* FemaleGaze: Let's just say that female XCOM operatives sees the Archons in the same way as how male operatives sees the Vipers.
-->642. To all human female operatives: Even if our recently acquired first Archon operative, Azokh, had indeed retained "the important bits," I need to remind you that he is an ALIEN; for all you know his reproductive organs could be in his armpits. so please stop asking him about his "other staff."

-->416. Templars do not have [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Stands]].
-->416a. Yes, we are aware of the rumors of [REDACTED] trying to create a Stand.
-->416b. Random objects disappearing and moving about on their own on the ship is not the work of an enemy Stand. We have psionics among us now. Use common sense.
-->416c. For the love of god, please stop shouting [[Manga/DiamondIsUnbreakable "Killer Queen"]] every time Outrider detonates a car. It defeats the purpose of concealment.
--->''But what if all of this, even your use of psionics as an explanation, is the work of an Enemy Stand? - Anonymous''
-->416d. Psionic clones are not Stands, or [[Manga/{{Naruto}} shadow-clones]], or whatever other dumb reference it is that you're trying to make. Stop referring to them as such.
-->417. [[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance "Nanomachines, son"]] is not a valid description of the Spectre in after-action reports.

-->360. [[Anime/StrikeWitches Small teenage girls with quad-box rocket launchers]] are not adequate UFO defence.
-->360a. [[Anime/GirlsUndPanzer Small teenage girls in a Tiger]] are not adequate landing defences
-->360b. [[VideoGame/KantaiCollection Small teenage girls with torpedoes]] are a bad idea altogether.

Misuse will be deleted or moved to another trope when applicable. Administrivia.Zero Context Examples will be removed or commented out depending on the amount of context within the entry. Also, I Ate What is not a character trope.

-->103a. “She would if I would.” is not a valid reason.
-->103b. While
Dr. Shen Vahlen and the Commander appreciate the fact that the Operatives thought to give them gifts, matching swimwear is forbidden from making anything man portable which has a barrel large enough probably the last thing they want to fit his head.see right now.
