''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8264126/1/You-Have-Got-to-Be-Kidding-Me You Have Got to Be Kidding Me!]]'' by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/3613997/Daughterof8 Daughterof8]] is a one-shot ''Literature/TrixieBelden'' fanfiction story.
As far as the fandom goes, it's fairly mundane, as it focuses on teenage romance without much character development, or [[OutOfCharacterMoment even heed to canonical characterization.]] What makes this fic notable is the unashamed but seemingly unintentional invoked tropes of RonTheDeathEater, {{Slutshaming}}, DieForOurShip, and MadonnaWhoreComplex, which are interspersed through a rather unimaginative fic that has nothing to offer in plot.

The Bob-Whites barely tolerate Dot's presence until she makes an offensive remark to Trixie, at which Jim delivers a harsh riposte rather than allow Trixie to stand up for herself. There's some arbitrary romance between Trixie and Jim, and then the story ends, before not before establishing, one last time, that [[{{Slutshaming}} Dot is a total slut.]]

!!''You Have Got to Be Kidding Me!'' provides examples of:
* AbhorrentAdmirer: One of Dot's [[SarcasmMode horrific crimes]] is that she actively pursues Jim, and later, Dan, neither of whom are interested in her.
** She's not unattractive at all, actually, the guys are just appalled by her forwardness.
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Dot's attraction to Dan, though her depiction suggests she would chase any guy.
* DoubleStandard: Dan is frequently depicted as a notorious skirt-chaser in fanfic, and other characters casually tease him about it, while here Dot is scorned and disdained for actively expressing interest in boys.
* FelonyMisdemeanor: One of the indicators of Dot's "antagonism" is her red bikini, in contrast to the other girls' one pieces.
* MadonnaWhoreComplex: Frequently, but especially when their bathing suits are mentioned: Trixie wears a "one-piece light blue bathing suit," while Dot is attired in a "red bikini." Really, the entire fic is extremely evocative of the MadonnaWhoreComplex with the strong condemnation of a young woman's sexuality.
* NoGuyWantsToBeChased: Could be a freakin' moral of this story. Both Jim and Dan are disgusted with Dot for her pursuit of them.
* SexIsEvil: Dot is obviously intended to be portrayed negatively due to her awareness of her sexuality.
* {{Slutshaming}}: BLATANTLY. Dot's sexuality is intended to be positively deplorable to the readers.
* VagueAge: How old is Dot supposed to be, anyway? She was canonically Jim's age, which implies she would be in college, but the text seems to infer she's in high school.
