These arguments are reasonable enough, so I'll go back to my first assessment: the distinction between "regular" Parody and Affectionate Parody is one I don't think can be captured in an image without a lampshade of some sort. On top of that, most suggestions will require familiarity with the works to distinguish it from a Shout-Out.

Agreed with Morgenthaler. Definitely make this BUPKIS.

Is there enough consensus to make this BUPKIS? If not, bump for more opinions.

Well, if there's no way around it.

As Morgenthaler said in post #52, this is nigh-impossible to illustrate in a single image without a lampshade. So yeah, make this BUPKIS.

I've re-clocked this one to give more time on the discussion. I'm leaning toward calling this a BUPKIS case as well.

That's 6 tropers (including me) who think this should be BUPKIS. A couple more votes and we can run with it.
