That used to be the image for the page, back when it was called Xen Syndrome.
I have a message from another time...Yeah, and it was removed for being a bad image even before the trope was renamed. I still don't like it; I don't see how kissing an alien nutsack has anything to do with the trope at hand.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!It's a retort to the guy complaining about the game's sudden drop in enjoyability.
I think it's a perfectly good image.
Pinball cleanup threadSome of the text hints at the trope, but nothing of the image does. It seems to refer more to some kind of Take That! than the trope, honestly.

Check out my fanfiction!I didn't like that pic back when the trope was under the old name and I'm still not crazy about it.
Also, it's debatable whether Xen is an example of this trope in the first place. So the image may be Not An Example.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!Clock is set.
Clock's up; locking for inactivity. No action is to be taken based on this thread.
Saw this image◊ from a webcomic panel and figured it'd be a good fit; seems to fit the trope perfect and even references the original Trope Namer.
Caption at your own leisure; I can't think of anything good.
Source is this page◊. It's a webcomic called "How to Play", but there's currently not a page for that. This comic also has the image for Black Mesa Commute, however, and that one's linked to Sequential Art since it's made by the same person.
