Lost in Space
Opening with concurrence. Kill this.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
When I saw the title I thought of that moment in films where a guy opens several wine/beer barrels and uses the ensuing spilling to his advantage in combat (seen in Shrek and Pirates of the Caribbean: Stranger Tides). Could be worth revamping this trope into that.
"All you Fascists bound to lose."
Honestly, you'd probably be better off taking that to YKTTW.
I dont know I could see this as Big event and food/drink gets spilled which more often goes in the lap type thing such as the Top Gun Flyby or Raidou Kuzunoha Vs King Abaddon where Gotou goes after a bug and knocks over some toast onto Narumi lap, butter side down.
Kill it and start over. Yes, there are tropes related to the spilling of drinks. This is not one of them.
No, the other one.
Needs to go the phoenix route to achieve tropabilty.

I've looked into its YKTTW archive and I got to agree. Way, way premature launch and the page is not worth saving — the name is not particularly amazing or anything. Any new proposals can start right from the scratch — this would be only distracting.
Zzzzzzzzzz
Kill it. There are a couple of tropes hiding in it (spilling a drink on someone as "flirtation", spilling a drink as revenge/punishment, repeated spilling of drinks as comedy) but "People spill drinks" is not one.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
I'd call that a consensus. It's on the cutlist; Madrugada, I leave the rest to you.
Don't forget the wicks and the discussion page.

Wicks are gone, but what do you want me to do with the discussion page?
Add the note that the cut was per TRS request.

Chair Man
I think what's more tropeworthy is that the drink spills over someone, or a supposedly important object, as a gag.
MAX POWER KILL JEEEEEEEEWWWWW
Completed thread; thus, closing.

This is one of the most clear-cut cases of People Sit On Chairs I've ever seen. It's just a list of characters spilling drinks. No story implications, no meaning, no trope. If you look at the original YKTTW, you'll notice that it was launched over objections along these lines as well. The sooner we get this thing cut, the better.
