This trope is disturbing because, not only does it have the longest "fanfic" section I've seen yet, the "fanfic" section is longer than film and literature put together. That just... says something about fanfic authors...

Why, oh why, oh why, does Know Thyself redirect to here? It's only even connected by a crappy pun, and the actual phrase "Know Thyself" should qualify for a trope itself, if not just redirect to Be Yourself, or some other Aesop.
