This image crashed in the Image Suggestion thread. Other ideas?

I don't think the suggested image needs the right half.

Too text-y. [tdown]

^ Isn't that a meta-example? The page explicitly says that only in-story examples qualify.

[up][up] Not quite illustrative without a caption [tdown].

I prefer OP with the right half removed, actually. I think while it's rather text-y, it's illustrative enough.

^ It's not an illustration though.

OP and variants might as well be the page quote, so [tdown].

5 is the best, but I'm not sure if I want to give it approval due to the explanation given in 6.

[tdown] to 7 because it's reaching and I didn't even see how it was supposed to be illustrating the trope at first.

I don't like any suggestions for various reasons.

[tdown] to the Kool-Aid Man one...it's more a poor artistic choice than anything.

That's about a goal, not a moral, so I don't think it fits.

It could go without panel 2.
