Gentleman Troper!

Not particularly, no.
11 is OK. This is quite the complex trope, so I doubt we can find something really good.
11 with the caption works well enough for me.
'No image' is a lot better than 11.

I like 11. It has my vote.
"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."
11 is adequate, which makes it the best suggestion so far. I'll check the webcomics example list to see if there are any candidates there.
Edit: Only one I found there was this from The Order of the Stick
and this from Schlock Mercenary. 11 is still better than those, in my opinion.

I believe those Webcomics examples have been suggested in the previous thread, but did not get enough support.
We seem to have reached enough consensus for 11, though, so I've put it up and adjusted the tag accordingly.
How is 11 not a JAFAAC?
No, the other one.
Because the caption doesn't make sense without the image?

And because it's a picture/caption combo that's playing around with the trope, instead of a picture that supposedly is an actual example of the trope.
"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."
^^^ It's not. Like, at all. "JAFAAC" means "must be familiar with source (or be told so, by the caption) to know that the character in the picture is an example"... not "image requires caption to illustrate trope", which isn't really a strike against a page image.
v I like that idea, but the whole sentence should be potholed.

A JAFAAC image is when you need background knowledge of the work example to understand the trope. This is certainly not a "work example" and it demonstrates the trope with such combination. Perhaps potholing the line "her trademark blue sweater" to Blatant Lies might make it more obvious?
If it counts for anything I don't understand the picture of a man with a book wearing her trademark blue sweater. It's confusing and doesn't help me understand Unreliable Narrator.
It's Self Demonstration, plain and simple. And on that note, it might be a good idea to pothole the caption with that instead of or in conjunction with Blatant Lies.
Consensus is strongly in favour of 11, and the only issue is which part of the caption to pothole to Blatant Lies. I would just pothole "her trademark blue sweater" personally.

Do it.
"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."
No, the other one.
Yup.

Pothole added and tagd adjusted; requesting closure now.

Anyone else for 11 and its caption, otherwise?
