Suggestion: Damn You Muscle Memory

Just found this page which lets you label a short or wide key, might be fun to have a caption contest. All I could think of was "Oops!" or "Nooooooo!"

That looks more like it could be an image for this YKTTW discussion than this trope, which is about reflexively doing something because you used to how it worked before it had been changed.

I am not clear what part of the linked site is being proposed for image.

He means creating an image using that item to generate a key on a keyboard that shouldn't be there.

For example:

As I've said, those fit more under this YKTTW discussion, not this trope.

This trope's about reflexively doing stuff despite the fact that it works differently because you're used to the way it originally works, not unwanted buttons placed in a mundane spot as to be easier to accidentally press.

Yes, they may work better on that YKTTW. But it already has an image, this is not a jigsaw puzzle, and you have surely seen enough Duplicate Image threads to know "A picture is worth a thousand words".

That doesn't make my point about it not working on this page mute.

It has to demonstrate the trope properly in order for it to be considered a good image for the page.

Why do you think "Does not illustrate" is a possible choice to choose from as the "reason for listing"?

Karjam's right. OP's suggestion is unrelated to the trope.

probably 2 screenshots from 2 installments of a fighting game where a character doing an attack using the infamous "quarter circle forward <Punch>" command where it does an attack on the first and does a different attack on the second.

though an image supporting the current quote would work too.

Probably with the screenshot of the button commands to accommodate it (it has to be the same button combination, and, preferably, the same character from separate installments).

Would this comic work, maybe?

It might work with the second and third panels; we can't use the entire thing without permission, and it would be too big at wiki size to make a good pic.

That is great: Here are the second and third panels at wiki size.

It's gonna need a caption I think.

"No! I meant to hit X!"

The pic is good; I got nuthin' on a caption right now.

Awesome.

I like the caption in 15.

13 + 15 is fine as a pic/caption combination here.

15 works well enough for me; anyone else?

15 looks good to me.

Good enough. 13+15 is up, potholed, and tagged. Locking up.
