^^ No, I don't. But I did think this ykttw could turn out to be or could evolve into or could work as -- Trivia bait (such baits might have their uses) or Trivia collection.

The question from 2014-05-29 still standing -- doesn't help. "Tropes that are imitation of real items" is nonsense of a formula, fitting which formula would force a trope to be trivial object before it manages to qualify. Is there anyone who knows of such an item as "We Will Not Use Photoshop in the Future"? Of what real item is it an imitation?

ThisIndexIsCopypasted, I think, has an allusive, mirrored problem. As if it has started as one idea, then collected entries, then got the slightly-off title it got, then the title itself started to go and put misaimed idea in minds of those who see it.

Anyways, a hard-to-ignore difference in making an imitation of something and copypasting something, is reference requirements.

I need a picture of Mona Lisa to ''copypaste'' it to my wallpaper.

But I don't even need to know what Mona Lisa painting looks like to make an ''imitation.'' I can take a thick pen and draw a dot-dot-stick-stick-circle, add some hair, ears, neck maybe and I'm done. The rest is up to my resourcefulness in finding people my authority over whom would be enough to make them see this masterpiece as Mona Lisa.
