was thinking of Dahl's The Twits, but I'm having an hard time finding the illustrations on the internet... I'll try some more. :|
"We are not a stuffy encyclopedic wiki. We're a buttload more informal".I imagine that would require a big collage to demonstrate.
God what a name... seriously wtf I was thinking it would have something to do with an actual Gaslight "the use of flammable gas such as natural gas as a light source".....
Anyway umm The whole There are four lights thing from Startrek TNG?
Sparkling and glittering! Jan-Ken-Pon!That's a different trope...I remember using that as a page pic a few months back.
I was thinking of two pictures in particular, to keep it short; namely the one with Mr.Twit fixing the wife's cane and the one in which she looks confused walking alongside the husband with the long cane, then covering the "guess you're getting crazy" part with the caption. I might have to scan them from the book myself, but I won't be able to do so before tomorrow. Internet is still failing me at the moment.
"We are not a stuffy encyclopedic wiki. We're a buttload more informal".We can do a little reading... I like it, it nails the trope.
"We are not a stuffy encyclopedic wiki. We're a buttload more informal".I like the xkcd. Maybe move the first frame above the second to allow it to be a bit wider and easier to read, although it's legible now.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.Perfect.
I wouldn't say "perfect", but the xkcd is adequate. If we can't find anything better, I'm okay with it.
Rhymes with "Protracted."I got a semi-spoiler from a video game I can whip up.
It's from 5 days a stranger. In game there are two paintings. One is a of a landscape and the other is of a person. During the course of events the portrait grows older and the a shadow apears in the landscape. Your character doesn't take note of either, so it's meant for the player to notice.
Please.Homestuck has some scenes of Bro Flash Stepping moving around his Creepy Puppet. They are gifs, but can easily be chopped into separate frames.

The XKCD one works.
Also, why are the lolcats being pulled?
Anyone who assigns themselves loads of character tropes is someone to be worried about.Most of the time they don't illustrate the tropes well, and in general we try to shy away from using Memetic Mutation images if better options are available.
Reaction Image RepositoryMeme images are now an insta-pull criteria.
I'm not crazy about the Homestuck pics, at all.

That xkcd image is magnificent.
The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.What's so good about it? It's almost all text.

Because the only alternatives we've seen would require massive collages to do.
Infinite Tree: an experimental story3 panels with wall of text is better than 3 or 4 frame collage? Ok then.
How small would the smallest possible version of that Homestuck pic you posted be? If you can get it at a decent size, I'd support it.
Infinite Tree: an experimental storyLike plenum said, we can do a little reading. It's not especially text-heavy and it works.
The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.The textiness of the XKCD pic doesn't bother me in the least.
4 frame
Vertically: 4 frame (too huge), 3a, 3b, 2 frames.

Standing kill order on Lolcat images
So how picturable is this one?
An Ear Worm is like a Rickroll: It is never going to give you up.
